I too am absolutely shocked, but its the right call.

Habs can now focus on winning the series as retribution has been paid with the proper suspension.

Mind you, if this does go at least 6, they may do something at the end of the game.

Back to the action. Weber sternly told media to stop talking about the hit so that's what we'll do. :lol:

Lehkonen back in and goes on the Danault-Gallagher. What an absolute defensive juggernaut that is. If they could take down Matthews, what hope is there for Dubois (who looks fat and lazy) or Stastny.

That being said, I do think Stastny will burn the Habs early and often. Just a matter of keeping the offence going.

Gus and Kulak remain the third pairing, which is insane.

Why are they not going with Romanov, who they used for basically the whole season?

Am I missing something?

The reasoning I've heard is they don't want Romanov on the right side, and Kulak can't play right side, so the only options are Gus and Ouellet.

Didn't Romanov start the season on the right side, or has my memory gone to shit?

It should have been pretty easy to give Scheifele the series, i.e. 3 to 6 games, but I guess he's a "good guy", although Laine might disagree.

Yeah, Romanov started as RD, but I don't think he played much RD by the end of the season

I totally forgot about that Scheifele/Wheeler bullied Laine out of Winnipeg story that made the rounds in Finnish media until someone pointed it out to me.

When I heard Scheifele talk about bullying - I smiled and thought "Look in the mirror buddy". FYI - saying shit to one's family is way the fuck off base.

I like Kulak as the third pairing, but wouldn't be better with Romanov in playing than Kulak at LD?

Gus was pretty good tonight! Habs play an immaculate defensive game to steal two in Winnipeg.

Not surprised Dubois isn't showing up, since he didn't most of the season. Ehlers, on the other hand, must not be 100 per cent because the Habs are never able to contain him.

Dominic Moore, who scored the series winner vs Washington in 2010, said when a team comes back down 3-1, they basically feel invincible. That's what's happening here. Habs haven't trailed since losing Game 4 vs TO.

One away. I hope Scheifele knows he cost his team the series.

So who needs to get hurt or suspended in the next round for them to win?

Maybe a hole in the ice can swallow McKinnon, Rantanen, Landeskog, Makar and Grubbauer at the same time.

Jets were a bunch of cheap shot dirtbags midway through the third. Tucker Poolman gave up the puck to go out of his way to take a run at Suzuki. Dubois did a dumb cross check, Copp and Forbort tackled guys. When the going got tough, they folded. Sweep the jerks.

Seriously? The Habs looking to sweep and up in game 4! Gustaffson! I like that guy.

For a guy that owns a F**k the Habs shirt I do like their run! Let the Ghosts play!
