Chris Neil in for game 2. If he goes after Subban will the Habs fans call 9-1-1?

I'm pulling for the Jets, Capitals and the Hawks. Would like to see Kimmo win a cup

1- I'm sure he will find some player along the way to Subban.
2- Fans will be cheering the habs powerplays as everything surrounding Neil and Subban will be closely watched by the refs.
3- Neil hasn't played since forever .... will he still be able to skate with the playoff rythm? He might hurt the Sens more than he could help them.
4- Watch him beeing a non-factor if habs starts to fill the net with powerplay goals.
Like i said... might be a desperate move by the Sens seeing that:
- They lost with a very ordinary Carey Price on habs side
- They lost with a very unusual poor Markov game on habs side
- They lost to a habs team without is main scorer and without is best d for 30 minutes

Sure Markov had a bad game, so did the Sens blue line which was apparent in both the shorthanded goal from Eller as well as Flynn being able to walk right out.
I don't think they plan on giving Neil first line minutes which means he's going to be far from a difference maker, but what Neil has always been good at is playing tough and being intimidating so watch for him to jab and finish his hits and even try to get under prices skin.
I think it's funny how easily habs fans forget about wanting to lynch Kreider last season when he Collided with Price and that was more of a hockey play than this was.

I really don't like the play-by-play guy on CBC. Come on, MTL-OTT and we don't get the A team.

They were right when they told me my wallet was going to be taking a hit on this site.
