Montreal Canadiens

Sekac can do more in one shift than Bourque did all year.

Tinordi back to minors. I expect that he and Beaulieu will rotate on the Hamilton/Montreal shuttle a lot.

Another convincing win over the Bruins, love it!

Nice Gordie Howe hat trick by the dead man...

Here's the clip of Beaulieu absolutely leveling Fraser...so very, very sweet:

Both fights had knock-downs.

For those looking for spot starts, look for Tokarski to start one of the weekend B2B games. Unfortunately, the games are against the Flyers and Red Wings. Not really a slam dunk either way.

Read this today too...since 2006, the Habs are 40-18 in the regular season versus the Bruins

[ericdaoust]

Habs were also a Beaulieu goal short of getting two Gordie Howe hat tricks in the same game.

Price will be in goal on Saturday. In all likelihood Tokarski will play Sunday (not confirmed yet though).

I know EOTP is very advanced stats oriented and a lot of people don't like it but this text by Berkshire is kinda alarming.

Little snippet :

Counting 5-on-3 chances, the Canadiens have put up a 26.7% powerplay conversion rate against the Bruins since December 3rd, while going 11.1% against the rest of the league. Part of that is likely the peril of small samples, but even in the playoffs the ice cold powerplay was a difference maker against Boston.

The coolest thing about that article is the Subban picture.



Hopefully his arms can be like that for real so he stops grabbing on to everyone.

Since Dec. 3? Kind of taking a specific date to make the stats work in their favour, eh?

Yeah I guess, but it's still almost one calendar year......

In an unrelated story, I worked at my old job for three years minus one week. Oct 3rd 2011 to Sept 26 2014. I still claim it as three years of experience.

Sorry it's Friday...
