Pre-Game Talk: Montreal vs. Anaheim: Sunday @ 4:00PM EST (TSN2 / RDS)

[Lshap]

The dreaded post-Xmas + January schedule is done, with Montreal turning their season – and expectations – around with a 10-5-2 record against the toughest teams in the league.

The last four games were rough, but now they're up against three weaker California teams, starting Sunday afternoon. Do the Habs get back on track? Can they compensate for the loss of Guhle? Discuss...

3-2 Montreal is my prediction in OT most likely.

...as long as it isn't a snoozefest like the game against the Wild, I'll be happy...

This west coast trip makes or breaks it for us. If we go 3-0 we are right back in it. 0-3 and we better just give up. 1-1-1 and it is not enough to propel us and likely puts us right into 12-16 territory (ie. purgatory).

So.....I am rooting for....

1) that we go 3-0
or
2) that we go 0-3

[Tyson]

The chances of beating the kings are right up there with how easily we beat the Wild

 

[McGees]

Big fat L coming up unless 1 man can put the team on his back once again.

Is of course, Pezz.

Habs lose in regulation the Ducks are only 3 points behind.

Ducks are currently 5th last.

LA and Minnesota have alot in common in terms of style. That's an auto loss right there.

Tomorrow afternoon, 4 PM

Yeah, only 5 pts out of 5th draft spot -- again. Bottom 4 isn't going to change.

It's something else that at this point in the season with only 31 games left, we're simultaneously 4 points out of a playoff spot and 5 points out of 5th last overall.

As long as Calgary misses the playoffs, I'll be happy wherever we finish...But if we're not going to make the playoffs, would be sweet to fall into 5th last right at the end of the season...

Kings are shit but they will probably have lost 7-8 in a row by the time Habs play them.
