Game #3 - vs Montreal Canadiens

Montreal Canadiens (1-0-1, 3 pts) at Pittsburgh Penguins (1-1-0, 2 pts)

The Pens play their second home game of the year against the Habs. Our Friends to the North are playing their third straight game on the road to open the season. Aren't the NHL schedules goofy this year? Anyway, the Canadiens have earned three out of four points and look pretty tough.

The biggest question for the Pens is which team will show up? We've seen two distinct teams in the first two games. Hopefully it's the team that beat the Ducks.

Habsblog is reporting that prized goal tending prospect Carey Price will make his NHL debut against the Pens.

Sidney Crosby will play after x-rays showed his foot wasn't broken.

Canadiens blog - Check out the aforementioned Habsblog. They seem to have a bunch of ads on the site, but the information is good.

I'll be at this game, so hopefully I'll have some good pictures to put up in the review.

Let's Go Pens!

Have fun at the game. Is it just me, or is goaltending a question mark to anyone else? I know it's way early yet, but MAF has looked shaky... I don't think anyone expected him to be lifted in the first game...

Enjoy the game! Price will crush you. Or be destroyed by Sid and forever scarred. It's a toss-up

I agree with your concerns teej. I think MAF is going to be fine but he's look a little unsettled so far, especially the first game. If he can keep his rebounds down he should be fine.
