GDT: Game #36|29-12-2014|7PM|Canadiens @ Hurricanes|RDS & SNE|

[Ezpz]

Great GDT, looking forward to the Habs / Carolina having another goalie duel between Price & Ward. Hopefully a Shootout with some more great saves, ending in a 4 - 3 win for our illustrious Habs, overcoming Ward's efforts, before rushing off to Florida to face the Panthers & Luongo tomorrow night. Four points on the line in the next two games could leave the Habs with 50pts. in 2014, in a reversal of last season, where the Habs lost both games on Dec.29th to Florida 4-1 then lost 5-4 against Carolina Dec.31st to end the year with 49pts. in 2013 on their way to 100pts overall. The Habs took 41 games to reach 49pts in 2013, whereas they have 46pts. in 35gms to date, meaning that winning the next two games will have them ahead of last years pace with four games in hand. A pretty good accomplishment, when one considers the Habs were a 100 point team that made the Stanley Cup Eastern Conference Final Series. So yes these next games before the New Year could have them in very good position for the playoffs, all of this while breaking in many rookies, and starting A.Galchenyuk @ center on the top line. It bodes well for the future of our Habs chances of winning a Stanley Cup very soon,IMHO.

Wards been awful for years, won't be much of a duel.

He's been surprisingly wonderful this year.

This trio will have to control the puck as much as possible because, with the exception of Plekanec, these guys aren’t known for playing defence. When asked about who would play defence on the line, Plekanec smiled and replied: “With those guys? I guess I’ll have to do it all.â€

I think Galchenyuk scores one... or two.

NHL hockey, it's been a while.

[Hackett]

Great GDT!!

Sadly I'm expecting our boys to get their ***** kicked tonight.

Yeah... The habs start poorly at the best of times, I can't imagine how bad it could be after a week long Christmas break. Also, the habs seem to get pounded on Mondays for whatever reason.

I don't have a good feeling about this one, but at least HF should be amusing after the game!

 

[Le Tricolore]

Chris Lee Alert.

Haven't we had a great record with him as the ref lately?

 

[Redux91]

stream?

 

[Gabouch]

Horrible play by Emelin

 

[donghabs98]

Not a bad start to the game.

 

[MasterDecoy]

stream?

yes please

 

[void]

Prust is unreal.

 

[Phil Parent]

Yeah... including that playoff game last year. But that means he's due to **** us good.

 

[Vi Nc E x13x]

did that guy just pull prust's hair?

 

[A1]

Shouldn't hurricanes guy get a penalty for removing his helmet

 

[Whitesnake]

Did Malone tried to pinch Prust nose?

 

[sheed36]

Think I'll finish watching the Sweden/Russia game before switching to the Habs game. Habs 1st periods usually suck anyway so I'm not likely to miss much.

 

[Saintpatrick*]

Chris Lee Alert.

In other words we're screwed.

 

[dkd]

Amazing how well Prust does against bigger guys.

 

[DJ Breadman]

I don't like that fight, habs had the momentum, why risk giving back to canes, let them sleep

 

[Gabe84]

What a save by Price.

 

[Kobe Armstrong]

I was unaware there was still an NHL

Prust had no choice. He did what he gotta do.
