    Default Flyers 1, Canadiens 4

    General thoughts

    Solid all-around effort. The Habs dominated on the scoreboard and in shots on goal. They got better as the game progressed. That said, the Flyers barely showed up tonight. Things are not looking good over there.

    Carey Price

    He was not overly busy but made a few key saves. When the team is controlling the play the last thing you want is for the goalie to allow a soft one. Price shut the door when called upon.

    Galchenyuk-Eller-Gallagher

    Simply outstanding. Every time they are on the ice they get chances to score.

    Bourque-Plekanec-Gionta

    Much better than last time. Bourque and Gionta were especially good setting each other up for goals.

    Prust-Desharnais-Briere

    Not much from this line. Desharnais was invisible. Briere is trying but has to stop taking dumb penalties when he loses the puck.

    Moen-Bournival-White

    Didn't notice them much. Bournival showed flashes when he did play. White was good overall but going after Simmonds in the third was unnecessary.

    Subban-Gorges

    Solid night for both. Subban did very well controlling the puck and overcoming the added focus that other teams will put towards shutting him down on the power play.

    Markov-Diaz

    Markov was very good. No mistakes and a ton of chances generated from his stick. Diaz on the other hand is off to a rough start. He is very soft, makes too many mistakes and gets caught with penalties.

    Bouillon-Tinordi

    Not really noticeable but that is a good thing. They did not get beat. They had more ice time towards the end of the game when the outcome was decided.

    that Galchenyuk-Eller-Gallagher line is a keeper, they've got great chemistry and shit just seems to happen when they're on the ice, part of it is hard work, part is creativity, part of it is skill but it all works really well together

    Add confidence to that list... the kids believe in themselves a lot, and the result is amazing. That kind of confidence began to be built at the end of last season, and was missing (which is normal) in the first dozen games.

    Eller's line finally getting some PP time helped... well, almost half the game was played on special teams, so if they weren't getting ice time there, they would have ended up with less than 10:00.

    Good to see Eller rewarded... and Desharnais' leash is already getting shorter. Hope for him and the team that MaxPac injury is minor.

    - Therrien also confirmed that Peter Budaj will make his first start of the season at some point during the road trip.

    - Lars Eller was named the NHL's Second Star of the Week after registering three goals and five points through the first two games of the 2013-14 campaign. Alex Ovechkin garnered first star honors, while Marc-Andre Fleury was named the third star.

    Gionta had to get out of the plane that took te Habs to Calgary. Apparently, one of his sons was taken to the hospital. It's not sure wheter or not he'll join his teamates in time for Wednesday night.

    Also, for some reason Rotoworld posted an update saying Parros would not be on the trip. I think most of us saw this coming but in case you didn't, well there you go.

    At least their team building activity wasn't bowling this time...

    Man, I'm sure I say this every season, but the schedule leaves a lot to be desired. After the opening night, the Habs have played one game in the last seven days. We're only a week into the season. Hard to build momentum.

    Come March, when the Olympic break is done and the team is playing five games in nine days and are exhausted, we can look back at this week and wonder why they couldn't get one of those games in now.

    Writer of the weekly Top 10 column.

    12-team Keeper pool, straight points for forwards & dmen. Goalies get: 2 points per win, 3 per shutout, 1 point per assist & 1 point per shootout loss.

    League champ in 2013, 2015, 2018, 2020 and 2022.

    Top 8 forwards, 5 dmen and 2 goalies count.

    We keep 15 players (any position) plus two rookies.

    Forwards: Panarin, Ovechkin, Kopitar, Stamkos, Tuch, Rust, Marchessault, Pavelski, Miller, Bertuzzi, Stone, Kakko, Brown, Stankoven, Kovalenko
    Defence: Hedman, Fox, Matheson, Thrun, Jiricek
    Goalies: Kochetkov, Talbot, Vasilevskiy, Campbell, Schmid

    You would think that an olympic year would force the NHL to add more games early. And you would think the players would have fought for better scheduling when they had the opportunity. Can't be any good for them when they play so often down the stretch.
