With Max and Shaw.
Why is the headliner on the top line then?
I actually like Max and Shaw on the same line, if only they could find him a true, offensive skilled centre
Is Mitchell playing with Radulov?
nah you could swap in Friberg Matteau DLR you wouldn't know the difference
So anybody wanna tell me what exactly was wrong with the lines we put out against the Kings and the Wings with Danault as 3C?
What was wrong with Danault/Pacioretty/Shaw? They seemed to have instant chemistry
Hmm... I don't completely hate those lines, in theory. McCarron instead of DD would make that line look like something I'd rather watch, though, maybe even have Carr in there instead of either Hudon or Terry. Guess we'll see.
Canadiens projected lineup

Paul Byron -- Alex Galchenyuk -- Alexander Radulov
Phillip Danault -- Tomas Plekanec -- Brendan Gallagher

Nathan Beaulieu -- Joel Hanley
Carey Price

I'm listening to Hockey Central and Doug Maclean really comes off as a jerk. They were talking about rookies scoring in their first game and Maclean says "We had this kid Zherdev who I worked hard to get him out of the military, although I wish he stayed in the military". It was a joke but still, then Colby Armstrong saves the day by telling a simple story.
Really wish we would just keep Danault at centre and develop him properly there. He could be a good one...
Seems like Therrien is trying everything but the obvious to get Pacioretty going. No surprise there. Just put him in an offensive role with Galch and Rads. Maybe he will stop moping if he's gifted a few tap ins from those 2. Byron's energy might wake up Pleks and Gally too.
Pac-----Galch----Rads
Byron---Pleks----Gally
Hudon--Dan-----Shaw
Leftovers

Hanley again
I guess we play with 5 D's once again
