Pretty rough night for Montreal. :o

Yep, I would say so Don ..

Poor Price was left to the wolfs by his teammates ,, seems there's more than a few Montreal players that are more interested in headhunting than playing hockey ... :rolleyes:

Lucic did a bonehead thing himself late in the game with the high cross check to a players head .. but in his defense he, himself was just sticked in the face just before that incident .. ;)

Going to Montreal is going to be tough, but if the B's keep playing the disciplined game they should be OK .. ;)

It wouldn't matter............... Price couldn't stop a rolling basketball coming at him :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

He may have been good playing in the World Juniors.......... but the NHL is a different game ;)

Looked like abit of goonie work from both teams :rolleyes:

You don't really think Halak has what it takes to stop the B's or any other team do you ?? Price is that teams best hope he just needs to have a better defense in front of him and some better back support from the forwards ... ;)

One thing I've noticed about the habs is that their forwards aren't that willing to skate back hard enough for a effective back check and defensive support role .. Watch how the Bruins roll out a layered defense each shift ... and then attack in layers as well .. ;)

Don't know about both sides have the goonies Lewis but Milan sure did lose his composer last night .. :eek: I just hope nothing more comes from it ... ;)

That in itself will get you into deep do-do.

If a guy goes out on a shift looking to hut someone, he's eventually going to go out of his way (out of his zone) to do it. That leave open ice for the other team to fill and capitalize on. Just ask Philly from game 1 against the Pens (that was one of their downfalls anyways). Stay on your game and cover your zone and the hits will come naturally. You don't have to go looking for them. Orpik and Kunitz are hitting everything that moves....in their ice.

Orpik is a beast when it comes to clean crushing hits!!!:D

Yep. Beast............yep. ;)

Actually met him a little over a year ago with 4 other Pens. Heck of a nice guy and not as big as I thought he'd be. Still would rather walk around him on the street than drop the gloves & go. :D:D:D

luke..............and you call the Habs goons ? :eek:

I think I already said that I didn't agree with what Milan did .... and deserves this game off ... :p:p

But now let's cover this ,,, why didn't the player (can't remember the name) get a suspension for using the butt of his stick in Milans face just pryor to this incident ?? ... :confused::confused:

And Milan is one player ,, your team seems to have an over abundance of wanna be goons that do this very stuff game after game ... :rolleyes::rolleyes: Why didn't Komersaric get 4 min for drawing blood on Ward from a high stick ,, better yet why isn't he sitting out a game ?? ... :p:p
