[Uncle Gary]

Galchenyuk back on the wing? Desharnais taking priority over our best forward? Get rid of these clowns. Hope we get shutout.

 

[void]

The Blues have been struggling a lot lately and Steen and Bouwmeister won't be playing. Habs should be able to win tonight.

 

[BatVader]

With these lines?
Not likely.

 

[sheed36]

Habs win and DLR with the hat trick. MT in his post game will pat himself on the back and tell everyone what a genius he is.

MT then wakes up..

 

[The Nightman]

The Blues have been struggling a lot lately and Steen and Bouwmeister won't be playing. Habs should be able to win tonight.

Habs had trouble against a cammalleri-less New Jersey Devils squad at home, I definitely don't give them much of a chance tonight on the road against St. Louis.

 

[holyhabs]

ridiculous that DD never takes a turn on the wing.

Who sits for Bartley to play? Barberio? Habs trading a dman? What happens to Pateryn now? Man that's a lot of questions.

 

[jaffy27]

And the road to Austin Matthews continues.........

They played alright vs. Chicago, though. This team is really weird... So hard to predict how they'll perform.

 

[The Great Weal]

Why the **** is Galchenyuk on the wing? I hate this management.

 

[sheed36]

MT wants to get his main squeeze DD going.

Most thinking Beaulieu is probably going to be dealt for an upgrade at Forward. Therrien is probably wanting to keep Barberio there who hasn't been that bad and is showing a bit of offensive flare. Not saying it's the best move but he really hasn't disappointed that much in his time up.

Probably going to roll with:

Markov Subban
Emelin Petry
Barberio Pateryn
Bartley Gilbert

 

[Rapala]

ridiculous that DD never takes a turn on the wing.

Ridiculous is that win or lose these games don't mean anything until management corrects itself.
Then and only then will DD start taking turns elsewhere.

 

[lo striver]

will watch NFL games instead

 

[The Nightman]

They played alright vs. Chicago, though. This team is really weird... So hard to predict how they'll perform.

That's true, I just find it hard seeing this team scoring more than one goal tonight. I mean Weise and DD in the top 6 again, Pleks and Pacioretty will continue their soft and uninspired play, where will these goals come from?

It feels like a chore watching this team.

 

[Rapala]

Most thinking Beaulieu is probably going to be dealt for an upgrade at Forward. Therrien is probably wanting to keep Barberio there who hasn't been that bad and is showing a bit of offensive flare. Not saying it's the best move but he really hasn't disappointed that much in his time up.

Emelin Petry
Barberio Pateryn
Bartley Gilbert

Seriously does anyone here believe that Bartley is anything more than Davis Dreweski was?

 

[jaffy27]

Maybe they really want Matthews??

 

[donghabs98]

They have been getting chances but no finish which is a testament to the skill level of the team. What I have been disappointed with is our "leadership core". Our vets haven't stepped up at all and it's quite discouraging. When your leaders and top players aren't stepping up then it's hard to expect other players to step up as well.

 

[sheed36]

I've never even heard of Victor Bartley until this trade so I can't comment on him at all.

 

[MacEugene]

Who sits for Bartley to play? Barberio? Habs trading a dman? What happens to Pateryn now? Man that's a lot of questions.

Remember, we acquired a D because we had too much depth at defense.

 

[BigHabs]

Seriously does anyone here believe that Bartley is anything more than Davis Dreweski was?

He is at best a 6/7th dman. He was okay in his games with Nashville but nothing to make you think he is going to be a key contributor.

Pateryn is an upgrade IMO over him.

 

[Krnage]

Maybe they really want Matthews??

i hope habs dont draft Matthews.... MT will destroy Matthews' potentiel
