Post-Game Talk: Habs Prevail in a Battle of Super Tankers, 4-2 -- Gallagher notches 30th goal

[The Great Weal]

Well then we better win the lottery. The only real centre in the top 10 is wahlstrom. Tkachuk is more a winger from what I read

I don't think Wahlstrom is a C. Next year is absolutely stacked with centers, we need to get one of them.

 

[MaxDummy]

perimeter player with good shot

Whalstrom a perimeter player? Wth.. He's a mix between Monahan, Boeser and Forsberg to me. I could be wrong but I feel this kid will be special.

Lose for Hughes. Yes please!!!

 

[Thebesthockey]

Lose for Hughes. Yes please!!!

actually 2020 1st would be habs jackpot

 

[MaxDummy]

Yup. Draft Whalstrom, draft Hughes the year after

Drouin - Hughes - Whalstrom
Scherbak - Galchenyuk - Gallagher

Won't happen tho

 

[The Great Weal]

Lose for Hughes. Yes please!!!

I'll take the Hughes brothers for sure. Hughes, Suzuki, Lavoie, Turcotte, Dach just off the top of my head are all great centers.

We fought the valiant fight.

We did not go gently into that good night.

We even had posters sacrificing themselves ...









When all is said and done, we shall remember the bravery and selflessness of these brave posters sacrificing themselves for a greater cause.

This team brings out the worst in us. Even our posters become embattled at times like these ...

We shall also remember how this team just can't do anything right. They can't win meaningful games and they can't lose when it matters.

Essentially, we're dealing with this ...

RDS has no choice but to be on it but it does sound absurd. They're pretending we're watching something of importance -- and we all know the Habs' PR Dept. probably approached them about not making negative comments about the team.






This sums it up nicely:



Great, they won another meaningless game.

Discuss!!!

I was wondering so I checked:

Before tonight this is Habs D point scoring.

Valiev 0 in 2 games. OK
Lernout 1 in 12 games. Rookie, no biggie. Not expected to be a scorer anyway. And playing OK.
Juulsen 1 in 17 Games. Again, rookie and not an expected to be an offensive force. Still pretty bad though. Think he will improve.
Schlemko 4 in 34 games. Yup. You read that right. That's like a 12 point pace in 82.
Reilly 6 in 14 games. A bright spot.
Mete 7 in 49 games. A rookie also. But not great. Forgivable though. This year. He needs to work on it.
Alzner 10 in 76 games. For f***'s sake. A defensive guy but really?
Benn 15 in 73 games. See Alzner.
Weber 16 in 26 games. LOL. Second highest D scorer.
Petry 36 in 76 games. Very good year for him.

So f***ing Schlemko Alzner and Benn, veterans that were supposed to be depended on, have combined for 29 points this year. Give schlemko another 6 points if not hurt, that's say 35 points so far from those three this year.

This may be the worst offensive D sqaud I've ever seen in 45 years of watching habs.

Drouin - Hughes - Whalstrom

Although Hughes is fantastic, there are still some REALLY good centers in the top 10. Have to make sure we are there. Also, I'm very confident that we pick Dobson in this draft, screams like a Timmins pick to me.

 

[Zorba]

actually 2020 1st would be habs jackpot

Alexis Lafrenier?? Is that what you mean?

 

[Thebesthockey]

Thebesthockey brought up 2020. Alexis Lafreniere is gonna be a superstar. Kid is a stud at 16

That kid look like stud at 16. Oh my

 

[Thebesthockey]

That kid look like stud at 16. Oh my

and a local Quebec kid

 

[The Great Weal]

Thebesthockey brought up 2020. Alexis Lafreniere is gonna be a superstar. Kid is a stud at 16

Lafreniere is definitely going to be a superstar.

 

[CapSpace]

We will need some awesome photoshop. Fury (The NHL lottery) firing on the Tiger tank (The Habs), the shell bounces on it and (little montage) hit that tanker guy in the face (put the logo of the f***ing Edmonton Oilers instead of the guy's head and pray they don't get the goddamn 1st pick again). Then a tank explodes, and Dahlins rain all over.

 

[MD thaivuN]

At this point, Bouchard is dropping for me. He produces a **** ton of points which is incredibly impressive, but his defensive game won't get him anywhere in the NHL.
.

Bad defensive game is one thing, I'm more worried that he looks foot-slow, meaning he's a questionable athlete which likely translates to lower ceiling.

He is playing so much with the Knights that it could very well be because of that. Although, he definitely has the worst skating from the top guys.

 

[Bloumeister]

So, what'd I miss? Based on the scoresheet and PGT comments so far, am I to understand that Tank Commander Price failed tonight? That the useless win is all Gallagher's fault?

It's a good thing for us that not only is Bergevin a top assessor of ability, but also an expert on D men particularly. We're so lucky.

I don’t want Wahlstrom. I don’t think I can live another center/winger drama

I don’t want Wahlstrom. I don’t think I can live another center/winger drama

Ty Smith is our guy imo if we don't get Dahlin Svechnikov or Zadina
