MONTREAL CANADIENS vs. PITTSBURGH PENGUINS

IN PITTSBURGH @ 7:35pm ET

RADIO FEED ON WXDX.com

CANADIENS BLOG: HABS EYES ON THE PRIZE


Projected line up tonight, via NHL.com, looks fairly familiar:

Forwards
Kunitz-Crosby-Guerin
Bourque-Malkin-Fedotenko
Cooke-Staal-Adams
Dupuis-Rupp-Godard

Defense
Orpik-Letang
Eaton-Skoula
McKee-Goligoski

Netminder
Fleury

I'll sadly be of absence from this one due to the fact I'll be attending a Milwaukee Admirals game with the ol' dad. For a laugh, if he checks in, do pester Frank about how the Admirals beat the Penguins a few weeks back. It clearly had a lot to do with the goalie's helmet.

I’m curious to see the Habs because I have tickets to the Blackhawks / Canadiens game on Friday… their behavior tonight will probably determine which team I cheer for when I go.

Regarding Admirals/Penguins – apparantly the makers of NHL 10 insisted on making the Admirals one of the most ridiculous teams in the game. When I played Lavender a week or two ago, I was the Pens and he was the Admirals. I put about 50 shots on net and his goaltender saved 49 of em before going on to take the win in a shootout. Lame. Lame. Lame.

That was a real nice goal but I can’t believe how much credit Errey is giving Kunitz. The MON D literally passed the puck right into his skates. Brutal defensive play.

It always makes other teams a little more cautious and hesitant around the points when you have a legit SH threat on the ice. I like using your scorers on your second unit because the other team is generally going to have a more tired first unit on the ice and you can try to take advantage of it.

Ha. At least Dupuis is on a reasonable contract and can play some D (right?). Nylander is useless if he’s not performing as a top 6 F, which he isn’t.

(But I will always respect Nyls for how professionally he is handling this, couldn’t ask for more.)

And a slapshot. If he could just skate straight ahead and boom a shot every single time down the ice, he’d probably score 20 a year. Too bad that’s impossible.

Dup also has a knack for shooting right into the goalies pads. the other night against the Devs he and two others had a 3-on-1. All he had to do was shoot to create a rebound (or, uh, pass) and instead he shoots right into Marty’s chest.

I can buy that. I’m very cynical on the media. I was outright pissed that all the Mike Green weight issues didn’t come out until training camp this year even though all the beat writers knew about it last year. My cynical interpretation is that the writers didn’t want to risk pissing off Green/The Caps and lose access. Garbage.

Really I think Kunitz is going through something like Aaron Smith did last season where his kid got sick, the media knew but didn’t report it.

I have no knowledge of what Kunitz’s issues are right now — I am NOT saying any of his kids are sick or anything — but I don’t really have a problem with what FSN is doing tonight.

Don’t know if you remember/saw it, but they highlighted a Kunitz goal as a key to the game….Not unusual to follow up on that point when he’s piling up assists.

I don’t think you should be able to do either. I also think it’s 100% bush league to throw a “hip check” while skating forward. Hip checks should all be thrown from skating backwards.

I thought DET was going to win their division again this year, and probably the West. I’ve re-evaluated that position as well. I would have abandoned it but CHI hasn’t sold me (more specifically, Huet).

Agreed.

Perhaps I shouldn’t point out in the Pensburgh league Huet is my other top goalie (if you could call Osgood a top goalie).

I have a feeling a suprise team (ala Edmonton in 2006) might come out of the West this season, standings wise.

Since training camp that place has been at least ten degrees colder. It’s funny and annoying. They let it heat up all summer and the ice got shitty. But as soon as the Caps show up, theeeen they cool it off and give us good ice. Jerks.

What a night for the first line.

Crosby – 3 Goals

Kunitz – 3 Assists

Guerin – 3 Assists

By the way, Ryan Miller is playing out of his mind lately. Sabres beat Devils 4-1. Now 7-1-1. Not bad.

Praying for a Godard goal. Preferably assisted by Bourque, somehow.

what were the odds before the game that Godard scores a PP Goal… 1 to 3000?

Okay I'm watching the French channel so I'm not understanding any of the commentary

And they are dragging some kind of elevated shelf on wheels across the ice. What the hell is going on?

Sid is being way too restrained on Mike Richards. You know what he wants to say, so just say it.

“I’m not the guy that needs to make 8 hits a game to have a job.”

Well neither is Richards.

“It’s easy to say maybe he should have hit his shoulder.”

That’s because that’s what he should have done.

He’s still somewhat diplomatic.

I wonder if Crosby would have said that if Richards had hit a Penguin like he did Booth. Sid probably wouldn’t even have said that much.

Officially…2 goals in 41 games does not qualify a player for my bashing…so Kuni is in the clear till the All-Star break.

Butchers – FYI I have enjoyed your comments and explanation on your thoughts about Kunitz. I might not necessarily agree but at least you back your thoughts up with stats. It’s good to see Kunitz score!

I do appreciate it….and I don’t hate or dislike Kunitz. I’m just trying to generate debate and keep everyone on the Pens equally accountable.
