According to TSN, Babcock talked to CJ about what kind of team CJ was going to ice, so Babcock could then pick his players..

I'm kinda glad they did that, wouldn't have been fun to watch a pretty close to optimized Habs team against a Leafs team of AHLers and prospects.

Ahhh, c'mon, I want a win. I don't care how they do it. We're 0-4 so far.

 

[BigTed3]

Lindgren hurt in warmup, Montoya in instead.

[BigTed3]

Too bad, cause this was a chance for Lindgren to steal the back-up job. Montoya has been awful thus far.

[kinot-2]

Singer 3/10. 

[kinot-2]

WTH?????? Monty didn't even move!!!!

 

[kinot-2]

PP,,, for us??? 

 

[kinot-2]

PING 

[jennifer_rocket]

Beautiful goaltending from Montoya.

[kinot-2]

Chuck looks hungry,,,,,,,,,,,,,so far. 

[kinot-2]

This may not take 3 periods. 

[jennifer_rocket]

Matthews. He's good.

[kinot-2]

It's gonna be very easy to hate some of the laffs. 

 

[kinot-2]

They had better do something on this PP   

[kinot-2]

PING.

[habs_93]

I'm still not exactly worried, but this is getting a bit old.

[Regis22]

going to be a long year

[kinot-2]

Gally the goon, do we really need a goon on the team? 

[ramcharger440]

is it just me or have we hit a lot of posts this fall.

[jwlk]

wow what a bad pre season

[BigTed3]

Montoya continues to look brutal. On that 3rd goal, he was way back in his net when the initial shot came, he wasn't square, he didn't track the rebound, and then he didn't lock up against his post. So many goaltending flaws on the same play.

[BigTed3]

Alzner also looks pretty brutal. Slow.

Petry keeps backing up defensively.

Nothing bright happening on defence tonight.
