For providing that much entertainment, both teams deserved two points.
This was like the Thrilla in Manilla.
Six goals in the second period, four in the third.
And one 52 seconds into Overtime, by Brandon Sutter, who had a wide-open look to Carey Price’s glove side.
Great game.
Kevin Paul Dupont of the Boston Globe had the best tweet: “NHL moved its All-Star Game to Montreal tonight?”
Canadiens outshot the visitors 39-36 and battled back from deficits of 4-2 and 6-5.
Statistical oddity: Only one power-play goal, Sutter in the first period.
The seven goals on Price equal what he allowed in his previous four games.
The Canadiens have at laest a point in 10 straight games – first such streak since Feb. 23-March19, 1994.
Will they have anything left in Boston?
Last time 13 goals were scored at the Bell Centre: Oct. 21, 2006, Canadiens 8 – Colorado 5

Can’t wait for this one. Expecting a big game from Pleks and Price…
Sigh. Vokoun. Another former Hab who’ll sell his soul just to beat the Habs.
Figure if it was a Leafs game they’d waste 5 minutes pregame chatting with Martin Short?
The Habs will eventually get a tougher guy since Prusty can’t do it all…Look for the Habs to express interest in George Parros…This guy can play hockey and fight. They are still interested in another d-man to clear the net.
According to the Ottawa Sun, Bergevin is still interested in clearing more salary so probable candidates are Kaberle (zero trade value), Weber, Eller (who many general managers have called about).
The guy should be able to at least skate and fore check…
“You’re always, always, always looking to make your team better. Always.”- Marc Bergevin
Parros does that…and beside he won a Stanley Cup and actually played in the finals against Ottawa. He and Thornton were effective.
Parros played in 5 of Anaheims 21 playoff games that year. Not exactly a ringing endorsement.

Parros? Forget about it! Better heavyweights out there that can play the game.
Prust does need some assistance. Hate to see him get hurt doing all the dirty work. Don’t want a thug though. Eller shouldn’t be traded.
Why would MB trade Eller? He makes $1.3 million…a bargain.
“You’re always, always, always looking to make your team better. Always.”- Marc Bergevin
They he has played of late, would need a heck of a return.

The most I have ever seen in a photo was $2,000 but understand it ranges from $200-1,000 normally.
On the other hand, didn’t a coach get in trouble with the league over putting money on the board a couple seasons back?
Yeah, the coach can’t do it. Technically its a violation of the salary cap for anyone in management/coaching to offer money.

Nokes is a very good 13th forward if the injury bug hits.
Sorry man…rather see Dumont get a shot…more energy.
“You’re always, always, always looking to make your team better. Always.”- Marc Bergevin
oh agreed, i’m glad dumont is getting a shot. Just saying having Nokes back is good because when injuries hit (As they do for every team) it’ll be good to have him around
I hope he can contribute but man he has been out a long time…
“You’re always, always, always looking to make your team better. Always.”- Marc Bergevin
I’d rather see Nokes. I don’t want 4 forwards who are 5’8 and under on the same club.
Maybe if we didn’t already have Desharnais, Gionta, Gallagher in the lineup… but there is a limit to this before it starts to hurt you.

That Lundin hit was absolutely ridiculous. If he doesn’t get 5 or more games, this league will continue to be a joke.
Go Habs Go!

The league is cynical. If Crosby is expendable, then what hope is there for all the Lundins?
If Max got 3 for the Letang hit which was debatable, this is minimum 5.
“You’re always, always, always looking to make your team better. Always.”- Marc Bergevin
That’s a useful comparison.
Patches should have got more. I hope Zolnierczyk does as well, not holding my breath.
Are we ever going to see Nokelainen or is he finished?
He’s ready to play if needed. Hard to find a spot. Would you sit White for him?
Mike Boone
Hockey Inside/Out blogger
Don’t believe he is cleared for contact yet but is skating with the team finally.
A pesky Finn might be a nice flavour to try on the fourth line. Therrien might be the right coach for him. Like White though.
He’s ready to go? I thought I heard he had just started doing full practices with the team, and still needed some time.
And I wouldn’t sit anyone for him. I’d have him in the pressbox in case we get another injury though, I still think he’s useful depth, and there will be more injuries unfortunately.

