Anderson hat trick tonight 

 

In practice yesterday Habs had Pearson in Pezzetta’s spot and a third line of Armia - Monahan - Anderson 

 

So like I said, Anderson hat trick tonight 

 

Yeah, I have a gut feeling that Anderson scores tonight, he is due, playing in his old stomping grounds. Everything is lining up for him to score. It's almost a sure thing.

Three Edmonton scouts in attendance tonight. 
 

They scouting Montembault? Or they scouting Laine somehow?

 

I wouldn’t mind solving the three goalies problem soon

 

They might be scouting Montembeault but there is ZERO chance they have any interest in Laine for a multitude of reasons (ie. have pressing needs elsewhere, no cap room etc etc). 

 

Yes, the Habs carrying 3 goalies is not ideal. Hughes is just waiting for the right trade to come along, could be waiting a while.

They had hoped to scout Pezetta.

Jackets missed a wide open net late in the period so we are fortunate to be tied. 
 

Some neutral zone turnovers and Habs have trouble picking up defensive assignments, especially on Columbus rush. 
 

We did look decent at times

 

Yeah, it wasn't all bad. Watching our confused defensive play against a pretty dog-manure team does underscore how far away we are from really being good, however.

Having two AHL Dmen playing sure doesn’t help! Lindstrom looks frigging terrified to me

RDS just showed Slafkovsky heading to the dressing room.
:(

 

 

EDIT: RDS advises he is back

I like Newhook more and more. 
 

Habs are a defensive dumpster fire 

 

Anderson is a black hole and his 2 points puts him on pace for 8 on the season. 

 

Let's see if Newhook can keep it up, but he's looking good.

 

I feel badly for Anderson, but this can't continue indefinitely. If it does, we'll have to start thinking about a buyout or something.

It's really to be expected with the injuries to the defence corps--three of six starting D-men injured--and Lindstrom and Struble thrown into the fire.

Maybe they could just conveniently "forget" to take him on the bus when they leave the arena after the game? 😂

A bad-for-bad trade most likley

Merzlikins got away with playing the puck in the restricted zone pretty clearly there.

Isn't the rule for "outside" the restricted area?
