Pre-Game Talk: Game 26: Habs vs. Rangers Saturday, Dec. 1st at 7PM, SN, TVAS

My apologies thought I read he was back

He's about to but they could wait until friday to put someone on waivers.

My guess, based on the current lineup, Mete could be the one going down.

 

[admiralcadillac]

What's the timeline on Armia?

 

[koyvoo]

What's the timeline on Armia?

He’s still 3-5 weeks away based on initial diagnosis I’d say.

 

[Kraken Jokes]

Looks like Mete or Peca going down. Mete makes more sense because he's waiver-exempt and I'm not sure Peca would clear waivers. We shouldn't risk our C depth even if it's 4th line guys. Injuries happen.

 

[admiralcadillac]

That's been a thing for awhile but when you look at the standings this year.. I think it's obvious that it's too tight for that cut off to be an indication of much.

Only St Louis and LA look like guaranteed play off no shows.

St Louis what a dumpster fire that is

 

[Agalloch]

Mete to Laval creates a spot for Byron. Good move, give Mete 25 mins per game in Laval.

 

[DramaticGloveSave]

I think we kick some ass. 6-2 Habs.

 

[The Great Weal]

Lehkonen is usually good against the Rangers

 

[Mike Mike Caron]

He’s still 3-5 weeks away based on initial diagnosis I’d say.

1 to 3 weeks according to the original 4-6 weeks schedule announced on November 8.

 

[Uncle Gary]

Lehkonen is usually good against the Rangers

Most disappointing player for me so far this year. I was really expecting him to put things together and have a great season. Can't seem to hit the net to save his life so far.

 

[De Montreal]

Wonder if the Rangers will act as tough with Weber in the lineup

 

[Runner77]

Lehkonen is usually good against the Rangers

So you're willing to hold off blasting the cannon?

 

[Uncle Gary]

Is it just me or is that 5th line way better than the 4th...

 

[Runner77]

If Dlo's cage is off, are we going to see the old Dlo? That's one guy who is going to be scary to watch until his first fight post-injury is out of the way.

 

[Runner77]

Is it just me or is that 5th line way better than the 4th...

Depends what you're looking for on that 4th line. Moar scoring, then yeah go for the 5th. The 4th is more physical.

 

[Tuggy]

So glad to see Lord Byron back. Brings a lot to the team.

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

kulak first pair lol...........

 

[peate]

kulak first pair lol...........

I don't see the humour, he's been a nice surprise, really. Bet you they're a good pair.

 

[Gamimenos]

I don't see the humour, he's been a nice surprise, really. Bet you they're a good pair.

I agree. I like what I see from Kulak this far.

 

[LaP]

Shaw and Danault still in our top 6. I guess the tank is still on.

 

[CauZuki]

Absolutely, Deslauriers is beyond useless , agostino has been good enough and I don't really notice Chaput much so hard for me to form an opinion. I really liked Peca for most of the season, he has nice wheels and although was mediocre to start ,I felt like he was really coming into his own (just my two nickles , since we don't have cents anymore )

This is my lineup when healthy:

Drouin - Domi - Shaw
Tatar - Danault - Gallagher
Lekhonen - Kotkaniemi - Armia (They started clicking before Armia's injury)
Hudon - Peca - Byron
Deslauriers

Rielly - Weber
Mete - Petry
Kulak - Juulsen
Ouellet

Tomas Tatar will be celebrating his birthday vs the Rangers on Saturday night.

 

[Rapala]

1 to 3 weeks according to the original 4-6 weeks schedule announced on November 8.

Those are always spot on.

 

[Rapala]

SO THE RUN AND GUN IS DONE.
