GDT: Game 55: Montreal Canadiens vs Edmonton Oilers 5/10/21 7:00pm EST TSN2, RDS, TSN 690

I was gonna mention Staal sitting on the ice but everyone else already did lol

If that guy comes back next year then I gotta wonder that the hell kind of back room deals go on in la Centre Bell.

 

[Loner]

Caufield is nothing but a 3 on 3 and PP specialist

Caufield is coming from the NCAA with less than 10 games in the NHL, he needs to adjust to the pace. He also needs a coach using him correctly

 

[Wats]

It's pretty hard. 1 point magic number and I think Calgary and Vancouver play 4 against each other.

Montreal losing out with 0 points in this and next game is completely realistic/likely.

Calgary faces a Canucks team that's in worse shape than any team in the league schedule wise. They also have lot of injuries/tired. 4 games in a row against the worst team in the league... Will be interesting.

 

[DramaticGloveSave]

The BEL line looks to be something. 3 guys with speed, high compete levels, and smart two way players. So far they’ve answered the BEL. Wish the rest of the team would take note.

ITT: People that don't know the difference between clinching and clenching

 

[cphabs]

He's just a kid, cut him some slack.

Is he playing on his natural side yet?

 

[Tyson]

No it does not. Those two POs dont count.

5 years without POs in MTL and they are talking about reupping Bergevin.

Mass exodus of lifelong fans if he is extended.

Man Ducharme HATES KK
If hes back next year i AINT watchin

In a couple months, he destroyed KK's confidence. KK is a shell of himself. This is the worse he's ever played in the NHL. By far.

 

[Natey]

I am not sure why anyone would be upset losing anyone on this team except for Suzuki.KK,Romanov ,Anderson,Toffoli and maybe Petry.The rest are not worth a bag of potatoes.All the guys making anything more than 5 mil should be on the please take me list.

Evans is a really good young player. Probably better than at least 2 on your list.

 

[dinodebino]

But Vancouver or Calgary needs to sweep 4 against each other.

That's pretty hard. If either of them lose, OT or regulation, they're out.

The Flames could do it. They are fresh. Had many days off. Cannots, I don't think so.

 

[CaptainKirk]

Staal pass into ccs feet again. Moments later gets knocked down and just sits there.

He wanted young Cole to come sit with him as he told stories of his glory days.

 

[Doc McKenna]

If only we had lost one of those calgary games or beat vancouver 2 less times. Might see some action from king geoffy

 

[zx81]

Our first playoff round will be the 4 CGY-VAN games because this team will not clinch by itself.

 

[Redux91]

Why are you the way that you are?

 

[Habz4Evr]

Bergevin says goodbye

The Habs should be so lucky.

 

[beowulf]

Got to love the only 2 goals are by the just put together 4th line.

 

[Natey]

Montreal losing out with 0 points in this and next game is completely realistic/likely.

Calgary faces a Canucks team that's in worse shape than any team in the league schedule wise. They also have lot of injuries/tired. 4 games in a row against the worst team in the league... Will be interesting.

You mean the same Canucks who are beating the Jets right now?

A 4 game sweep isn't an easy thing.

 

[Rockomax]

Caufield is coming from the NCAA with less than 10 games in the NHL, he needs to adjust to the pace. He also needs a coach using him correctly

He also needs a good passer to be effective. Not comparing them, but Hull has had Oates, Ovie has Backstrom, Matthews has Marner. We don't have a player with a compatible skill set for Caufield

 

[Wats]

I am not sure why anyone would be upset losing anyone on this team except for Suzuki.KK,Romanov ,Anderson,Toffoli and maybe Petry.The rest are not worth a bag of potatoes.All the guys making anything more than 5 mil should be on the please take me list.

My list only has Suzuki, Caufield (still hasn't been exposed to this management too much) and Toffoli.

 

[NineteenSixtyFive]

He wanted young Cole to come sit with him as he told stories of his glory days.

 

[Film Noir]

The only thing this team is built for is to draft top 5 in a regular season

And then proceed to draft poorly.

 

[OnTheRun]

Or a futur elite player? I mean. Exemple. Im playing in a hockey team. You are the coach and you tell me « hey. That new guy,#15, is young but he is good, like he should become a futur really good player, near elite ». I will say. Ok lets see him! During the game. You you look at his stride,speed/balance/hands. No one hockey player will say to him after the game. : « hey kid. You were really good. You are a futur elite player. » Damn. Anybody who played with a younger player because he was too good to play on an inferior league, know they arent looking like KK, they are smaller most of the time and are less stronger but they are dynamics and want to prove they deserve to play on a superior league

Okay, cool?
Right now they should be worried about their asses getting handed to them instead of worrying about KK's ceiling.

 

[Natey]

The Flames could do it. They are fresh. Had many days off. Cannots, I don't think so.

I still don't see them beating Vancouver 4 in a row.

 

[Paddy17]

Another 20 years old bust...

These "fans"... don't deserve any superstar ever. They just deserve to argue with other people on twitter.

 

[Riddick412]

This team can very easily lose five in a row. Does not bode well for playoffs (if they make it lmfao)
