Around the League - 2024-2025 Part II

[ThrowDemTongs]

Montreal booing an injured Thompson is something else

 

[ThrowDemTongs]

Wow, Dylan Strome you had one job to do on that play and it wasn't to injure your own goalie...

Just assassinated him

 

[7even]

Holy shit Strome killed him

 

[Stephen]

Just assassinated him

No defensive coverage on a goal scorer and bonus knocks out Thompson.

 

[Jojalu]

This game is exciting as hell.. Washington Habs

Right!

Easily one of the best of the playoffs.

The whole series has been pretty good, but not this good

 

[ThrowDemTongs]

What's with Washington and Darren Puppa imitators

 

[disgruntleddave]

Washington just falling apart at the seams defensively makes me appreciate our defensive structure even more.

 

[Delete1]

I don't love this for Washington. I wouldn't put it past Montreal to win this series.

Slafkovsky scores the dagger with 5 minutes left in the third,

5-3 Habs and The crowd in Montreal goes wild.

Logan Thompson is now hurt. The injury looks serious,he can’t even put weight on his left knee/leg. Maybe the turning point of the series?

 

[cyris]

Montreal has the best home crowd in hockey.
I hate so much that it’s true

 

[mix1home]

Caps just literally destroyed their own goalie. Wow.

 

[LeafalCrusader]

Playoff games in Montreal are always fun to watch.

I still think the Caps will take care of them in 5.

Habs outshooting the caps 36-19
They’re also outhitting and out skating them too.

Habs deserve to win tonight, they carried the play and had the most dangerous scoring chances in this gams. Their speed and aggressive forecheck exploited the slow and chaotic defense of the caps and forced the caps players to take penalties.

Nah, you can't deny it. They absolutely do. For pure fan insanity I always default to Philadelphia, in any sport, but for hockey Montreal fans wear the crown.

 

[cyris]

Ottawa has basically been the worst playoff team to this point.

Edmonton is close. Amazing offensive firepower but maybe the worst defence and goaltending I have ever seen in playoff hockey.
No to mention they don’t start trying until the Kings have been up by 3.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Can't say I am a fan of how well this Habs rebuild has gone so far lol

 

[cyris]

The energy in the building is amazing. There is no other teams that come even close.
And they intimidate the officials into calling penalties.
The TVR penalty in the 3rd for example

 

[Brobust]

They have Sandin PKing? Caps going nowhere.

 

[torontoblood]

I still think the Caps will take care of them in 5.

The Habs are getting better and more comfortable as the series goes on. I wouldn’t be surprised to see them win the series in 6 or 7. Especially with Logan Thompson out long term because of injury.

Not very impressed by the Caps. They are good but not Stanley cup contenders good. They are pretenders and Paper tigers. the only playoff team in the east I'm really worried about is florida. I fear them for obvious reasons we all know.

 

[PROUD PAPA]

Well that one is over.
Let’s see if Pickard has better luck behind that putrid Oilers d than Skinner did.

No I don’t think they’re contenders either.

 

[Daisy Jane]

Caps just literally destroyed their own goalie. Wow.

wait what? what do you mean?

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Similar to STL, the Habs were shot out of a cannon tonight and completely dominated. We can tell who the Caps really are by how they respond in game 4

Oh without a doubt. They're crazy in two languages.
