GDT: Game 9: Vancouver Canucks vs Montreal Canadiens 2/1/21 7:00pm EST TSN2, RDS (HD), TSN 690

[The Real Timo]

Don't know about that. They admitted in the past Kulaks' consistency is a result of his confidence or lack of thereof. I'm not sure benching the guy after one bad game is the right move here.

Agreed. I don't htink Mete and Romanov together is a good idea.

I'm sure you'll see them playing with Weber/Petry/Chiarot at some points during the game.

Mete? Or benched

 

[Deebs]

Good to see Anderson back in the lineup

Good to see Anderson back in the lineup

Him leaving last game was the REAL bummer over everything else

absolutely happy he's back

I'm sure he was butt hurt over having to leave last game, so we should see a jump in his step tonight

Mete, 2G, 3A, 10 blocks, 20 hits and a fighting major. Book it!

Are those his career stats?

 

[Odie Cleghorn]

Or. They win and go after him one of the other 8 or 9 games remaining? You pick your spots.

We aren't living in the 70's and 80's anymore.
And I think every fan and the team care about winning. Anyway, Its up to the league to prevent this from reoccurring. Its on them and the refs in this case if they make that crap acceptable.

I think the game was over when they didn't make Dube pay immediately.

Canucks are playing rather well since their 3 losses to the Habs. I am expecting a very tight game and would not be surprised if Habs lose another one.

Overall, I am quite scared by this week's opponents.. Sens are gonna be super charged to play vs the Habs, and I would not be surprised if they are the "2021 Red Wings pain in the butt" for them.

Yikes. You must be living on pills if scared of bad teams like Ott and even Van. Could drop a point or 2 tops. Teams can beat Ott 3 straight games without even playing well. Easy week. Perfect time for some roster tweaking to keep everyone sharp.

Vancouver just won their last 4 games although 3 of them were against Ottawa.
We owned them the last time around but I expect them to be a lot tougher tonight.
Lots of confidence right now offensively with at least 4 goals in their last 4 games

Habs were shaky last game.
KK's hit, the lost of Anderson, bounces and calls not going our way, PP couldn't produce...everything went wrong.
Let's hope it was a bad game and not the start of a bad streak.

I really don't get why Mete is in tonight other to show him off.....Frolik isn't playing either and could use some action
Habs really need those 2 points in order to stay close from the 1st place in our division so I hate the move.

 

[TheFutureisBright]

What's that supposed to mean?

Nobody's putting a gun to your head and forcing you to be a Habs fan if it's such a traumatic experience for you...

Wow..... that flew over ur head completely lol

 

[HespelerGreenFlash]

Guys last game I was at my gf house and I forgot my Habs jersey, I wore it every other games of the year... So I guess if I don't wear it we loose. So my priority tonight is to wear the jersey!

I hope we dont loose if you loose it

Anyone know how to get Habs games in SW Ontario without buying NHL centre ice. I have Rogers, including all of the Sportsnet channels and I am sick of missing out on so many games. Tonights game is on SNP, which I get but will be blacked out. Instead I've gotta watch Boston and Washington if I want to watch an NHL game. It's horsehit....two Canadian teams playing and Im forced to watch the Bruins....I bet they have more games broadcast in SW ontario then the Habs.

 

[montreal]

the nucks again, . no offense to them but I'm just getting tired of playing them. guess i'll just get hammered for the game.

 

[Kudo Shinichi]

Mete is going to look rusty after not having played for so long

But the again watching Bos-Wsh might be more interesting to someone "wanting to watch an NHL game" than a Mtl-Van if you are a hockey fan. Want to see just the Habs against whoever then its different but i never understood that frankly. Dont understand the blackout rules too btw especially in a no-attendance season.
And you get another Mtl-Van tomorrow. 5th meeting in 10 games.

I see what you did here, well played.. well played ..

 

[Rockomax]

Im really mad nobody asked Chiarot why he didn't drop the gloves when he said "Well it looked like a clear headshot"

I was surprised as well at the reaction (lack of) of the players. When Armia got hit, Evans and Lehkonen jumped in without thinking twice and both are much smaller than Weber and Chiarot and facing a bigger guy as well. I'm wondering what's the consensus about KK in the locker room about now. His attitude obviously changed since his first season and seems to complain more. The most obvious example was his unsportsman like conduct penalty. I'm not saying it excuses the timid reaction of the team, just that I'm wondering if the general opinion of the player has changed over the last couple of season. I don't have the right words, and I'm kind of having trouble explaining what I'm trying to say, but to me, the team reacted in the way I would have expected NYR players to respond if it was Deangelo who had been hit like that. You're supposed to protect your young up and coming players; I haven't seen the followup as KK returned to the bench, but it seemed to me as if no one really cared (not saying this as fact of course, just a sloppyish hypothesis).

The only explanation for the blackout is that they want to milk more money from us. Otherwise they would allow us to watch the SNP games and still show the Bos-Wash game on the other SN channels

 

[Kudo Shinichi]

I hope Mete has a great game and stays in the lineup moving forward. Kulak has been good, but Mete could be better

Speaking of blackouts... i think i need to change my VPN server for tonight

 

[Habs]

I love how the NHL packages are full price, and there are blackouts lol. Someone remind the boneheads at the sports networks why blackouts exist? No wonder people are not paying and just buying IPTV packages, what a bunch of tards. Price the NHL package at 100$, no blackouts, it isn't worth it to look for another source for the feed. 179 plus taxes, no rebate after last year's shortened season, get bent.

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

that's 1 game not 3 seasons
