Nice game thread.

So who takes out Grabs for the dirty hit on Markov late last season?

Komi will be destroyed by Lucic so why worry about him any more.

Awesome thread. However, not nice calling the Leaf's players losers and traitors but I'm willing to let it go

Haha I tried not to use any swear words and such. They're a whole different species than normal hockey players so the least insulting word is loser and KOMISAREK has the traitor coming

no hammer for tomorrow night?

[sssfffs]

In all seriousness I'm really excited to see this match. Toronto and Montreal could be on the most hyped rivarlies in the NHL and playing the 1st regular season game is just the icing on the cake. The cherry on top is that Komisarek a former Canadiens will be playing them and I'm really pumped to see who would win.

If Montreal wins I get to laugh at all my friends.

If Toronto wins I won't here the end of it until Montreal beats them.

no hammer for tomorrow night?

According to TSN icechips, he is not playing.

Haha he did have a point since its kinda disrespectful. As long as we don't trash the thread with swear words and constant bashing it will all be fine. I think its the HABBY in him that kept it on

I agree. lol. I was just poking fun.

As long as all the disrespect is in good fun, it's all good.

Great gameday thread! Here's hoping you can improve on that signiture under your name (sorry ZetPaul )

The Leafs/Habs haven't had quite the same rivalry in the last few years, I've found....but that's different now for some reason. I don't know if it's because of Komi or because it's the first game of the season or what, but I'm PSYCHED to see this game.

Maybe it's just how much you have to hear Leaf fans go on about their improved new team (as evidenced by the 8 or so threads in around the league that turned into discussing that topic). Anyways, I want a blowout. GO HABS GO!

WOW I can't wait!!!! Nice thread ! Let start off the Season with a BIG W !!! Plus i have a Large DD from Timmy's riding on this game :-) Can't wait to see the Habs flying out there the leafs wont know what hit them! Key's for the game score first and score often! I love it! GO HABS GO!

i thougt that the rules are rules

anyway, i hope that ron wilson won't change his mind about his starting goalie in the first game. vesa toskala is completley out of form, and gustafsson is

!

btw, espn america is broadcasting the game, and i can't wait to see my dear habs in action!

You really might want to reconsider your attitude with that comment. Loser and Traitor is on the bottom of the list when you are argueing with a Moderator and when you said foolish things in the Sergei kostitsyn thread.

Anyways I want this gamethread to be all fun and games.

Now relating to the game I too hope Vesa Toskala is playing and yes I jonas is a good goalie but someone pointed out a good fact saying that he never played a full game and the games he played in are in preseason. On that 2on0 don't get me wrong it was a nice save but if it was gionta and gomez storming into the zone by themselves there is a high chance that the puck will end up in the net

[billy-piton]

i'm not arguing about anything i'm just teasing a little bit. why are you so serious about it?

[wiseguys23]

1 more night until our HABS get to take it to the leafs. Craziest season opener in a long time. Never felt happier to be a HAB fan!

GO HABS GO!!!

[pitbull12]

Finally the Game Thread! Great job as usual! Can't wait for the game.

[GreekHockeyCoach]

I know you're poking fun and I'll answer this in two parts. First the serious part. The rules state that we cannot bash Habs players or management and we cannot make ethnic jokes.

Second part: These are the Laffs we're talking about

Good game day thread but are you sure about the lines? I was told that stajan was now the #1 center for the laffs. And are these montreal lines definate?

[ColRouleBleu]

For now, all I have to say (besides good job on the thread) is this one word: FINALLY !!!

I can't be certain. I just read what TSN icechips had.
