I also think it will be a high number, resting only for the back to back games and even then I think he'll play a few of those. Can't wait for the 19th!

I'll say 38-40, keep in mind the schedule will be very tight and we'll probably have a lot of back to back games.
We're talking about a condensed schedule, so who knows?
Last year, we played our last game on April 7th. If it stays the same, starting on the 19th, that makes an 11 week season. That means we might even play 5 times within a week. My guess is they'll extend it to mid-april, making it 12 weeks, with 4 games a week.
That's a huge workload. It'll be interesting to see how he can handle it. I think the best might be to limiting him between 3 - 3.5 games a week .

46-48... this is a short season and he will have to play lights out if we want to make the playoffs.

Let's tank
Budaj all the way
No such thing as a tank anymore ad all 14 teams who don't make the playoffs get a shot at the lottery picks. Which im glad cause im so over all the tank talk on here. if we finished 9th in the east I guess it would be considered a "tank"
And price should get 38-40 starts this yr for sure.

I don't think so, you still have way better chance to win the lottery if you end up top 5. And the worst that can happen is you lose 1 spot.
Tanking is as much a viable option as it was.
Bergevin and Therrien will never be in "tank mode". They are winner. But let's face it, if we have a injury to one of our top player, we're ****ed. We have some talent but no depth. We have no scoring threat (except our 1st line, but we have to admit it would be awesome 2nd line but a ok 1st line), our defence give responsability to young and inexperienced players (Subban, Emelin, Diaz) because our veterans are fragile or past their prime (Markov and Kaberle). The worst cast scenario would be a injury to either Gorges, Price, Cole or Plekanek. They are the player that stabilize our team.
I truly believe Montreal will finish in the bottom 10 of the league this year. But after that, the team will start to look like a contender. We finally have the piece for that (let's just find two top end talent via draft or UFA).

Around 40 if he's healthy, definitely. He's a workhorse so he can handle it. The question is how rusty he'll be after a long time off and a really short camp.

They'll ride him hard and he seems to like that better... I'd say probably 37-40 games depending on the schedule.
