We are so f***ed

 

[Bojack Horvatman]

Toffoli doesn’t play for Montreal anymore and it’s a road game. We may just have a chance here.

Pettersson and Hughes are both on the trip, too. We may get some reinforcements, just not sure if it will be in time for this one.

 

[theguardianII]

Miller or Pettersson

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

Still waiting for the Miller trade

Maybe he scores a goal or 2 and ppl go “SEE??? “

Get ready for the Montreal based Hutson is comparable to Hughes talk.

You're forgetting that our #6 was Keith Ballard. I know he played like ass most of the time here, but that's a top 4 defenceman.

We got Christian Ehrhoff for Patrick White. I still feel kind of guilty about that one.

No. I will not prepare myself for this.

I will.

The HABS finish up their road trip tonight in Colorado, fly home, and play us on Monday. It's not like they're rested and waiting for us.

Trying to find a glimmer of hope to start this road trip.

 

[Bojack Horvatman]

I’ll be working again during the game. n the bright side I’ll try to remember to say this while teaching a class

 

[timw33]

easy w

They've just won 7 of 8 and we just got off losing to the worst road team in the NHL (for a 2nd time this season).

Me going into Monday afternoon's game:

 

[CanucksSayEh]

This team won't lose again this year!

Keith Ballard the rubber leg. That fall looked bad but he wasn't out much.

Serves him right for lightsabreing Vokouns head off

Yes, I thought the same thing. But this Canuck team is in turmoil right now, and the young Habs are playing their best hockey of the season.

This is a 'make or break' road-trip for the Canucks. But on a positive note, they are taking Demko, Pettersson and Hughes on the trip--so the reinforcements are close.

 

[theguardianII]

This game, if they lose, could be noted not for who scored, who played, who may have been injured, but who travels/goes to the next game.
This kind of grind it out game keeps skill level depressed on both sides.
I think this could be a goalie battle more than anything, a goalie steal for either team.

Their record is 18 W and 21 L, Canucks 18 W and 20 L and they have played a tougher schedule

Another OT game maybe but the pattern shows a L

 

[rypper]

There's few teams (mainly the fans) i hate more then the Habs. Put it together and come out with the win.

We'll need to depend on our superstars, Max Sasson and Vinny Deharnais for big games but I think we can do it.

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

 

[TruGr1t]

Hopefully they aren't rushing Hughes back, though given the team's medical practices it wouldn't surprise me.
