GDT: Blue Jackets @ Habs • War of 1812 edition • Dec 1, 19h30 ET • Centre Bell • RDS, SNE

[Cole Caulifield]

The later this game gets the more worried I am. One of those ugly fluke goals and we're done. And even if we escape with the point and it gets to OT, our team looks so brutal on 3 on 3s even when we're rolling! Sooo... shootout?

With Price/Gallagher/Mitchell out and playing with 5 dmen.... I'll be pretty happy with the one point and a chance to win in OT/SO.

 

[M.C.G. 31]

I can't will myself to get excited about anything in this game. It's just so boring.

Why oh why have ALL of our lines been messed with?

 

[sampollock]

Markov is silent

 

[SirClintonPortis]

i love the way CBJ are playing, such a sandpaper-y team. i wouldn't want to face them in the playoffs (if they ever make it )

They suck at actually winning. Always have had sandpaper, even during the Richards era.

 

[Kriss E]

Says a member of a board who has a gazillion threads going as far as DD is concerned...not sure who is more obsessed....

Let's wait a little before saying that this 1 game where they are reunited is WAY MORE important than the 20ish other games they weren't....

Notice the current DD thread was created a month ago..That's gotta be some record for lack of activity

This board has been obsessed with discussing DD because people have strong opinions as to how he needs to be used. If he wasn't given the role he has had, there wouldn't be as many threads.

 

[googlymoogly]

Therrien must own partnership in HF and they called him to get traffic up on the site put DDH Pac together


It worked.

 

[sampollock]

Drop the puck whistle drop offside boring

 

[Capitaine Subban*]

But if DD would have been the shooter....

****ING midget who DIDN'T SHOOT! /!"/"%$%$%$?&?($%?/$"%

Pretty much

 

[Phenom]

Man Max cannot be a 100%.

Yeah but for how long are we going to keep using this excuse though.

 

[Non Player Canadiens]

to be honest, I don't know why, if they always play like this.

 

[waffledave]

You mean playoff DD the last 10 games

Pleks has tough matchup a all the time and has a dual role of checking top lines as well as producing points.. Of which he has 4 in last 4 games

I got called out for daring to mention that DD's production has gone cold...

How dare I say anything about precious David.

Pleks meanwhile isn't allowed to have one bad period.

Chucky has 4 points in 10 games and people are calling to trade him.

 

[sampollock]

No flow yet time is going by

 

[Kimota]

Our team looks VERY different from that 9-0 run.. its very offputting seeing how different it is lol because of both injury and line juggling... its unrecognizable really..

we can only HOPE ... that it comes back in time for the playoffs..

They look like last year.

It really goes without saying but Gallagher has become one of the most important players on the team. You miss him it makes a difference.

Plus Price isn't there to give a calming confidence to the team and his puck moving skills are missed.

To a lesser extent but still important was the play of Mitchell which they miss.

 

[Capitaine Subban*]

Yeah but for how long are we going to keep using this excuse though.

Yep it sounds like the Karlsson's excuse

They have been on fire in November.

 

[sampollock]

Winer if the ice sucks bad passes

 

[Plombier de 4e ligne]

Du jeu MOU.

 

[CH25]

Condon makes me so nervous. Price would be on his way to back to back shutout at this point.

 

[Davebo*]

MT in one fell swoop destroyed every lines confidence.

Someone get a net....

Doesn't have to be one for the other. Both Plek and DD sucks.

Du jeu MOU.

Décousu de fils blancs !

 

[SirClintonPortis]

Woah, slick pass by Fleischmann there.

 

[LaP]

"Plekanets rate la cible"

The shot was deflected Pierre.

8-5-0 isn't exactly "on fire".
