DON

I am quite ignorant of towns in southern Ont, Barrie and London are close or big rivals?, or u just a born/bred Barrie boy?

Interesting to see LL on 1st line and St.Pierre has been producing very little for awhile now eh.

Even if he ends up flippin burgers at McDonalds, he will be big. I know what u mean and am looking forward to see how he does in OHL playoffs and Memorial cup, maybe he will be a physical force, like his hero was? I imagine dlbalr will give an update on how the big fellow looks.

To be a goof, Souray was let walk as a UFA in Summer and signed by Oilers! Same as Koivu-Kovalev, for nothing.

maybe he will shine and play a great game for you to see.

Not sure, but I know Martin would never sit/scratch a vet player, no matter how bad he was playing (Gomer, Spacek & the Squid)

Well, Louis didn't seem to get a fair shake in call up; but will see how much icetime Thomas will get and how long he can stick with big club. I imagine he will slot in to lineup vs Tampa and/or Winnipeg.

Well, LL must be a bit worried now about future with franchise eh? I didn't think he looked bad at all in call up, in the very little icetime he got, but I guess was enough for Mgmt to want someone else called up instead. Interesting that 'supposedly' Aves were asking about Andrighetto? But Roy would know his play and maybe likes him?

I kinda thought early Dec. his value was highest, but just 3 months into season and team riding big winning streak, Bergevin wasn't (and maybe still isn't) looking to make any significant in-season trades?

Chara is Old timer softball age and 35 is a cut off age for a reason, especially as a pro athlete. I know some still play fine till they are 40, but low % and why I wouldn't go more than any 2 year deal for Markov.

5th straight win by Habs over the Bruins, I like it.

Don't know why, dosent matter where anyone is in the standings but, when Habs play the Leafs, it is always a total flip of coin - 50-50 chance who will win. But, Habs vs the Bruins, for whatever reason it seems, just to me, a 60-40 chance Habs win.

Let Beaulieu go, should of told him to take puck and go. for last couple minutes

I guess you have to say was a nice 'bounceback' game for Budaj

Just gotta love Gallagher effort, he game was exact same in junior and he basically just outworks people for the puck.

you thought cheap shot by Gallagher?

Gotta love Gallagher going at Chara couple times in game. Has Lucic even played since Murray hit him?

Pacioretty seems to be heatin up, which is no good for team Canada.

I think Bourque has been readings some of media criticism about being traded for puck bag and actually trying.

Will the Big Swedish Gorilla score this year?

That is better for Prust

Look bigger picture, 6th in d-scoring in NHL, #1 scorer on Habs, what more you want? (him to be a Bruin who used to wear #4 maybe )

Fucale lit up, 6 goals on 24 shots Vail, Crisp 1 g each and McCarron, Gregoire 1 a (games in progress) Hope Thrower ankle not a bad injury?

PK will always have a mistake or two on back end, but not enough that he shouldn't play 1/2 the game and be a stud player that he is on most nights. Not bad, Briere has a goal with less than 4 minutes of ice.

What the heck, did Emelin finally got over his big new contract and wake up. Bourque tries a one on one move for first time all year, what is going on?
