Pre-Game Talk: Habs @ Bruins Wed Jan 12 @ 7pm EST

[Adam Michaels]

Romanov and Evans won't play tomorrow either.

Neither of them had access to their equipment since they entered Protocol. Since they stayed behind and the equipment went back with the team.

So they will need some practices because today was the first time they suited up.

no way to predict tonight's game

we've been off forever and tons of guys back after being off with "the 'rona" so who knows what shape their lungs might be in or how stiff the legs are

and bruins are starting tukka rask.... so who knows what HE is going to look like

my only prediction is this is either a blow out for one of the teams or a trap fiesta and we lose 2-1 or 1-0

..... OR neither of those things

there, now my prediction sounds like something an insider like Dreger would say to avoid being wrong.

Jake DeBrusk welcome to Mauntreall!

I can literally feel the collective rage of Bruins fans if this trade happened

I agree - I think it will be a spirited game by the Habs now that they finally have some guys back in the lineup and they've been off for so long. Who knows what the outcome will be though.

 

[BLONG7]

Not the first time Drouin and Ducharme have an animated conversation at practice.

Let's hope they both find their way off the team, real soon......Tired of it all.....

 

[BLONG7]

Would also go well in a leafs thread...

 

[Crusher117]

Why the hell is Primeau on the taxi squad instead of playing games in Laval? Poulin should be the one on the taxi squad. Primeau needs to play.

I believe he's still on covid protocol no?

 

[Schwang]

I believe he's still on covid protocol no?

Oh maybe. Hopefully after that, he goes back down.

It’s been mentioned in another thread but nice to hear the story directly from Wideman. It’ll always be a kid’s game even if you’re playing it as an adult.

so nice to hear

Reminds of the time Elvis was driving about one night and saw an advert for an Elvis impersonator contest. He apparently entered it and lost.

[Canadiens Ghost]

Game tonight.............wow it seems like it has been forever....guys will be fresh...........and rusty...

They'll be frushty.

Poulin doesn't have an NHL contract, so he can't be on taxi squad.

Plus, Montréal's next 7 games are all on the road with two back-to-backs, and a 5 games in 8 days stretch. My guess is he'll play a game - maybe versus Arizona.

Allen gets Boston tonight then one of Primeau/Montembeault will face Chicago tomorrow.

 

[CapSpace]

I actually expect a much better Habs team and a much better Petry.

I can see the Habs being much more competitive for the rest of the year.

Since Petry's wife and kids ran away from America's North Korea to great freedom land of Michigan, he can't play any worst, right?

 

[peate]

This could be a fun game or a laugher. I guess it all depends on your sense of humour. Good chance it ends as usual, 5-2. It'll be nice to see the boys back on the ice though.

Don't challenge him like that it seems impossible but you just never know

 

[McGees]

Lots of players back, lots of rest and Habs will be jacked up wanting to start 2022 off right.
6-1 Bruins.

 

[CapSpace]

At least his family is safe from the world's worst dictatorship. I guess.

 

[Runner77]

Suzuki does come across as a likeable guy.

However, please stop calling him "Suzy", it's a cringey AF RuPaul vibe. Heard Jake Allen refer to Suzuki that way, which could be fine and all, if he and his buddies kept that stuff out of earshot.

 

[angusyoung]

So the game is still on it seems. Originally it was suppose to be Boston in Montreal, was it not? Will Montreal get home ice in this case?

 

[swimmer77]

Caufield with the winning goal. I can't wait.

Pretty sure this game was scheduled in Boston

 

[angusyoung]

Pretty sure this game was scheduled in Boston

Then I stand corrected,thank you!

 

[Runner77]

Not according to a Bruins poster, but I don't have an official source.

He claims that: "Yes, moved it from Montreal, tickets for the March 21st game are good for this game tomorrow. I’m assuming the 3/21 game will now be in Montreal, depending on status of the plague at that point."
