Game Notes

TOR
?Andersen (11-6-0, 3.04 GAA, .909 Sv%) will likely start for the Leafs
?Matthews Watch: Auston is getting better and skated in his regular spot between Hyman and Nylander at practice on Friday. We won't know if he's actually playing though until after the morning skate

MTL
?Charlie Lindgren (3-2-1, 2.00 GAA, .938 Sv%) will likely start for the Habs
?Lindgren was an undrafted NCAA free agent signing by Montreal last year and took over the net after Price and Montoya both went down with injuries. He had a very good start to the season but most recently allowed 5 goals to Arizona in a 5-4 loss that Claude Julien called "unacceptable, embarrassing"
?Montreal seems to have been hit with the flu bug: Pacioretty, Drouin, Benn, and Mitchell are all questionable because of it
?The Canadiens find themselves in the bottom-6 in the league in Pts%, GF/GP, GA/GP, PP%, and PK%
Injuries

?Nathan Horton - Back - Out indefinitely ?Joffrey Lupul - Actually Injured - Out indefinitely ?Auston Matthews - Upper BOdy - Questionable Saturday​

?Max Pacioretty - Flu - Questionable Saturday ?Jonathan Drouin - Flu - Questionable Saturday ?Jordie Benn - Flu - Questionable Saturday ?Torrey Mitchell - Flu - Questionable Saturday ?Artturi Lehkonen - Lower Body - Injured Reserve ?Al Montoya - Concussion - Injured Reserve ?Carey Price - Lower Body - Injured Reserve ?Nikita Scherbak - Knee - Injured Reserve ?Ales Hemsky - Concussion - Injured Reserve ?David Schlemko - Hand - Injured Reserve​

First of all, who doesn't love a goalie named WOLL or as I'm sure he'll be called, WALL if he makes the bigs.

Essentially at the quarter mark of the season. 

13-7-0 with 12 ROW and 26 points

Last year the Leafs were 8-8-4 with 8 ROW and 20 points.

Habs are sure to come out flying after that loss to the Coyotes. Here's hoping for 6 in a row.

GO LEAFS GO!

Is Montreal seriously having an award ceremony for Dave Keon in Montreal?  Why is this happening?

Because he grew up in Noranda and him and his bro are legends there.

Seeing Dave Keon happily representing the Leafs again makes me feel real good.

You mean real gud.

Andersen sharp so far.

 

[azzurri63]

Nothing I hate more than watching someone skate by an opposition player and not take the body. Take the guy out. Team has no toughness whatsoever. Another superb start.

We know 

 

[ZBBM]

It's nice that we have a goalie who can make a play with the puck finally.  That outlet to Marner was a beaut.

I understand the game is in Mtl but what's with the slow starts? Seems like a common occurrence. Finally creating some chances.
