  Really? you don't remember Carbo using Mark Streit on the 4th line/PP specialist? Because I do ;) Remember that sweet goal he scored against Boston in the first round in '08?

  don't know if anyone else noticed this, but my gf pointed out a pretty ridiculous freudian slip on the part of darren pang on TSN... comparing Subban to Pietrangelo he said piet does things "the white-the right way"  any one else catch it?

  Well, the habs pack a hell of a game into 20 minutes... Too bad about the league conspiracy blocking the games from only being 20 minutes long... Otherwise #25 wouldn't seem so unreasonable

  one point about dropping huet yesterday: the loss of his salary opens up alot of room to make any last minute call ups we could want. on a seperate note, as good as the higgins koivu ryder and kostitsyn plekanec kovalev lines were last night, i'm convinced the bros. k would develop into a powerhouse on the same line together. just for the hell of it, imagine the line ups looking like this: higgins plekanec kovalev kostitsyn grabovski kostitsyn latendresse koivu ryder lapierre chipchura begin higgins and pleks have played together before and played well when they did. plekanec and kovalev already play well together, so why not try it out? the kostitsyns are great whenever they're on the ice together, and a guy with grabovskis speed is only gonna make that line better. if he works on his faceoffs, that line could do alot of damage. koivu and ryder look like they finally woke up, so adding latendresses size along the boards might help, since he can back up koivu when he loses those battles on the boards (and then gets a hooking penalty right away after he lost the puck), so his grit on the boards will open up pucks, and all koivu has to do is give a nice feed to ryder. for the fourth line, i always felt lapierre and begin should play together, and i never thought chipper deserved to get sent down. he's a strong 2 way center, and the laps and begin bring alot of energy to every game, so that line could definitely wear down the oppositions defence. Again this is just for fun. I like the team the way it is now, but u never know, maybe a little good old fashioned carbonneau chemistry experiment might make thigns even more interesting. Any thoughts or suggestions?
