Laraque to play
Georges Laraque will make his 2008-09 debut tonight. The Montreal heavyweight will skate on the fourth line, taking the place of Steve Begin.
"I think he's ready to get in," said Guy Carbonneau. "He skated well the last four days. The doctors cleared him. He's 100 percent."
Tonight's expected lineup:
Andrei Kostitsyn | Tomas Plekanec | Alex Kovalev |
Alex Tanguay | Saku Koivu | Guillaume Latendresse |
Tom Kostopoulos | Robert Lang | Sergei Kostitsyn |
Georges Laraque | Maxim Lapierre | Mathieu Dandenault |
Andrei Markov | Mike Komisarek |
Roman Hamrlik | Ryan O'Byrne |
Josh Gorges | Patrice Brisebois |
Carey Price |
Jaroslav Halak |

Well, tonight will be interesting. With Laraque in the lineup, it certainly got even more interesting. I just hope that Chara Wont fight him. They loose Laraque for 5 minutes, its not a big deal but we loose Chara for 5, it's really dangerous. Can't wait for tonight, it will be explosive! It's only the first game between the 2 and I already have butterflies. Go B's Go!! Just play hard, make them pay, you can do it!
I bet Milan Lucic steps up tonight and unloads some of his frustration on Laraque. If they skate on the same line, maybe Wheeler gets his knocks in as well. This is message game; the Bruins will want to let the Canadians know that it will be a rugged, if not painful journey through the Adams Division this season. In-between bouts I expect to see some solid play y the forwards, a technically sound game by the defense, and here's hoping that Tim Thomas stands on his head as he catches the rubber biscuit between his teeth. I have a good feeling about this one even though the Canadians are having a grand celebration before the game; this will be a contest where all of the "my marriage is great guys" will be saying "I told you so."
He'll be going for Thornton after what he did to his buddy in the pre-season. I think Sean will be ready though.
Almost guarantee's some extra fireworks tonight! Awesome!
wheeler vs laraque would be a disaster.thornton will have to fight him and that could be a mismatch
