regular season, allowed three goals on

Montreal Canadiens head coach Michel Therrien isnt giving up on Dustin Tokarski, announcing that the 24-year-old goaltender will get the start again in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Final against the New York Rangers on Thursday. Dwight Howard Jersey . Tokarski, who had played in three games earlier in the regular season, allowed three goals on 30 shots in a 3-1 loss to the Rangers in his playoff debut on Monday.  Therrien also sent a message to Thomas Vanek to pick up his game, rotating the struggling winger on the fourth line at Wednesdays practice with Michael Bournival, Daniel Briere and Brandon Prust at practice. Vanek, who has four goals in the second round against the Boston Bruins, has been held off the scoresheet in Montreals first two games of the Eastern Conference Final. The Canadiens had 41 shots on Henrik Lundqvist in Game 2, with none from Vanek. He had only one shot in their 7-2 loss in Game 1. Therrien told reporters not to read into it as it all could change again ahead of Game 3. "One thing, the (Tomas) Plekanec line needs to give us more," he said. "Im ready to stick sometimes with combinations and with three guys working together as long as I see results. "Sometimes the results are not there but the chances are there. But if I see there are no chances, not much happening, now Im at a point where I have to make some decisions. Hopefully by making some changes, somethings going to happen." Max Pacioretty came to Vaneks defence, noting how difficult it can be to score in the postseason. "In playoffs its even harder," he said. "If you walked into one of (the Rangers) meetings, theyll talk about a guy like Thomas Vanek and they talk about him around the net and having to play physical on him. Being expected to deliver every night, its impossible and youve seen it in these playoffs with numerous stories of different players. "All you can ask now is, if theyre not contributing offensively, is to help out in other areas. Hes a great guy in the room as well. Hes helped me, especially through my slump. Theres other areas you can contribute. Its not just on the scoreboard." With Vanek sliding down to the fourth line, winger Dale Weise moved up to the third line and Brian Gionta was bumped up to the second with Tomas Plekanec and Alex Galchenyuk.

The Canadiens have won three straight and six of their past seven games, pushing them two points ahead of Tampa Bay for second place in the Atlantic Division.Weve seen it a million times. A receiver doesnt make the catch on a passing play and instantly motions to the ref – and everybody else – for a pass interference flag. Sometimes he gets the call, more often he doesnt; but if the CFLs new proposed rule change – making pass interference calls reviewable – is passed, hell at least have a chance to be vindicated for his protestation. The league announced it is considering making pass interference, both called and potential, subject to a coachs challenge, with the potential rule change to be voted on by the Rules Committee Thursday. The rule change would lead to a more accurately called game, but is it worth the trouble? Any fan knows that pass interference is questionable on a large number of passing plays, and at breakneck speeds its not always easy to determine. While a video review would likely lead to the correct call, it would also slow down the pace of the game. Its probable each coach could find at least two passing plays – his allotted number of challenges per gamme – to throw the red flag on per game.Robert Horry Rockets Jersey. And if hes correct in his first two challenges, thats another PI call to contest each game. That time adds up. Making subjective calls reviewable is an issue as well. While fans of the losing team would surely be on board, taking too much power away from the refs is not ideal. Removing a refs judgment and calling pass interference strictly by the book could lead to a lot more infractions, making a defensive backs job even harder. It could open the door to more subjective calls getting the video review treatment as well. If pass interference can be challenged by coaches, why not holding calls, offside calls, or roughing the passer? Thursdays Rules Committee meeting will also see blocking rules reviewed, head shot rules clarified, and changes to scoring rules clarified, but the pass interference proposal is the big one. The Rouge asks: Should the CFL make pass interference subject to video review? Youve heard what weve had to say, now its your turn. As always, its Your! Call. ' ' '
