Commandant Posted October 20, 2011 Author Share Posted October 20, 2011 Someone with mod powers merge the threads... its bad luck to have two game day threads I tell you. Also it sounds like Cammy will play and Palushaj sit. Trying to find new line combos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lazy26 Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 I'm going to be stuck at work, so I'll be missing this one.

If we are overconfident because they have a depleted lineup wouldn't that make us hypocrites? hahahaha. Yes but I mean....

The Chicoutimi Cucumber Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 If memory serves, Cammy has a poor track record when returning from injury, so I wouldn't hope for too much from that quarter. At the same time, that the opposition is likely to key on him (along with Pleks and Subban) should open up new opportunities for our secondary scorers, so he'll still help...just don't expect a big night from him. Heck, in the past its taken him a long time to get untracked in these circumstances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed, he has a poor record when returning from injury, but it is usually a 2-3 months break while tonight, it is just 11 days...

Habinator33 Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 Neal is not hurt he just had a maintenance day from practice. Orpik is making his season debut tonight and will have his minutes monitored. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCPetit Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 Great news. Cammy will help. Palushaj should have played though. If it had been my decision, Engqvist would be out. Well, I won't make a fuss for a 4th line player who won't play 10 minutes anyway... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyhasbeen Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 If we play with the same effort we put in against the Sabers we win. Let up for awhile, we lose. 60 minutes of hockey please. Been quietly enjoying our losses so far this season/preseason. So much of what I have seen i liked so the losses meant nothing to me. So now I am posting as after the last game I think our season is finally beginning. We can put in a full game and very few teams can match us line for line. We will win alot of games this year. Go Habs Go! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMMR Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 Who knows line up not set do not be shocked if Eggfist is outand AP gets to play. They have an extra centre with Eller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KamalPanesar Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 I'm calling a big win for the Habs tonight and am looking forward to watching Cammy with Plekanec and Cole. That should be an excellent line. Also the third line of Gomez, Gionta and Eller (ya, that's the third line) should be much improved. Moen was great as a stop-gap and all, but Eller looks real good so far this season and should add some needed life to that line. If the Plekanec line can get rolling tonight, watch out...because the Desharnais line is already looking like one of the most dangerous we've seen in a long time. It kind of reminds me of Lucic, Krejci and Horton. Krejci has the two big wingers that create space for him to work his magic. Ditto for Desharnais...

BlueKross Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 We will have to manufacture excuses if we don't win tonight. We must have all the MOJO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brobin Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 All I can say is they better win. So far they are not impressing and if they can't beat this lineup from Pitts it is time to hit the panic button, imo. Cammy coming back should be a good boost, but we a lot of guys to step up their game. I am tired of the injury excuse. We haven't exactly been playing the top teams in the league.
