Pre-Game Talk: Habs @ Bruins

[admiralcadillac]

Season never feels fully started til Montreal plays Boston.

Price will have to be exceptional because our D was dominated by the Eichel line imagine what the Bergeron line will do.

According to the mainboard/Torts rivalries don't exist anymore; however I do expect to see some intense hugging from Gallagher and Marchand in this one.

We've played against the Leafs, Pens twice and a host of other good teams with extremely talented players, but because our D was supposedly dominated by a team that beat us with a minute to go yesterday (Eichel not getting a point by the way), suddenly our D will be getting dominated?

The Marchand line is very good yes but let's get some perspective here.

The Bruins have similar speed, way more skill and size. Habs won’t match up well

 

[slybel]

FREE CHARLES HUDON!!

Replace Shaw for sure!

 

[llamateizer]

FREE CHARLES HUDON!!

 

[Milhouse40]

Automatic win

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

Hope we get smoked and it humbles our expectations for this season even more. The sooner this happens the better so we can be sellers at the deadline. Last thing we need is to fade towards the end and just miss the playoffs. This is the track we are on boys and girls... like it or not

dont worry , habs playing 200% hockey while some teams are on 40%.

top10 will be easy

 

[Peanut]

Montreal better end this "Deslaurier is an everyday player" thing if they want to have any actual success this year. I know Bergevin thinks its one of the better moves he's made, but its really not.

Keep playing him though, I want a good pick.

But he hits everything in sight thats how you win games intimidate the other team OLD TIME HOCKEY lol

 

[Adam Michaels]

So on top of Hudon being confirmed for tomorrow, there may be some more changes to the line-up.

I don't know if this means Scherbak comes in or if there will be a change on defense.

 

[Rapala]

He also leads with his face...

 

[Habs Halifax]

So on top of Hudon being confirmed for tomorrow, there may be some more changes to the line-up.

I don't know if this means Scherbak comes in or if there will be a change on defense.

A game against the Bruins on a Saturday night is a perfect situation to give Scherbak opportunity, have him disappoint, and then give us reasons to sit him again. But if he produces or plays well, maybe they are on to something?

 

[BLONG7]

Shaw needs to sit..............bad penalties, goalie interference calls, last night a real lazy penalty cost us.......DLO may also be sitting tomorrow night...............they should unleash Hudon and Scherbeck and put them in the lineup, somewhere....shake it up after last night!!

 

[Rapala]

Sorry folks but Mete is not ready and needs more seasoning. A fast skating puck moving D man that creates zero offense? Send him down and bring up Kulak

No way he should be playing R D regardless of what he did in Junior.

 

[peate]

Scotty would have Shaw in the press box for a week following that game.

I think something happens with Kotkaniemi- perhaps moved up to play with Tatar and Gallagher.

 

[Simarino]

If they dont want to sit Shaw, play him at center between Hudon and Scherbak, its not like Peca and D-Lo played great the last few games

 

[Habssince89]

Every player on our 4th line could sit, but DLO should dress against Boston. Peca and Shaw have been worse. Hudon and Scherbak could be an interesting pairing, they could have some success if they are left to build chemistry and get the jump on other teams' 4th line.

 

[De Montreal]

Montreal better end this "Deslaurier is an everyday player" thing if they want to have any actual success this year. I know Bergevin thinks its one of the better moves he's made, but its really not.

Keep playing him though, I want a good pick.

Habs are not losing because of Deslauriers or that 4th line, though.

 

[MetM]

Really looking forward to this game.
I wonder what Marchand has in store for us.

The Halak vs. Price matchup should be exciting as well. Unless they put Rask but he's playing like **** and always gets destroyed against the Habs.

Rask should play. He did won his 3 games vs Montreal last year I think?

 

[teamfirst]

Scotty would have Shaw in the press box for a week following that game.

Naaa.......would have drive him personaly to Nova-Scotia with the Voyageurs

 

[Shad]

I'm not a pessimist I'm an optometrist but I can't see us winning this one.

 

[llamateizer]

That's 20/20 vision you got there

I hope the Habs sucks for next few weeks. I just got red dead redemption 2. I want to play it

Damn right! I'm going to get it soon, but I'm wondering if I should upgrade to a Ps4 pro or Xbox 1x since its a 4K game( I have a Xbox 1). What console do you have?

 

[Tyson]

This is as unwinnable of a game as I have seen all year. Maybe Alzner can watch how Chara does it

PS4 pro on a 65 4k tv.
I upgraded my PS4 few months ago at ebgames . Trade in PS4 for a PS4 pro + horizon zero dawn

Here's the thing though, they were winning with four speedy lines.
