Tomorrow, the Habs will play their 41st game which would be a half season during a normal NHL schedule.
Do you think the Habs would had been as successful over a true regular 82 games season ?
Let's go back in September and October 2012 and imagine the line up they would had put on ice for the season opener. Bourque was injured. Noke was, I think. No way Galchenyuk would had made the team after having played a handful of games at OHL level the year before. Gallagher would had possibly started in Hamilton like he did. Therrien and his coaching staff would possibly have had a bit more difficulties dictating their "NO Excuses" motto. Would Cole would had showed up in better mental and physical shape ? Who would had played LW with Plekky and Gionta ? Moen ????? Would PK had signed before the start or after 10-15 games of the season ?
Possible line up back in October
Paccioretty - Desharnais - Cole
Moen - Plekanec - Gionta
Prust - Eller - Leblanc (healthy)
Geoffrion (healthy) - White - Blunden - Dumont - Armstrong - Palushaj ?????
Defence and goaltending would had been the same.
So, would the Habs have the same record over their 41 first games ? And would the Habs had finished with a 52-19-11 records for 115 points ?
