Pre-Game Talk: Buffalo @ Montreal - Tuesday, March 19th @ 7:30pm

[Marc the Habs Fan]

There's no excuse why we shouldn't come out of this week with 6 points. Can't let the Islanders get away with another game and Buffalo sucks, plus we play them at home twice.

I would take 2-1 this week...

If we win all 3 games, that would be an 8 game winning streak, which is hard to do. Hasn't happened since late in the 2005-06 season.

 

[MSLs absurd thighs]

With two out of three this week, we come into next week with 46 points is 30 games. The projected needed amount of points to make the playoffs is around 55.

I'd be ok with 2 in 3.

God, has Miller ever turned into one of the most annoying whiny *****es in the league...

He really has, but what was the latest complaint/comment?

I still remember him complaining about Saku being in his crease or some garbage. I was on his side about the Lucic thing, but man he really does constantly have some complaint to deliver to the media. I thought Miller time was supposed to be fun...

 

[start winnin]

I hope you guys win tomorrow. PLEASE AID OUR TANK!

You should get Jones over Mac Kinnon.

You should get Jones over Mac Kinnon.

Mac Klingon?

 

[Lshap]

Mac Klingon?

I'd love to get Mac Klingon, but I hear he only fights with honour and therefore would be useless in the NHL. Also thought I heard him say, "Today is a good day to dive". But I could have been mistaken...

He complained about his teammate Kaleta, who said it was tough for him to watch his team lose while being scratches, that he felt powerless, etc...

Basically bashed a teammate for saying the right things. Saying he was overdramatic, etc...

Ya, after posting that, did a little research into that and my take on it was that the reporters fed Miller a quote from Kaleta that he never said, prompting Miller to act like he's the moral police. A bit of **** stirring by the media to create that, but I think both of them were off in terms of spouting to the media. Kaleta should just suck it up and not go overboard with his bashing of the team (given he hasn't been much help) and Miller should have been less pedantic.

Wonder what is going on through Karbela's head at this point. Dude is being benched in favor of a call up, sure the call up is a former first rounder that is much bigger and all but still must hurt.

I want Blunden instead of White

Habs are going to win this one since I won't have returned to Quebec yet. No losses yet since my western trip began!

Kaberle is redundant in this line up. Habs need big, stay at home types, not soft, bad defensive, easy to play against Dmen

Never realized how well Carey does against the Sabres:

24GP (10-8-6): 0.935% with a 2.00GAA and 0 shutouts

You shouldn't slag your teammates in public. As for Kaleta, who brought it on himself, would the Sabres have won if he hadn't been sidelined? I doubt it.

There are many reasons for our success this year, but one of the big ones is that we are winning against the teams that we should beat. How many years did we have where we would beat the Bruins then lose to the panthers? This year we've scraped out wins and haven't played down to our opponents level as much as years past. It hasn't always been pretty, and they haven't always been dominant wins, but they have found ways to get the W.

Hopefully they take advantage of the mess in Buffalo and come out firing. Would love to see another blowout.

He might also cause a lot of tension with his human teammates.
