I'd like to see this on opening night:

Pacioretty - DD - Gallagher
Galchenyuk - Plekanec - Sekac
Bourque - Eller - DLR
Prust - Malhotra - Weise
Moen

Emelin - Subban
Markov - Gilbert
Weaver - Beaulieu
7th missing

Price
Tokarski​

Shift Gallagher down to the 3rd when PAP returns and DLR to the minors. Emelin/Markov can switch from time to time but a Markov - Subban pairing would make the others bad.

Gotta face the cap, having Vanek would make us cap contenders...it is what it is i guess. I'm still excited to see the development curve of the Galch, Beaulieu, Gallagher and whatever rookie makes the team.

Not saying a thing about the Leafs we seem to suck at these openers.
If we can beat them somehow it's open season.

The last time we won our home opener against Toronto was in 2009 IIRC. Gorges scored the OT winner. 5 losses in a row.

:shakehead Habs

We're due!!!!!!!

Same thing every year: Habs lose the opener, Leafs fans brag about it for a week everytime they see me in my Habs gear. Followed a few weeks later by Leafs fans pointing out how much higher the Leafs are in the standings than the Habs (yay for first place in October guys, you did it!).

Pacioretty-DD-Parenteau
Galchenyuk-Plekanec-Sekac
Bourque-Eller-Gallagher
Prust-Malhotra-Weise
Extras : Bournival, Moen

Emelin-Subban
Markov-Gilbert
Beaulieu-Weaver
Extra : Tinordi

Price
Tokarski

..is my line-up. I'm willing to give Parenteau a couple of games on the 1st line, but if he does not perform I would try Sekac first than Gallagher.

Habs always lose the opener. It's tradition to raise Leafs hopes up before crushing it at the end of season. :sarcasm:

Why? Vanek didn't play many games for the Habs and Malhotra is an upgrade over White. Sekac could be an impact player and who knows what DLR can bring.

this team relies on price. vanek was game breaker.

the role gionta and gorges played are under valued.

im not confident with this group, pap? really?

what bourque will show? emelin? gilbert?

not a fan of how the team is coached. prust wont stay healthy, or bottom 6 is blah.

i'm excited about galchenyuk, pk, and beaulieu..obviously price.
