Should be an interesting game. With a win we would only be 5 pts behind Ottawa! It's special to see the Habs right behind New Jersey and Ottawa. I'm really proud of the team this year

ribs 21pts last 19games

koivu 21 last 23

ryder 20 last 19

zed 17 last 19

4 players with near 1 pt per game.. not bad!

Go habs GO

Tonight's prediction: 2-2

Dackell, Markov

Havlat, White

:ghg:

I dont have much hope that the habs come out of tonight with any points , we're playing a monster-power team. The sens can dominate basically any team in the NHL ... WHEN THEY WANT TO (in case you bring up the Leafs games) ...

Dagenais and Perreault sit tonight , Dackell is healthy and back in the lineup , and Kilger will also re-enter the lineup...

Bulis - Koivu - Ryder

Zednik - Ribeiro - Ward

Sundstrom - Juneau - Dackell

Kilger - Begin - Langdon

Markov - Quintal

Bouillon - Brisebois

Rivet - Komisarek

Theodore

Garon

Scratched - Dagenais , Perreault

Injured - Souray

My prediction....

8-1 Sens

Sens : Hossa (2) , Havlat (2) , Alfredsson , Smolinski , Phillips , Neil

Habs : Brisebois

Ever heard of the Saint Valentines day Massacre? We'll its happening again tonight.

Here is the forward lines as reported by RDS...

Bulis - Koivu - Ryder

Sundstrom - Ribeiro - Zednik

Kilger - Juneau - Ward

Langdon - Begin - Dackell

Sundstrom with Ribeiro and Zed... hmm , I wonder how that will work out , its a nice chance for Sunny to prove himself on the top lines , he's earned his shot ...

I like the 3rd line , its got some grit on the wings ... if only Kilger played with it EVERY night.

CURRENT INJURIES

Radek Bonk ©

Broken toe, mid-March - IR

Mike Fisher (C/LW)

Right elbow injury, day-to-day

Vaclav Varada (LW/RW)

Left knee surgery, remainder of the regular season - IR

Antoine Vermette (C/LW)

Shoulder injury, day-to-day

Anton Volchenkov (D)

Shoulder surgery, remainder of the regular season - IR

Even with this depleted lineup the Sens (having overcome the flu) have more than enough tire-power to make Puck's prediction prevail.

if you haven't noticed, Dagenais actually isn't producing.

and when he doesn't produce, he goes invisible.

and that's not good when our 5-on-4 hockey isn't superb.

no, he needs to wake up again, and what better than a friendly meeting with El Bencho

Sundstrom-Ribeiro-Zednik

Pairing a playmaker and a playmaker (IMO) isn't the smartest. If we had some more beef on that wing, or some more speed, then we'd be better off. But Sundstrom is just a Jack of All Trades. Nothing special, everything average

1-0 Sens after 1st period...

Chara with a goal late in the first , took a wicked shot from just inside the blueline that went off 3 posts and in past Theodore... Theodore has no excuse for letting that in , even though it was an awesome shot , Jose still should of stopped it because of the distance it was shot from , and Theodore's clear view of the puck...

That reminded me of Dan Cloutier in the playoffs when Niklas Lidstrom blasted it from center ice and Cloutier tried to glove it.

That play should have been nailed into Theo's head. Get in front of the puck, don't leave it to just the blocker.

Habs came out pretty good, but after about 5-7 minutes the Sens started to take control. Theo definetely should have stopped that shot from Chara, no matter how good of a shot it was.

A point or two would be great tonight, but i'm trying not to expect anything. Just gotta hope the leafs win (can't believe i'm saying it.)

Begin scores to make it 1-1. It was a classic Begin goal. Rush to the net, good things will happen. Like pucks bouncing off you.

Habs playing a strong 2nd , got rewarded with a Begin goal...

They are looking alot faster then the Sens , sens taking penalties trying to hold us up... Now its time for habs to take advantage of the PP's and score.

Sens take the lead again (2-1) on another fluke goal , this time be Redden , point shot that somehow got in... on the PP...

2nd period is over.

Habs outplayed the sens in that period , but end up on the wrong side of the score at the end of it... Habs are getting no bounces or luck tonight ... (Okay maybe our first goal , but thats it)

Now 4-1 sens...

Theodore had some bad rebound control on that goal , and the first shot causing the rebound nearly beat him... Theodore is way way off tonight , I dunno why CJ hasnt put Garon in yet.

Game over... Now lets see how close the sens get to my 8-1 prediction.

Begin scores again shorthanded to make it 4-2. I guess we're back in it. Let's hope we pick now to start scoring.