Recovered from injury but not game-fit. If White continues as he has post-pressbox, that’s one place Noki would find hard to swipe.

I’m interested to know what everyone’s bottom line for a “successful” weekend for the team would be.
Four points?
Three?
Two?
One?
Playing both teams very tough in one-goal losses?
If they drop both, does the bandwagon empty?
Two or more and I’d say mission accomplished. Preferably more but two at least…

Four points.

Is it true Ryder gave Gallagher a Rolex for his number?
________________________________________
“Hey Richard, two minutes for looking so good!”
I heard it was an OJ and hamburger @ Orange Julep.
Gallagher joked that a Rolex was appropriate… other players were saying that he would be lucky to get a meal.
Anyone watching 24CH? Gallagher and Galchenyuk are hilarious. They argue like a married couple in the hotel room.
Which 24CH? Where can I see it online?
not sure about online, but I saw it on RDS
It’s in English on TSN Monday at 7:30 pm
Check out HabsTV, they have all of them.
Merci!
I loved that part, too. Very fun to watch!
For some reason, I have this feeling that Galchenyuk is just going to light it up tonight for about 3 or 4 points. Hopefully I’m right. Him, Eller and Ryder have the potential to be a very dangerous line.
Et Le But
I see this has been brought up in the comments below, and I have to agree 100% with Habfan10912, re. the Zolnierczyk hit on Lundin. I think it is sad that despite all the talks regarding headshots and dangerous plays, many (too many) players still don’t get it. What I find even more revolting, is that today’s players actually are aware of the repercussions of these hits, such as concussions, brain injuries, etc. A while ago, one could argue that they didn’t understand the seriousness of these types of injuries, but nowadays, I think it’s safe to say that players who still don’t care to change their game are just plain ignorant.
As for the coaches and owners, I can’t read their minds, but it seems like a lot are still considering concussions and brain injuries as simple headaches. It is mind boggling to me. (I mean, just the name of it, “brain injuries”, should be enough to understand that players’ safety is more important than a win).
I realize that it’s a fast game; incidents are going to happen, and hitting will always be a part of hockey (which is fine with me, physical games and clean checks have always occured), but as I wrote, the players know better than they used to when it comes to various head injuries… So to me, there’s no excuse to ignore the seriousness of it all, anymore.
Sadly, I think it’s going to take a serious incident before the league actually does something to get rid of that issue (and it could). Because I, for one, do not believe that giving a one, or two, or five-game suspension is enough to stop some recidivist players. Let’s just face a simple fact, there have already been (nearly) career-ending injuries, serious concussion cases, broken vertebraes… But it seems like it’s not enough to be really willing to make a change. I hope I’m wrong, though.
Sorry about the rant and long post, but I hate to see this great sport getting uglier and uglier (or maybe I’m just noticing these kinds of plays more than I used to)!
(Re-Bonjour, everyone, by the way. I haven’t posted for a long while, but have kept reading this site and its comments, as well as watching my Habs! Looking forward to two big back-to-back games!! Go Habs.)
KNUCKLEFARTS ARE DELICIOUS!!!
I’ll be happy with a win in either game, honestly.
Ok thanks. Cu my posts show up as written on December 31 1969 so I thought there might be a bug.

I wonder how Brandon Prust likes playing for a coach that lets him play hockey with Tomas Plecanec and Brian Gionta rather than sending him out to start a fight in the first ten seconds of the first period.
Apparently was part of the sales job from MB that he would play 3rd line minutes.
Speaking of scalpers, I learned the hard way at MSG last week, tried to pick up a pair out in front of the Garden for a Knicks game and offered far less than the face value, only to find out at the turnstile that the duckets were fake.
Lesson learned, as the old guy at the gate said, “don’t buy them outside!” At least the boys out front of the ACC and Centre Bell are honest.
If you call charging 5X face value being honest, then OK.
I guess the only MSG you like now is the same as your avatar…”extra MSG!”

