Montreal Canadiens 2018 Preseason III

[417]

So looks like the top 6 is set.

Byron, Domi & Lehkonen will likely be the 3rd line.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Sucks that Shaw is ready. Thought he was still weeks away.

That means he was probably cleared for contact awhile ago. Why didn't he play in the last exhibition game?

 

[EveryDay]

Maybe; Domi-Peca-Lehkonen and Hudon-Byron-Shaw

Against the Leaf I prefer Shaw over Scherbak, Scherbak is a turnover machine.

 

[Leon Lucius Black]

Given we play the Leafs, I am guessing Plekanec will play to help defensively.

Domi - Peca - Lehkonen
Byron - Plekanec - Shaw

[Pompeius Magnus]

Domi - Peca - Lehkonen
Byron - Plekanec - Shaw

Sounds likely.

 

[Belial]

Shaw comes in and has a spot on the power play right away... if we’re talking about earning a spot here , I’m a little baffled at that

He was doing a good job before he was injured... That's why, he doesn't need to prove anything.

 

[Belial]

Hudon not having a spot on this roster, damn this team is deep!

 

[417]

Domi - Peca - Lehkonen
Byron - Plekanec - Shaw

I can't see Byron playing on the 4th line...furthermore, if you listened to Bergevin on Antichambre last night, he said they want to give Domi a shot at centre.

Byron-Domi-Lehkonen
Peca/Hudon-Plekanec-Shaw/Hudon

 

[EveryDay]

This was yesterday....

Shaw was one of the few players having a decent season last year before he got hurt....

He's not one of the more popular players on this team, but his production hasn't been terrible, he just can't seem to stay healthy.

Scratch Plekanec please!

Agree, I don't get the hate for this guy around here, he's an effective player when he actually plays.

 

[Belial]

Scratch Plekanec please!

Hudon-Peca-Shaw

No way Clode will scratch Plekasex!

Danault
Kotka
Peca
Plekasex

At center.

 

[417]

Scratch Plekanec please!

Hudon-Peca-Shaw

We'll probably see that game #2...cause Plekanec will likely sit game #2 so that game 1000 is at home next week.

 

[EveryDay]

No way Clode will scratch Plekasex!

Danault
Kotka
Peca
Plekasex

At center.

Not according to the last few report.... Danault-Kotkaniemi-Domi-Plekanec/Peca

 

[417]

Danault
Kotka
Peca
Plekasex

At center.

I think we're going to see Plekanec a healthy scratch quite often this year if i'm to read between the lines of what Bergevin said last night.

Right now, the teams top 3 C's are

Danault
Kotkaniemi
Domi

This was pretty much confirmed by Bergevin last night

Which means Plekanec & Peca will fight it out for the 4th line spot based on matchups.

In this scenario, I have ZERO issues with Plekanec on the team.

Les trios du #CH pourrait ressembler à ceci... Drouin-Kotkaniemi-Armia; Tatar-Danault-Gallagher; Byron-Domi-Lehkonen; Peca-Plekanec-Hudon;

Pop the champagne man!

Pop the champagne man!

I may have slightly exaggerated the "zero" issues part.

Lets just say if they're planning on using him in a rotational role on the 4th line.

I can live with it lol

 

[Belial]

Why they necessarily want to use Domi at center?

 

[EveryDay]

Hudon have been pretty solid in the preseason, why would you scratch him.

I disagree with this decision.....

 

[Milhouse40]

RDS\91.9 whinefest about possibly Hudon being scratch in 5-4-3-2-1....
