As much as it pains me to say..may this be the last game we win this season

[dlbalr]

I'm off work today so I wrote up a preview for this one: http://www.habsworld.net/article.php?id=2720

Thanks for the preview. Great stuff. :-)

[KamalPanesar]

Did I read that right....puck drop is at 8:30 pm??

Either way, this should be one hell of a game tonight! The Bruins will be pissed after getting shut out last night and the Habs, well, have no choice but to win.

Should be a barnburner!

8:30 PM AST which is 7:30 PM EST.

8:30 PM AST which is 7:30 PM EST.

Ahh...tricky. :-)

[bar]

Haha...I thought I'd throw everyone for a loop and put AST haha..sorry I'll do EST from now on haha...

[KamalPanesar]

Ya, where are you going with AST? ;-)

[BCHabnut]

So is Chara the toughest great player of all time? What I mean is an elite hockey player who is a great fighter. I can't think of anyone else. Robinson and Gordie Howe are a few, but really who out there could beat up every goon and still contend as the best in their position every year?

Robinson was the toughest he creamed dave the Hammer

Howe would go with anyone\

So would Bobby Hull

or the Rocket

That said Chara is the best modern era guy.

[dlbalr]

Kostitsyn and Gomez will both play. I wonder if they'll go with 12/6 then?

[dlbalr]

Scouting alert: John Ferguson Jr. (yes, the former Leaf GM) is at this game representing the Sharks. He also attended the game last week against the Islanders. The Kings also have a pair of scouts present. In total, there are 9 scouts present (the other teams are Anaheim, Phoenix, Vancouver, Chicago, Pittsburgh, and Tampa Bay). 6/8 teams are Western scouts, not sure anything really can be gleaned from that though.

Haha I live in Halifax...so I'm representing the maritimes!

I'm not sure Chara would qualify a "tough." Most fights I saw of him he throws a punch, maybe 2, then tries to tackle the other guy. If your looking for skilled and tough, I would look at Iginla and Pronger.

[Helmethead]

Something tells me there will be blood tonight. It's been waaaay to quiet between these two this year.

Bold prediction: Rene Bourque KO's Milan..

[Helmethead]

Emelin is awesome

[hab29RETIRED]

Emelin is awesome

Yep and the bruins are their usual whiners. Clean hit and they go chasing after and yelling at Emelin.

[TurdBurglar]

I can't stop laughing at Thorton when he was hit by Emelin. If you didn't know any better, it looked like the worse death scene from a movie. Tossed hit head back and arms up, spun around and fell to the ice like he was dead, only to pop right back up with nothing wrong with him 5 seconds later.

[hab29RETIRED]

is weber due back soon - I'd rather see Diaz and Weber then Campoli out there.

[habscout]

Bold prediction: Rene Bourque KO's Milan..

i would *love* to see that!

[brobin]

Whether we win or lose, my one desire is to see Emelin or PK absolutely nail Chara with a clean hit. If Chara is knocked out for a few months due to injury, I won't lose any sleep.

[TurdBurglar]

That fight was needed, intensity dropped dramatically by both teams after the Cole rush Hoping it pick up again.

[JoeLassister]

hahaah was written in the sky.

[BCHabnut]

White throws down against a guy twice his size and holds his own
