GDT: Around the League - Stanley Cup Edition - Round #3 [Final 4]

[1specter]

MTL vs Isles SCF finals, two teams that lacks high end offensive talent but have hard working, gritty players fully committed to the team's trap system. What a snoozefest that will be.

That would be horrible for the league, and it's already kind of a joke tbh.

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Vegas isn't really helping themselves with botched passes and shot attempts

 

[keonsbitterness]

Anyone rooting for Montreal? What's the consensus here

I can never really root for them. But if they were to play Boston, I'd root against the Bruins.

 

[lebdafor norris]

Montreal sucking the soul of hockey out of this game. My god what a bore fest. Clog it up. Dump it out.


Poor Vegas fans. They just experienced an amazingly entertaining Avs vs Vegas and now they get to witness this crap

At this point, I wouldn't mind if the Leafs just copy the Habs and Islanders system, snoozefest or not, I just want the team to finally get out of the 1st round and if that meant playing a system that will hurt the big 4's offensive numbers, then so be it.

 

[blue stick]

Hated the Habs for my first 40 years, softened up around ten years ago a d tolerated them because my son-in-law is a Habs fan, now cheering for them because I totally detest franchises based in a no-tax zone in a salary cap era.

 

[TMLeafer]

Are Cuthbert and Simpson doing this from the studio?

the NHL reverting back to the god aweful dead puck era because of MTL and the NYI would set the league back. They need to do something to get rid of trap bullshit.

These aren’t exciting games and does nothing to lure in fans.

Poor man’s Islanders…

 

[socko]

This is the kind of obstruction I expected if Montreal got a lead. Clutch and Grab. Hook and Hold.

Think that was Babcock’s thinking. Build a balanced team with just a pinch of elite offensive deployment when you need it, with the Big 3 utilized like a Mathew Barzal in New York. But the fans wanted scoring titles.

 

[keonsbitterness]

3-2

We got a finish.

 

[Stephen]

Yes, Petro.

 

[TMLeafer]

Petro earning that cheque.

 

[keonsbitterness]

Whoa, Price got away with one.

They can tell the refs to start calling playoff games like they did in the regular season, at least during the TO series, it seems as if players from both teams were getting away with to many of those borderline interference and holding plays in the neutral zone, this more loose play would obviously favor trapping teams like the Isles and MTL over the skilled teams like Pitt and TOR.

 

[TMLeafer]

Why's that a whistle?

 

[TimeZone]

Habs get the split.

 

[saffronleaf]

Pathetic Vegas

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

It'd be nice if Vegas actually starts on time next game. They're pulling a Leafs with these crappy starts

 

[3blizzard4]

Price.

MTL just hanging on by a thread since the start of the second period.

this is like the Tim Tebow broncos. They are horrible. They have no business being here.

 

[saffronleaf]

Patches should be ashamed

The NHL cares more about catering to its current fans than making new ones

Nope!