“You’re always, always, always looking to make your team better. Always.”- Marc Bergevin
In regards to the Lundin hit and whether it’s an NHL or NHLPA problem, perhaps some of the blame can be attributed to the coaches that view a win above the safety of his own or his opponents’ players.
Fine them, properly. And the owners.
Shanahan has scheduled a meeting with him, didn’t catch if it was over the phone or in person though.

I think we’re seeing a much more restrained PK Subban this year.
Somebody who is much less inclined to lead an end to end rush as he’s done in previous years. I’m not sure if fans like this new version.
I wonder if it was ever considered to have him play forward?
…just be patient Phil, PK will burst out in time
…there is an adjustment period going on between PK and Therrien
That’s for all you Riberio haters….he’s better that Ovie and leads the team in points.We should never trade a hometown player like Ribs …just stupid!
…I think the era of dumping Homeboys for carpetbaggers has come to a close Stephen
The hate over here for Riberio has been unjustified for years,he’s a great hockey player who we let slip away .
…a bit obnoxious at times, but no questioning His skill and flair
Jacques Demers who’s a bit of a yes-man for the habs highly criticized the habs for letting go Ribeiro.
[Disclaimer]: I’m a hockey fan. I care about the habs, but probably not as much as you.
Riberio left the Canadiens due to illness. He was making everyone sick.
Ribeiro is a punk. Glad they kicked his sorry arse out of town.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PNw8ZZT8tOU
Ribiero has always been a “Me first and let’s party” type of guy. That was why he was sent away for nothing. It’s because, as a team first kind of guy, he isn’t.
That fake seizure in the playoffs against Boston was another good reason. (He was laughing on the bench a minute later)
It was the only time I was ever truly ashamed to be a fan of the Montreal Canadiens.
Ribeiro is a great playmaker.
Richard R
Price is an oyster. Unfortunately not all oysters produce pearls.
Ribeiro is a great forward on a non-playoff team.
Whether he can be a great forward on a Stanley Cup contender team is the question that has never been answered.
Ribeiro actually did have one great playoff run in his last appearance in the playoffs. But you have to go quite a ways back, to 2007-08, to find that appearance.
Nobody doubted his talent, but his work ethic and class has always been criticized, somewhat justifiably.
As I said earlier, I don’t think he had (or has) the intestinal fortitude to be a star in a hockey market, especially as a Francophone in Montreal.

