Pre-Game Talk: Habs heading on 401 West

[peate]

Big game on National TV. Leafs full of themselves, and with reason. How fun would it be to go into their building and throw them a curve ball. This is one time I wouldn't mind if we won. Would be worth the 2 points just for the reactions from Toronto.

Must loose game

 

[CristianoRonaldo]

I don't care about beating the leafs, we need to lose.

 

[DramaticGloveSave]

I'll be at this game with a Leaf fan buddy, so I'll be hoping for a W.

 

[Uncle Gary]

Losing this game is more important than worrying about the Leafs.

isn't everything more important than worrying about the leafs ?

Losing this game is more important than worrying about the Leafs.

They made the playoffs, we didn’t. They already won. Draft status is much more important for a team that desperately needs to find talent.

 

[WeThreeKings]

I want this team to lose every remaining game in the season in humiliating fashion. f*** off, Molson.

 

[Censored Toad]

I'm greedy, I want beer
therefore I want the habs to win ( I have a bet) however if we lose that is OK too!

Leafs have matched up very well against us. It helps that our lineup is more mobile and quicker, without Plekanec, injured Weber, Schlemko, etc... But, Leafs should beat us. Only thing I'm wondering is if will be a blowout or a close game.

 

[Klinton]

Plekanec will score 3 goals for the Habs! You heard it hear first.

 

[Kudo Shinichi]

We have 2 games remaining against the leafs. I want to win one of them

I want to win none, zero, nada.

Who cares about the Leafs. Bum shoulder Mathews and an awful top 4 defence. They will get bounced early.

They will get bounced in the second round because they will have to play Tampa.

Boston is better too assuming everyone is healthy.

Good. 2 early 2nds, a mid to late 2nd and a late 2nd. That is solid.

 

[ahmedou]

Plecky respeck this Tank-Inc. Its a huge tradition for us. Don't give us two useless points.

 

[WeThreeKings]

Boston is better too assuming everyone is healthy.

Don't think so. We will see.

 

[Le Tricolore]

I bet it goes to a shootout and Plekanec scores the winner.

 

[le_sean]

Don't think so. We will see.

Maybe not on paper but the Leafs run and gun style typically doesn’t work in the playoffs. Games are closer, slower and more physical. I think Bergeron makes Mathews look silly. Leafs can’t match up defensively against that line either.

 

[donghabs98]

Knowing the Habs they will play hard tomorrow and win this. I just have that feeling.

 

[peate]

We're not gonna lose all of our remaining games and Arizona, Buffalo and Vancouver all have bigger tanks. This is a great opportunity to showcase our rookies and fool the Leafs on Saturday night.

 

[Pyrophorus]

I bet it goes to a shootout and Plekanec scores the winner.

Unless he scores 2 or 3, you're expecting this to go 10 rounds?

Won 7/8 against them, and 2/3 this season was without Matthews.
