Every time I watch the Habs feed on GameCenter Live they mention Halak and D'Agger...

Price has played admirably so far this season, though. Imagine the uproar if he hadn't.

it's easy to play at a high intensity for 60 minutes when you know you have a week off til the next game. I hope they can continue to play with this energy when they start playing 3 games every 4 days (i.e. now)

My buddy and I were calling him "Tenacious D" last night, due to Pang's overuse of the word "tenacious."

Just wondering if everyone is still giving it up for D'Ags?
Three points in last 14 games. Almost as unnoticeable as Boyes. Is reality hitting him or is he being overused?

To disagree, one doesn't have to be disagreeable.

I'm chalking some of this up to collateral damage for our injuries. Our 2nd line now has to go up against the line that our top line would have gone against, and so forth w/ all other lines. At least I assume that's what happens. Part of it is just playing worse too I would think.

The guy is still skating hard and getting chances. He still has been a bonus for us this season IMO. Anything that he contributes from this point forward is cake to me.

That and Palushaj isn't playing (last I checked). With all our injuries, it's just a blessing having an actual additional NHL player in the roster instead of an AHL call-up.

Overall I still maintain he's been a very welcome addition.

I think he'll start to shine again when he can get a little more help. He has a great shot, but noone to set him up.

He's near the top of the list for the RFA's I hope this for-sale team can hold on to... Great trade looking back.

He'll be back. Even with this recent production, his cost wont be too high.
