The Iron Lung Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 It`s about time for Aebischer. He`s due. He`s too good to not break out of his slump soon. Maybe tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaos Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 In my 'dreams', I see him and some other player(s)/prospect(s)/draft pick(s) going to Florida for Luongo. He'll be able to be an undisputed #1 there. If Gainey decides to have him stay then good for him and, so far as I'm concerned, good for us too. He's better than we've seen so far. :king: :hlogo: :king: Only in your dreams. If he's moved I more see him packaged up for maybe a forward, or an upgrade on defence.

dlbalr Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 An interesting little stat that I looked up: Aebischer's lifetime record vs Ottawa is 0-2, with a 3.05 GAA and .912 SV%. This would rule out any potential argument that Aebischer has had Ottawa's number in the past. All this being said, I agree with the decision to put him in net tonight, Ottawa is a potential 1st round opponent, and the less they get to face Huet, the better. Also, Huet's started 6 straight, time to give him a rest, and make sure he's fully ready for a huge game vs Jersey on Saturday night.

MCeh Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 (edited) In my 'dreams', I see him and some other player(s)/prospect(s)/draft pick(s) going to Florida for Luongo. He'll be able to be an undisputed #1 there. Last night I dreamt our Habs -- with Aebi at the cage -- lost 5-3 against Ottawa. The first OTT goal was let in on a softy from our defensive corner, along the goal line. Pure buzzkill. Let me be ESP challenged.

GreggieMcHabfan Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 I've got a theory. David A. played well in the loss to Carolina. Most of the Habs forgot to show up that night and left him high and dry on most of the 5 goals he gave up. He was terrible in both games against Pittsburgh. My theory. David plays better against better teams. I know it is a reach, but I suspect if the rest of the team shows up against Ottawa we'll pull out a 4-3 decision. Just a theory. I also believe man has yet to walk on the moon, so take it for what it is worth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaos Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 This game will not just come down to David Aebischer. The last few games against Boston and Toronto were nice wins, but against non playoff teams. This game against Ottawa is going to take a total team effort, from Aebischer right out to the forwards coming back and back checking. The defense will have to keep up the good work clearing rebounds and the forwards are going to have to bury their chances. Emery is struggling some and Montreal needs to keep the pressure on him. Having said that, Montreal cannot afford a bad game by Aebischer, and soft goals and Ottawa will smell blood....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMMR Posted April 7, 2006 Author Share Posted April 7, 2006 Aebi was amazing tonight. The first period he stole momentum for the Canadiens. I knew he would be great just needed time to adjust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Iron Lung Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 See, I told you guys. Hopefully he earned a bit of your respect back. Beating the eventual Stanley Cup champs... who although under-manned, still managed 47 shots! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jetsniper Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 Just about everyone on the Sens will be back before the playoffs. I think Phillips is the only guy who won't be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shortcat1 Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 Last night's game was a gift of sorts for us. On top of that DA saved our faces big time. :king: :hlogo: :king: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
