Of course he's dangling through other Habs, so not thaaat big a deal.

He picked up this wobbly Caufield pass perfectly

No pressure, Matt Murray.

Little surprised they aren't trying Kerfoot or Jarnkrok at 2C with the news Tavares will miss some games.

Isn't that Kerfoot right there at 2C?

I meant like regular-season-2C aka Nylander's centre.

I suspect they'd prefer to look at combinations they haven't seen before. We have a pretty good idea about what Kerfoot and Nylander are like on the same line.

Did Matthews and Marner decide to take in the final Jays/Yankees game instead?

I think they are very interested to see if the Nylander - Holmberg - Malgin line can be a real thing (scoring 'third' line).

Given who is on that line, I, of course, heartily endorse this course of action, even if Holmberg will eventually be shuffled back down to 1C for the Marlies (future 3C of the playoff run) when Tavares/Engvall return.

I want them to give Tavares a pair of heavy forecheckers that will just bounce bodies and centre pucks for the captain and run the stars spread out for the much of the early season. Tavares and Nylander both run better when they are each the top banana on the line and aren't deferring to one another.

This is the first pre-season game I'll be able to watch, looking forward to it!

GO LEAFS GO!

Yeah I love this Habs goalie, I wish he had played in that playoff series against the Leafs

 

[CarltonTheBear]

Benn and Dahlstrom out for the night. Time to play Malgin on D.

Lol they're actually playing Kerfoot and Jarnkrok on D.

The legend of Jarnkrok grows. The next Red Kelly

Well that sorts out any cap issues
