Pretty quite here tonite.

Anyone else liking that Sergei - Lang - Kostopoulos line?

Liking Lang and Sergei, Tom's job is pretty simple. He's given a couple of random whacks at the puck on some nice set ups that haven't paid off.

I was skeptical, but I like it.

Lang is wayyyyyyyyyyy better than Smokes

Little #### has got to be one of the top passers in the NHL

Koivu is intense tonight.

Kovalev is out of rhythm.

BBois still sucks

Hopefully they can put it all together for one period and come away with the win. The way the first 2 periods have gone 1-1 after 2 doesn't seem too bad.

Agreed on Lang, Breez, and Kovy.

Sergie is top 40 passers. Koivu hasn't stood out to me.

Price has been great BTW.

Are you f'ing kidding?

No. Who else besides us is remotely likeable in the NE? 'Ruins, Leafs?

The games are against them are always entertaining, lot of action and no dirty hits. As it should be.

Obviously the guys are rusty but it's getting better as the game goes on. No worries. I love the Kosto-Lang-S.Kost line.

The Koivu line never seemed to be all out there at the same time in the 2nd... or at least they were so badly out of synch that you didn't notice all 3 out there. Koivu looks sharp but Tanguay didn't, and Latendresse has seemingly been bounced around a bit.

Lang finally gave that PP some purpose late in the 2nd. Kovalev keeps missing high, but he'll do that. I just forgot how often it happens.

Just remembered how I handled last year at the beginning of the season... I was rather blaise about the whole thing and said I wouldn't pass judgement on anything/anyone until 8 games were up (10% of the season). It worked out quite well for me personally, but the Habs were fairly good out of the gate as well. I'll try and do the same thing this year. Let everyone get their rhythm.

But Begin, that was just lazy.

Hopefully the PP is more tired than our PK.

It's not too early in the season for heroes - if Begin ever sees the ice sheet again, he'd be best off scoring a goal for every minute he was in the box. I think that would make amends.
