So who are Habs dressing against the sens' good squad? Ylonen? Evans?
But I agree... it's not worth the risk playing Xhekaj against these clowns.

we should just dress our full line up tonight against those all stars.
To be fair, they can't bring their good players as they are all recovering from playing 30 mins in their last game against the Leafs. In what world does it make sense to have guys playing 30 mins in their 1st preseason game of the year.

Technically speaking: Caufield, Suzuki, Dach, Monahan, Pearson, RHP, Kidney, Mesar, Heineman, Matheson, Trudeau, Norlinder, Savard, Kovacevic amongst others all sit last game, I expected many of them to play tonight.....but now I'm not so sure.

Sens are such sourpusses. So because an actual NHL calibre rookie beat them up last year they hold that grudge for a year and ice a bunch of goons.

Montreal should just ice an AHL roster, plus the necessary vets required for the NHL content. The vets won't fall into the trap of fighting with losers for absolutely nothing.

In what world does it make sense that an imbecile like D J Smith has a coaching job??

Sens have been dressing goons against the Habs for 5-6 years now. Evans got two concussions out of it (in back-to-back years) in his prospects days if I remember properly.

Xhejak's rookie tournament action last year just reminded them they were tiny puss, so now instead of 2 goons, they dress 4-5. They are pathetic.

The joke thematic trickled down from the top. Curious to see how they conduct business under new ownership.
I think things and people will change. saw a couple of quotes attributed to Andlauer from a couple of days ago.

Told Pierre Dorion "I hold you accountable, you pick the coach, Its not for me to decide." and on Pinto "we've put ourselves in a pickle with the salary cap"

I expect Dorion's leash is pretty short

Over the 50 years of watching the Habs I have seen some amazing rivalries, most notably with the Bruins and to a lesser extent the Maple Leafs. I always hated the Bruins but I respected them and still do. Toronto is insignificant to me. Ottawa on the other hand, I have developed a deep, deep hatred for that organization. I just f***ing hate them.

I believe there is a rule that you have to dress a certain number of players that have NHL experience in away games. There is no point in the rule if those players are all 4th and 5th line players. Of course I don't kmow how you could word the rule to force a team to bring a player or 2 worth watching.

I can respect the Bruins
I can laugh at the Leafs
But I have nothing but pity for Ottawa
