GDT: Game 42: PREDS @ HABS Jan 12, 2023 – 7:00PM ET. Honour night for Subban. TSN2, RDS, BSSO

[Runner77]

Arizona did an amazing job of selling this guy as being someone way better than he actually is.

To Habs management but not in here. I seem to recall that most posters felt that there was overpayment and that Dvorak is a 3rd line player at best.

11F, 7D tonight.

Monty gets the start.

Hoff and Pez will be scratched. Barron and Ylonen in.

I think reading between the lines that Mike Hoffman has fallen out of total disfavor with MSL. 3rd scratch in 4 games.

 

[Runner77]

Gotta love that Raw Knuckles podcast that just dropped, featuring Geoff Molson.

It totally emulated what it’s like watching Habs games from home, these days. Mercy buckets, Geoff!

 

[Team_Spirit]

Hoffman forgot to give Marty a nice Christmas present for all that sweet ice time. MSL is having his revenge lmao.

You mean out of favor. Out of disfavor are two negatives. So it's like saying he's fallen into favor.

How would the crowd react if the dressing of 7D was actually cover for signing PK to a 1 game contract so he could be the 7th D and retire a Hab?

 

[habsfan891]

Great gdt @Conflicted Habs fan I'm missing this one hopefully the ceremony is good Subban deserves it

 

[HuGo Sham]

Preds lost to Toronto last night on a terrible highsticking penalty by Jankowski. 4 minute PP with just over 4 minutes left. Leafs score the game winner.

Nashville is close to a playoff spot, so this is a big game for them. I don't expect much from Montreal.

Montembeault will start with Allen out.

Will be interesting to see what they do for Subban.

might dress him to QB the power play?

 

[Colezuki]

Kinda interested to see ylonen, he seems to finally have gained some weight he always looked like a waterbug, but seeing his interview he seems to finally have gained some weight

 

[HuGo Sham]

So looking forward to that pre-game ceremony, it should be poignant.

Montreal fans love a show and a showman and they should have both on this night.

I’m expecting an outpouring of love and emotion from the crowd and for PK to reciprocate.

Welcome back, PK. Here’s hoping they don’t present you with a Koivu-style ceremonial chair

you're going to get a bit verklempt aren't you?


why do people park in a driveway but drive on a parkway? talk amongst yourselves

They are just saving him for a big trade. Don't want any risk of injury.

 

[Rapala]

Thank You @Conflicted Habs fan !

That fourth line is sooo good we only need two players on it.

 

[CAUFIELD]

Prime Subban , Price, Gallagher , Pacioretty

With plekanec for vet 2C and general Markov.

Couldn’t get a **** #1center to help us being a real contender . Kept late 1st round picks like his life depended on it.

With the way Bergevin got rid of Subban, Markov, Danault , and for the 2022 summer fiasco. Bergevin should at least be unemployed for god sake.

What an awful manager . f*** Bergevin

MSL gave him far far more opportunities than he deserved. He went as far as praising his on ice intelligence last season if you recall. There comes a time when the best meaning individuals will lose patience with the lack of a sustainable response. Drouin is in that same boat. Let us see if he can continue with his recent efforts, History tells us no and he will be the next to go.

It's a shame PK couldn't attend functions and raise money for the three years where the children's hospital couldn't host fund-raiser events due to the worldwide pandemic. Maybe those fixated on criticizing his charity's pledge being slightly behind schedule (8-8.5m of 10m raised so far) could help out a bit and donate or volunteer their time.... instead of posting about it? Hmm?

Maybe its just 1 game too soon.

Hoffman could be back in favor as how things work in MTL, players go from scratched to top PP unit from one day to another

Same could be said for those spending so much energy making up excuses for him.

 

[Habs13]

Habs are going to lose to the Preds tonight like they did in the PK trade.

Only becaus e Bergevin couldn't properly address his needs after our ECF. I remember posting how confident I was that the staff would do a proper debrief after the dismal failure against New York and pinpoint the deficiencies. How droll. I would have pitched the perfect tank scenario to Carolina when Jordan Staal went down in an effort to get Eric. DD and whatever to Carolina for Staal. Let them tank for McJesus or Eichel as we push to get over the top in the East. You know like I do that the thought never crossed anyones mind up there. SAD not to have any vision whatsoever with that group.

 

[Beaker]

I’ll tune in just to see the Subban ceremony. I wish I was back in Montreal to attend in person.

 

[Skip Bayless]

No, Arber Xhekaj.

 

[HockeyJunkie87]

Go Habs Go.

 

[sandviper]

I’ll be recording the first 30 minutes of the game for the ceremony So that I dont’ waste DVR space with the game.

Gonna be at Scotiabank for the Raptors game. GHG… or go Suzuki, CC22, Dach, WiFi and a few others. Most of the vets cab go F off.
