At this point I guess we have to take what we can get. Here's hoping for another deuce tonight.

I know you mean 2 points, but I think we'll see the other interpretation. happy.gif

Well we get to see if Palushaj can hold his own at the NHL level!

Could be interesting with Lars Eller as our second line center as well, see how he does.

I always look forward to seeing how callups perform and, honestly, Montreal's fortune in that respect has been astonishing. Pacioretty, Weber, Desharnais and White have performed admirably and have gone a long way to solidfying their place in the NHL, albeit to varying degrees. Having said that, this lineup is a bit too green for my taste. Too green even for St. Patty's day.

I'm excited to see Palushaj play. Habs gave up D'Ags for him, and D'Ags has been doing decent for the Blues. I'm also highly interested in Dawes, who did really well in junior, but didnt do much at the NHL level. I figure his lack of NHL success is because he needs to be on the right team with the right system, and be given the right role and hopefully he's a match with the Habs. Typically throw in guys in trades the Habs make generally work out pretty good for the Habs. I'm not exactly sure why they got Dawes, but I bet there is a specific reason, which we may get to see tonight.

I am getting sick of tsn calling the chara hit.. "that collision with Chara".. it was a HIT!!!!

New padding tonight, which will help a bit, but probably not when you get put in to the glass like Pacs did...

Tonight would be a good night for Gomez, Gionta, and Cammy to make an appearance.

Amazing how many times you can whack, cross check, and hold Subban without getting a call. Two hand retaliation to get a call. ... wow.. tossed him.. :clap:

That should give us a chance.I just hope PK is okay.

Hope Subban is ok. Good night Lecavalier

Damn Vinny :angry:

How many injuries are we going to have.

To me that one's on the refs. Why the hell wouldn't they make a call 40 seconds earlier???? No, as usual, they swallow their whistle until things start getting out of hand.

It'll be a while yet for the PP as Subban got the old fashioned 2-minutes-for-getting-slashed call. Good period overall from the Habs though.

Subban totally deserved it. Just before, he slashed Vinny on the forearm.

Weber might have to play now, already he's been benched. Just 3 minutes in the 1st period and shockingly no PP time. The guy's basically a PP specialist, so they don't use him there. If Subban's not back, he'll have to see PP time now...I would think.

The cross checks were one thing. The slash is another all together. Maybe the refs could have blown the whistle sooner but Lecavalier is ultimately responsible for being and idiot.

edit: missed Subban slash Lecavalier first.

Hope to see Subban back in the second.

I know. But blow it dead when it happens. At hab29retired said, that was going on for a while. If you're going to call both, blow it dead then and there, don't wait for one to go over the top and then give both a penalty.
