I honestly don't see the point of splitting starts in a shortened season. Let Price get going before the playoffs. We already know how playoff Jake Allen goes.

 

[The Real Timo]

I am going on a limb and will say that I don't have a good feeling about this one. Habs barely squeaked past Ottawa. Like barely. This isn't going to be ottawa. Peg is solid. All around. Habs... well... they are not. So hmmm... My brain says - no. My heart says - ... meh. I know one thing for sure - not making chicken wings tonight.

PP looked good against Sens. We need that to start being relevant for us on a game to game basis.

Need 3 pts vs Jets. Let's start with 2 points tonight.

Its my birthday, hopefully I get some more to celebrate !

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Does that mean Allen is the starter or am I confusing with first off the ice?

Probably means Price is playing. First off the ice is the tell in pre-game skates. If Allen is getting some work done he's likely not playing.

The more practice with the new coaches the better this team will become as long as the goaltending holds up.

Thats unfortunate.

Good. Don’t let Carey think he has the job just because.

@Runner77 Awesome GDT! Legit laughed, especially at the Danault-Gallagher-Ducharme conversation. Thank you.

Will be off work at 8pm again tonight, but my boss told me I can put hockey on one of my two computer screens from now on, win!

GHG!

It probably has a lot to do with Price being 58th in SV% and 48th in GAA while Allen is 10th in both categories. We need to get into the playoffs before we can worry who our starting goaltender is for game one. Unless Carey takes the bull by the horns, rotating back and forth is a very viable option.

After having had Waite jettisoned, Pricer is working on getting Allen traded as we speak.

It’s also as simple as the last time he played the Jets he blew two separate 2 goal leads (including 4 unanswered). Allen only let in 2 goals total, the second being a 3 on 3 OT goal.

So would we rather the guy that allowed four 5 on 5 goals against the Jets or the one that allowed zero 5 on 5 goals?

Got @dinodebino to agree with you.

 

[The Real Timo]

Anderson - Mete - Frolik (in that order) sounds like a great #1 line. Mete takes over Danno as #1 center.

[Holystik]

Except 2 teams, the North can't stop pucks!

 

[malton]

The last 2 games the defense have limited the high danger chances against. Hopefully they can continue the trend tonight.

 

[Supersonic]

Hoping KK puts another good game together and maybe even plays 15mins+
