Gallagher's game seems to of softened and he isn't going hard to net as he did before. Cant recall last time he ended up on top of any goalie "accidently on purpose". He said he has spoken with refs about what is/isn't a penalty, which may be part of issue also?

Agree and starting out with 3 penalties in 1st 10 minutes was killer in this one.

He could of been called on a couple more, but looked like a very selfish penalty for sure.

As a screen, I see it makes sense to use him on the PP, why not...is the PP on fire as it is?

Was the team he was pissed with, I assume. What coach wouldn't of pulled him, with team playing like they were in front of him.

Really,,,give the kid a break! He also nearly ran a Shark through the backboards on his 1st shift.

Krug was given a gift horse to hit, so not sure was retaliation of simply a defenseless player in a vulnerable position gets nailed with a head shot. Who has ever had to come and fight to protect Emelin? Gallagher had to drop the gloves for Shaw,,,not Emelin, but that dosent jive with what you are selling I suppose.

Was thinking these two might of been just as quick, Russ Courtnall or Yvon Cournoyer?

All I am saying is that Weber or that ex-hab being #1 d-man on Habs will have dick all to do with 'whether' we should or shouldn't trade Sergachev.

Slim pickin's on the farm.

Thursday W, 2g 35shots and Fucale 8-2 in last 10 starts.

I simply think he is the biggest screen they got and has played that role in the AHL. And last game 0 for 5 was simply a killer in loss to Bruins. But, will wait and see if Muller having Lehkonen playing centre does anything positive first.

Is he the fastest Hab, "ever" or in recent memory anyways.

Lots of assumptions and nonsense. So Weber will only be a #1 elite d-man for 4 more years, so in those 4 years Bergevin cant trade for any d-men and Sergachev-Juulsen-Mete all will not be NHL calibre when they are 23 or 24? So what does that have to do with Weber trade or who is #1 d-man for the Habs in 4 or 8 yrs. Really don't see your logic, other than bringing up your man-crush for that ex-hab.

Wouldn't hurt my feelings if they added the Big Galoot to 2nd unit.

He will do fine. Wonder if he has been practicing any on the PP unit, he does make a super screen in front of goalie.

Would agree 100%...if I knew what a Buffbois is?

Your talking best case scenario. Also how one d-man breaks into NHL has absolutely zero to do with another doing likewise.

Barberio & Andrighetto recalled.

Price to the Bruins, that's crazy talk.

Wuss eh, I would lump him about average or equal to Galchenyuk, Markov, Radulov and vast majority of European players rate in the all important category of fighting? Plus plate in cheek is another good reason to avoid duking it out when toss a big hit and opponents...like Lucic, gets way off his game, throws a childish temper tantrum and takes dumb penalties retaliating.

Yup, Lindgren 2nd star of game and 2/3 on the PP were two positives I guess.
