Post-Game Talk: Habs somehow beat NJ!

[Cournoyer12]

I was able to get the TSN broadcast with Robertson here via my ESPN+ subscription. Enjoyed his play by play very much. I haven't missed NHL.tv here in the States at all. ESPN+ has been fine all season.

For some reason I couldn’t get that broadcast, I also have ESPN Plus, probably my stupid fat fingers and crappy eyesight!

 

[Redux91]

Would Slaf + 10 overall get us 3rd overall?

If not, goes to show Slaf’s value.

Don’t think he’s go top 10 in this draft.

Thanks for the contribution.

 

[The Real Timo]

If I am to believe Mapper from TVa Sports, he had a, ahem, sanitary episode. That’s what he tweeted. Could have been a joke though.

Urgence sanitaire pour Armia

Is taht why MSL was smirking on the bench?

 

[BeliveauFan4ever]

No Caufield, Monahan, Edmundson, Guhle or Arber and…@NJ is a win?

OK.

Nothing odd about that, nothing at all.

 

[WeThreeKings]

It's karma. Hoping your team loses is bad mojo.

Weird how Karma seems to pick and choose which tanking teams it applies itself to.

 

[Sasha Orlov]

I actually hate this franchise lmfao

 

[Team_Spirit]

Monty outplayed Vanecek there is no need to panic. The Coyotes are 5-1-4 it could always be worse.

Meanwhile

I'd love to hear what HuGo's expectations and goals are for the rest of the season. I have a feeling I'd disagree with them on both of those subjects.

 

[Hansman]

You don't get it ??? come on !

me neither

I 2nd this 2nd motion.

Meanwhile

I'll have to refute the graphic.
Sportsnet says the interest in Anderson comes out of Montreal, not really hearing it anywhere else.
Dvorak has not once been talked about or rumored, no interest, no shopping.
Armia has 0 interest.
Dadonov has mid pick interest.
Dreger said the phones aren't even lukewarm on Hoffman.
Every outlet has reported there is 0 interest in Drouin.

All they are doing by not shitting their pants is hurting us.

You're aware this year's draft isn't last year's draft, right? And that this year's players weren't available last year, right?

 

[Paddy17]

What happened to all these tough road games the Habs were supposed to have?

I don't know... I heard about strength of schedule and how we were suppose to lose lots of games due to the toughest schedule out there...

 

[Stive Morgan]

Robertson is the best play-by-play guy on Canadian television, it's not even close. I used to say that about Cuthbert till he turned into a Leafs homer. DR has a way of creating energy for the listener, he has a style that's similar to 90s early 2000's Bob Cole.

I still go back and listen to his calls from the 2017 playoffs from time to time. (If I can find them) Dude got so fired up in that game against the Rags where Plekanec tied it with like 5 seconds left and Radulov won it in OT.

 

[JianYang]

I'd love to hear what HuGo's expectations and goals are for the rest of the season. I have a feeling I'd disagree with them on both of those subjects.

Hughes has been pretty candid in saying that winning is not the biggest priority right now (in nicer words)

However, management can't tell the players on the ice to pack it in. If they are overachieving, then you just have to live with it.

Meanwhile, HuGo just need to stay the course, so I expect more veterans will be on the move if they can help it.

 

[Rapala]

Yeah. His mobility and reach are very noticeable on the PK.

His frame as well. The one thing I hated with the strumps killing penalties was their inability to fill a lane. Anderson and Dach do a much better job and both have decent reach. Suzuki is more cerebral.

 

[Whalers Fan]

No Caufield, Monahan, Edmundson, Guhle or Arber and…@NJ is a win?

OK.

Nothing odd about that, nothing at all.

You forgot Dach.

 

[BeliveauFan4ever]

You forgot Dach.

Arrrrgh. (Facepalm)

Dach was going very well, too.

Ripley’s Believe It Or Not can’t believe the Habs won that game.

5 goals on 18 shots isn't odd?

It didn't matter who the Habs iced last night, when NJ defense and goaltending didn't show up.

Cuthbert's decline has been so disappointing, from one of the best in the sport to a total Leafs cheerleader. Remember in game 5 in 2021 when he completely butchered the call on Suzuki's OT goal?

How often do any of the insiders actually predict anything accurate until like 30mins before something goes down? Almost never. It's all just educated guesses and speculation to drive clicks and engagement.

I have SN plus with VPN set to Vancouver.

Two of the usual insider protection phrases when they spend the weeks leading up to the TDL:

1) Now this can change with a quick phone call.
2) I'm not saying they would do that (proceeds to say what they might do).

Man that neckbeard is hideous!

Bobby Mac (goat) would never stoop to this level

Yeah that was rough, Poor dude was shell shocked and couldn't believe there was a 2 on 0 in a PLAYOFF OT lmao. To be fair none of us could believe it either at the time
