I couldn't think of a good Bouillon pun...

[Habtchum*]

Don't Tampa Bay and Florida both also have a tonne of Canadians on their rosters?

Some Americans are sometimes clueless.

Yup. Florida's best player is a 19 year old rookie from St-Jerome, Quebec.

 

[BaseballCoach]

I'm really wondering what MT is going to do once Bourque and Prust are back in the lineup.

Price
Budaj

Subban-Gorges
Emelin-Markov
Diaz-Bouillon

Plekanec-Gionta-Bourque
Desharnais-Ryder-Pacioretty
Eller-Gallagher-Galchenyuk
Prust-White/Armstrong-Moen

Oh for sure. It's even more fun to go through how many of them are "core" players with prominent roles.

Subban-Gorges
Emelin-Markov
Diaz-Bouillon

Plekanec-Gionta-Bourque
Desharnais-Ryder-Pacioretty
Eller-Gallagher-Galchenyuk
Prust-White/Armstrong-Moen

Armstrong should be #1 option for the stands.

But i think there is 90 per cent possibilities they will never have a full healthy line up.


By the way, what's up with Noke ?

 

[MasterDecoy]

this PGT is strangely very quiet... are we already tired of winning?

desharnais scores, budaj was good, ryder 3 points, subban was awesome, coach was dandy, bouillion the offensive dynamo... nothing to complain about

The lineup this year is deep. On all those lines there are players who can score. I am really liking the look of this year's Habs. They are playing well and have that high compete level I like. Tonight, they easily beat the Panthers and left no doubt who is the better team.

For both teams but even at that, I agree, there is nothing to really complain unless one wants to be very picky as a fan.

 

[Hackett]

I can just imagine all the bouillon hate remarks around here if that blunder cost montreal the game. Winning seems to cure everything... well, almost.

It sort of reminded me of O'Byrne's own goal, except that was actually in a losing cause. Boy, did he ever get flamed for that.

1) learn to write line-ups with centers in the middle

2) there's no way in hell Therrien breaks the Pacioretty-Desharnais-Gallagher line until they start playing bad.

ugh. this, I hate when people do this haha

Isn't that the way lineups were written in the old days?

 

[BubbleGumPlant]

Frankie Bouill-own goal - me thinks he should chip in the rookie dinner tonight with a few rounds.

So what's the word on Kaberle? Is Pateryn here to stay until Diaz is back?

 

[Hoople]

Kaberle?

Pateryn may give Kaberle a much needed rest.

 

[souzouqui]

Gaston Therrien said White should have gone for the fight. Lol Idiot. It was 2-0. Carbonneau and Damphousse explained why White took the white decision.

You mean that PK Subban would have fought?

 

[BubbleGumPlant]

The reason I ask is without knowing Kaberle's situation there could be a lot of speculation:

1) MT wants to get Pateryn some NHL games under his belt so if we have more injuries down the road, he'll be more NHL ready

2) MT doesn't like Kaberle's play and he is a healthy scratch

3) Kaberle is injured

4) MB doesn't want to risk a long-term Kaberle injury so he can buy him out this summer

5) MB is in the works of trading him to another team and doesn't want to risk injury


My guess is #1 and #2, but am hoping for #5 obviously.

Pateryn is right handed.

 

[MXD]

Francis Bouillon, the Two-Way Player?

 

[Habtchum*]

Pateryn is right handed.

Yes. But we have enough leftie without Kaberle with Markov, Gorges, Bouillon, and if requested, Emelin, St-Denis, Tinordi or Beaulieu.

Kaberle could also be traded for a big leftie like O'Brien, Murray or Peckham.

 

[habtastic]

Oh mannn

When they explained it to him (since he's the only person who follows the Habs that would NOT understand that), did he seem at least a little embarrassed? I feel bad for Vinny and Carbo. They have to deal with such morons. And Gaston is in charge of breaking down plays. Aye oi!


Was super impressed with White for that. Plus he had a great game.

 

[habtastic]

Francis Bouillon, the Two-Way Player?

Ha!

 

[Habset]

Its great to see everyone chipping in for the win, every night a different player steps up

 

[Alexdaman]

In a 64 million cap league???

There isn't a floor team that wouldn't take him.

 

[HABsurde]

I think that would be a very bad idea. $7.7M cap hit till 2020.

But if the Lightning buys him out this summer for 3 years at 3 millions per year....

 

[CrAzYNiNe]

If he gets bought out, I wouldn't offer him more than league minimum. No reason for him to be greedy collecting 2 paychecks.
