What’s the point of benching Gustafsson just to go right back to him in the next game? Why is he in the lineup if the coach isn’t even willing to play him on the PP.

And what has Romanov done to not get a chance?

We could definitely make a case for Armia-Perry-Staal being the best 4th line in hockey right now

And while everything is going swimmingly, Petry gets injured. Hopefully he’s able to return soon.

Corey Perry hadn't scored a goal in 25 games and started to play with Josh Anderson's stick. Since then, Anderson hasn't scored. What's up with that ****ing stick?

So basically the only confirmation is that Jon Merrill is still injured.

Does Merrill go in if we win today or did the line up start the same?

I was pointing out that since Merrill isn’t an option to potentially replace Petry that means he’s still injured. I’m not sure when he’ll be able to return.

I’m not exactly sure what you’re asking though.

I'm asking do you think if Merrill is healthy and habs win today, does DD put Merrill in or stays with Gus and Kulak. For the semis. I think he should keep Gus and Kulak in.

I agree, he’ll likely keep Gustafsson in, at least until we see something more that shows why he shouldn’t be playing.

So I did some digging, and since the 2013-14 season, this is Montréal’s record in the playoffs with Carey Price in net, separated into the amount of goals that the habs scored in each game:

3+ Goals: 23-1
2 Goals: 5-6
1 Goal: 2-8
0 Goals: 0-6

Yeah. I’m not too worried about how long Jake is out, because I don’t think he’s any better or worse than anyone in the lineup. Although being without Petry for even a game or two would be a massive blow for Montréal. Now we just need to hope that Vegas and Colorado go to 7 games.

Friendly reminder that Evans played the most of all forwards in game 1. Not playing him hurts our team everywhere.

He was great, but I wouldn’t put him ahead or behind Lehkonen. And I don’t think Ducharme is going to take Staal out of the lineup, so there isn’t any room for him.

Laval has signed Gabriel Bourque to a 1 year contract. Bourque somehow played all but 4 games for Winnipeg this year, and settles on an AHL contract 4 days after getting eliminated. He must really want to play for the Rocket, because you’d think a guy that played an entire NHL season would have more options, at least to get an NHL contract.
