Sean Monahan just had a sweet shootout goal and you can see that this kid could be a real super player in a couple years.

What do you think that have Habs specifically done wrong for 20+ years, that cup winning teams have avoided doing? Simply a combo of things eh? But all of Bergevin's rhetoric seems to be what I agree with; build though the draft and look more long term stability of entertainment product (wins/cups).

If Yemelin is hurt bad, who do you think will be called up next, Tinordi or Pateryn? Who is likely best for Habs to call up?

Yes

No, Bergevin will only make a tweek or two. Maybe some team will bite on Bourque/Markov/Diaz/Beaulieu, but will see within next 6 weeks or so I guess. Beaulieu and a pick for Eberle? (or some deal with these young players, that is equitable and fits cap wise)

Fucale wins again! Snipers Crisp-Nevins-McCarron all score today Vail continues to pile up points with 2a. And finally Bennett shows sign of life with 1g & 1a game (but he is a strong skater and good with puck so he may do well in Hamilton at end of playoffs? unless he has to finish schooling?).

Did u attend game? any dogs stand out?

Should make playoffs, but may not.

23:00 for Plekanec seems a lot.

But a Benoit Pouloit, Andrai Kostitsyn and Rene Bourque have 100% raw talent, but also low% the latter and the "between the ears" aspect of prospects is sometimes hardest part to project to a pro career..

Done deal, shutout, not a bad game, fairly even.

Gallagher continues to work hard.

Well, all the people who wanted to see Tinordi/Pateryn, you are gonna get a chance to see em, by the look of Emelin going off the ice? Tinordi had a nice scrap tonight, so maybe his "truculence" and size may be a good thing?

Beaulieu seems a better forward than Bourque does.

#11 is easily on his way to a 20+ goal season, super for 1st full year.

Even in losses he makes me chuckle and is entertaining for sure, worth every penny of the $1.5m

Have given up 1 pp and 1 sh goal after two periods.

Nice work by #11

Marlies and Wings score at same time, Dogs (and Habs) down 2-0

Gallagher is working hard once again this game.

Bourque lays on the breaks to avoid hitting the guy with puck? Finish your check.

Almost any shot can give up a tap-in rebound, so just keep firing and have other forwards going hard to net, which is likely more important.

7:30 for Murray in 1st period and he was fine.

In the 3 shifts they had, 49-71 look fine. LL and Beaulieu look quite good, not Plekanec good, but OK. I wouldn't say it is ever bad to simply shoot and Gionta has got lots of odd angle goals in his career.

Dumont drops them with bigger guy. Dogs down 1-0 McKegg with PP goal, bit of lucky bounce.
