It’s been, one week since you looked at me...

Cocked your head to the side and said I'm angry

 

[vokiel]

Oh we have so much time to discuss the line up

Lets not play Lindgren... Anymore.

 

[Prairie Habs]

So Ovy will be suspended for this game correct?

 

[CaptnNemo]

So Ovy will be suspended for this game correct?

That's true hey!? Think he will be for sure if the rule didn't change.. Good stuff for sure!

 

[MarkovsKnee]

So Ovy will be suspended for this game correct?

Yes, no Ovechkin.

I wonder if Drouin is back for this one?

 

[Habssince89]

Lots of things in our favour for this one...

No OV, Drouin and/or Gallagher back, rest for the team, return adjustment over for Armia.

If both are back:
Tatar-Danault-Gallagher
Domi-Suzuki-Kovi
Drouin-KK-Armia
Poehling-Thompson-Lehkonen

 

[mattyboy]

Yes, no Ovechkin.

I wonder if Drouin is back for this one?

according to Renaud Lavoie: "don't expect drouin or byron back right after break. More work to be done..."

 

[26Mats]

So Ovy will be suspended for this game correct?

Nice! Forgot about that.

Nice that teams like to play our backups against us and that Ovi looked at the schedule and determined that getting a week off was worth not being able to play the game against us!

 

[26Mats]

according to Renaud Lavoie: "don't expect drouin or byron back right after break. More work to be done..."

What date did he say that?

Also, with Gallagher, there's no way to know how long it will take Gallagher to recover from his concussion.

Tatar-Danault-Gallagher
Domi-Suzuki-Kovi
Drouin-KK-Armia
Poehling-Thompson-Lehkonen

That's actually a good looking line up... All four lines..

I like your 4th line but would love to see Danault double shift on that line and Suzuki take 1 or two with the top line.

Realisticly domi plays centre and kovi plays left wing.

 

[mattyboy]

Yesterday. It's his last tweet.

 

[26Mats]

Yesterday. It's his last tweet.

Well we were good for the first 20 games before Drouin and Byron went down.

If Gallagher's back, we'll see if Kovalchuk can replace both Drouin and say an emerged Poehling can replace Byron.

Tatar Danault Gallagher
Kovalchuk Domi Suzuki
Lehkonen Kotkaniemi Armia
Poehling Thompson Cousins

 

[mitchmagic]

I hope everyone is back because I am going to this game.

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

idk what's nice about people saying that Ovy missing the match will be nice.
Indeed the best goal scorer in nhl history will be missing. 1 of the reason why i was waiting for this match.

Everything to help the habs eh

It says a lot about the loser mentality that's has grown and permeated since Bergevin came in, that some people feel it's good that an opposing star player is missing instead of wanting to beat the best when they are at their best.

Thanks, now the song is stuck in my head lol

It’s a fun song. You’re welcome

Man people just dont see how great he is. It's always great to watch him play.
