dlbalr Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 Tampa Bay: Downie - Stamkos - St. Louis Moore - Lecavalier - Connolly Pyatt - Thompson - Purcell Labrie/Malone* - Tyrell Kubina - Brewer Clark - Gilroy Gervais - Mikkelson Bergeron Garon * Malone skated yesterday without issues so he may very well suit up. P-C Labrie will play otherwise. Montreal: Cammalleri* - Plekanec - Gionta Pacioretty - Desharnais - Cole Moen - Eller - Kostitsyn* Darche - Nokelainen - Blunden Gorges - Subban Gill - Kaberle Emelin - Diaz Price * - Cammalleri/Kostitsyn both missed today's skate and thus have to be assumed as questionable. Emelin, despite taking a shot to the face in practice yesterday, will play with a full cage. Cunneyworth noted he likes the idea of dressing 7 D which suggests one of the 4th liners will come out of the lineup. Puck drop is at 7:00, on CBC and RDS.

xXx..CK..xXx Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 I expect a big win from our boys tonight. I'm still in the minority and am hoping for a turn-around this season! Screw lottery picks. If it happens, great I guess, but it will NEVER be something I wish for. Prediction: Habs 4-2or3 Lightning. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyhasbeen Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 I agree it is not too late to right the ship, however we are taking on water at a fast pace and if we don't string wins together now we will soon be too far gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurdBurglar Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 With all the trade talks, think the reason for Cammy and AK46 missing the morning skate might be their on the move? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KamalPanesar Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 With all the trade talks, think the reason for Cammy and AK46 missing the morning skate might be their on the move? Hehe....doubt it, but anything is possible. In all likelyhood they are tending to minor injuries. That being said, how do you feel about Cammy, AK46 and a pick for Ryan Getzlaf? :-O Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering Cammalleri missed the last game day skate and is still on the team, I don't think it's happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That being said, how do you feel about Cammy, AK46 and a pick for Ryan Getzlaf? :-O It sounds great, but if that is our 2012 first rounder it has a legit chance to be a lottery pick, and Getzlaf can be a UFA in one year and a half. How would you feel about handing Anaheim that high a draft pick and watching Getzlaf walk as a UFA after playing less than 1.5 seasons for the Habs?

Especially if we miss the playoffs this year anyways!!! No playoffs, give up a potential lottery pick AND have him walk - way too much of a risk. That's why I don't want anything to do with him, unless its an off-season move, where are given an opportunity to sign him first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commandant Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 I'd like AK re-signed before the deadline, if not signed then traded. I agree with you on his value, but can't risk him walking for nothing. As for a Getzlaf sign and trade, he can't be given an extension before July 1, 2012... so any trade for him during the season is a risk as habfan29 points out.

Habsy Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 I'm looking forward to tonights game. Let's see if the RC approach continues. Glass half full would say the team is driving to the net more, and sitting back less. The schedule is favorable this month, let's keep er going!!

How would you feel about handing Anaheim that high a draft pick and watching Getzlaf walk as a UFA after playing less than 1.5 seasons for the Habs? Horrible. You don't make that, or any move, for Getzlaf unless you can sign him long term. That has to be part of the deal (getting a compensatory pick in return if he walks. The bottom line is that Getzlaf is EXACTLY the type of player the Habs need, but they don't need a rental...they need a legit No.1 center to build around and, giving up Cammy, AK and a pick for a guy that might walk in July is a non-starter...

I want AK46 back as well, but I doubt he will. I think he is someone who has been under appreciated by the the habs brain trust (and by "brain" i'm being very generous).

JMMR Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Well here we go. Would you all rather the Habs move forward in the standings and finish 11th like 2000-2001 or keep losing and get as close as possible to 30th? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KamalPanesar Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 I really hate to agree with PJ Stock, but the losers protesting outside piss me off. There was about 100 people...I dare say that means it was a bit of a pitiful showing for the "protest"....one with little backing, imo, aside from the politicians who trumpet the cause.
