According to TSN690 from practice today looks like King will be back on the 4th for Martinsen. Beaulieu back in for Davidson.

I'd still sit Emelin over them both but whatever.

 

[Habs4Life]

Here are the forward lines and defensive pairings head coach Claude Julien featured at practice on Friday.

Max Pacioretty - Phillip Danault - Alexander Radulov
Paul Byron - Tomas Plekanec - Brendan Gallagher
Alex Galchenyuk - Andrew Shaw - Artturi Lehkonen
Dwight King - Michael McCarron - Torrey Mitchell

Andrei Markov - Shea Weber
Alexei Emelin - Jeff Petry
Nathan Beaulieu - Jordie Benn


The 2nd line way too small.

I thought that Martinsen was one of the few guys actually giving a consistent effort last night.

 

[Mrb1p]

CJ is acting stupid.

Danault between rads and pac doesnt work.

Beaulieu being subbed out for Davidson a few weeks ago shattered his confidence.... Jesus

so CJ=MT ?

NO, just proving that the coach don't have enough talent and options in hands to do much better.

If his confidence is shattered because of that, get'em off this ****in team pis ça presse.....geez, you'd think the guy had the mental make up of a 10 yr old

This game is otherwise known as the Stanley Cup finals if you talk to Sens fans lol

So true

 

[Tuggy]

It's a pretty big game. Probably biggest game of the season to date.

 

[LaP]

Melnyk already ordered champ chats and a bunch of anti-crosby shirt. BTW is Methot still alive?

 

[M.C.G. 31]

King in for Martinsen? Lol why

 

[Chez Weber]

I want the Habs to win and remain at the top of the division because I'm kind of scarred of what the Leafs' rookies could do to us in the playoffs

 

[sheed36]

King in for Martinsen? Lol why

That was the practice lines this morning. Maybe come game time it could change for both King and Beaulieu.

Shame we already won the series 2-0.

Anyway I don't understand these moves. King is garbage and Martinsen actually looked pretty good. Neither Emelin or Davidson were good yesterday. That first line was terrible as well.

I would go with:

Pacioretty-Galchenyuk-Gallagher
Byron-Danault-Radulov
Lehkonen-McCarron-Shaw
Martinsen-Ott-Mitchell

Plekanec doesn't give an honest effort and should sit.

 

[David Suzuki]

King is not garbage he's very solid in his own zone which is why they got him. He is also as bricks though, but I don't see the big deal in having him back in the lineup.

Well done my man

 

[Ursus the White]

Well done my man

Thanks kindly

Tis the only real enjoyment i can get from the Habs this...well...millennium!

 

[The Great Weal]

Julien is an idiot.

 

[habs03]

I hated MT, think Julien is a top 5 NHL coach, but I just find it funny how sometimes ppl make things out of nothing.

I remember ppl saying that after the coaching change, the guys to benfit most from it were Galchenyuk, Beaulieu, and Pateryn..

Galchenyuk didn't play a single shift at wing this year until Julien was hired.

Pateryn was traded away after I think playing 1 game under Julien..

Beaulieu benched for the first time this year under Julien..

Nothing saying that Julien isn't justified for the moves but funny how it got worse for the players ppl say MT was ruining or wtv you want to call it.

Well of course, if you lived during the glory days, you don't get much enjoyment. Since I didn't, the occasional playoffs wins are fond memories. On fait avec ce que l'on a. :/

He's doing the same moves as Therrien, except people are supporting him. Won't last long.

Maybe Therrien is not the worst coach in the world after all?

 

[The Great Weal]

We scored more with Therrien. That is sad.
