At no point should we engage the in fisticuffs...however goading them into penalties would be a good plan...I hope to see Emelin and Subban knock some leafs into next week!!!
I don't like that we're going against the Leafs without a heavyweight. The last game Colton Orr attacked the captain and then threw Bourque on his ass (I bet you that's where the concussion comes from!). Our grinders will have their hands full.
Hopefully Ryder got off to Toronto well before the snow storm hit. If he's not already in town then he probably won't play tomorrow. Habs might have to go with 7 D.
Toronto's fans have become the nerdy kids sticking out their tongues while hiding behind the class gorilla. Lots of brave-sounding words on their board about Orr and beating and fighting. Sad that they've become so desperate for an identity that they embrace the dumbest common denominator.

He would have been in Columbus probably could have gotten here (I live in Toronto) pretty quick I think.

Orr is a plug who's barely NHL caliber. If Toronto wants to win, he'll get very few minutes and try not to be an idiot. The fact that Toronto fans have turned this guy into a fetish is creepy.

I think he's played in the previous two games that they have won. He's currently on the third line so will get decent ice time. Maybe Prust or White or Max Pacth will have a look. Orr won't shy away, should be fun.
The only revenge in Habs' mind is winning the game. They don't have the muscle to play goons. But if it really escalates into goonery, Habs would be smart to go after skilled players (Kadri, Grabs, Kessel), not the Leaf fans' pride and joy, Colton Orr. And Habs' own skilled players should be ready to defend themselves.
