After last night....

Knights 9
Habs 1

 

[Nevada Jones]

Time to give Charlie Lindgren his first NHL loss!

 

[Bart9349]

Good chance to get a point or two.

This would be a fine way to end a challenging road trip, especially playing with a 3B goalie.

 

[Bee Holder]

Best of luck to you knights! Can't wait to see the oldest franchise battle the youngest one. I will obviously root for the Habs tho, and I hope you guys aren't too tired after yesterday. I expect a good game tonight!

 

[LookAtThosePepperoni]

When do you guys expect one of Fleury/Subban/Dansk back?

Someone's coming back Friday because Ferguson is returning to Kamloops.

I'm guessing Dansk. It could be Fleury, but I haven't heard anything about him skating and he's supposed to be a week after he gets on the ice. Subban's still three weeks into a 4 week injury.

 

[Nevada Jones]

Dylan Ferguson is expected to be returned to Kamloops for their games this weekend, so somebody must be coming back likely in time for Friday's game. My best guess is Dansk, since there was never given a timeline (that I saw) for his return. Fleury reportedly hasn't been skating yet, and Subban was estimated to be out about a month when he got hurt, and I'm guessing he might be a week away yet or so.

But maybe we'll be surprised, and Flower will show up in net against the Jets Friday, although I'm sure that's just really wishful thinking.

Quicker fingers...you win!

Lets go Knights, lets battle hard and beat the habs, should be a fun game and yay no appointments so I can watch the whole game.

Agreed. Go Knights!

Happy that someone (Dansk) is coming back soon. Hoping that your team can stay healthy, won't lie, I thought your team would be in the bottom and boring, but so far, the Habs are more boring to watch. I was pleasantly surprised, guess some of you were as well. Here's to a great game (injury free of course).

The banger and the dangler are back!

Yeah?

Neither are on my core list. Either could be traded tomorrow and I wouldn't be in the least concerned.

I think my TV reception of the games must be different.

I liked Hunt on the blue line. He energized his D-partners (Collin, for example).

Carrier had a likable toughness. Plus, it's his Quebec homecoming.

 

[BattleBorn]

I feel like we've spent 5 minutes in faceoff prep already.

 

[Nevada Jones]

Let's not start with the penalties already.

 

[BattleBorn]

Meh, that was a little weak for a penalty.

 

[Bart9349]

This week a lot of Canadians are wearing a red poppy (to commemorate the sacrifices of the Armed forces, initially from WWI but now from all wars).

One species of the poppy is used as a source of opium. Hopefully, VGK will stay clear of its soporific (causing drowsiness) effect.

 

[Nevada Jones]

Been wondering about the poppies, thanks!

 

[Bart9349]

Lagace played tough against first PP.

 

[VanIslander]

I liked Hunt on the blue line. He energized his D-partners (Collin, for example).

Hard to get excited about a 5'9 blueliner who doesn't hit, is pushing 30 years old, was undrafted, and was a free agent signing, then waived and is a Vegas free agent signing on a Knights blueline with MUCH better prospects and better present performers.

Hunt is the odd man out who fills a gap like a temporary dental implant.

May the $ 600,000 contract expire at season's end and それじゃ(that's goodbye in Japanese).

 

[BattleBorn]

Quick game so far.

 

[Nevada Jones]

Ugh.
