I have not yet updated the Project C’est Something NIce main page, but do yourself a favour and click through to learn the secret truth underlying the Canadiens’ offensive strategy. Thanks everybody for all your submissions – I think we’ve got to be getting close […] …only instead of dollars, I’m begging for jokes.
