Great news guys, Hyman should be back for Olympics.

Thank goodness.

More material for the TSN Parody Twitter account, but if you look at the video section on TSN right now.

"Hyman suffers sprained MCL, will miss two weeks minimum"
"Edler suspended 2 games for kneeing Hyman"
"Nylander late for team meeting, status for Tuesday uncertain"
"LeBrun: Hyman injury news pretty good considering the other options"
"Masters: Hyman's absence already having a trickle down effect on Leafs lineup"
"Johnson believes Edler's hit on Hyman was dirty but not intentional"

And finally, "Price starts as Habs aim to continue season success against McDavid, Oilers"

It is quite amazing that Marleau did this. Good on him.

How did he pull this off at his age since Gordie was playing into his 70s?

One thing really helps and it might be more astounding than breaking the current GP record. At age 41, Marleau is currently running the 4th longest consecutive games streak in NHL history, he's just short of 900 straight games played.

*returns from nhl.com* Check that, here's something even more amazing. Of the longest NHL games played streaks, #3, #4, and #5 are all active. You might know based on the hoopla around his possible benching that Keith Yandle is #3 (911). Marleau is 4th at 898. The 5th longest GP streak in NHL history is 889 games.

889 straight games played by Phil goddamned Kessel. I'd be guessing until tomorrow morning and I probably wouldn't have come up with that.

And one final thing to watch for, I heard an interview with the Sharks PBP guy today. Marleau has a game winning goal against every single NHL team except...Vegas, who they play tonight. Wouldn't it be something for a Marleau OT winner tonight.

Might have been mentioned already but quite a surprise for the NHL 1st star of the week...

 

[George Lebay]

Expecting ottawa to get their asses whipped by the Flames tonight..

 

[canucklover123]

Killorn dropped Necas (left the game), fought Gardiner and waved to the fans. Kinda lame but wtv

I told you. Dont give up on Staal.

 

[Kimota]

Come on Sens, you can do it.

 

[George Lebay]

Domi is a healthy scratch tonight..

 

[davey999]

Expecting ottawa to get their asses whipped by the Flames tonight..

Nope.

 

[Deebs]

Sens win

 

[JustAHabFan]

Sens do us a disservice by beating us then do us a great service by beating the Flames.

 

[Miller Time]

Sens 3-1 since the deadline...

traded away some vets, replaced them with youth (including our own castaway, Mete), playing free, focused and intense hockey...

good thing we added vets, got rid of/demoted youth... much better approach

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Since the deadline Montreal is 3-6-0 in 9 games (really bad), and have given up 29g, while scoring only 15!

15 goals in 9 games!

On average, we're losing 3-1.

Yeesh you have a complex langauge Per. Almost french in difficulty. How many words do you have for snow?

@Per Sjoblom, should we let them in on the Swedish Entrance/Exit-sign secret?

 

[Zam Boni]

Snö, snög , sno, blötsnö, kornsnö, kramsnö, lössnö, nysnö, pudersnö, skare, skarsnö, snöhagel, yrsnö.

When I watch highlights from the other games, I'm asking myself "could the Habs have scored that goal ?"

99% of the time the answer is no.

This team is just awful.

I watch columbus / florida the previous game. I saw litteraly a tic tac to. They were passing the puck at maybe 10 feet of the net, 3 quicks pass. Pif paf dans pantoufle. Îve never see that in a long time in montreal. Im more use to see a garbage goal. Or a rebound lol

 

[peate]

I wonder what Max told him.

 

[Holystik]

It's the unfortunate day of the week where we all cheer for the Leafs, for those who want Habs in the playoffs.

I'm not even sure anymore who should I be more scared of. Flames or Canucks...
Perhaps our own team.

 

[Adam Michaels]

I'd be surprised if Domi is back in Columbus next year. The way it's gone for him this year, I can see Jarmo not keeping him to serve the second year of his contract.

 

[Adam Michaels]

It was already reported, but now it's official:

 

[overlords]

I wonder what Max told him.

'I still lead you in empty net goals mothaf***aaa'
