Pre-Game Talk: Montreal Canadiens at Los Angeles Kings 10:30 ET :(

[Lshap]

This road trip is going to tell us who we are and what we're capable of....all ridiulously talented opponents....all from the rougher tougher western conference...all on the road....if we can come out of this with a winning record and potentially without price....we can compete in the playoffs.

We can't properly measure the team without Carey Price in nets. Assuming he's not there, I'm looking for some compete from our forward lines and the solid systematic defence we've had recently. As long as those fundamentals are there and we play a strong game, I don't mind a loss.

Win or lose, I want to see whether or not these Habs can play with the Kings.

 

[PricerStopDaPuck]

I think Matt Moulson will have a big game today.

 

[Summer Rose]

In for another 6-5 shootout win with plenty of Prim drunken fury.

Book it.

 

[ZARTONK]

What else is new?

Why can't I delete a post anymore?

 

[Mats NAslund]

Habs will get 5 points on this roady, you heard it from me first.

LOL, Montreal will be lucky to get a single point on this trip!

 

[Summer Rose]

We will get 2 points against Phoenix.

 

[Mats NAslund]

We will get 2 points against Phoenix.

By the time Montreal gets to Phoenix this team will be so battered and bruised they won't have anything left in the tank for that game. I predict 0 of 8 points!

 

[ZARTONK]

We will get 2 points against Phoenix.

You should have written we will get two points agains us.

 

[David Suzuki]

Habs will win 3-0
Galchenyuk with 2 and Markov with 1

 

[Summer Rose]

You should have written we will get two points agains us.

You know what's even worse about it... I don't think I'm even going to get to watch the game. I have a ticket to the game, but my rec league team has a playoff game at 9 that night. Game starts at 7.

Can't just ditch my rec league team either. I'm the goalie for the rest of the season due to relationship drama between the team captain and the usual goalie.

Carey Price not on the ice, looks like Budaj gets another start. Good luck.

 

[Nicko999]

Career game #300 for Pacioretty. Hopefully goal #30 as well.

 

[That Habs Fan]

I really hope Carey is back for March 15th, not only because if not that would've meant Budaj got a lot of games, but also because I'm coming to town from TO that day.

Taking the girlfriend to Sens@Habs for her first NHL game ever.

...if Bootsie pulls out a victory in tonite's game, we officially have the best backup in the history of the NHL...

Wouldn't they use Tokarski at one point?

 

[Habaddict]

Because they have become too valuable.

Bidding on E-bay has reached astronomical proportions.

 

[Mrb1p]

hopefully Subban doesn't get too brash and get another goal and assist on the tying and winning goal tonight.

I hate that he doesn't grind.

 

[Mrb1p]

Seeing the negativity in this thread, I'm looking forward to a perfect trip. 8 out of 8 Only the habs

 

[Team_Spirit]

The 3rd star is back!

Prust and Bournival skated with no contact jerseys.

Lines at practice:

Galchenyuk-Plekanec-Gionta
Pacioretty-Desharnais-Gallagher
Bourque-Eller-Brière
Weise-White-Moen

Markov-Emelin
Gorges-Subban
Murray-Tinordi

Jesus still hurt, Buddah will play a 4th straight game.

 

[tinyzombies]

I will be at both LA games - go habs go

Anaheim had been struggling before the break, and were sluggish against St. Louis Friday night (I was at the game), but clobbered Carolina yesterday.

St. Louis didn't get many chances though, and were only able to set up offensively a few times. Anaheim clogged up the neutral zone pretty well.

I hope we don't just collapse, cuz Anaheim will grind us to bits in our own end.

I didn't really appreciate it until I looked at this post, but, with Prust and Bournival back our depth up front is going to be very, very nice. I wouldn't mind making a trade for either a higher end forward or another true top 4 dman to play with Subban.

MB's mother-in-law passed away, he's on his way to Chicago.

So it looks like the war room will be without its general for the trade deadline. Techs help, but they can't do much during a funeral.

Are you sure you're going to watch the game?
