This is a critical 4 point game which we must lose. We are finishing 5th, 6th, or 7th worst. For all the pain this season, we must get 5th. Double shift Drouin if you have to  |

Good chance we're officially eliminated tonight, as the 2nd WC team (Penguins) has 82 pts.--our max. with 8 games remaining.
Only a Pens' regulation L (vs. Detroit) and a W for us in Philly prolongs the inevitable.

I guess Dach is out again. He did go through concussion protocol late in OT last night.

Bettman: the lottery system is working. Teams don’t tank.
Hughes and Briere: hold my beers!

For sure, the injury lists for the Habs and Flyers are just crazy. Credit to St. Louis and Tortorella for helping their guys believe in themselves, neither team has rolled over many times this season.
The NHL Network said Allen is not even dressed tonight? And apparently Farrell is centering Gallagher and Ylonen. I guess if Dach is being held out, then Drouin is the 2C tonight.
If Philadelphia pockets two points in this one, I feel confident Montreal will not overtake them. Arizona is, of course, a different story. They are coming off a brutal five games (Jets, Oilers, Avs, Avs, Oilers) in the seven days stretch. Hopefully now the lighter workload and mixing in some weak opponents will be the remedy for them to start picking up points again.

Going to renew my rant about numbers. I'm a traditionalist. I see in the game sheet that Farrell is wearing 57.
I thought 13 & 15 were available after Paquette & Niku left. I think I saw Bowey in pre season wearing 24 so that's taken but why dont they use up the "hockey" numbers before giving guys these football type jerseys?
Sorry, showing my age I guess.😀

Listening to the Philly feed... these guys can teach the sportsnet clowns things about the Habs... very knowledgeable about an opponent...

I like the TSN feed with Dave Poulin and Mudryk, with Tessa Bonhomme in the studio.

Poor Harvey-Pinard he got absolutely tattooed by the Ristolainen clapper. I hope he is not injured.

Gallagher should buy Laughton a cold pop, poor guy mishandled the puck pathetically onto Gallagher's stick right there in the slot.

Gallagher with goals in 3 straight games in his return. Would love to see him be able to contribute going forward as he obviously isn't going anywhere

Well done..Harris pinches, loses control of the puck, leads to a 2 on 1 and a Philly lead with 2 mins left

The boys battled in a very even game. Primeau validated the confidence placed in him by management/coaches. Gallagher and Harvey-Pinard are feeling it. Suzuki has been incredibly hot but tonight nothing was really clicking. Farrell did not look out of place and showed good instincts without the puck, though with no familiarity with his line mates he understandably seemed to lack chemistry.
