We definitely need greater contributions from anyone other than Suzuki & Caufield. Monahan & Dach combining in OT last game was a good start.

So I pull an all nighter working on a Pre-Game thread and you just swoop in and start your own?

It’s all due to his lesser known identity as “Global Pillager”.So I pull an all nighter working on a Pre-Game thread and you just swoop in and start your own?

Bob Hartley is always so good with his expressions.
Today, JiC was talking about James Neal being sent down to the AHL last year from St. Louis to Springfield. He says that should be something the Habs do with a Hoffman, Dadonov or Drouin. Hartley tells him to be careful because you don't want to send a porcupine to a balloon party.

I think Dvorak and Gally should be split up. But I missed last game and many said they played well, just didn't finish.

I've liked the Gallagher/Dvorak duo. They're not spectacular, but effective. Gallagher just needs to work on his aim a little bit because I think he's hit like 3 or 4 posts so far.

If that duo is kept together, I think the best player to complete that line as a two way shutdown line is ... Jake Evans. Evans-Danault-Gallagher were really good together in our cup finals run, especially before the Scheifele hit.
Maybe Hughes could trade one of our bad winger contracts (Drouin, Dadonov, Hoffman, Armia) for an equally bad 4C contract? Or just bury one of them and sign Tyler Pitlick.

If you split them up, the other lines get skewed. The issue is having Dadonov on their line. I'd put Drouin in that spot. Dadonov is horrible

I'd also like to try Drouin with Dvorak. Dvorak is a center that isn't a playmaker. If Drouin is going to succeed anywhere it would be there. MSL says he coaches every player individually. Well with Drouin his project would have to be to work with him all year up until the trade deadline on cutting down on the turnovers.

So glad that the Habs are no longer a small team. Nice to have some beef on D and up front.

Barometer game for sure. Forget the games against top team who don't take us seriously. This is the game where we will see what his team got. Must win or must lose game depending on where you stand

Montreal not that bad a team actually. Since emerge of Guhle. Adding Dach and Monahan. They are a .500 team. About like Anaheim last year.

If games get rough, I'm glad we have Caufield on the team to protect his teamates.

Yes he protected Drouin of some insults by the fans and journalists last game by burying his pass to tie the game

If we lose, I'm happy because that helps us for the Bedard derby. If we win, I'm happy because Arizona was good enough to beat Toronto (that Dangle reaction video was priceless).
Either way, we want to see goals! Many goals!

More like a .400 team but hard to say for sure. Could be worse, could be better. Others have "tank fever" so maybe they are right.
All I know is I see a better season from this group.

This should be a high scoring affair. Multiple points for Nick and Cole please.

Arizona's D is not good, so I want to see some goals in this game!

We might have more puck possession in this game. Coyotes are not great on faceoffs.

Well, we finished .335 last year, so .400 is an improvement. It's a 10-11 point difference.

.439% with MSL.
I doubt we go 7-22-4 from Oct-Jan 1st this season (0.273%)
Somewhere between 0.4 and 0.45 is where I would guess.

San Jose showing how the tank is done , Anaheim also going for Bedard. He will be in California.
I think AZ wins this, they are pumped after beating the Leafs.

how can anyone like the line up with Hoffman on the list, unless he is on any other team except the Habs.
The Habs beat the leafs first, than lost the next 2, hope that Arizona loses at least the next one, especially because they play the HABS.