While I think that Sidney Crosby is the best player in the world, I don’t think it is by the country mile that many seem to suggest.
Pavel Datsyuk has to at least be in the conversation given his defensive prowess.
And how far has Ovechkin tumbled in the last few years?
He could score but hed have never been a big deal if he had Crosby or Datsyuk’s personality …He was the PK Subban of forwards.
[Disclaimer]: I’m a hockey fan. I care about the habs, but probably not as much as you.
Quite far. But he’s still a heck of a player. He just desperately needs a change of scenery and a kick in the pants.
Now we agree. Superstar still lurks underneath there.
I think if you put him in a hockey market, he would thrive. But only if that team has a strong leadership core, both on the ice and in the administration.
You still see flashes of the old Ovie. I think he’s just quit on the Capitals. He wouldn’t be the first or last that does that.
Sorry its by a country mile. Not even close. In terms of prep, conditioning ,overall skill level, and his drive and determination sets him alone.
This guy is definitely in a class by himself. He doesn’t even have to win the scoring race and its still true.
That said the Habs win tonight!
Datsyuk is one of the best conditioned and hardest working athletes in the sport. And he gives up absolutely nothing in terms of overall skill level.
The big difference is the attention to detail for Datsyuk over the entire rink. He works just as hard in the defensive zone and in the neutral zone as he does in the offensive zone.
I agree that Crosby is the best. But Datsyuk is right there with him. The big advantage for Crosby is his age.
Disagree Chris, Crosby by a mile, but my kids are all over me so can’t explicate.
Saw Crosby once in a pair of shorts. His legs are tree trunks. Absolutely huge. Not only a great player but a physical specimen as well.
“You’re always, always, always looking to make your team better. Always.”- Marc Bergevin
It’s good to have contrarians I suppose. Would you seriously need to deeply contemplate selecting Crosby over Datsyuk if both were available?
Crosby at 26 years old is obviously better than Datsyuk at 34.
It’s not so much being contrarian…I think Crosby is the best as well. But I always hate how underrated Datsyuk is.
The scariest thing is how much better Crosby becomes in all aspects of the game. When everybody was talking up Ovechkin, you could just see Crosby say “Fine, I’ll go win a goal-scoring title.”
Then he became a faceoff wizard.
I have zero doubt in my mind that Crosby will become one of the best two-way forwards in the NHL as well, because he accomplishes whatever he sets his mind to. The kid is incredible.
Who would a team rather have for this season, and only this season? Crosby, and it’s not even a discussion
Of course.
My argument was merely that the gap between Crosby and the next group isn’t quite the gap that it is made out to be. For example, the current poll over at the NHL.com website is who is the top centre. The results are currently:
Sidney Crosby – 21.47%
Jonathan Toews – 20.52%
Steven Stamkos – 19.88%
Evgeni Malkin – 18.40%
Other – 19.73%
21.47% of people got the answer right. But the closeness of that vote tells you all you need to know about how close it actually is.
Toews and Datsyuk sacrifice offence but gain a lot of credit for defensive prowess, which is a massive advantage they hold over Crosby. You can probably throw Zetterberg, who often lines up as a centre but also plays wing on occasion, into the mix.
Stamkos is the best pure goal-scorer in the NHL today. Malkin can go head-to-head with Crosby whenever he is healthy.
Crosby is the leader of the pack. But if he falters even a bit, there is an unbelievably talented pack of centres (Toews, Datsyuk, Malkin, Stamkos, Zetterberg, and Giroux) nipping at his heels for supremacy.
Nobody would take Datsyuk over the rest of that group because of his age (34). I suspect Malkin would be a no-go now because of his injuries. But they are all guys that any GM would die to have on their team this season. All of them can go head-to-head with Crosby in any given playoff series and come out basically a wash. Claude Giroux showed this pretty emphatically in last year’s playoffs when he lit up the Penguins (6 goals, 14 points and +6 in 6 games) while often matched up against Crosby (3 goals, 8 points and -3 in 6 games).
Yes. Crosby at 26 is better than Datsyuk at 34. My point, not explicitly stated, was whether someone would select any current player in the NHL over Crosby assuming they all were at the peaks of their careers. If you really need to “think deeply” about who you would select, well….that speaks for itself.
Sure. There are plenty of people that worry about Crosby’s concussion history, for one. So I suspect there are GM’s that might think very carefully given the rather preposterous hypothetical choice between Toews, Crosby, Stamkos and Giroux, for example.
For me my number 2 is Toews, brings every element of the game from finesse to physicality, defense and offense. But I know I have a Bias.
Toews slightly over Giroux. Karlsson is fantastic too…
“You’re always, always, always looking to make your team better. Always.”- Marc Bergevin
Toews, Datsyuk, Malkin, Giroux, Stamkos, and Zetterberg are all just a step behind Crosby in my mind. And I think Tavares and Kopitar are arguable for that group as well.
…hmmm, was catching up after a day away …read the Pittsburgh fan blog link in the previous thread ….sounds as if the Flightless-ones’ fans are not very happy campers with their team and coach
…they are in first place in their conference …WHAT ???’s not to like ???
…Damn, Habs Fans get a deserved bad rap for eating Their own alive …but those Penguins fans look like an aquarium of piranhas, relatively making Habs Fans appear more like a sedate gold fish bowl
If Montreal wins tonight, MB should think about making a run for the cup.
[Disclaimer]: I’m a hockey fan. I care about the habs, but probably not as much as you.
Don’t see MB trading high draft choices or prospects for a rental this year.
“You’re always, always, always looking to make your team better. Always.”- Marc Bergevin
It wouldnt take much, a better backup goalie, a crease clearing d-man with a bit of size…You dont get many chances to go for it.

