Episode 10: Game 10, October 23

20,000 seats. And tonight, Sainte-Catherine walks in without its violinist. No captain. Just the alternates... and something to prove.
The Windy Outfit. Charcoal suits, pinstripes — dressed like bankers. But make no mistake: this is a robbery they're planning.
Look at that bench. No C anywhere. 17 and 8 carry the room tonight — and one of them just got back from the injured list.
4:23 — their young prince. Snap shot, top corner. 1-0, the Outfit. The cathedral ROARS. And the kid in net never even saw it.
But this room does not panic. 17:29 — 71. Wrist shot. 1-1. The leadership group just sent its first memo.
2nd period. Short-handed. 71 — AGAIN. 2-1, Sainte-Catherine. The man has 2 goals and the Outfit has a problem.
18:26 — 21 jumps into the rush. 3-1. 20,000 people... and you can hear the ice think.
20 saves. Whatever these thugs threw at the kid tonight, he turned it away. Some nights the goalie carries the team.
And the empty net closes it at 4 to 1. No captain. No problem. And the cardiologist? Never got a call. Sunday, the prairies. Bring a parka.
