Pre-Game Talk: Habs vs Blues

[Habssince89]

Every game is a big game, but this one is biiiig.

A week off to work on the defensive mess, get healthy(ish), and use the experience of the early struggles to find a way to improve. MSL has a task ahead, but this is what we should expect with the young Dcore. We're still in that painful growth window and if we want to grow into a contender, the young D is going to have to be thrown in the deep end a bit and come up swimming, or not and we move on to the next one.

I predict Slaf back in the lineup, Xhekaj drawing in and playing well, and a 4-1 Habs victory.

Not expecting anything if Marty continues to handle them with kid gloves. Next reported practice better be skating them into the ground.

I love MSL as a person but a coach he is not. Our PP sucks, our pk is starting to get exposed now, and his overall 5 vs 5 system has us in our own zone for minutes at a time. I don't see us winning anytime soon. Midget coaching at it's best.

But that will result in about half a dozen injuries... They are already so short handed.
