Apparently Neuvirth is starting for the Islanders. That's a bit surprising, especially since Neuvirth wasn't particularly sharp earlier in the week when he played.

Thanks guys

I was honestly about to say I bet Beaulieu plays tonight

Therrien has pulled this card before, take a player off a regular line/pairing in practice to put the fear of a healthy scratch in him and send a message, then put the player back for the next game. We'll see if the message gets through and Beaulieu plays a bit better than he has lately. If not, the next step is to actually scratch him.

Exactly what I was thinking and your definitely right; bad game tonight, he'll probably be in the pressbox Monday

There's so much depth on this team that I don't think the players or the fans should take offense to anybody getting scratched for a particular game. They are going to need everybody going if they plan on making a deep run in the spring.

Neuvirth

at least these lines finally make sense. Hopefully they can least at least through the 1st period.

Looks like he popped his shoulder out on a faceoff.

Another top notch offensive period, I think they had 2 scoring chances.

He's out for the game.

The Habs had more than two scoring chances though. The Isles picked it up towards the end of the period but I didn't think it was that bad of an effort.

That was a much better 2nd period from the Habs. The Plekanec line executed a 3-on-2 perfectly and Pacioretty scoring his 2nd SHG in as many nights is pretty nice too. Eller had a good pass to set that one up although Neuvirth couldn't have bungled that much worse.

And yes, that was a nice save from Price. Even though Martin didn't get much of anything on it, that was still pretty impressive.
