And we still do not know how awesome MaxPac can be.
I suspect his ceiling his very high...
Looks like McDonagh is going to be good as well. Habs had a good draft in 07 when you include that Conboy and Fortier also have outside chances of making the team some day or the NHL at least. I want them to sign Stejskal as well, we could use a good open ice hitter in a 5-7 D role if he can improve.
Komi was a good player with us...for his role. Schenn is a good young kid, let's not hate because he's a leaf. I would take shenn on our team for sure.

Fortier doesn't really have a chance, unless he improves, or does a Darche.
But I kinda feel bad for Theodore. Always like him when he was in Montreal but everything seems to collapse for him when he plays against his former team.
He let 5 goals but what could he do? A perfect play on a 2 on 1 from White and Pouliot, an amazing blast by Kostitsyn after a defensive turnover, a puck deflected by the skate of his dman, a crazy play on a 2 vs 0 by Cammy and the Wiz.
He looked lost on the 5th goal though but his dmans should have cleared the rebound pretty easily.
It just shows how well the Habs played (and how bad was the Minnesota's defence).
Theo was left out to dry. I suppose the kostitsyn goal is suspect but we've seen ak make goalies look foolish from that range before.

I suggest you do. Responding to trolls is the biggest waste of time. They want to get under your skin, responding badly can get you infracted and not to mention you'll make the troll win.

I just realized that this was our 40th win of the season! Last year, we only had 39 wins and we still have 9 games left. I'm hoping we get to 45 wins. That would be a really, really solid season in any instance never mind with all the injuries we've endured.
Last year, we finished the season with 88 points. We are at 87 right now. If we can pick up 5 more wins that's another 10 points. A 5-3-1 record would give us 98 points.
We'd have to go 6-2-1 to get to 100 pts, which I think is too much to ask with all our injuries. Or, we could go 5-1-3, which is more do-able.
It was almost too easy. The Wild played very poorly. A lot of Habs inflated their stats tonight but winning and not suffering any more injuries was a big relief. Beating the Sabres won't be easy but it has to be done if the Habs are to have any chance of moving up in the standings.

#Habs Desharnais is behind only Skinner, Couture and Grabner in rookie points per game, playing at least 2 fewer minutes per game than all 3
Haha, thanks man. What a game tonight.

#Habs Desharnais has best production rate (points per minutes played) among all NHL rookies this season.
Just showing some quick results (approximate numbers, probably off a few seconds);
David Desharnais - 19:38 TOI/point
Michael Grabner - 22:19 TOI/point
Jeff Skinner - 22:59 TOI/point
Logan Couture - 26:12 TOI/point

Wild played 4 away games in the span of 7 days, flew back home with one day rest and then had to play 2 games in 2 nights. Very tough point in their schedule, so I'm not surprised they came out rather flat today.
