We know it's going to happen... neither DD or Bergevin have the stones to be involved in any sort of controversy. CC sitting at all is complete BS and inexcusable. He's been solid defensively and putting up more points than half of the veterans on this team. What the (frank) has Armia done that he would deserve a spot over him? Byron and Lehkonen have been good lately, but still not as good as CC. Staal, I can't even get started without making myself (frank)ing furious.

to be fair not playing CC would definitely cause some sort of controversy in MTL

yeah I guess that's a sound strategy if the team you root for loses more games than anything lol

The Sens were pretty good back then but either way, normally betting has either a spread or betting odds or whatever so if a team is decent or not doesn't tend to matter as much

As it should. I'm not pleased by the idea of Kotkaniemi not playing but let's be real, Caufield has one less goal on the season. Caufield has more goals than Evans, Drouin (I know, column to the right) and twice as many as Staal has in less than half the games for the Habs. Caufield plays

Hains: Unrealistic Goal or Growth?

With less than a week to go before the start of the playoffs, Dominique Ducharme finds himself with a line-up dilemma.

Both Staal and Perry are going to get game 1 for sure, just gonna have to live with it.


No sense being upset about it, if you know it's gonna happen..

I doubt that'll stop Bergevin from "keeping his word" or playing vets and dressing a very sub optimal lineup. It's no wonder this team can't win anything, ignoring all of the other silly restrictions, this team can't even dress its best lineup without worrying about hurting someone's feelings.

I know it's a good way to make a game you don't give a (frank) about interesting. Better if you can do so responsibly and not like a degenerate...

That's entirely too healthy

I pretty much do similar. I don't care much about Jags vs Panthers but a couple bucks makes it a little more captivating

So you think there are better odds that Staal somehow finds an extra gear in the playoffs than KK returning to his best self after a week off?

It's how I get my gf to be willing to watch sports. Pick a colour between Yellow and Blue. Ok you've got the Steelers and I've got the Titans. We'll put $5 on it, she'll become fully invested and I get to watch my 3rd football game that Sunday without getting nagged

It's funny how $5 can make somebody get right into it. She'll chirp the poop out of whatever team I've got like she thinks I care for the random team and I'll be personally offended. It's awesome.

And yes, she'll cheer for the Habs if she watches but since that's rare she normally chirps them mercilessly
