GDT: Welcome Back Patty | MTL @ CBJ | 7 PM EST

[CBJWerenski8]

Final game before the holiday break. Hopefully we can step away with the win.

Lines and goalies later.

This marks the first game back for Laine. Who is on quite the PP tear for montreal. Glad he’s doing well and seemingly in a better mindset. We have to account for him and their powerplay.

Merry Christmas and happy holidays to all on HFCBJ.

I wish you, you know what,
to get you there, you know where,
to rejoice with you know who,
to have many things, you know what.

Don't take penalties and if you do, don't let Laine camp out in the spot we never seemed to put him in on the power play. I do wonder if Elvis did tweak something on the final save Saturday night that led to the Jet recall.

So if Z and Fabbro are in that must mean Christiansen is out

Also, what a novel idea, Skating Provorov WITH Mateychuk. We CAN keep both of them.

Thread should be more “Welcome Mateychuk” based IMO. Honestly, as much as I hate to say it, there have been probably around a couple dozen former jackets that I’ve had more anticipation for their return game than Patty’s.

That said, he’ll undoubtedly score a PP goal tonight. Over Jet’s right shoulder. I can so easily visualize it, it’s wild.

Werenski-Fabbro
Mateychuk-Provorov
Christiansen-Severson

Pretty appealing group to me

Guys know him and we have better defense than Detroit or Buffalo. Besides, he can't score goals every game. And at 5v5 he not only skated bad, but obe is playing with Dach, who also hasn't played all season. So, I don't think he and his line will be dangerous.

I've wanted to see this tried so badly

Jody told 97.1 just now maybe Severson sits. For what it’s worth.

Is he hurt too or just because they don't like his game right now?

I'm also surprised 97.1 is talking hockey. I figured they fill the entire week felatiating the OSU football team and trashing Kirk Herbstreit like a jilted ex girlfriend.
