Gah!

I don't have all that much to say about the Canadiens' 3-2 win to bring the series back to Montreal knotted at a game apiece. Carey Price was in fine form, stopping 29 shots. Tyler Toffoli extended his point streak to eight games. The Golden Knights missed some decent chances. Read a damn AP recap if you want to know about the game. Instead, let's stare deeply into the eyes of returning Habs defenseman Jeff Petry.

Petry has been out a week and a half with an undisclosed "upper-body injury," revealed as multiple dislocated fingers on his left hand. His return to action was a bit of a surprise, as he didn't take part in line rushes in warm-ups, and wasn't listed on the lineup the team tweeted out 20 minutes before puck drop. But there he was, doing Jeff Petry things, playing 20-plus minutes, taking two shots, blocking two shots, and recording an assist. (Perhaps most importantly, Montreal's suspect third D pairing was able to play third-pairing minutes.) "We got a bounce" from Petry's return, said Corey Perry.

But the eyes. What's up with the eyes.

There was a little confusion over why Petry looked like the Twitter avatar of a guy who's getting really into cryptocurrency, with the Montreal Gazette chalking it up to the dreaded conjunctivitis. Fans speculated that it might be a side effect of anti-inflammatory drugs Petry was taking for his fingers. But Petry's wife Julie, in an Instagram story posted during the game, denied it was other of those, and not a hangover either.

OK I looked it up and it's just a fancy way of saying broken blood vessels in the eyes, which, I KNOW THAT JULIE. That does not help! It's just as helpful as Carey Price, when asked just what the fuck is up with Petry's eyes, replied, "He's scary-looking."

Julie did say to keep the memes coming, and indeed, they're pretty good. I'm not gonna do that blog thing where I embed a bunch of memes, you're online, you know how to find them. This was cute though:
