Pre-Game Talk: 2014-15 Playoffs - ECSF: Montreal Canadiens vs Tampa Bay Lightning

[Boltswin]

Over the 2 series my choice would be Bishop, he only keeps getting better and last night he reminded me of Martin Brodeur circa playoffs 2012, and that's one huge compliment there. His puck handling skills both derailed Montréal's forecheck and helped his teammates on the breakout. I think Cooper after watching some tape encouraged Bishop to be more aggressive and it fits our system to a tee. I really really hope it's now part of our game plan.

The problem is when it doesn't work. Sometimes Bish is not decisive enough when he plays the puck, and it gives up scoring chances/ goals. It is at its best when the D are communicating with him. Yell at him to play it or leave it for them etc

The problem with the Habs is they have too many 'P' players.

Pacioretty
Plekanec
Price
Parenteau
Prust
Petry
Pateryn

Ain't nobody got time for dat.

Funny

Callahan said the problem started Monday with a stomachache. The pain worsened, and that night he had surgery to remove his appendix. He had to watch Tuesday’s series-clinching win over Montreal at home.

“It was a tough thing to do, but they made it easy on me…” Callahan said. “A couple times I jumped around a little bit too much, I think.”
