Well Nashville rolls into town on Thursday night to do battle with the Habs. The Habs are coming off a hard fought game with the B's on Tuesday which ended in a 1-1 tie. Nashville is coming off a 2-1 OT loss to the Canucks as well on Tuesday.

The Habs are playing some good hockey lately with only 3 losses in their last 12 games. Theodore is sporting a save% around .950 in his last eight starts and is playing about as good as any goalie right now. He may get the night off in favor of Garon so that he can rest up for the big game at the ACC on Sat.

Should be a tight checking game probably won't be one to remember but I believe that Habs can win this one. My prediction is 3-1

Edit: Just thougt I would throw this in...what a save by Theo, HIGHLIGHT OF THE NIGHT on Tuesday.

Nashville couldn't cut it even when Vancouver was playing like crap. Montreal wins 2-0

Theo gets the nod tonight...also Tootoo is going to play tonight. This is his first regular season game in Canada.

Perrault is out of the lineup with a slight groin pull...which means Dagenais is back in the lineup.

WOW...great hockey game! Back and forth with lots of goals!! Habs take it 5-4 in OT!!! Souray with the hat-trick and game winner in OT. Ribeiro with 4 assists. Habs score 4 PP goals. Koivu had a goal and an assist. Big win!

One bad note though.. Theo left the game after the first period with an apparent collarbone injury...more details to follow!

Theo spoke with the media at the Bell Centre after the game and he said that its only a bruise...his status is still up in the air for Sat. game in TO.
