I didn't see the game and just saw the replay. I didn't think Kreider deliberately injured the way the media and Canadien fans are making it to be. He was in full speed being chased by 2 guys. He tried to score but missed and at the same time lost control and his skate hit Carey Price.
I can't stand these guys on TSN making it looks like Therrien doesn't trust Budaj that's why Tokarski is starting tonight. Even giving this BS about Budaj being player's favorite. Game 1 was awful for the Habs and I think Therrien is just playing mind games with the rest of the team. He's probably thinking if he starts a rookie in goal, Habs might play with caution defensively. Besides historically Habs won Stanley Cup with a couple of rookie goaltender in Dryden and Patrick Roy. Another thing was Tokarski played some big games in the past Memorial Cup(did not win the game but he was the MVP), World Junior and Calder Cup. I know it is not the Stanley Cup but if he steal this game for the Habs tonight, that will give the team a boost.