Yes, Cat those two for sure.
But in a playoff context, wouldn’t we need to score more than we do at present, current success notwithstanding?
I apologize in advance for the tone of this post. I sat down this afternoon to watch the Flyer Sens game and not 10 minutes into the game there was one of those dangerous, reckless, meaningless hits we’ve seen all too often recently. The Flyers Zolnierczyk absolutely creamed the Sens players Lundin. Leaving his feet and throwing his shoulder and forearm into Lundin’s head. I shut the game off after that and took a nap. When is this league going to learn? This game already has a reputation in the mainstream sports world of being barbaric and WWE like. And this hit will now be shown on sports highlight shows for the next 24 hours all over North America. Jokes will be made and ha ha ha’s all around.
Now Shanny and his cohorts will come up with a 3 to 5 game suspension complete with a video explaining how player A left his feet, made primary contact to players B head and announce the suspension. Then all the league execs will pat themselves on the back for a job well done. Then silence for a few days until the next dangerous, reckless, unnecessary hit comes along.
Folks, someone is going to get killed and it’s likely to happen soon. I think they are already killing our game. Just nauseating that we have to continue to watch these idiot players, and I mean idiots, assault their fellow players with total disregard. Maybe instead of a 5 game suspension Zolnierczyk ought to be made to play without any friggin pads for 5 games. Just a complete idiot.
Rant over. Sorry.
I didn’t catch all of it, but I found the sens were getting the shaft with the officiating in the third. Alfie got ejected.
[Disclaimer]: I’m a hockey fan. I care about the habs, but probably not as much as you.
Don’t be sorry.
The business end of hockey is convinced these hits are good for profit, however bad for players’ health. It’s immoral, but who cares?
If the NHL wanted to eliminate those hits, it would. (Significant suspensions and fines — for players, coaches and owners — would do it). But the NHL doesn’t want to eliminate those hits. Those Shanahan things are just window-dressing.
Like you, I feel sick on hits like that, irrespective of what team the recipient plays for.
What you said.
Did not see the hit, but like you said it will be on Coach’s corner tonite for sure. NHL has 2 problems with the Head shots or knee to knee:
1) Have to give very long suspensions in an intent to injure
2) Players don’t have any respect for each other and that unfortunatly is the problem of the NHL Players assn. not the NHL.
Mr. Biter
No Guts No Glory
That’s a good point.
Also, it’s hard for us to get inside players’ heads when you see so many of them, including non-fighters, insisting that they want to keep fighting in the game.
I don’t think this sport involves too many of the brightest minds, so to say. Especially in the past 10-20 years.
One will inevitably argue that the game used to be more violent, ie fights, brawls, and other brutality, and that may be true. But the fact is that we now have knowledge and technology available to use that shows us how dangerous these events are that was not always around. We’re talking BRAIN INJURIES. You ARE your brain, the rest is just attached. But this is okay… Tells me the game has gone dumberer.
I would take satisfaction in the league folding due to a huge NFL-like lawsuit as a matter of justice.
We could play Olympics-style hockey.
The league and networks believe this would lose millions of fans/viewers.
I think they’re horribly wrong.
And you’re right to suggest that only some kind of lawsuit — ie. financial pressure — will ever get them to shift. Meantime, more brain damage.
Look, they didn’t blink when they nearly lost their poster-boy.
Yeah, a frightening display of said stupidity.
I just saw the hit and it was brutal. That whole line of the Flyers was looking for trouble, as Zac Rinaldo came roaring in after the hit with his gloves off ready for fighting. To get crap like that out of the game it should be an automatic 10 game suspension and $250,000 fine to the team.

I don’t think we are in a portion of moral high ground. We all still watch. Isn’t attendance up this year? And the players know what they’re getting in to when they sign up (a la cole being traded, people have little sympathy there).
We can find it disgusting, I suppose, but this is the game.
A win tonight by the Habs catapults them past the Bruins into first place again.
Setting up a very interesting confrontation for 1st place tomorrow night.
Think Ryder will be psyched up to play Boston?
For once, I’d love to see even one of the players we acquired seek revenge upon his former team — like former Habs who do that to us.
You mean like Halak did to Price and the Habs when he played them?
Hmmm..maybe I ought to not have brought that up..

