GDT: GAME 36: HABS @ FLA | Lemonade | Thursday, Dec. 29th, 2022, 7PM -- TSN2, RDS, TSN690, 98.5 FM

Amria should be in the press box. he sucks bad

 

[the]

Please just don't go to OT. I think a Habs win would be more beneficial since the Panthers still have a chance to go on a run.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

We're playing like shit. I don't see how we win unless Montembeault goes super saiyan.

We'll see if Gallagher gets in tonight. He was game time decision last night.

Can we please play Barron on the point on PP! How f***ing hard is it to play a kid who has an offensive game on the PP?

If you want him to earn it, then put Guhle/Xhekaj there!!

Gallagher net front (if he plays)/ Dvo if he doesn't
Caufield - Hoffman - Suzuki (Hoffman bumper)
Guhle

Anderson
Dach - Dvorak - Slafkovsky
Barron

Dvorak has a decent shot. He can play bumper for now. If Gallagher can't play, I guess Slafkovsky in 2nd unit bumper, Drouin along the wall.

 

[BigHabs]

I put yes, just to push the Panthers down further. As I expect them to win more than the Habs down the stretch.

So it's just an extra loss could help the Habs with that pick from the Panthers.

I expect the Habs to continue to struggle but this is a game to win to help themselves in the long run. Just no OT points for both teams.

 

[Galaxydoggystyle]

All I want is the game end in regulation and Suzuki racks up some points.

 

[Simarino]

For one of the few times this season.

GO HABS GO!!!

We need to cheer for the Panthers no? Habs got a real shot at a bottom 5 finish and the difference between 3 and 4 or 4-5 means alot more than 11 and 12 or the 1 spot difference in that range, where Florida should finish?

 

[Naslundforever]

Bedard is only 17, let that sync in.


I’ll have a better idea who will potentially have a good game by how sunburnt some of them show up.

 

[Grand Admiral Thrawn]

Un match de -4 points à soir!

I’m on the let’s win this in a regulation blowout team, the only bad scenario is OT (or Guhle gets hurt). Beat them so bad they become sellers and sink.

 

[CapSpace]

Can both teams lose?

That’s what I think. Only the Habs own pick has a chance of being bottom 3, gotta get every loss we can to get there…

 

[cphabs]

Lo and behold, one of the Habs' staunchest supporters posted this in yesterday's GDT ...




We've also seen @dinodebino post ominous comments about the current state of affairs.

Never thought I'd be so supportive of a stunt pulled by a Florida Man. And yet, it happened.

Now, we just need our guy to make it work.

At least for tonight's game, we have our anthem covered.

It's going to get worse before it gets better but if we're patient, it will get better.


LINEUPS TBA

We love you Tyson!

My reasoning is that I predict the Habs will continue to be bad.. so a win here doesn't really hurt anything long term.. while a loss to Florida, a much better team, is 2 points they can't get and increases our odds of having two lottery picks vs. the 1.

 

[schwang26]

A 7 point night from Bedard should tell you where I stand regarding this season

How blinded are we by Bedard? Like would #3 and #8 not be worth as mush as #2 and #9, etc if the talent falloff was evenly distributed?

From the little I’ve seen I’d trade #2 and #3 for #1 right now (if I had #2 and #3) which is skewed by a generational talent in the mix (which the odds of drafting are slim to none anyway).

no one will give up #1 pick if is Bedard

I agree, in my scenario I have #2 and #3, I just noticed it’s not clear. I guess what I am inquiring is whether I should be fine with a hab win, or whether one of the picks being as low as possible is really a better “want” - factoring the super low chance of winning the lottery

 

[holy]

2-1 win in regulation please.

 

[Sterling Archer]

Rare time for the tank when winning is the best outcome!

 

[Nicko999]

Finally we can cheer for a win.
It would not be catastrophic if Panthers won.
Just no OT!

 

[jrom]

Chances Gally is back tonight



Barkov, Ekblad & Gurkhas are probably back (guess it evens out things )

 

[AlexGretzchenvid]

This is a must win game.

Puts us 1 point ahead and them 2 points behind.

Go Habs go

 

[Aces on the road]

Amria should be in the press box. he sucks bad

Less than 90 % of players

 

[CHfan1]

They need to put Suzuki back on the right side on the power play. No idea why they took him off that position.

 

[Kennedys]

We need this one. Go Habs !
