DON

Or a jumbo Moan.

I wasn't being sarcastic, was just curious which others you meant?

I don't really mind Budaj or Tokarski, but simply need top skaters to play better to win. Or should of taken Ryan O Reilly, Tomas Tatar, Reilly Smith or Cody Eakins. But, draft is crapshoot, picking the 'best' 17 year old kid is tough.

I like the 'go from here' part. Forget about who is in net and hope Emelin-Markov-Subban and top 6 forwards all play better game than the last one and will be a good game. Many said Habs were done after Game#5 loss vs Bruins, just another hurdle to overcome.

You tossin in the towel?

Eye for eye is BS and childish response. Should be bit more a motivator if anything. Is Tokarski a better choice than Budaj?

And who are the 5-6? I am stuck on Glover/Dougherty or maybe Schmaltz/Scherbak @26-27th.

Not sure awful and when he was on, puck was in Edmonton end most of time. But, agree on smacking Moroz was just dumb and I don't understand Hunter why he put McCarron on after that penalty?

I would think Crawford and Bouche would be on Bergevin interview list in 2015-16 or 2017 if Therrien is lucky and team avoids 10 game losing streaks and stays respectable. But, also may go with a younger less experienced QMJHL coach next time, which likely are several worthy ones?

I assume Dubynk is a Hab till UFA day eh? Or can they simply cut him loose early?

Peter B 10-8-3; 2.51 & .909% Just 1-3-1 @home, but good on the road.

That one I don't understand how he wasn't called for a penalty, very little attempt to avoid Price and he friggin smoked him skates first?

I guess is a good deal and Condon may be closer to NHL playoffs then could of ever guessed, if Price is gone.

No matter how you describe 1st game, few positives. Krieders' play and McDonagh (wasn't one of 3 stars??) was also awesom....sorry wrong team. Eller had another solid game but got schooled on faceoffs by Stepan/Moore. And DD was again killed by opposing centre and this time was by Boyle. Pacioretty played well and other than stupid penalties by Bourque, at least he showed up to play. Emelin with only 1 hit and Markov -2 didn't shine as a pair. And Subban was an icing & turnover machine, he looked very tired at times or just wanted to dump puck in the air/down the ice or long dumb passes to no-one in particular? But as many said, just one game and no indication of how series will play out, especially with 'fortitude' Habs showed in last series.

too bad, well, London on again today and Nygren is on TSN vs Canada. Maybe 2 kids who will never put on Hab jersey for reg season game?

Not sure if you mean 'midget' in a good way or bad? Or you hinting that Bruins-like big is better?

Bit of redemption for Rene.

Go PK Go!

The dreaded 2 goal lead.

But, one Mr.Pateryn was on same team, on for just as many EN goals and only Tarnasty was close to Nathan in +/-. He turned puck over trying to make fancy plays and turned puck over on PP for breakaways way too often and got knocked off puck in own end way too much. Some seemed to do with a 'I am too good to be here' mindset, which is what bugs me a bit or may be a bit worrisome, but ton of self-confidence isn't an all bad thing and I do love his speed/skill. But, instead of going to AHL and excelling as Pacioretty did, when was pissed at being demoted and voiced his displeasure. He backed up his words with super play, Nathan floated/sulked, or seemed to anyways. I hope he keeps helping Habs and Beaulieu works hard in off-season and can stick in the fall and defense picks up.

Reway may chip in more offense vs very weak Italians.

Did anyone see how McCarron played yesterday?

Habs in 6, seems popular and bout right to me.

U know 0% chance of that happening in this years' playoffs.

Already had version 1 of this, a 16th pick called Marcel Hossa.