So the Leafs are off today, and its Habs-Pens coast to coast. So this means that Toronto’s 2 biggest fans will have no reason to discuss them during the first intermission? right?
You would think but they will talk about Kadri the Great for most of the telecast and show his hatty about a dozen times.
And how the league is out to get Toronto for Brown getting ejected last Wednesday….
Our Nemesis Marchand. Got the winner for Boston.
That was the name I was looking for. Gallagher vs. Marchand on the Ice at the same time. Should be interesting.
Mr. Biter
No Guts No Glory
Of course he did. And of course the Bruins came back from 2 down. And of course they got to play at 1:00pm while we play at 7:00pm.
God I hate them.
What was the double-minor in the last 5 mins? Was watching with the sound off and only saw Lucic kneeing the TB goalie in the head!
I keep waiting for him to come back to earth. His shooting percentage is just ridiculous right now.
That riberio kid is really good
Yeah, but he hasn’t got the guts to be a star in a hockey market.
As for tomorrow I don’t want to see prust fight lucic. Habs really don’t have anyone to handle lucic chara or thornton. I would leave them alone and skate away from them. But prust moen white bouillon can handle and should concentrate on laying a huge beating on ference Marchand Horton and boychuk. That is the game plan for tomorrow
I have a more plausible alternative. Just score more goals than the Bruins. That should be the game plan.
Non. Beat them on the scoresheet and in the alley. That’s the game plan
The Canadiens do not have the kind of team that can win “in the alley.”
Follow my game plan and we can
Thats what ‘foreign objects’ are for!

It would be so nice to have either of those guys on the Habs. Both of them would be even better.
We’ve got to play this like the Leaf game, just keep skating and hope we can wear their D down. No planned fights and nothing against their heavyweights. Boston had 3 guys we can’t out-muscle. A PK Marchand rematch would be fun late in the 3rd with a 3 goal lead. Let’s not look past the Pens tonight, they will be upset about their losing streak, we’ve got to jump them early, keep them from gaining confidence. Even if we don’t score, I hope we out-shoot them in the first.
‘a cannonading drive’
So, does anyone still see Guy Boucher as the future coach of the Habs?
Well, eventually yes, the list of possible candidates aint that big.
[Disclaimer]: I’m a hockey fan. I care about the habs, but probably not as much as you.
True, but he reminds me of Therrien 1.0, I am not sure that abrasive style still works in the NHL.
Mike terrien is so good we won’t be looking for another coach for another 10 years
At the Saloon with the Lads and that Andi Lass is the star of the show so far. 2nd place is Delaet, third is the Italian tilt in the Jets game. Now if on homeboy Erskine could get a Gordie Howe……
Habs HAVE to get that guy names Klinkhammer. Come on! You can’t do better than that.

Does anyone still give a damn about seeing “the great Sidney Crosby”? I’m not being a d!ck, jw what the consensus is out there. I really don’t give a shoot, but I never really did…
yes.
ummm, yeah, still best player in the world.
I never saw him as exciting, he doesnt have that razzle-dazzle like Datsuyk.
[Disclaimer]: I’m a hockey fan. I care about the habs, but probably not as much as you.
He’s the greatest player in the game right now, bar none.
Yep. No one is even close to Crosby.
Love to see him in a Habs jersey.
Mr. Biter
No Guts No Glory
Like Ovechkin,Crosby grew up a Habs fan.
Unlikely either one of them will ever suit up for the Habs,although at one point in time,seeing Gretzky in a uniform other than the Oilers was unthinkable.
True. But Gretzky’s best days were behind him by the time he was traded to Los Angeles.
Never any love for the defensemen…
[Disclaimer]: I’m a hockey fan. I care about the habs, but probably not as much as you.
It’s this simple: If you like hockey, you enjoy watching good players. And there’s no one better than Crosby.
Mike Boone
Hockey Inside/Out blogger
Yep. AND he’s a winner — unlike, say, Ovechkin.
I do. I’m Habs since forever but Sid grew up not far from me and I never pass up a chance to see him play, nobodys better. Having said that, “Let’s go Habs.”

