illWill Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 Before looking at their lineup, I probably only would have been able to name half of Carolina's team. That being said, I am going to predict a stinker from the Habs in this one and it still might be enough to get the win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Stogey24 Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 Habs are a pretty shitty looking team on paper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
habs rule Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 OK Let's call this a major losing streak. 2 losses in a row is simply not acceptable. I want The Habs to take the wind out of the hurricanes. They are a bunch of pussies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JGC21 Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 I never thought I'd see a lineup that has Gallagher, Byron, Desharnais, Andrighetto, Terry and Hudon. Talk about small... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Stogey24 Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 Plekanec was so soft on that puck along the boards there. Almost led to a goal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlbalr Posted November 19, 2016 Author Share Posted November 19, 2016 The Habs had a few good shifts to start but it was a yawner after that for the rest of the period. Games against Carolina rarely seem to be entertaining lately... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JGC21 Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 Hudon with an assist. Mark my words, Desharnais won't be on the Habs by Christmas - there are simply better options (like Hudon) that fill his spot and are cheaper. Desharnais needs a change of scenery and a fresh start somewhere else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlbalr Posted November 19, 2016 Author Share Posted November 19, 2016 Although it was a very boring period, it was a great one by the Habs who kept Carolina quiet for almost the entire frame. Hudon's having a nice game, better than what Andrighetto was bringing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
