WHY WILL AN OFF-DAY IN THE MIDST OF A PLAYOFF RACE ALWAYS BRING OUT AN 'ALLEGED CONTROVERSY' STORY IN SOME PARTS OF THE MONTREAL MEDIA? One veteran columnist suggests the Habs HAVE TO name a captain before they win the Cup! Love that backhanded stab at positive thinking, but isn't the current hot streak evidence they DON'T NEED A CAPTAIN RIGHT NOW? Why put any more pressure no Markov, Gionta or Cammalleri?

HOW HIGH WILL THE HABS CLIMB IN THE PLAYOFF SEEDINGS? High enough to avoid Ovechkin in the Opening Round, though I don't think Habs fans have any fears about knocking off the Capitals. How about high enough to have homeice advantage over The Artist!

HOW WILL TIGER DO AT THE MASTERS? Not nearly as well as Elin will in divorce court if Tiger "strays off the fairway" again, if you get my drift!

How will we know if Tiger's failing at his rehab? If he asks female fans in the gallery: "Does this green jacket make me look hot?!"

Don't you love Clara Hughes' idea of a dream vacation? After the necessity of summer leg-training all these years, she just wants to rest---her legs anyway. She'll be paddling across Great Slave Lake in Canada's great north once the ice is off.

Should it surprise you that extraordinary people do extordinary things on their vacations? Olympic skier Manuel Osborne-Paradis tells me he's got a Mexican surf paradise booked after finishing up his equipment testing in Europe this week.

Why did President Obama offer supportive comment on how Tiger will do at the Masters? Perhaps sex addiction will be covered in the new US Healthcare proposals.

Do Habs' eastern rivals fear The Phantom? Former Phantom of the Opera tenor Joe Kaiser wrote me after my last set of stupid questions, wondering why he was wearing a Ducks jersey in Anaheim while singing the anthem. Turns out Joe was forced into it.

Now he's on a quest to sing at every NHL arena but the Rangers discreetly forced him to miss Tuesday's Habs game, in favor of singing at Thursday night's Rangers-Blues game. Turns out Nos Glorieux are 14-4 when the Phantom is belting out Oh Canada.
