Glad to see Lapierre getting an opportunity on an offensive line. Maybe this kid just has a bit more potential than anyone realized, he certainly is playing like he wants it, and that line with higgins and tanguay was really clicking there at the end of the period.

Better. Lapierre is doing everything for the team, emotionally and on the ice, forcing Gainey to change up, making a difference. That said, nervous every time the Laffs bear down on us and you can see the d cringe, wishing they would go away. however, when we sustain pressure like that it's amazing how much better we look, especially because we're not floundering in our own zone.

Like what we did on that pp, Kovalev more of a threat. Schneider should still bomb a way more from the point though.

How about Metropolit losing the faceoff to Blake, wow Bob, of you wanted another Smolinski should have re-signed Smolinski! And of course Lapierre won the next draw clean as a whistle...

Big task ahead, need three, any way to get the 2 points, maybe we can. Should be fresh out there after taking the fist 30 minutes to warm up.

Gotta be glad Bob decided to shuffle his lines. Laps & Tangs seems to have instant chemistry. With Higgins they make for a very speedy line.

Patches-Plex-Kosty also need to get something going too.

Laraque-Koivu-Kovalev together are the 3 Adios: all 3 cant skate, are liabilities 5-on-5 and will be gone this summer.

KoZed, what is that hilarious Lapierre tribute at the bottom of your page?? Fantastic pics!

Hehe, was doing that between the 1st and 2nd... celebrating a goal in front of Lucic, beating up Talbot, celebrating a goal with Crosby look dejected and getting in some Flyers' face. Not too shabby!

hypothetical...

would francophone's in Quebec be more willing to accept a non-french speaking head coach, if the captain was a francophone (lapierre?).

just curious to hear some thoughts on that...

Hmm doubt it would work anyway. The coach speaks to the press more than the Premier. He has to explain himself every day.

Captain doesnt need to address the medias that much, if at all.

Pacioretty-Koivu-Latendresse?

WHY A PENALTY???

Lats pastes a Leafs and gets a high-stick penalty... ugh.

KILL IT!
