Pre-Game Talk: #HabsPanthers (28/12/2018 ; 7:00 PM ET ; FS-F, RDS, TSN2)

[Habaneros]

I thought Lindgren was close to come back....

Not this trip...

We may get to see McNevin play

 

[Adam Michaels]

Laval sign a goalie on a PTO. This surely means McNiven will get recalled on an emergency loan.

 

[Adam Michaels]

I thought Lindgren was close to come back....

Bouchard said he won't be returning before 2019, which means at least 3 more games without him. The earliest he can return in 2019 is January 2nd.

So, let's wish a good luck to Niemi and the Habs in Florida !

In Niemi's last 3 games he let in 6 goals and his last game 7 goals...as i said Mike McNevin in net is very possible...be good to see what he got ...give him a little taste

Is anyone else just sick and tired of the same old same old with Price? I mean c’mon man.

lol...its as predictable as groundhog day every year....


Could be a lockout 2020....


Chance to buyout a player with no cap penalty like last CBA agreements....

Well well well, what do we have here.... we finally agree.

 

[Edgy]

recall Alzner..Price injury hmm...

We have the coolest conspiracy theories.

Alzner injured Price! Alzner is pro tank.

 

[Habaneros]

Well well well, what do we have here.... we finally agree.

Before we gave Price that contract i was posting we should trade him away.,and sign Halak as a UFA.....lol i think we be no further behind

 

[kgboomer]

recall Alzner..Price injury hmm...

Makes perfect sense, Alzner is spending most of his time doing snow angels in front of the net trying to be a 2nd goalie out there.

 

[HockeyDBspecialist]

Lets hope its not his same damn knee.
Knees are a f***ing pain to heal and readapt to dynamic lateral movements

Or groin

[JianYang]

Yikes, this has potential to become real ugly.

So, like a dog on a bone, Price is out with a LBI (or, Family time, and that’s ok too IMHO) and they would NOT allow Kotkaniemi play for Finland in the World Jr’s?? REALLY? 3-4 games without Price and Kotka pays the price as an 18 yr old NOT gettting a chance to represent his country, CAUSE EVERY point counts??? A huge mistake IMHO, again!

If the club reported the injury, he's injured. Otherwise, it would have been listed as a personal reason absence.

I bet the club would rather have preferred to report it as a personal absence rather than an injury, because the injury just opens up another can of worms.

I felt they overplayed Carey, and he also ended up playing 3 back to back sets in this stretch of consecutive games. Granted, one of those back to backs was mop up duty, but they still failed to get price some rest in that one. It's questionable whether that workload contributed to this injury, but I was not comfortable with it.

It's hard not to fear the worst when it comes to price. Let's hope this is a different case.

Someone has bookmarked tonight's game for an apparent "settling of accounts":

Kotkaniemi has a role on an NHL team. What does the World Juniors matter? It’s not the Olympics.

Im pretty sure Max couldnt give a crap. And Eklab is a p***y. Crush the Kitty cats in front of their 1763 fans.

Poor Kotkaniemi - he gets to live out his lifelong dream of playing in the NHL.

What are the Habs thinking

Last time I checked, NHLers were NOT playing in the Olympics?
