I would put the lines in a blender if Dvorak is back
Caufield-Newhook-Slafkovsky
Monahan-Suzuki-Anderson
Pearson-Dvorak-Ylonen
RHP-Evans-Gallagher
If Dvorak isn't back, Monahan takes his spot and RHP moves up to 2nd line

Dvo will help the team a bit. If you can divorce him from the circumstances that brought him to the habs he's a pretty good player. I think as much as our fantasy can inflate our view of our players, were terribly guilty of shitting on anyone who isn't a superstar it's so dumb
Win or lose, hopefully, the the caps will leave Mantha & a 1st behind 
Don't expect improvements from PP1 in the next game. At practice today, they were looking like the in-game PP thanks to the more aggressive PK...
At least now they might be able to work on it properly.

I heard on the radio today that the Habs are really good 5-on-5. It's their special teams that are shitting the bed. And being the most undisciplined team in the league after 1 week (last I saw, they have like 20 more penalty minutes than the second most penalized team), it doesn't help them at all.
At even strength, Habs have 8 goals for and 3 goal against.
On special teams, Habs have 2 goals for and 7 goals against.
And then they have 2 goals against at 6-on-5 when the Leafs pulled their goalie.

We are actually decent at 5 on 5 , we smacked toronto around at 5 on 5 in the opener . Special teams is another story .
Unfortunately (or fortunately for me and fellow tankers) the regular season is a glorified powerplay festival , 5 on 5 play is still the most important factor in the stanley cup playoffs but you can't even get in the playoffs without decent regular season special teams in this day and age

With 3 games in 4 days hopefully Primeau gets a start. I’m guessing he’ll play Monday against Buffalo or Tuesday against NJ.

Money in the top 6, Ylonen on the 3rd and let Gallagher's corpse waste a roster spot on the 4th where he belongs. Ideally he'd be a healthy scratch but it won't happen, unfortunately.
Primeau hasn’t played in a while. His last game was September 29th.
They should have put him in the net against Washington and their struggling offense.
These are apparently the line Martin McGuire said were at practices on the radio (read that on twitter):
22-91-17 = CC-Monahan-Anderson
49-14-11 = RHP-Suzuki-Gallagher
70-15-20 = Pearson-Newhook-Slaf
55-71-56 = Pezz-Evans-Ylonen
MSL is going to tend the rope to Gallagher so much that we are going to be sick of both of them before January.
22-91-17 = CC-Monahan-Anderson

Leafs scored 6 goals that night, 1 at ES..........two on the PP and two with the net empty.
One in the SO of course................
If they don't get this PP/PK shit figured out soon, I am going to lose it..........absolutely brutal coaching.
Brutal..................Gally shouldn't be in the top 6 FFS.These are apparently the line Martin McGuire said were at practices on the radio (read that on twitter):
22-91-17 = CC-Monahan-Anderson
49-14-11 = RHP-Suzuki-Gallagher

Suzuki will 100% get going by playing with RHP and Gallagher. Great idea.
He’s gonna score 2 just to never play with Gally again.

Just want to know if Pezz has come down from whatever this was.

Wouldn't that mean the line works and MSL will keep them together longer...

Is MSL trying to ruin Suzuki? I'll give him a couple more games to get his act together but the DD treatment for Gallagher needs to end.
WTF is going on? Why is this scrub Gallagher still in the lineup???
The preferential treatment is getting ridiculous.

Agreed. I don’t think his 1st game in almost a month should be against Buffalo (3rd in goals scored last season) or NJ (4th in goals scored last season, unless their strategy is to have him let in a lot of goals to make it easier to pass through waivers.
