DON Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 Battle between the 15-18 Habs & the 16-18 Canucks Carey usually plays well at home. Carey with win tonight will move into 23rd all time. 4 BC boys on the Habs...name em. Canadiens projected lineup Tomas Tatar -- Phillip Danault -- Brendan Gallagher Artturi Lehkonen -- Max Domi -- Joel Armia Nick Cousins -- Nick Suzuki -- Jordan Weal Ryan Poehling -- Nate Thompson -- Riley Barber Ben Chiarot -- Shea Weber Brett Kulak -- Jeff Petry Mike Reilly -- Cale Fleury Carey Price Charlie Lindgren Scratched: Christian Folin, Lukas Vejdemo Injured: Jonathan Drouin (wrist), Paul Byron (knee), Victor Mete (ankle), Matthew Peca (leg), Jesperi Kotkaniemi (concussion) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Link67 Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 I'd like to see what Poehling can do for some time in the top 6 while he is playing solid and confident hockey. They could move Lehky with Suzuki and Cousins with Thompson and put Poehling with Domi and Armia until some bodies get back for a few games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neech Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 Is it already a done deal that we should have taken Hughes over Kotka? I hope Kotka can return to the lineup soon, and I also hope we didn't draft another Philip Danault #3 overall. Love Danault, but he's not quite the star we want with a top pick. Who would you rather have going forward, Pettersson and Hughes or Eichel and Dahlin? Those are the top two young #1C and #1D combos that came to mind (I suppose you could do Matthews - Reilly, but Reilly isn't as young anymore).

Chris Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 Yea, if gallagher would have had that finish it would have been a perfect shot. Where has the habs offense gone, Who would have thought a tatar penalty would have wound up in the back of the net Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hes 19... he could be playing in the world juniors... but instead hes been in the NHL for the last year and a bit. Lets give some time before anything is a done deal. This is coming from someone who was quite vocal that Hughes was #3 on my board and who I would have taken. Right now, that assessment may look good for me.. but i know this isnt a final determination til both players have had 4 or 5 years in the nhl. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the kid, and really appreciate some of the things he uniquely brings to the table, but every time i see him in a top 6 position where he would be required to produce, instead of a 3rd line shut down role where production is a bonus, I just feel like...
