dlbalr Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 In the spirit of this being a game in Vegas (and to maybe give us something to talk about before it starts), here are some over/under lines for tonight's game: 1.5 - Goals scored by Montreal 2.5 - Shots on goal for Max Pacioretty 27.5 - Saves by Antti Niemi Carey Price 13:00 - Ice time for Nikita Scherbak 47.5% - Montreal's faceoff percentage (since faceoff talk is all the rage at the moment...) Puck drop is at 7 with Vancouver's regional broadcast crew on play-by-play calling the game for some reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Metallica Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 I think the big question is... Is this the last weekend we see Plekenec and Pacioretty as habs ...... Yes or no Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trizzak Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Niemi starts this game. I can't remember the last time the backup goalie started a game where Price was healthy and it wasn't a back-to-back situation. Julien poking Price a bit? Carey has been shit lately, so I don't mind it. Edit: Or showcasing Niemi a bit to see if they can get some interest in him before the deadline? His numbers in Montreal have been pretty good.

xXx..CK..xXx Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 Knew I’d be off on the saves over/under after the first goal for Niemi.... Does it count if Price accumulates them since his name is (sort of) there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There aren't many things to look forward to during the remainder of this season, but watching Galchenyuk and Scherbak play together is one of them.

xXx..CK..xXx Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 Without looking up his stats in the minors, I think Scherbak is going to be somewhat of a star in the league. The grind of a full season will eventually get him but I can see it in him. Kind of looks like a Voracek with less passing and more finish.

He looks like he'd benefit from a few more lbs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 How would have known that when you drive the net, you score goals. happened twice in the first, 2 goals. I can't even remember the last time 2 habs drove the net. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EMELINATOR Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 I think the Chuck-Johnny-Nikita line, given a few more months together can do some serious damage. Agree with you guys that Scherbek is something we should be happy about. Bright future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Chicoutimi Cucumber Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 I missed the first period. Tuning in at the second, I've had the joy of watching one of the worst, most hapless editions of the Montreal Canadiens I've ever seen. Garbage in every way, bad beyond all infinite possible dimensions of badness, just festering piles of uniformed sh*t spread all over the ice in disarray, like heaps left by some massive, diarrhetic hippopotamus. The architects of this miserable excuse for a hockey club should be banned from the city of Montreal on pain of summary execution. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
