For the first game at the "Bell Centre."
According to RDS.
Said it before, and I'll say it again, I think Markov is on his way out. If its not back to the Citadelles soon, it will be in a trade.

As long as they move him in a package, for someone who is young enough to be here after the eventual purging of Quintal, Gilmour, Juneau and others. I want someone like Matt Bradley from San Jose. I don't want no more creaky guys who wear orthopaedic performance briefs.
As for Asham, I'd much rather see him in the line-up against the Sens than Ribeiro. Ribeiro is not in a slump. Ribeiro can't compete when the going gets tough and the red zone starts to shrink, and everyone's taking NJ's lead and tightening up. At least Asham can bump and create some chances off the forecheck. I'd play him on the third with Juneau and Kilger. In any event, there's no point having him here if it's to play once every four or five games.
By the way, I HATE our second line. Hate it. Rbeiro, Perreault and Berezin? Ugh.

So we get another serving of Patrick Traverse? ugh.  Yes,let's trade Markov.Deal him to Boston where he will run their PP and feed Big Joe,Sammy,Guerin,Murray and Rolston.Or deal him to Pittsburgh where he can feed Mario,Kovalev and Straka.Deal him to a team we face 4-5 times a year,so the Habs management(especially Therrien) can see what this kid can do... IF we deal him,WE BETTER get a talented young player who will be here for a long time.And not another soft forward! How about Milan Kraft for Markov? |

JV,Bradley is more of a grinder type player.I doubt SJ really needs Markov with Stuart and Jillson around.So forget about him. |

It's official.Markov sitting &*()?(*&?%(*&%* Traverse.IF there is one thing I will never forgive AS for,it's acquiring that stiff.Other teams got good young d-man for a soon to be UFA(O'Donnell for Mitchell and Gusarov for Smrek) last year,and we get a player who hasn't done anything and won't do anything for the rest of his career.Heck,we would have been better just picking up a draft pick with AS's drafting wiz. |

Frankly at this point I don't care what way Therrien choses (well maybe I do), I just wish he sticks to it. Down the stretch we need to identify a strarting lineup and go with it so the players get used to each other. The constant lineup shuffling has to come to an end.

Brisebois. I'd rather see Haley Wickenheiser on defense than Breezeby. She is smarter (makes better decisions), skates faster, has more heart and hits harder.

Breezer is not the problem.He was last year,he isn't anymore.The midgets and the big stiff are the problems on the blueline. |

The lineup isn't Therrien alone, Savard has major input, if he's scratching Markov, it's because he doesn't see him in the team's long-term plans. Savard might cost us a playoff spot if he insists on justifying his acquisition of Traverse by playing him night after night. Especially against a fast, skilled team liked the Sens.... no need for a big softie like Traverse. This is not gonna turn out for the best for the Habs... |

I just hope they realise you CAN'T have Bouillon,Robidas and Traverse on the same team!!! let alone having them play in the same game(like against the Wings). |
