0-7

/cue the excuses post-game

 

[Captain Mountain]

I don't think the Habs have ever been on track this pre-season, so I don't see how they can get back on track.

 

[Agalloch]

I think we lose and Scherbak, Fucale, Davidson, McCarron, Froese, Holland and Martinsen are cut tommorow.

 

[A Loyal Demidog]

I have a bad feeling Mete won't be as good tonight, in great deal thanks to Benn, and will be cut because of it.

Listening to Julien yesterday I think Davidson is safe...

That's crazy.

 

[Belial]

That's crazy.

Well, they'll keep 8 D's IMO so the 7 and 8 for me are Davidson and Streit.

If what you say is right, it means that Jerabek or Mete is send down.

Streit has just been terrible, so I hope they get rid of him. Davidson...he's better than he's been this preseason, but he's got to start showing something pronto.

 

[Belial]

Depends on Schlemko and Mete IMO. If Schlemko is ready to go and they decide to keep Mete with the big club I think they'll send Jerabek to Laval so he can play.

Streit has just been terrible, so I hope they get rid of him. Davidson...he's better than he's been this preseason, but he's got to start showing something pronto.

Streit gets the veteran benefit of the doubt IMO and Davidson is indeed better than what he showed us.

 

[NobleSix]

You're giving a roster spot based on the benefit of the doubt regarding a player who is completely terrible, and has been terrible for a while now?

Belial, come on man. Streit just sucks now. He's not getting any better and does not deserve to be on the roster, even in a reserve capacity.

 

[The Great Weal]

I'd roll with 13 forwards before playing Davidson.

 

[Agalloch]

I'd roll with 13 forwards before playing Davidson.

I would prefer keeping 14 forwards right now and 7 d-men (Weber, Petry, Alzner, Schlemko, Benn, Mete & Jerabek).

It's not me who's making the decisions I'm only sharing my thoughts on what I think will happen.

Who do you keep around?

 

[Habs Icing]

The order I see our defense:

Weber
(Mete)
Petry
Jerabek
Alzner
Benn
Schemeko

Davidson

Because of his excellent play I think Mete deserves at least a few season games. If he plays well tonight without Weber and plays well in the season games I would keep him for the rest of the year.If they choose to send him down then I would slot Jerabek next to Weber. For me Davidson is the 7th if Mete is sent down or 8th if Mete makes the roster.

 

[habergeon]

I think it has more to due with injuries and Jerabek's adjustment....once everyone is healthy he's in the pressbox

The order I see our defense:

Weber
(Mete)
Petry
Jerabek
Alzner
Benn
Schemeko

Davidson

For me Davidson is the 7th if Mete is sent down or 8th if Mete makes the roster.

I have it

Mete - Weber
Alzner - Petry
Streit - Benn

7th - Davidson
Injured: Schlemko

From what I've seen, Mete is not going anywhere and will be here until atleast November. Jerabek needs minutes, and having him on Laval playing 30 minutes and adjusting to N/A life isn't necessarily a bad thing. Plus give credit where credit is due, Mete outplayed him.

It's not me who's making the decisions I'm only sharing my thoughts on what I think will happen.

Who do you keep around?

Subban over Weber
Markov over Schlemko
Beaulieu over Benn
Emelin over Alzner

This line-up is pretty good evidence that the team has different priorities than winning preseason games. I'm glad to see that.

 

[Agalloch]

Byron-Danault-Shaw is the new 3rd line.. IMO.

Galchenyuk doesn't have a spot to play with Julien. I would have put him on RW but hey... not the coach.

Love to see the Nathan Beaulieu truthers are out in full force

remember that one time in 2014 when he won a fight??? Best untapped potential ever.

Face it the guy sucks

I'm loving that 3rd line.
