If true really like it. I think AK and Farabee have some budding chemistry together. That could make the 3rd line with Grant very strong.
It's not so much chemistry as much as it is they know how to move their feet. JVR is a pylon with a 6 foot radius of skating mobility.

I'm ok with Farabee coming in for JVR to spark the lineup but if not I agree with getting JVR more involved on the PP. Put players in a position to succeed. If Laughton doesn't get going move him to third line take the pressure off try JVR with Hayes. If he doesn't get going then presser...but doesn't hurt to try you can see it doesn't work on the bottom six.

Good start. Rafl has really found a home as a bottom 6 guy. Gonna admit I used to bag on the guy but that’s when they played him as a top 6 guy.

Looking like a more complete team now. Much better execution. And the PP looked a little better even though they did not score, they at least had some chances. Now let's finish syrong. I hope Hart gets the shutout. The kid is amazing to watch.

He's freaking awesome! He has totally been the true workhorse in this series.

Well def a weird identity change for sure with this team, would like to see a little more skating of the puck out of our zone, also would like to see the PP wake up. That will hurt us versus better teams.

I think Montreal played like they were half dead for 90% of this game. Perhaps Carter Hart is finally in their heads, idk, but it really looks like the Habs blew their load in game two and haven't been able to recharge since. Now their tanks are running on empty.

If that is the case, it probably doesn't help them to have game 5 be tomorrow night...Lol

It's tough to grade our play because I don't think we were really challenged at all. Our team defense is solid and our goalie is solid. We haven't needed anything more than that in this series to win three games.

I remember seriously questioning whether the Canadiens could keep up their skating pace from game two and I was right. That was a complete aberration, a one-hit wonder so to speak. I haven't seen that speed again since.

We've certainly earned the 3-1 series lead, however to be outscored 5-6 is a very strange deal, but it's also pretty meaningless right now.

This team played MFing sell out defense and nobody wants to play against that.

Raffl brings more to this team in his pinky than JVR has ever done.

Guys flying all over the ice to block shots!!!!!!

Couts Gee and Thompson crushed it on faceoffs and controlled the play.

Dont care if they are scoring.

We are winning ugly and winning is the key word!

We take one team at a time and the Habs are at hand and going down. Not easily but going down without a PP. Hopefully we go to the next round and all systems go. For this series we are taking their heart.

I love Nak but im pretty sure he was hurt and not a healthy scratch.. He blocked a shot last game which may have held him out, I would think he would play ahead of bunnaman if given a choice ..

Okay cool, I didn't get to see the last game and didn't catch why he was out. Need to put him with Raffl, Laughton make that our third line, Montreal would have to work over time
