DON Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 Just hope Habs make it interesting at least. 15-9 vs 6-20 hmmmm, i will go out on a limb and predict easy win for Tampa. Ducharme told the media he'd be using the same lines he deployed at practice on Monday. That means that forward Laurent Dauphin and defenseman Kale Clague will be making their Canadiens debuts against Tampa. Relatedly,...

huzer Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 I'm starting to think it might be more entertaining if all of the players from both teams just played pickup at every Habs game. Throw the sticks to center ice, divvy them up, and let's have some fun! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, I think you are right. Tampa comes in over confident against the injury riddled Habs and get a wake up call. Habs win! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DON Posted December 7, 2021 Author Share Posted December 7, 2021 Perry has been heating up for the two-time defending champions lately, amassing eight points (5 goals, 3 assists) over the last eight games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Habs Fan in Edmonton Posted December 8, 2021 Share Posted December 8, 2021 The Habs on track for a 4-2 win, then they take out the Hawks on Thursday night and we won't have to look at that smiling KK picture anymore. It can't come soon enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm happy to see that the effort is significantly better. But as the TSN graphic showed, we also have over 60% of our cap on the injured reserve. (Our lineup for this game had only one player over $5M, and a total salary of about $39M. For the Lightning, those numbers were five and $67M.) Anyway, another step on the road toward a top-five draft pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ordinarily I’d say tonight was another one of those frustrating nights, where they toy with us giving us hope, only to disappoint. But this isn’t a bad result. Suzuki gets some points, while still supporting the lottery chances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DON Posted December 8, 2021 Author Share Posted December 8, 2021 Well, that was an interesting way to finish. Just dodged getting any points, 3 points up on Arizona for 32nd and have played 2 more games. Go Coyotes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo needs to start winning a few games, they are one team I think the Habs will catch but it's looking like a top 5 pick is pretty likely. Who do the Habs take if Wright is gone?

Likely a forward ... there only seem to be 1 or 2 defencemen in the top 10 ... only 1 that seems to show upon in some Top 5 lists. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Believe that would guarantee 4th or better ... there are only two lottery draws this season, teams can only move up 10 spots (i.e., team that finished 16th can only move up to 6th) and can only advance twice in any 5 year period Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it appears that Buffalo (currently 29th by percentage) will be ineligible to move up. It's all good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