I would skip the Peg if I were you unless it’s just passing through to catch a jets game

I suspect the family forum rules of this site prevent Frontenac from answering Timo.
Damn,Andi is looking good today!
Since some journalists are chucking stuff to the wall and hoping it sticks I’ll take a shot at it.
Sometime in the next few weeks Brian Gionta and Yannick Weber get traded to the Sharks for Matt Pelech and a 1st round pick.
Ya know, on a side topic, do you really think we would trade Gionta this season?
I wouldn’t mess with the chemistry any more this season, but of course I’m not as knowledgeable as MB.
That being said, it seems our Habs are tight and the locker room atmosphere is quite positive, so removing the captain could change things. That being said, Gio either takes a pay cut and plays a diminished role after his contract is up, or they move him in some way.
Cole was a pretty big hit in the room from day one. He got moved.
Nothing would surprise me. Bergevin doesn’t give me the impression that he cares about the feelings of his players, or rather doesn’t value it more than business decisions.
Okay, so I am not saying Ovechkin doesn’t deserve cristicism, but listening to Healy and Stock jump on the Milbury bandwagon is hilarious. It’s like Milbury is their Obi Wan Kenobi.
Two Italian Lads duking it out in Winnepeg.Good Tilt!
Looks like we are heading into the game as underdogs now that Boston has beaten Tampa.
You make a funny but interesting point.
Whey are people so surprised around here when Boston wins a friggin hockey game?
As much as most of us despise them they are one of the league’s better teams.
Us beating them would be a surprise. Definitely falls into the category of games this team isn’t supposed to win.
Yah, while I hate to admit it, Boston has virtually no weaknesses in their lineup. I can never forgive Ottawa for how they mismanaged their team allowing Chara to walk away and into Boston’s hands as a UFA.
Toranta helped them most, by taking away Kessel and giving two #1 picks.
I beg to differ.
We’re very capable of beating those buffoons.
We proved that last time in the playoffs. We can beat them and not be surprised. Let’s have faith in the team.
Big difference between capable and expected.
You’re right, there be a difference, but let’s not be surprised when we beat them, we can do it.
I expect Canadiens to get 3 out of 4 points on the weekend. Boston/Montreal will be tight checking with overtime loss or win.
wjc
Actually our line-up is much better than the last time we played the Bruins. Remember Staubitz never got to play against the Bruins last year. I do expect some fistcuffs from Prust and one of a number of Bruins (hopefully Lucic) and a sound beatdown of same Lucic would make my Sunday. Also looking forward to B Gally playing vs. the weasel from the Bruins.
Mr. Biter
No Guts No Glory
No Bourque or Diaz.
Good point, but still 2 Gally’s, Ryder, Markov,Prust are upgrades from last year and last year Bourque sucked.
Mr. Biter
No Guts No Glory
Montreal cannot fight with Boston, they have to use their strengths speed, passing, power play. Fighting is not Canadiens strength at the moment and they will stick to hockey.
wjc
No, but if the Bruins are down by a couple and try to repeat the “Beatdown” we do have more “Beef” available so it won’t happen again and yes a fast mobile defense will move the puck out, but we still have to protect Price from them running him ala Lucic/Miller last year.
Mr. Biter
No Guts No Glory
Boston’s going to go for our Achilles heal “Habs lil Defense” tomorrow.Wonder how it’s gonna work out for us
The Canadiens are smaller on defence, but fast and mobile. They will work on quick out of the zone passes and Boston will have to repect that.
Canadiens will move puck quickly and keep Boston back. Fighting is over rated and Lucic will have to be skating his hardest to keep up.
wjc
Totally agree. Toronto tries to bring the same game, but with a little less scoring punch.
Folks, I bloody hate the Boston Bruins.
They are the worst team in the NHL in terms of the disgust-factor.
They get these ridiculous calls their way, all the time, and it is not beyond the realm of sanity to associate that with their league connections.
Putting that aside, they got an extremely easy schedule to start the year, and other teams are making them look better than they are.
Tampa blew a 2-0 lead to them, now they think they’re good!
I hope we pulverize them tomorrow, looking at their smug looks makes me sick, as I know it makes all you nauseous.
I hope our Habs win two straight this weekend, and that Boston rethinks their image of being good to one of being scum.
Amen.
Boston is exactly good as they’re advertised. The only questions surrounding that team is whether they can thrive without Chara and whether Tukka Rask can hold up playing the majority of the games.
Hypothetically? Or, did something happen to Chara?
Hypothetically
Damn you Loonie, I’m trying to sling mud at them.
Not to sound super Hab biased, which I am, but Boston has some horseshoes where the sun don’t shine.
Perhaps the theory makes me feel better, but I’m telling you, that team is not as good as they have been playing. They’ve benefited from playing bad teams and being able to score opportunistic goals. Of course, beat bad teams and score those goals, good teams do, but they have an irritating air about them.
I honestly don’t think they are as good as their record. We can beat them, and I would put money on the Habs in a 7 game series, and not hesitate about it.
Now, this may be the part where you call me crazy, but let’s entertain our favourite HIO conspiracy – that their league connections are used to produce advantages against other teams in many ways. Is this out the realm of the possible? I don’t think so. Before telling me I’m comparing different things here, let me clarify that this is just for the purpose of example.
Look at soccer, there have been many match fixing scandals and other issues of the sort, and indeed, through almost every sport, there have been similar issues. It is not crazy to think that in the NHL, some people are pulling some strings in ways that benefit a particular team.
Am I nuts for thinking this? I’d rather this not be true, of course, but I wouldn’t be surprised if the old boys club made concessions to each other every now and then.
They’re irritating no doubt. I also have no doubt that they’ve received preferential treatment from the fellas in Tronna. But from top to bottom they are definitely better than us. I think the Habs can beat them, but I’m not betting on it in a seven game series.
I’ll bet for you!
Call me biased, but I don’t think they are that much better than us.
What separates them from other teams is their confidence, which makes them play well. Of course that is an important factor, but in the playoffs, that swings back and forth, and I think the Habs can take the edge if they win a few games and make a statement by playing well themselves.
Every league has outcomes that they desire.
[Disclaimer]: I’m a hockey fan. I care about the habs, but probably not as much as you.
You my friend are a ‘homer’. Conveniently forgetting Canadiens home game advantage. Canadiens had several home games and this helped them.
Montreal will not pulverize Boston tomorrow, although, I predict Montreal will win the game. Everybody looks smug when they win.
Boston is a good team…..get over it. They are built for toughness and Montreal is built for speed, interesting contrast of styles.

