Sorry guys I don't have a warm/fuzzy about this one. I understand the Leafs are missing three key players, but every time they play us it seems we have nobody who can stand up to Corson, Tucker, or Roberts. These guys dictate the game by themselves when they play Montreal.
Or is it that we just don't show up against the Leafs any longer. It's frustrating to say the least. I'd imagine it's frustrating on Therrien, et al as well.
Anyway, I'll keep the faith. We need all hands on deck just to compete with these guys. The old, "... oh, look ... José stopped another one for us ..." won't work tonight.
Cheers.

Well, on a positive note, we have tied them twice already this year, and both times they had Curtis Joseph in net, so who knows?
They should be ripe for the picking, but I have long since given up trying to figure out which Montreal Canadiens team will show up.
If we get 25+ shots on Schwab or Centomo, we should win. Don't know if we will get 25+ shots though.

That's a good question for a pool. How many shots will the Habs get tonight? 10, 12? Predictions....I'll go out on a limb and say we get outshot (Ha!) Boils down to...if Jose plays Houdini, we tie. If he's average, we lose by 3.

I'm a tad worried as well, dis. The Leafs are coming off that 6-2 pasting by Detroit and I think they'll come out firing tonight. Theo better be ready (he's looked shaky lately) cause this is one of those games Sundin looks to get his points in. I'm also hoping Schwab gets the start as we've all seen a French Canadian kid come back and do well in the forum or Molson Centre. If Quinn doesn't start Centomo it just shows how clueless he is because this game is set up perfectly for Centomo to shine. I can see it now. We get a whopping 4 shots on goal in the 1st period while the kid just gets more and more confidence. All that being said, I'll bite... Quinn starts Schwab Habs 4 Leafs 2

True, just look at how Luongo did earlier in the year against us to confirm your theory, but it's not like Centomo is a blue chip prospect.His potential in the NHL is probably a backup, nothing more.
Prediction? holy cow, predicting this Habs team is impossible to do...so I'll say 3-2 Leafs.
