first off, hello everyone.I'm Darryl.new to the board here..longtime member of another forum. Found this one, thought I'd try it out..

I cannot wait for this game...Seems like we have been waiting forever..I hate offseason..Not much too look forward to on the season in terms of wins, but Ive I have been waiting to watch the development of our youth and team with much anticipation...Here's to a succesful season boys, and let's try and be patient, and take the good things out of it.

I said It was my crystall ball. You would be both scared and surprised about how many times it's been right...

I sure hope for Montreal to win but let's face it.

We meeting one of the leauges most talanted team. On their ice. In the season opener. Whithout Saku Koivu. And many "experts" rank our team pretty low.

I think that the most important thing in this game is for the vets to take their responsibillity and show our prospects the way.

And that combined with some youth enthusiasm can take us to the playoffs. But we're in for a tough season.

I predict a 3-2 win in overtime for Mtl.

The scoring will be:

First Period:

Ott - White (Alfredson, Spezza)

Mtl - Dwyer (Ryder, Quintal) Ryder's shot will hit him in the leg...;)

Second Period:

Ott - Hossa (unassisted)

Third Period:

Mtl - Brisebois (Zednik, Ribeiro)

Overtime:

Mtl - Hossa (Souray)

Three Stars:

1 - Theodore

2 - Marcel Hossa

3 - Marian Hossa

All-Star

As much as I would love that to happen, I think we all know what happens when the Habs have a lead going into the 3rd period, or are tied going into overtime.

Tied for worst in the league last year in OTLs (9), and I do'nt really think it'll change too much.

Hate to burst your bubble, but this version of the Habs doesn't have enough heart or gamebreaker-type players (aka Kastysitsin) to with in OT, let alone enough smart and safe players (Juneau is no longer safe) to hold a lead.

Even if the odds are against it happening, stranger things have happened in the past... Any shot on net is a potential goal ;)...

Just a recap of the lines we already know , plus official d-pairing for the habs tonight....

Hossa - Ribeiro - Zednik

Bulis - Perreault - Audette

Sundstrom - Juneau - Dackell

Dwyer - Ward - Ryder

Markov - Rivet

Souray - Quintal

Hainsey - Brisebois

Theodore

Garon

Hainsey paired with brisebois? Thats not smart imo... While Brisebois has been playing great so far in the pre-season pairing him with a guy like Hainsey who makes ALOT of rookie mistakes cant be good news for Brisebois.

On the other hand, I like the idea of seeing Brisebois on the THIRD pair... hopefully well hidden from Ottawa's top lines.

But I have the sinking feeling he'll still be used on the PK... I hope I'm wrong.

Our top 2 pairings I'm happy with.

And the #1 PP unit will be Ryder-Perreault-Audette... anyone have a problem with that?

Ribeiro and Zednik seem like #1 PP material to me... considering our present lineup.
