  1. I wonder when the refs are going to find their whistles. So many non calls in that first period.
  2. So glad it is Demidov And that the Habs chose someone who could pronounce his name
  3. Let's go! Looking forward to hearing the Habs make their selections.
  4. Brian, any idea how much his bonus for scoring 20 goals will be?
  5. Good to see Montreal traded Allen for anything at all. I've never been a fan of his, and his time was overdue to leave. Now Montreal will get more opportunities to see what they have in Primeau as their backup.
  6. Has anyone heard any rumours what the injury is to Struble? I hope it's not serious, although I am glad to see Kovacevic back in the lineup.
  7. Oh that's no coincidence. Let's hope he plays a decent game, and the Habs jettison him to New Jersey for ... anything.
  8. Pezzetta scored a nice goal too. Tough to watch ex-Hab Charlie Lindgren being pulled, but I don't really blame him for any of those goals. I am very surprised at Montreal's start tonight. Washington looks listless though.
  9. Slick Nick gets a rebound off the post to put the Habs up 2-0 ! Quelle surprise!!
  10. Caufield dishes a beautiful saucer pass to Suzuki, and he puts it in the net. Habs up 1-0 !
  11. You may be right. It's also possible that with New Jersey very close by and in need of a goaltending improvement, the Devils could be the target team interested in Primeau.
  12. Negated by Harris panic puck over glass penalty; took Flyers 29 seconds to score PPG/
  13. I can't remember a time when the Habs scored on every official shot on goal in the first period. This may be a team record! Let's see if someone in the media or on Twitter will confirm that.
  14. Close call on the Flyers scoring chance, had to go to a refs video review. It was not clearly over the line no matter what angle they showed. Refs [finally] made the right call.
  15. Montreal has 2 shots and 2 goals. Gotta love that. Savard got credit for the goal later.
  16. Good shot by Barron, and a great tip by Monahan to get the Habs on the board first!
  17. Another start for Primeau versus Philadelphia. I can't help but think they are showcasing him to generate more interest by the Flyers.
  18. Yes to all of the above! Armia is terrible, and block the ice time from Ylonen. An Armia demotion would boost Ylonen, and give Heineman a chance at some 4th line ice time. He did not fare that well in his first games, but it's easy to think he needs some time to adjust to the NHL pace and coach Marty's philosophies.
  19. If it's 5-on-5, I would trust Kovacevic, now. If it's a power play, then I am fine with Barron, but he has more defensive lapses/decision making gaffes than any other Habs defenceman this season. I also think Kovacevic would be fine short-handed with Matheson; he makes better decisions in his defensive zone than the other two. Harris is not fully developed in his defensive game yet, and in my opinion could benefit from some time in the AHL.
  20. Is anyone else tired of watching Savard paired with Matheson? That duo does not work together; Matheson needs a new steady partner, but coach Marty appears too scared to not give the two veteran defenceman the first pairing minutes. Also, Why was Harris trying to forecheck near the blueline on two goals against tonight? He's a defenceman, who needs to stay back when the pressure is in his own zone. He is not Bobby Orr.
  21. Ok, I admit I did not know that. That is a very impressive stat, when you consider Florida was missing their best 2 defenceman for the first dozen and a half games to start the season [Ekblad, Montour].
  22. Why do the Habs have only 8 shots after 2 periods?! Florida's defense is not that good. Very frustrating watching this game so far.
