I'm exited for plex to have some skill on his line.
Davey should hypothetically be a good back checker with his new speed oriented style (where he actually dropped some weight). With some bigger bodies creating space for him you never know how that could work out for him either. (Worked in 2011-2012)

Why thank you mr. Subban.
-
Please. Please score a damned power play goal. Something please.
-
I feel like if they can just put one in they might be able to get the ball rollin. This game is making me see that even though the Habs have a lot of good pieces, they've got a nice few players they have to improve on and a ways to go if they want to be a powerhouse team.
-
Overrated: Markov - He's a great offensive talent, but I actually think he's a defensive liability now. I've seen him turn the puck over with a reckless pass quite a few times, and he just doesn't have the speed to recover anymore. I believe Bozak burned him in the first game.
Desharnais - like mentioned above, not by us but by the coaching staff. Can't believe he was the too used forward against t.o.
Gorges: I love him, want him on the team and think he's great but he is top 4 at best often being paired top 2. Subban makes him look pretty damn good though, and they have chemistry.
Underrated: Eller - I don't think he'll be underrated for long the way he's going.
I'm not really sure how the trade scene really works but I can't help but feel there's an opportunity to trade for one of edmontons young wingers. They need a centre man badly. I'd like to unload Desharnais along with a first round pick and a prospect or two (say dietz/Colberg) for Eberle or Yakupov
-
Dd Gio 1st pick and thrower for yakupov. Done
-
OH GOD parros. Smashed his face a la Eller.. Kind of had a decent fight too. He's concussed bad.
-
Eller. Wow. Montreal really does have 3 scoring lines
-
46-28-5-3 for 100 pts.
3rd Atlantic
9th in the league
249 goals

Eller kept on falling down, and when he wasn't in the box he lost 80% of his faceoffs. And no shots for the Gally's when they're on our top line? Good thing it doesn't matter.
I can't argue Eller falling or losing face offs, but the "top line" wasn't actually used that much. Galchenyuk only played about 16:00 minutes, same for Eller I think. And I imagine with the lineup Montreal iced last night, that line was often subject to Otawa's top defensive pairings. It will take time for this line to develope before they can handle that, and over the regular season they should see easier competition, resulting in better play. Just my thought anyway.
-
Holland st. Pierre and Thomas might be a surprise tonight. Load of skill there, and I expect Ottawa to home in on the Eller Gally(s) line.
-
Not to promote online streams but I have used them when I'm not at home watching RDS. They work really well after you exit all the ads. Don't think I'm allowed to suggest specific sites on the forum though am I?
-
So again, I'm not buying it. Excuse time is over. Excel in the spring 2014, or be branded a playoff bust - and rightly so.
I agree with what you're saying completely. It's definitely time for price to step up. Strong regular season and another step in the playoffs.
I definitely still think Price has it in him. But I think you'd probably still agree that even if he doesn't live up I expectations NOW it doesn't mean he's done for as an elite goalie.
Yes it's time for him to step up now, but maybe he'll hit his groove halfway through the season as he adjusts to waite's coaching style. Just in time for the playoffs
-
Dd anyone else see Pacioretty absolutely undress someone after he came over the blue line? Huge scoring chance after
-
Please lord don't let Gally be injured
-
I see either way, Hamilton or Montreal being fine for his developement anyway. He won't be asked to carry the team with montreal. I trust Therrien's abilities with the young guys very strongly. Tinordi seems to have a strong head on his shoulders anyway. Looking forward to seeing him up.
-
Bournival can't get cut I don't care.
-
Galchenyuk played Center last night didn't he? Other than the goal which was simply good positioning, how did he do there? I only saw highlights
-
Also just realized that Hudon strongly reminds me of Plekanec. Known for a great two way game, highly skilled at the same time, smooth skater and about the same size
-
This is probably just a weird transitional time for Montreal. Briere Gio and Desharnais could easily be all gone in 2 years, replace them with 6 ft people and suddenly all this size shit isn't gonna be a topic. Unless adrighetto reway and Thomas turn into the best we got..
But Mccarron and de la rose making it by then would be unreal
-
Are preseason games on RDS? Or broadcasted on any station for that matter ?
-
Tinordi solidifies a permanent spot on the team, and Eller puts up a 20 goal season nearly cracking 60 points
-
Montreal finished 4th in the league last year with price having a mediocre year. If goalies are always the X-factor what would they have done with him having a stellar year? I think the bottom line is that there isn't one "X-factor", what made the Habs a dominant team last year was, well, the "team." They really bought in last year.
I guess the x-factor is playing the no excuses, everyone is held accountable type of game that they all hopped on board for last year. Because the Habs ALL did it last year.
-
How long do you guys think morrow will go before anyone signs him? If it got close to the deadline ( even say January) maybe by that time trading desharnais wouldn't look bad on Bergevin. Then we could sign morrow almost like a pre playoff rental player.
I actually don't dislike desharnais, he's just a TERRIBLE fit for the team. Over abundance of centres AND undersized top six. Morrow would bring size and clear room at Center. By to mention he performed pretty good in the playoffs last year.
