GDT: Flames at Habs: wherein the hockey gods make it up to us (5:30pm on SNW)

[Lunatik]

It was definitely the most likely. I was just hoping that GG might take the opportunity to shake the lineup a bit.

Eh, I don't think it needs to be. We've been pretty unlucky recently. As long as lines are getting chances (and they all are), I'm not worried about a shake-up

@Lazar Beams In regards to your post about Tkachuk getting a minor if he was on the ice. Any spear is 5 and a game, regardless of how soft it is.

Whatever - it was not penalty worthy if they were on the ice. (maybe a double minor because I'm not convinced he even made contact)

again not an option, any spear is 5 and a game

 

[Ace Rimmer]

An attempted spear is only a double minor.

An attempted spear is only a double minor.

sounds like an attempt to injury and a match penalty to me

Isnt.

62.2 Double-minor Penalty - A double-minor penalty will be imposed on a player who spears an opponent and does not make contact

And actually, a spearing penalty isn't automatically a match penalty, only if the speared player is injured.

 

[Bounces R Way]

Gonna need the depth to step up here. Sam Bennett I'm looking at you. I'd take a multi point game from Gaudreau too.

Keep it simple for your backup, no bad giveaways

 

[OvermanKingGainer]

Gotta get things going. This team should be in a divisional spot with what they're capable of. We've seen it far too intermittently and when we have they haven't gotten the bounces.

 

[Mobiandi]

We lost to the Wings 8-2. They beat the Wings 10-1. Incoming 40-1 loss.

But honestly, if we play like we did against the Leafs we should win

 

[Mitts]

Please, destroy the Habs.

 

[BigRangy]

Why can’t the Flames just play with 11 forwards

Brouwer is worse than no-one at all

 

[Baxterman]

Rittich and no Jagr/Tkachuk doesn't seem like a recipe for success but it is Montreal so it shouldn't be much of a fight other than Price.

 

[MonaHan Solo]

Money!

 

[Mitts]

1 Zip Boys.

 

[OvermanKingGainer]

Moneyhands! Price looked amateur on that rebound.

 

[MDCSL]

Sick goal, I love it

 

[Mobiandi]

Monahan!!

That was great hustle by him but lol Price

 

[Baxterman]

Monahan!

 

[Tofveve]

Mony!

 

[MonaHan Solo]

Rittich hello?

 

[Mobiandi]

Is that a neon Bart Simpson on Rittich's mask?

Oh come on

 

[Tkachuk Norris]

That was a really nice goal.

 

[Mitts]

That was a smart goal by Carr, sadly.

 

[Tofveve]

Boo.

 

[Mobiandi]

Another goal within 3 mins of scoring. Like clockwork
