Look, these guys again. For the third time already this year, the Bulldogs (3-4-2) take on Rochester (6-3-0) in the annual loud screaming school kids game designed to increase the average attendance number. (based on +/- data from last game) Armia - Grigorenko - Carrier Schaller - Dalpe - Ellis Adam - Varone - Aliu Samuels-Thomas - Sundher - Catenacci Pysyk - McCabe Bagnall - Ruhwedel Petrecki - Gauthier-Leduc Makarov Bowman - Hensick - Hudon Carr - Andrighetto - Dumont Crisp - de la Rose - Thomas Nevins - Dowell - Macenauer Drewiske - Pateryn Finley - Dietz Bennett - Shea MacDonald Puck drop is at 10:15 AM, AM900 will have the play-by-play; click the banner below to listen.

For the first time in franchise history, the Bulldogs (2-3-2-0) take on Charlotte (2-5-0-0), affiliate of Carolina for a pair of afternoon games. Still no Nygren/Tangradi for Hamilton. Hudon - Andrighetto - Thomas Carr - Hensick - Dumont Bowman - de la Rose - Sorkin Nevins - Dowell - Crisp Bennett - Pateryn Drewiske - Dietz Finley - Ellis Condon LaRose - Sutter - Di Giuseppe Woods - Jenks - McGinn Nemisz - Holmstrom - Aleardi Hagel - Brown - Staal Rissanen - Jordan Carrick - Biega Murphy - Lowe MacIntyre Puck drop is at 12:00 PM Friday and 1 PM Sunday; AM900 will have the play-by-play, click the banner below to listen.

Pacioretty - Desharnais - Gallagher Galchenyuk - Plekanec - Parenteau Bourque - Prust - Bournival Moen - Malhotra - Weise Emelin - Subban Markov - Gilbert Tinordi - Weaver Price D. Sedin - H. Sedin - Vrbata Higgins - Bonino - Burrows Matthias - Richardson - Kassian Dorsett - Vey - Hansen Tanev - Edler Hamhuis - Bieksa Sbisa - Weber Miller This game will be televised nationally on SN 360 (I believe it will again be their PBP team with Jason York from Montreal's crew) while RDS has the regional coverage.

Since no one else got around to it and puck drop is 3 hours away, here's a quick GDT for tonight: Pacioretty - Desharnais - Gallagher Galchenyuk - Plekanec - Parenteau Bourque - Eller - Weise Prust - Malhotra - Moen Emelin - Subban Markov - Gilbert Tinordi - Weaver Price Hudler - Monahan - Colborne Gaudreau - Backlund - Byron Glencross - Stajan - Jones Bollig - Bouma - Jooris Giordano - Brodie Russell - Wideman Smid - Engelland Hiller With no morning skate today, there's no official lineup news for the Habs. That said, with Calgary being a more physical opponent and Beaulieu's less than impressive performance yesterday, I expect Tinordi will be back in at the very least. TV info: In French on RDS 2 (regional), in English on City Montreal and Sportsnet Flames, a companion channel to SN West (both regional as well).

For the second time already this year, the Bulldogs (2-2-2-0) are on the road to take on the Americans (4-2-0-0). At least this time, they're not off to Rochester...they're in Buffalo instead. Eric Tangradi and Magnus Nygren are both out for this road trip due to undisclosed injuries. Hudon - Andrighetto - Thomas Carr - Hensick - Dumont Bowman - de la Rose - Sorkin Nevins - Dowell - Crisp Bennett - Pateryn Drewiske - Dietz Finley - Shea MacDonald (based on +/- data from last game) Armia - Grigorenko - Carrier Dalpe - Larsson - Schaller Adam - Varone - Sundher Aliu - Ellis - Catenacci Pysyk - McCabe Bagnall - Ruhwedel Austin - Gauthier-Leduc Makarov Puck drop is at 7:05 PM, AM900 will have the play-by-play; click the banner below to listen.