So one of my brothers back in the Peg has a daughter who recently moved here and works in Toronto. He calls me this morning and says, hey I am going to come out for the TOronto vs. Wpg game March 16th, can you get us 4 tix.
Apparantly I will have a chance to breakout the new retro Jets #9 jersey with Hull on the back of it sooner than I thought. Now I just have to find 4 tickets….
I’m going to the Habs vs Jets game near the end of the season with one of my friends whose got season tickets. Looking forward to wearing the Habs jersey which has not been worn since we lost last year when I went to a Habs /Jets game (Habs lost 3 or4-0) and had to walk around the Palimino club afterwards for 4 hours wearing it.

Jets / Caps game .Big John Erskine giving a clinic on D zone authority.
You could pick up one player for one of the second round picks we have this year, who would it be and why?
And let’s try to make the trade plausible
To make it plausible, who’s selling?
Sidney Crosby because he’s worth way more than a second round pick.
Vokoun has always been a Habs killer. I wouldn’t count on him having a bad night.
Gonna be a horrible loss tonight and a heartbreaker in shoot out tomorrow.
Didn’t know you were a Senators fan, you really think they’ll lose to Islanders in a shoot out tomorrow?
See those alien eyes? Must be an out of this world psychic.

However, you should probably take down the Price poster in your bedroom.
Yes, Halak should have been the keeper. At least we got Eller out of it. That $6.5MM is WAY more than Price deserved (by $2.5MM). He has yet to show that he is anything more than an average or a tad above average goalie.
Budz all the way… in fact I would trade price to Vancouver for Lapierre while his value is high!

Seriously it was a tie game. Both teams played equally well and equally sh!tty. I can live with both sides winning one point each.
