Cole is the rock that helps Pacioretty being a lone power forward skater.
They communicate this is the key, look at them, they always talk to each other.
Desharnais does a fairly good job between them. Good enough not combo Plek with
small wingers and still add points on the score sheet.
Bu the way Diaz is really impressive in these kind of games.
-
Early days but... Gomez has been our best forward! How's that for a "how're you doin'?"
When AK is back i'd keep Gomez on Eller wing.
This sounds a little weird but AK and Eller works well and Gomez has the ability to change speed
to enter the zone and has some passing skills.

5.11 182 pounds...ok Carolina and Isles are not heavyweight teams but what can he do
with no reach, no weight-strenght experience...
Good luck.
-
Plek is playing with the injury that took him off the Phoenix game if i am not
mistaken i remember the hit but more so the concern that he is playing with
the injury.
Question there is should he play when a simple collision with a referee put's him in
pain.
I see less speed and slower pivot.
Long term injury to Plek would not be good, not good at all.
Other options ? Nothing really great but they are playing without lots of key players
one more one less...
-
Palushaj will get playing time again with Cammelleri and AK out, showcase
him and trade him back for whatever.
Point wise Avtsin is doing worse than last year. We've been sold a
scoring machine or is broken harm early in his career made him a bust.
Leblanc is pretty quiet, shoots but doesn't have a shooting weapon, more a passer
he is good at a lot of things but not really good at most of things
. -
Back to the game, Does Edmonton really plays good defense or there is nobody
there to make a tape to tape pass. I will take option 2.
Sadly if he doesn't score Eller will play wing next game.

Kovalev and Ryder!
I meant never seen from him. I am an old basta seen lot's of 30 goals scorers my favourite 30goal
scorer was Muller because he could do much more than just scoring and still score 30 goals.
-
No goal for Subban in 13 games.
Cammalleri will have to clutch some time if he is a 30 goal scorer. Wich i never seen in a habs uniform.
-
I would not like lose AK for nothing but i would send him to Nashville with his brother
for let's say...Jonathon Blum.
-
Claude Julien was not a happy camper. I would like to send him a message
if i could.
Mister Julien, you are sitting in JM spot right now. Last place of the conference
after 10 games is not looking good, just like you. Nobody really likes you,
you are very near to be fired, you represent the old generation of coaches,
maybe Chiarelli should fire your friend Jarvis.
Have a bad day.
-
This must feel good cuz he had quite a time to think about his game.
We will see with time and hopefully he will play different of what i've seen
last year in junior hockey.
Again a center was drafted but most probably a winger will be developed.
He had low FO% and couldn't use his speed.
A lot of ice time and no more injuries is what i hope for him.
-
The power play system was not geared from day 1 of the season. The whole coaching staff
missed the camp because of the so said injuries.
If the camp had always regular line 1 PP and line 2 PP the players would have more cohesion on the ice.
But it's the players who are missing the scoring chances, not the coach.

Marco Sturm is out of Vancouver!!!!!
Worst signing ever.
Deal is:
Reinprecht
Booth
3rd in 2013
for
Sturm
Samuelson
I love the deal, don't know if Booth or Reinprecht are good anymore, but I HATE watching Sturm and Samuelson on the ice.
It's a HUGE upgrade for Vancouver, Booth brings speed and size to Kesler, Booth always winged diminutive centers,
while skating the zone, Weiss never wins or even goes in the front of the net for the rebounds.
Reinprecht will not unstabilise bottom 9 but reinforce it, when he plays of course.
Samuellson is a t the end of the line, so does Sturm overrated and very much more a third line winger.
Vancouver needed a seconfd line winger with speed and got it. Whatever is % shooting he creates chances.
Kesler will finish them.
Knowing Booth was on the market for so cheap i don't know why Gauthier didn't go for it. Florida wanted
$$players to dump at the end of the year. I like him but AK46 would have fit the bill.
-
Muller is doing good in Milwaukee.

I'd be happy if Eller was playing Center.
It's all start with strong C and a good goalie and you don't mess it up.
Hopefully Desharnais will be converted in a winger ro we do not
have to plut Moen on top 9 f.
And i'll repeat even if Cole inly scored 2 goals out of 26 last year he had freakin Staal
and Skinner to score the goals while he was making room.
-
Cole had one bad shift, and he should get benched? Doesn't he get benched every power play opportunity
Montreal get ? to play Darche or Desharnais.
Gauthier spent 4.5 million on a player and the coach doens't know how to use him.
Half season, people will bum Cole for not scoring.
If only AK46 and Cole started the game with Plek it would have change the dynamic.
I would accept AK46 to play with Eller, but with Desharnais it's a waste.
I'll take a break i am sick of this.
-
Weber, Darche and Engvist is not what we can cal a force in PK. Weber doesn'T take his amn or stick,
Darche couln't read a play in the making,
Emelin, Gomez, Gionta. could make more sense.
Even then play Gorges with Gill for two minutes.
-
Finally a big save for Price. Could be a tonic.
2PP goals i know, but nothing unstoppable.
If the habs hopes to win the goalie have to stand on his head, all the time.
-
Finally we have two role players for heavier forechecking yet not goonswith defensive abilities.
Moen and and Betts.
I think we will see the best of Moen with less expectation of him being the lone
big guy up front.
If some players get abused, 5 forwards in that line up can give opponents big checks
and three of them can score goals, + two big guys with reach and defense.
-
Campoli is ok. Well the ok that he will last with heads down.
This is more what it will lool like thursday from this morning line up
Pacioretty-Gomez-Gionta
Kostitsyn-Plekanec-Cammalleri
Darche-Desharnais-Cole
Moen-Engqvist-Weber
Gill-Subban
Gorges-Campoli
Spacek-Diaz
I am surprise to see Cole on the third line but as soon as AK46 will slow down
Cole is with Plek.
Diaz over Weber and Yemelin, gotta give it to Diaz he himproved
throught the camp.
What does Engqvist does to stay there ? Can he play good penalty killing ?
Can he win faceoffs ? Hopefully Eller is back soon but even then Desharnais
is not a 4th liner grinder, but he can both play PK and PP.
-
With Campoli possible concussion, my guess is two weeks waiting for no trauma,
Markov still out, Gorges had already two tough hits at his knee. It is more than important
to keep bodies in Montreal.
Having a tough nail aroud like Yemelin who won't back down is a must keep here.
Weber's a keeper too starts slows and somehow gets geared in november.
Great to have around for his point boom shot too.
Diaz has some moves, he can work them as being the number one guy in Hamilton.
If sky falls down Woywitka could play a couple of games, AHL bound.
So it's not good but looks like this to start the season.
Gill- Subban
Spacek- Gorges
Yemelin-Weber
-
Campoli can skate, Gill is and always be slow and Spacek rejuvanated legs won't hold long
if overplayed.
Could log + 22 minutes, play some second wave PP and will make a good pair with Gorges.
-
Dumont at the right place, hard worker.
Archambeault has wheels tonight, he wants the puck and has the moves.
Beaulieu was a steal, near future top 4.
I like this small guy too, Gionta
Not much more to say except that Schultz looks slower than Hall Gill.
Palushaj is invisible again.
-
From what i think.
Pearn will do special team.
Cunneyworth mostly Muller job, link between the coach to the players and
life on the bench.
Ladouceur is the first real defensemen to coach D since Lappy i think.
Has a lot of young D to work with.
Not bad.
Not flashy either.

Bergfors would be a cheap bargin. I saw no source on the net but CBS broke it on tv
bottom line.
But there must be something wrong with him. Three teams already gave up on him.
Could fit the bill for a week or two until we get some healthy players.
