So much whining about Budaj getting a game in.

He hasn't started a game in over 3-weeks and we're almost at the Olympic break. He needs to get some work in.

Winnipeg plays in the West, maybe Therrien still thinks they're in the East, otherwise I don't see any reason as to why you don't play your best goalie versus divisional teams that are ahead of you.
If he isn't injured, the only thing I can think of is that Bergevin feels he has a better chance of winning versus TB and Winnipeg, and so would rather have Price ready for those games. But that means back to back games for Price because there's no way Budaj is the one that will play 2 of the next 3 games in four nights, is there??

Injury or sickness is the only thing that makes sense.

Betcha the trainer was called up cause Bourque needs to pass a physical to be traded... which won't happen as he has severe concussion problems

:laugh: You're such a tease Blou... Can't wait to see the rest of this chef d'oeuvre!

Bruins board is too funny: they say Budaj will start because Carey has been shaky recently. They obviously didn't watch many Habs games and don't have a clue what they're talking about (what's new?)! :shakehead

I'm feeling this one, GO HABS GO!!!

Up until last game, a large portion of your board was saying Price was shaky. I think you're being a little critical.

I think Carey Price is an elite goaltender. It drives me crazy when he gets called overrated by certain fans around the league. A truly bad performance by him is more rare than pretty much any other goaltender in my book, and I'm including the Bruins goaltender Tuukka Rask.

^^You guys just assume that she really works with the team?

We don't have independent confirmation but her twitter description says:

Student-figurer skater-coach-writer. Work with the Montreal Canadiens - LWOS-Senior Analyst... Sports Injury Alert-Central division leader.

She's wearing a lot of hats. She's a student but then she's a senior analyst, writer, coach ...

I think I'll open a Twitter Account and appoint myself CEO.

Why the hell is MT starting Budaj against a division rival?

I get what you're saying, maybe some fans (incl. Habs fans) just looked at the stats and didn't really see him in action. But those who watched him play on a regular basis during our last (awful, awful) games know he stole a few ones and minimized the bleeding when we lost. Glad to hear other fans realize how good he his.

Let's all enjoy tonight's game! :cheers:

I believe doctors do the physicals, and how does he have severe problems if he is playing? Just curious how you know all this.

I'm in Montreal for the weeks games. I was thinking of heading to station des sports on Saint Catherine's to watch. Can anyone tell me if this is a decent spot? Looking for a spot with good atmosphere and good but cheap food and drinks.

Ya pretty good spot. I think they jack up their beer prices during game nights but its still affordable.

Don't agree with Budaj starting this one...he could have started the next one. This should have been Price's game. Big game vs. Bruins, coming off a shutout...unless he's hurt, I don't really get it.

Yeah, the price during 'events' is a little more than regular hours. Sports Station is the best of the big name places to go, though (La Cage, Peel Pub and the like). Food is cheap and surprisingly decent.

MT should have started Budaj against Washington. Started Price against Carolina, Boston and Tampa. Budaj against Winnipeg. But Therrien is too dumb to think of that.
