New layout, Panthers mini-preview

In celebration of our one year anniversary, I decided to spruce things up a bit here at HIHW. It was definitely time for it!

Meanwhile, the version of the Habs affectionately known as Team B won again tonight at the Bell Centre, a 4-3 win at the expense of the Minnesota Wild and a familiar face we all know to love, hate, and can't help but want to feed (now that he's gone, anyway). The line of Dustin Boyd, Ryan White and (inner celebration) Max Pacioretty was the best for the Canadiens as Andreas Engqvist and Brendon Nash were two others who got on the board.

Tomorrow the action FINALLY returns to proper television. My crush on Felix Seguin is well-documented but this "on the fly" business over at RIS has been more painful than useful in terms of keeping up with our boys.

Opponent: Florida Panthers
Just in time for the game, panthers.nhl.com has a reader on Chris Higgins. The ex-Hab did not play in yesterday's game against the Bruins.

The Panthers, meanwhile, have recorded wins in all three preseason contests disputed thus far. Youngsters Erik Gudbranson (drafted third overall this year) and Keaton Ellerby have played important roles and will be featured in their fourth straight game tomorrow, and Florida is also expected to play Tomas Vokoun along with notables Stephen Weiss, Radek Dvorak, David Booth, Dennis Wideman, Bryan McCabe and Bryan Allen.

And hopefully Dmitry Kulikov. Just sayin'.

A variation of Team A that, according to Renaud Lavoie, doesn't include Louis Leblanc or Jarred Tinordi (gasp!) will be on hand for the Habs. It all gets underway at 7:30. Cue the remotes (finally!)
