GDT: Mont Royal Habitants at Ottawa Senators - 7PM - TSN Cinq/RDS -Tradewinds along the St. Lawrence Edition

Best part of tonight's game was waving goodbye to all the Habs fans leaving with 9 mins left in the 3rd

This was pretty funny to see at the arena

My kid having the time of her life at the game tonight she's also absolutely obsessed with Sparty. Overall great vibes!

Someone asked Brady postgame if he thought Timmy could win a fight against Gallagher and he said "I'm not gonna fall for that setup but I do have confidence in Timmy".

That’s hilarious. Just shows how dumb that was. He really didn’t want to engage with MacEwen or Kastelic. I wonder why?

And chanting “ole ole ole” lmao. That’s always bugged me, it’s Spanish not French. I’m also all for brining back the “Pageau Pageau Pageau” chants to the ole tune

Look Jacques all I'm saying is that you may have won a ring earlier if you didn't keep Spezza on the bench so much in the 2003 playoffs.

 

[Ice-Tray]

Really enjoyed that game, top to bottom.

 

[DrEasy]

Alpha move right there. Jacques 2.0 has more ballz.

Beating Montreal never gets old. Always fun reading their annoying fanbase.

Gallagher is a f***ing clown. Flops for 10 years, calls out someone for diving then dives against that team again. Such a punchable face

 

[chipsens]

Habs goalie was very leaky. I suspect we don't see Primeau again on Tues rematch.

Play our same lineup imo.

Gallagher doesn’t know that the game has passed him by and he’s a glorified pylon / benchwarmer at this point.

Even if they win all their games in hand, they'd be 9th in the wild card race, at best.

You should post the race for the first pick instead.

Thanks, Deb!

Such a flex to a group that's having trouble listening. Great game tonight though, looks like they're finally buying in

So far, the comments from the coach and the players hasn't really indicated they were having trouble listening, I think alot of people are equating player's inability to show drastic changes in habits built up over multiple years with not wanting to listen. It takes time to change behaviours that have become instinctual, and the usual means to do so is through drills in practice, but especially early on we didn't have a lot of practice time with the compressed schedule.

What I do see is a team that had looked deflated, another season down the drain. These are players that need to be reminded of what the ultimate goal is and how it doesn't happen overnight. They need to see the big picture and how their efforts today contribute to where they want to be in the future. Jacques highlighted that by saying it took him 30 yrs, so while this season may be over, there's still a lot of progress that can be made through hard work now to help them achieve that long term goal.

It seems like the team is trending in the right direction based on the last handful of games. There are some signs that the team D aspect of the game is starting to develop. Senators limited the amount of shots and their coverage, gaps and back checking seem improved.

Their bottom lines have been playing well. I think Chartier had his best game of the year. Stutzle is looking like he has mojo back & it was nice to see him get a goal & end his drought.

It will be interesting to see if they can develop some consistency and start stringing wins together. Too little too late unfortunately and that will lower the draft pick, but getting on the right track will be welcomed and is a necessary step in the process.

Ya Baby!!!!!

Nice win
Time to enjoy because the next seven games are going to be toughhhhhh lol

How will we tell the difference between a team playing better and a team playing with no pressure to win games because the season is over?

Next year if they start 2-8 or 8-2.

Django. Then to get us really steamed up I put on the Sens vs Montréal highlights.

That may be the case now, and I agree with what you said, but G initially having to tell the young guys that it doesn't matter if they don't like the system and need to buy in regardless is telling that there were some growing pains and the young superstars needed help listening.

You need to set a better example as a mod. You're going to have so many horny people in here now.
