Yeah you can come out as a Habs fan. No one around here really cares either way. Just as long as no one from either side starts trolling the thread.
I hope we can use our speed a little tonight. Boston is a very good team, and they can tire us out by simply throwing us around. Think how the Sharks were able to play us in the playoffs a couple of times, only we have nothing near the scoring ability that we had then. I expect SOB to be dragged into a stupid penalty, I just hope it doesn't end up being a major. He went from arguably our fourth best defender to a liability. I hate to say it, but Canucks fans have been proven right over the past couple of months.
Here's to a good, hard, clean game. No injuries for either side. Preds score at least one more than Boston, and then we can all go out and start pouring Guinness down our throats until we forget about yesterday and wake up confused tomorrow

Speed use to cause us some major issues but we have gotten a little better in that department. I wouldn't worry to much about SOB getting into it to much our one crap disturber is suspended. I said earlier the most interesting matchup of this game is going to be Horton and Lucic vs Weber and Suter as thats the first d-pair they have faced that will be able to deal with their physical play.

Weber and Suter are definitely a treat to watch, and we're lucky to see them every single game. It'll be fun...
I wouldn't put it past SOB to just get frustrated out there if it starts getting chippy. These teams don't see each other very often, but we are in a very tight play off race. It'd expect the Preds to turn this into a playoff-style game, and Boston has shown to be more than willing to get aggressive. O'Brien doesn't really need an agitator to set him off. We'll see
