Pre-Game Talk: Habs Prepare to get Flamed On (Tomorrow)

[CapSpace]

My Father had one incident, a TV fell on his head. Headaches and seizures for decades after. This was early seventies before post concussion was even an idea. I watched a vibrant man become a shell of himself.

I had a major car accident at work. I was "lucky" to "only" get out with a concussion. Still, it took me 8 months to get back to work.

The hardest thing was when my long time (and still) girlfriend told me that there was a me before the accident, and a me after the accident. That she had to learn to live with a different version of me. That hits hard.

It can happen to anyone, but I can't f***ing believe professional sport teams, in 2021, are still missing or letting go of players with concussions.

You're hoping the familiarity between the three will help. It will also be up to Poehling to show he belongs even if it's not in the ideal spot. Keep in mind Suzuki started the first 20 or so games of his career on the wing of the 4th line with Nate Thompson.

Poehling needs to do something similar. Show enough with the limited minutes and work your way up the line-up and earn more ice time.

Not all will be lost if dum dum uses him on the PK

Cant believe Paquette Will Play again ...

A foward with 0pts in 10 Games and a supposed def center with a Nice 30% on faceoff lol.

We can lose That one by 3-4 ezpz

Intangibles.

Today isn't going to pretty. Flames are pretty strong, they clog, they are physical... the kind of team Habs could never play well against. That old school dinosaur Sutter seems to have worked out quite well for them.

 

[sampollock]

this game won't be pretty

maybe Calgary will want to have petry, when they leave town

 

[Hansman]

Always cheer for the Habs but reality has set in....this team blows

Hard to cheer against your own team but the gig is up,we need a tear down.

 

[Rapala]

Our best hope is teams start taking us for granted. However the logo on our jersey seems to drive a desire to crush us for some reason.

One can only hope that molson, behind the scenes, is looking for the president of hockey operations... and that someone is actually a hockey man/woman, not another molson crony to get a cushy job.

Molson still believe in da plan.

Does Poeling not having a driver's license??

 

[expy]

Guess he knows he isn't popular enough for regulars on the metro to know who he is.

 

[KevSkillz4]

Maybe if they call up Poehling and don't have play Brooks instead... Rangers want to watch him? Kravtsov and Poehling in the deal?

 

[MilesNewton]

any idea what the lines are tonight? I think Romanov is playing better with Wideman.
From the looks of it Petry is probably happy that he isn't having to play with Romanov

Petry needs to focus on himself. 2 points in 14 games is unacceptable.

Was he really that dependent on Edmundson?

Gonna bet all my SB Cash on Calgary so we can enjoy a Habs win for once

Lucic has grown so old on me. I can't believe he is still in the league
