The Habs have better offense this time around, but Toronto will have the crowd.

Really? The last few years, whenever the habs score at the ACC, you'd swear they were in the Bell Centre. I even heard the Olé, Olé, Olé chant a few times!

In any case, I can't believe i'm gonna miss tonights game.

Go Habs Go

4-2 Habs

Sorry to hear Betts is out, but great to see Engqvist get drawn in, still dont like Betts signing, but depth can never hurt i guess.

The goat let 2 defensive specialists go this summer. One of whom had a very good faceoff. Because there are so few whistles in todays game and the faceoffs on penalties are in your zone, faceoffs are much more important than they used to be. Betts isn't a wizard but his faceoff is better than Enqvist or White. The team needed a player of his mold and I think we will be glad to have him as the season progresses.

I should have explained my point about less whistles because that would tend to make you think the faceoff is less important if there are less whistles. We all know that when icing the puck, the line which ices the puck must stay on the ice. Before if you lost a faceoff, you could grab on, slow the other guy down, and if the puck ended up along the boards, you could freeze the puck and get a line change to get your good faceoff guy out there. Now if you lose the faceoff, you have to regain posession and make your play. There are now less options if you do not win the faceoff.

I can't seem to find a 'legal' stream (I'll use this to remind that illegal stream posts will be deleted for reasons that have been explained enough over the years) beyond CBC's which I sadly don't think is available in the States.

Haha cbc drawing parelels between Price and Reemer. Clutch and grab holy crap!

They are dreaming. The rebound control alone shows the difference between the two.
