Tampa will be a different animal, so many weapons. Should be fun
Dobes blanks Panthers, Dach emerges, Hook passes!

Could very well be. It depends on how much is offered for Evans at the TDL and how much he wants for his next contract. But notice I had Evans as a slash. So your bottom six has the same personnel as the options I presented, just different line combos.
I actually also like Newhook at C. But Kapanen is also best at C. So we'll see how things shake out...including if HuGo try to bring in some more size to the bottom six. Nice to see Anderson playing the physical role well and Heineman emerging.
I'm glad Habs coaches see him as more than a face puncher, he has the potential to be top 4 but sure let's have him sit in the box and get injured periodically in garbage time fights
We needed a steady presence back there. Badly. He's made a big difference. It makes it a lot easier to bring in guys like Maillioux and RB when there's a solid player above who can eat tough minutes.
His injury irritates me so much, this year of development was so needed going into next.
If there's a Worst GM of the Year Award the frontrunner is Trotz giving up Carrier and Fabbro. Yzerman is right behind him for fumbling Walman.
I don't know if giving up Carrier is going to be a bad move for them. They're not winning anything this season and didn't need him the way we did. Let's check back in a few years... I still think Barron could have a good career.
You forgot about Yo-Elle. You guys always forget about Yo-Elle.
Not by watching games from the stands or playing ~7 min per game no. I still have no flippin clue why Preds did that trade. I would have offered better assets for Carrier and it would have worked both ways anyhow.
Panthers announcers were tryna really pipe up about it when Caufield scored. Guess they didn't like our fans chanting.
It was great when Hughes brought in LD Matheson for RD Petry.
Sometimes even in a trade, you don't have to trade for need but for the best asset available. Fabbro and Walman would have been nice adds.
I'm certainly not dropping another hundred on a habs win tomorrow, but it's certainly something to build off, let's hope they keep the momentum.
That win is also good for the Monahan pick.
Yup... and 7-4 with Laine in the lineup... (& really, 7-3 since he barely played in the CBJ loss).
Might just be that KH & co. did make a pretty solid assessment on where the team was at.
Will be interesting to see how the second half of the season goes... If any or all of Dach, Newhook & Slaf pick up their game and we can stay healthy on D, we will stay in the WC hunt right till the end
On paper, Barron has everything going for him. First Rounder. 6’2. 23. Has put up some offence in the pros.

Im a Laine fan but you know what.. today.. i became a Montreal Canadiens fan!!!!
Holy shit this team is something Ive never seen before, and the fanbase, the intensity... I absolutely HATED Columbus the whole time Laine was there. And if Im anything like Patty... I think he did too.
And you know what.. I think he actually really loves it in Montreal, I can see him signing looooong and never looking back.
GG guys, lets repeat this tomorrow!!

Except they can't shoot a puck into the ocean. If they could put up a few goals they would be fine.
IMO they don't have as many weapons as Florida.
