still 2 more minutes of pp time for the canadians

Leafs already have the worst PK in the league.

Now tied tied.

their defense looked like last year already, flailing around in their own end without a freaking clue.

It's been REALLY bad so far.

yep...not sure I expect it to get a whole lot better, but it is still early. Other teams need time to gel too, so I'm not putting too much credence into the theory that MTL will magically pick it up... They just aren't a good team.

by **marakh** on Thu Oct 01, 2009 7:55 pm

Man, both team's defense are awful. Our forwards are gonna have some fun this year on the PP.

Sign me for Campoli and Karlsson with 40+ pts this year.

by Hockeyhero22000 on Thu Oct 01, 2009 7:57 pm

i will say this though Gionta looks good

by Guest on Thu Oct 01, 2009 7:57 pm

Im watching this game and basically licking my lips. Toronto's D looks awful and MTL's is even worse. Komiserek takes a penalty already and they score right away. That will be a common theme all year.

by **SensFan71** on Thu Oct 01, 2009 7:57 pm

Kovalev will eat these teams alive if he shows up to play.

"out we go with a great pass"

the pass was like 10 inches in front of him!

which team was that for? Is it Toronto homerism? Wait until they see Karlsson pass the puck up the ice, that kid has skillz.

They were talking about Kaberle---they started it with "sometimes the best trade you make is the one you...don't make

Kaberle is good but it was just some of that homerism

by Guest on Thu Oct 01, 2009 8:03 pm

As poor as Toronto was in their own zone, they had NOTHING on MTL there. It's early obviously but that does not look good for Montreal.

god that Dung makes me sick, toronto sucks CBC/TSN, get over it, they will always suck, Burke or not.

Thoedore has looked solid for Washington incase anyone cares.

I figured Varlamov would be getting the start.

by Guest on Thu Oct 01, 2009 8:10 pm

Nope, Theo is the starter.

by **SensFan71** on Thu Oct 01, 2009 8:12 pm

N4L wrote:Nope, Theo is the starter.

does that mean Theo has outplayed Varlamov in the pre season or is Theo just given the start because of his contract? Boston will crack him though, hopefully Ryder is good for a couple goals.

Washington looks pretty good...

just me or is Gil, Latendress and O'Bryne not very good?

Gill was only as good as his defense partner in pittsburgh last year, his defense partner made him look way better than he is.

by Guest on Thu Oct 01, 2009 8:22 pm

Gil and Mara are AWFUL.

by Guest on Thu Oct 01, 2009 8:24 pm

Habs are in a lot of trouble. There are going to be better forwards then Orr setting up his linemates.

by **marakh** on Thu Oct 01, 2009 8:25 pm

Either Plekanec and Kostitsyn have career years or I'm gonna have fun wiht my Habs fans friends this year

Like Ottawa's 3 scoring lines we will be rolling out against them.

by **marakh** on Thu Oct 01, 2009 8:27 pm

THis is the kind of game where KOvalev would have taken the puck and taken over the game. You screwed up, Gainey.

by **marakh** on Thu Oct 01, 2009 8:27 pm

I predict 50 points for Shannon this year.

I hope Kovalev proves that on every shift he takes against the Habs (other teams too please)

by **SensFan71** on Thu Oct 01, 2009 8:30 pm

Moen scores, 2-1 Habs....best pickup Montreal made.

by **marakh** on Thu Oct 01, 2009 8:31 pm

I can't believe "experts" are puting Tampa and Florida below these teams. Weiss and BOoth are probably licking their lips if they are watching this.

got Weiss in my hockey pool, so am hoping he lights it up.

by **marakh** on Thu Oct 01, 2009 8:35 pm

Florida have the chemistry, they skate everywhere. One of the best transition game in the EAst. If they faced that kind of D (MTL and TOR tonight), Weiss and Booth could get 70 pts his year.

It is what it is, these two teams will be at the bottom of the conferance. No way do these teams finish 8-9 lolol.

and that is after losing J-Bo, so you can imagine how good it would have been if they kept him. (maybe he is overhyped though

)

by **marakh** on Thu Oct 01, 2009 8:45 pm

That Kulikov kid is gonna make them forget Jbo in 2 years.

by Hockeyhero22000 on Thu Oct 01, 2009 8:46 pm

why was Eli wilson coaching price in the offseason??

by **marakh** on Thu Oct 01, 2009 8:47 pm

And of course, habs fans on HF are blaming the refs
