Despres reassigned. Looks like Letang is back tonight.

Despres down, guess Letang is in?

I think MAF does let in too many soft goals, however you would have to be a little shell shocked with the quality of chances he faces every game.

His best statistical year was under MT so it is no surprise that Price looks better again this year than he has before. I still say King Henrik in NY would struggle to be as good as he is statistically if he played for the Pens. No goalie wants to play in that mad house of a system, well no one but MAF, he seems to enjoy the craziness of it.

It took Vokoun to spray the team with the way they were playing before knuckling down and playing like have for the 2nd half of this run.

That is where I was getting at what happens if the two goalies would switch. Montreal is a more defensive oriented team than Pittsburgh. Marty B. wouldn't have had the success he has had if he were on the Penguins. Not saying the system made him, but it certainly helped him. It's easy being the goalie for NJ to me over the goalie in Pittsburgh. The system, even during Mario's days, is wide open and the opposition will get numerous scoring chances. MAF's stats and save percentage numbers are overrated in that regard. A goalie in Pittsburgh is bound to have a higher goals against average and a lower save percentage than the goalie in NJ, or Boston, or Nashville.

nope, the sock monkey is starting tonight!

Kris Letang has been activated from IR.

Man...you are the quickest person on this site to get defensive whenever people are having a good time. Of course he is, he's been a healthy scratch.

That was not my intent, sorry Just was expressing my thoughts about two guys that used to be good. The age factor has come.

Is Price better than MAF?

Habs fans seem to think so.

In a word yes

Letang must be in tonight. Good news there.

I'd say at least 90% of the GMs would take him over Fleury. But we know the value of Fleury.

12 in a row

Obviously fleury is a very good goalie but I feel like the ones you get on price you really earn where as fleury is prone to give the other team a few

- Orpik44

It's alright. All players decline with age. Briere, Knuble, Fedotenko, Orpik...all of them.
Seriously though, I'm looking forward to the Pens/Bruins ECF this year. I'll actually be pulling for the Penguins, unless the Bruins get Iginla. Then I'll be torn.

Au revoir. Upon Geno's return (if before the deadline), the next move is Bennett to WBS.

We'll see them back next week though.

He has his haters among Habs fans. Some of them are expecting him to be the next Roy, they need to realize that's likely not going to happen.

They need to take a look at what's going on in Tampa and stop whining.

Sorry to barge in here, I just thought I could add my point of view.
