not sure. but Tinordi has size (not quite the size/physical dimension that Murray brings at this stage). but he can skate and keep up with the play. and IMO, it's not our defence that's having the problem with the B's physicality, it's our forwards. they are getting rocked on every dump in.

D are taking some hits too; if it doesn't create a significant drop off, it would make sense to cycle in some healthy bodies so that the same 6 guys aren't getting pounded with 50+ hits every game.

It IS Championship weekend.

Sandals Royal Bahamian for 4 days then Memories Grand Bahama Beach and Casino Resort for 4. Been to Atlantis before and didn't really care for it.

Sounds good.

Bring me back something nice.

It IS Championship weekend.

Outside of my daughters soccer I don't watch the game at all.

It IS Championship weekend.

The allure of that sport (frank)ing baffles me. Spending an hour and a half jogging around a meadow kicking a tiny ball and a massive goal, with no reasonable expectation that either side will ever score doesn't really sound exciting.

Beaulieu / Tinordi should be getting experience ffs.
- BingoLady

Not at this point...Tinordi hasn't played a game in the last 5 weeks

I think they'll both get a spot at the beginning of next season...unless they have a horrible training camp.

some yes but less than i expected. i think it's because the Bruins are carrying it in and not dumping it in. i wonder if Montreal is giving up the blueline sometimes to avoid the constant pounding?

one thing about this 3-day break though is that it certainly benefits Montreal, especially Price. those must have been 2 exhausting games for him, so the extra day, plus the extra 7 hours on Sat, should keep him fresh for tomorrow.

That's what killed them in the 3rd last game

He's going to need it. Unless Montreal has a 5-goal lead going into the 3rd, they're going to be in tough.

what would that be? the severed finger of a dead hooker?

I can understand that. I enjoy watching my kids play it, and I will watch an EPL game here and there with Brayden. MLS is something I do find painful though.

U don't enjoy QP's long cat MLS posts?

And it's also not a finger.

I agree.

I'll watch if the impact is good..

No.
It will be a shower gift of some sort, hard to buy for a man who has everything.

MLS is crap soccer. i mean, there are Canadians in the league. we love hockey but does anyone wanna watch an ECHL game on TV? World Cup coming up though. should be exciting.

I will watch WC with the kids. Brayden just called and asked me to remind him how to get Messi's team on his FIFA game on the iPad. God bless the boy.
