Alzner needs to sit..............anyhow, this will be the toughest game on the Western swing..............

 

[Tyson]

Man Lehkonen makes such a difference.

Two wins so far on a trip that is usually not friendly is promising. Just win your games

 

[CauZuki]

Trade Plekanec and ice these lines ffs:

Pacioretty - Danault - Drouin
Lekhonen - Galchenyuk - Gallagher
Hudon - Shaw - Byron
Carr - Froese - Deslauriers

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Edmonton is playing well at home right. They really surprised me with the win last night. They played very well.

Edmonton took us to town at home not that long ago guys better be motivated to play this one after that farce.

I expect Price to play this one too. CJ doesn't seem all that concerned with the back to back thing.

I say it goes to OT.

Pacioretty finally legally scores.

 

[DramaticGloveSave]

Is Hudon or hurt, or do we just have too many wingers?

 

[Tyson]

Is Hudon or hurt, or do we just have too many wingers?

No room for him currently

 

[MXD]

Hudon is a too skilled to play for that coach.

 

[PriceIsGod]

When I feel we should win we lose, when I feel we should lose we win... now its to the point where I feel like we should lose... so we'd win, but does that make us lose?

 

[habdynasty]

Is Hudon or hurt, or do we just have too many wingers?

Carr, lekhonen and Deslauriers have taken his spot with their Gallagher like play.

 

[Kudo Shinichi]

Froese won't be scratched tonight since he's got a goal and assist last night

but ideally we would go with

Pacioretty - Drouin - Byron
Hudon - Danault - Galchenyuk
Lehkonen - Plekanec - Gallagher
Deslaurier - Shaw - Carr

The 4th line should still be very effective
Could maybe even put Byron as the 4th line center

 

[Habs100]

Please Claude, put Shaw on the 3rd line where he belongs

Pacioretty Danault Gallagher
Byron Drouin Galchenyuk
Lehkonen Plekanec Shaw
Carr Froese Deslaurier

The reason the 3rd and 4th lines are carrying us is you don't have the right combos on the first two.

Gallagher and Pacioretty play well together - they've done so in the past with Plekanec, Desharnais and Galchenyuk as their center. Let's give them our current best center, Danault.

Byron-Drouin-Galchenyuk were doing well before Drouin went down. Why haven't we gone back to them?

 

[Runner77]

Bergevin looks way to happy to be the grinch who stole Christmas, lol.

Nice job, Donghabs.

 

[SquiddFX]

Are we above .500 for the first time this season?

 

[Adam Michaels]

Are we above .500 for the first time this season?

Yup. Ça sent la coupe!

 

[BLONG7]

Are we above .500 for the first time this season?

Not really, but it depends on how you look at our loser points...

 

[Habs]

How is the CBC coping in Edmonton, with McLegend not leading the league in scoring by 20 points?

 

[Habs100]

To make the playoffs we have to beat out 4 of the following 7 teams, all of whom are ahead of us:

Columbus Blue Jackets

New York Rangers

New York Islanders

Pittsburgh Penguins

Carolina Hurricanes

Philadelphia Flyers

[TBODY] [/TBODY]

Boston Bruins


Who can we beat? Philadelphia, Carolina, New York Islanders and who's the fourth? Boston? very difficult Pittsburgh? also difficult. The Rangers? Even beating out the Islanders will be difficult.

We could be sellers very soon.

 

[Zorba]

Happy Festivus. It’s time for the airing of grievances

 

[OldCraig71]

Alzner needs to sit..............anyhow, this will be the toughest game on the Western swing..............

Karl Alzner makes Alexei Emelin look like Victor Hedman, wtf did Bergevin see in him? He must have a ton of Karakter.

 

[SquiddFX]

Happy Festivus. It’s time for the airing of grievances

We already do that. It's just a regular day

 

[McGuires Corndog]

Will Pacioretty continue his impression of the ghost Christmas past?

 

[Adam Michaels]

 

[Habs100]

I don't want this team to make the playoffs. I want them to tank. But if they were to go on a run and make the playoffs, it would be one heck of a run. The only way they can make the playoffs is on sheer hard work, guts, and Carey Price being lights out.

 

[Mrb1p]

INB4 another hart trophy to Pricer.
