Man I feel like a loser cheering for Montreal to lose

Mtl!! That team was bad, so easily beatable. It's surreal seeing them playing in the Conference finals while we've been out for 2 weeks

Habs fans can basically say whatever they want right now. Don't have any counter/defense. Don't feel like this team, coaching staff and management is worthy of defending. They really blew it this year

I believe the negotiations actually went like this:

VGK just exploded three huge hits on Montreal on the forecheck. They are a loveable team. I like to think they are doing this for JT91.

 

[PromisedLand]

VGK bullying the toilet seats LOL

 

[Trapper]

Vegas not going to let them play the boring game...they'll just keep hitting the Habs.

Man these teams are so behind our curve.
They will be surprised when we beat the entire league playing on 5 guys taking up all the cap.

Habs with a better first 10 mins of the period, scored on. Vegas with the better 2nd half.

Two teams that give a shit, can't see Toronto roughing it up and matching the physicality of the Knights in round 3.

There's always next year!! and next, and next, and next. Oh, 2021? WE'RE THE GODS, KINGS OF THE REGULAR SEASON NORTH DIVISION! Oh wait, next..

 

[rumman]

Didn’t take long for these teams to ge a hate on for eachother

KINGS OF THE REGULAR SEASON NORTH DIVISION!

That would make an awesome t-shirt.

Vegas have such an effective forecheck.

Vegas forwards with 18 hits that period.

This will wear down the Habs D over long series.

The attrition game is such a normal part of playoff hockey but if you were to explain it to the Maple Leafs they'd probably think you were a Martian.

2-0 VGK on the powerplay.

 

[Superstar]

Must be nice to have d men who could slap the puck...2-0 Vegas.

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

What a play by Theodore

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

2-0 VGK on the powerplay.

Even strength I think

When you hit and take the body, it's not hard to get the hate on.

 

[Suntouchable13]

Would anyone be in favour of doing a re-seed like this for the 3rd round a permanent thing?

 

[Stephen]

Ah okay. Mark Stone is such a brutal skater but he can still get to the net in a hurry. Key lesson here is the combination of hustle and a straight line game.

Leafs need so much more of that. Hyman and Foligno were supposed to but both were battling injuries, and Simmonds is just too old now and he took a beating that series. Need more guys able and willing to lay the body, less useless slugs like Engvall and Mikheyev that wouldn’t hurt a fly and have no offensive talent to boot.

tbh we need it from all our players.
it's pretty hard to become a certain style of hockey team if your core players especially ones who make all the money dont want to play that way.

we could go get Reaves and Wilson and if the core 4 dont want to sacrifice the body and play greasy hockey on a nightly basis it most likely wont matter.

your best players set the tone.

 

[Superstar]

I notice Vegas doesn't skate the puck back into their zone when they have the chance to just chip it out past their blueline, especially when they know there's a Hab player near by.

I guess Stone is for stone feet and not stone hands...

Muzzin pretty much proved this. He's soft as butter now.

 

[mikeyz]

I would be shocked if the Habs don't get swept.

Vegas is so much better then them in every aspect of the game.
