Pre-Game Talk: Vancouver @ Montreal

[Mr. Hab]

Should be a very emotional night.

Lines from practice...MT finally changing things up!

#Habs lines:
Pacioretty - Galchenyuk - Gallagher
Andrighetto - Plekanec - Sekac
Bournival-Desharnais-Parenteau
Prust-Malhotra-Weise
Tangradi

Great!! But, I'll believe it when I see it!! Galchenyuk centering Pacioretty, and DD on the 3rd...finally!!!

And, Dale Weise can replace whoever is not bringing the energy or the finish (ex: Parenteau, Sekac) for the 2nd or 3rd lines...demotion/promotion during the game to keep players ''honest'' with hard work/energy-urgency/finish.


Go Habs Go!!



P.S.: I know I'm annoying, but...I'm still missing Rene Bourque for our top 9 depth, especially for playoffs' depth (but I'll still hope Bryan Allen can bring his ''A'' game soon for us). Bergevin has to get another playoffs' forward, imo, to replace that spot. Loving Hudon and Ghetto for our top 9 depth, but they're rookies...can't put that much pressure on them (don't rush 'em). That written...I hope to see Hudon get some games before playoffs.

Yes i know, but sometime he's right.

Not questioning that he may or may not have it right.

Mods here don't recognize the site and have issued warnings in the past. Just sayin'.

 

[Intangiblezz]

I may be in the minority but I would rather see Pacioretty - Galchenyuk - Sekac than Pacioretty - Galchenyuk - Gallagher.

 

[Nicko999]

Selon 2 sources (excellentes), c’est Nathan Beaulieu qui sera rappelé, ce soir. Jouera-t-il demain? Ce sera Allen ou lui…

From DLC.com

MTL will call-up Nathan Beaulieu, today, according to dlc.com.

****, Beaulieu should stay in the AHL. It's Tinordi that should be called up.

Allen has the flu. Likely got it when everyone in the league blows by him.

Ok ok thank you !

Disagree, I thought Nathan was superior in almost every way, he sometimes looks like he wanders in the d-zone, but his athleticism more than makes up for it. NB was killing it up here, too bad his coach didn't recognize how great his possession numbers were. He was the dman driving possession the most.

It's easy to tolerate the odd missed assignment in the d-zone if the puck is seldom there to begin with. NB should be in our top 4. He's behind only Subban/Markov/Gilbert and clearly ahead of Weaver/Gonchar/Allen, then again Tinordi probably is too. lol

I may be in the minority but I would rather see Pacioretty - Galchenyuk - Sekac than Pacioretty - Galchenyuk - Gallagher.

Nope, you're not, however, I don't mind this, at least Therrien is trying to spread out the size a bit. That would leave Andrighetto Pleks Gallagher, pretty small line, but I've been wanting them 3 together too. I've defended DD in the past, but it's time to move on. I think he may surprise a few and be effective on the 3rd line, which is a win for everyone.

 

[Richiebottles]

Shots fired !

 

[habsfanatics*]

DD had my reluctant support, but his comments on the separation, if true, really leave a bad taste in my mouth. You're doing ****all offensively and you sound like an entitled ****face. Disappointed in DD here, take your licks and keep on ticking and shut the hell up.

 

[Habsawce]

Yes i know, but sometime he's right.

I could guess he would be called up and be rigth without having any actual access to decisoins. It's a 50/50 thing.

 

[Teufelsdreck]

Ca sent la coupe

Your antennae must be more sensitive than mine.

 

[CH25]

I'll be at the game !!! Habs should come out guns blazing but we all know nothing is guaranteed with this team.

#Habs Pacioretty: "This feels like the first day of camp. Personally I'm excited to just go out there and try something new."

#Habs Desharnais: "It's like a relationship. You don't think you can play with anybody else, you don't think you can find someone else."

seems like another pitt-aniston to me..not hard to tell who's who.

What kind of comments? Did I miss anything?

omg get over it David...

 

[MXD]

Not a recognized source on this site.

The piece you got this from, contains the usual language BS references from that site:
"Desharnais au centre d’un 3e trio… 100 % francophone et québécois"

I fail to see the problem with that.

I mean...
- It's what I'd call the 3rd line, considering the players.
- They're indeed all French and Québecois.

 

[MXD]

Actually, is it me or the DD comments are turned into something they are not?

I mean, if anything, sometimes players are being blamed for their robotocity. DD said what he had on its mind, and that's probably revealing something that is probably obvious : If you play with a better player, and it works, but then doesn't work, you think : " Crap, how can I produce with somebody else " ?

That's totally defensible, and DD isn't exactly the one to blame about that, because except for a stint with Ryan White and Travis Moen, DD always played with Max since the Cunneyworth era.

Nate the grate is back !

GTFO Davie! Once Eller is back I hope they waive goodbye!

Why should it matter what language they speak?

That site always makes it a point to distinguish players on the basis of language, which doesn't mean anything in respect of on-ice performance. Demagoguery is best suited for political forums, IMHO.

Overtly doing it is better than covertly doing it.

 

[Runner77]

Not doing it at all, is even better. We're all Québécois or we aren't.

Don't forget, they're not just "francophone" according to that site, they are "100%" francophone, as if that really matters. Sorry Danslescouilleslisses.cons, what if I'm only 99.9789% francophone, does it mean I don't matter?

 

[Gamimenos]

That top line. I want that to work so much.

That is a weak line up...seriously

Are you really surprised that people are bashing DD for no freaking reason ? It's what's cool right now. Are you not following the trend ?
You must be related to DD...
