SIlver linings include:
1)Another game for Huston to play PP1 and this time will have 5 other D with him
2)Great chance for all the young Dmen, especially Mallioux and Struble who haven't played yet, to get in and create some internal competition. Xhekaj & Barron both need to feel pressure
3)Dach would be leaned on more if Slaf is out. Might help spark him
4)The season is still up for grabs so lets see what happens

I would go:
Hutson-Savard
Struble-Barron
Xhekaj-Mallioux

 

[Habs13]

Slaf is out too?!

 

[Habssince89]

Slaf is out too?!

possibly we dont know

 

[Habs]

Do we have unforgiving boards in Montreal? Remember the seamless glass Molson refused to get rid of because it looked pretty and we were getting injured all over the place? Jesus what's up , call an exorcist maybe?

 

[Nico Cauzuki]

Slaf is out too?!

he left practice early something with his shoulder

I think in part this is the answer to "pourquoi pas nous? Pourquoi pas maintenant?" question.

 

[Habs]

he left practice early something with his shoulder

Maybe some goals?

 

[morhilane]

Big chance the Habs play with a single defensive dmen in this game and his name is Savard.
Might have two if Struble replace Xhekaj.

If people considering the Kings game the bottom, sorry to tell you, it can get worst...

I think at this point the best we can hope for is for Barron to continue improving and not not get mental like the rest of the team.

 

[The Real Timo]

What's goals?

 

[Habs]

What's goals?

Maybe next year when his 8 million kicks in?

I don't see Arbs sitting, they need to find a way to play them both.

Just got to laugh it is so freaking sad. Haven’t made it thru October and the writing is on the wall.

NS should get out while he can.

Nick Suzuki? Don’t strike me as the type to crumble in hard times.

 

[Team_Spirit]

They will trap and rope a dope, nobody will push back except the usual 4-5 guys but they are mostly on IR already lol

Prediction; 4-1 NYI boring snooze fest, gonna be 2-1 most of the game.

Me neither, but I feel bad he has to endure this junk year after year.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Here's to hoping there's a better effort.


No one is expecting the Habs to never lose, or not to have off nights, but when 1 of your wins was just some super luck. You played well against Ottawa, who's just another bottom team like the Habs and then lost and didn't even look ok to teams that are either just as bad, or playing bad it makes you wonder.

I think he is a lifer like Price has been. Hard times are part of the rebuild and from what he said he seems to be ok with the expected growing pains of his young team.

Glass half-full would be Hutson on PP1 in order to save Matheson for PK, etc

The right pairs. Will be great to see the youth challenged. There will be mistakes. But it's up to them to rise to the challenge and play through them.

Also will be great to see Hutson on the PP1.

Better times (whenever they happen) shall be all the sweeter.
