[Le Tricolore]

I love the top line. I really hope it works.

 

[Mike Mike Caron]

So Weaver is out with a upper body injury and Allen has the flu, will they call up a defencemen?

 

[Subban signed e5]

DD and Pacioretty are split at last

 

[Smokey Thompson]

Ca sent la coupe

 

[habscup*]

DD and Pacioretty are split at last

No, Therrien was asked if the lines at practice mean he's gonna put different partners for Desharnais and Paccioretty, and he said it's just practice (and laughed) and said that nothing is certain for the actual game.

 

[Habssince89]

Don't want to get my hopes up about DD on the 3rd line, but I'm so excited

 

[Em Ancien]

Triple shift Gilbert

Oh great, so we get to see Allen at less than full capacity. Should be a treat to watch.

 

[Michelangelo]

**** so excited for tomorrow.

I would love to see Hudon brought up for this very emotional game, just as a reward for his outstanding start as a professional in the AHL. Besides being a Francophone player that is starring in the AHL, this kid personifies the Habs team spirit of character and teamwork.

Markov - Subban
Beaulieu - Gonchar
Emelin/Tinordi - Gilbert


...do it, Therrien!!...

I'm sure MT reads our board and is trolling big time

who would he replace?

 

[Le Tricolore]

Do you even have to ask?


edit: but no, Hudon shouldn't be called up.

 

[That Habs Fan]

Finally! That is a legit top-line (Gallagher is more of a 2nd liner but he's miles better than DD)

and about the defence, I hope they call up Tinordi

Markov-Subban
Emelin-Gonchar
Tinordi-Gilbert

 

[Hope Of Glory]

We finally seem on the right track, at least up front. Great.

 

[S Bah]

who would he replace?

He doesn't need to replace anyone, I just think having our top Hab prospects at an emotional game and a historic game like this, would be a great inspirational move by the team's management. Just plain old good PR and team character building for the Habs system!

 

[CristianoRonaldo]

Please call up Nygren, RD !

 

[Haaabs]

**** so excited for tomorrow.

Cowabunga dude, me too. I hope Therrien doesn't start juggling the lines right away if we don't score in the first 10 minutes. Gotta give them time to adjust to each others playstyles and positioning at the very least.

 

[S Bah]

Jean Beliveau's great work towards helping the youngsters and our next generations, being realized with the next generation of Habs prospects also would be appreciated by le Gros Bill I'm sure.

 

[Tabarouette]

DD will be back on the first line by thursday and you know it.

 

[Skip Bayless]

DD and Pacioretty back together at the end of the first period, Eller scratched from the line up 13 games after his recovery.

 

[Bourne Endeavor]

[polarbearcub]

Go easy on us..... Last two games have been a fire drill in our defensive end. Really starting to miss hamhuis
