What are you talking about...I eat healthy and poop out a giant Grabowski every morning....

It sounds like Versteeg is out for this game which is a nice break for the Habs.  Theodore gets the nod in net for Florida.

Ah, good old Now Way José. Winner of The Worst Inexplicable Career Melt-down in Habs' History award. Gomez is runner-up in that excruciating category.

 

I always liked him, though. Just hope he lets in a few softies tonight

 

We'll find out more about our team's mental resiliency, and Therrien's coaching, tonight. These are the times that try teams' souls.

I will be at this game!!! I'm from Boston, so the tickets were always too much, but this is my first game since I saw the Habs in the Forum in 1996!!!!  My tickets are 10 rows from the ice in the right hand corner.   45 bucks!!!!  Plus, Price will be in front of me for two periods, so I will get to see Emelin crush someone live!

Very happy day.

Plus my girlfriend has parent teacher conferences at her school tonight, so that saves me the argument.

Nothing will ever beat the first night Jose came back to Montreal.  For the first period he was an absolute beast.  Stopped several sure goal situations.  And then...

 

The Montreal PA system started playing Paris Hilton's song.

 

The TV camera went right to Jose's face and he looked visibly angry.  Suddenly, he just started letting in goal after goal before being pulled.

 

One of my favourite game moments ever.

On February 3rd, against Ottawa, I was sitting in section 417, row B  (that only leaves C and D behind me in the whole Bell Center).

 

I paid 44,25$.

The hockey here is bad, the prices are great!  I have season tickets up in 424, middle of the section, and it's 7 dollars per ticket.  People can scoff at the nosebleeds, but you can see every odd man rush develop, and watching the powerplay from up there can't be beat.

When you're seeing NHL hockey at Jr. C prices, it doesn't matter where you're sitting, it's a great deal.

Not only is Versteeg out, but they're also missing Upshall, Bergenheim, and Jovanovski.  That's a few useful players out for them.  (I've also updated the expected lines/injury/scratch info for the Panthers.)

for 7$, I can have a beer at the Bell Center.  Oh wait, no it's 11$...

[habscout]

Lovett,  I hope the Habs come through with a win for you !

[habscout]

By the way....GO HABS GO!

 

Looks like I'm the first tonight.

[Helmethead]

What the hell, I'll take sloppy seconds..

 

GO HABS GO!!

[brobin]

Lol, cost more to see the Belleville Bulls...of course, the Bulls could probably beat Florida....

[habscout]

Watching the game on TV...must be the FLA feed.  Wow...I cannot believe the number of empty seats in the lower bowl, center area!  The end sections seem to have a fair number of fans though.  Sign of the financial troubles in Florida.

[brobin]

Man, the goalie interference penalties are being called tight...except against Buffalo...

[brobin]

PP time,,,

Was going to say that. Pitiful. 

[JMMR]

Eller has lost both his faceoffs so far.

DD looks great so far tonight.

Its horrible for every team.

The seats behind the benches are ones with perks for the ticket holders.  The thing is, the perks are better than the seats themselves I was reading; it's not that they're not at the game...they're just elsewhere at the arena.  It's like the lower bowl seats in Toronto.

 

As for the game itself, that period nearly put me to sleep.

[dlbalr]

The Habs are 33% on faceoffs so far and the 4th line centre has taken half of the total draws.  That last bit is a bit strange.  Pacioretty-Galchenyuk-Gallagher have all played under 4 minutes so far, I thought they were going to get more ice time?

Cole headed to the locker room.
