Pretenders. Carey Price still this team. Schedule hasn't been that rough on them yet early in season. Lets see how the fare against bruising team like St Louis.

4 away games in a row to start the season. What do you consider a 'rough' schedule?

No, he's not. And he has nothing to prove for it either.

It's definitely not Quick. The guys been garbage for 3 years now, and he's started off this year terribly too.

Pull the trigger? You make it sound like it's been lined up in years past.

If you want a legitimate #1 centre, Patches, PK, or Price are leaving.

They're finally playing like a well puttogether team, and you're here finding holes that don't exist right now. Who knows what will happen down the line, but (frank) enjoy the fact that they're playing better than they have in like a decade while it happens.

Relax lol. A question was asked and I answered. It's too early to tell, but looking at other rosters who have won cups lately, they'll need more help up front.

3-0 against the Blues, 36 shots on Allen. That is what the Habs are now.

But I gotta say, Carey saved it in the first period. Big time...

3-0 Habs against the Blues ... 1st in scoring, 1st in goals against and 1st in the standings.

If the Habs are not contenders then I don't see many other teams being contenders either.

Granted it's a small sample (7 games) but they have improved the blue line and our forward lines are much better balanced this year. Looks very good so far.
