Pre-Game Talk: Countdown thread to 24-25 Season (T - 9 hours)

[Hannibal]

Heineman over Pezz is annoying me. Especially against toronto, game opener with high emotions.

 

[HomaridII]

And AHLer ABB on the 3rd line. Our strategy this year to be in the mix consists of praying.

Imagine, ABB is the most complete and dinamic player in the third line.

Anderson skates fast to nowhere and Dvorak when he gets the puck behaves as if somebody threw him a poisonous snake.

I like Heineman but in this case I agree with you

 

[WeThreeKings]

Not me.. Heineman is big and skates fast, can hit on the forecheck.. ABB is the guy who shouldn't be in the line-up, and you can put either Kapanen or Pezz there instead. ABB should be the 14th forward.

Unfortunately, MSL might be seeing too much of himself in ABB and being a bit sympathetic there. Shouldn't last long.

 

[morhilane]

Surprised that ABB is seen as a solution. He is AHL fodder. MSL will see it soon enough

MSL, like many in here, gave him a gold star for his camp.
And he's a local boy and I think MSL identify with ABB a bit too much.

Agreed, Heineman in the lineup all day for me.

Is this a euphonism for constipation?

The Laine injury is such a hit to the top 6...

 

[Tyson]

The Laine injury is such a hit to the top 6...

Yep that's an understatement

 

[The Real Timo]

ABB over Kapanen is mighty annoying.

They need a bon pt' gars d'chez nous story... it's same old.

Overall, still a pretty sad lineup.

I don't even want to get started on the lower-body tightness. What an unfortunate way to communicate injury.

So Woll can't go tonight

 

[Hannibal]

No Pezz, no Struble.

Poor Xhekaj, he will have to answer and provide all the physicality alone.

This team is soft as butter. Jesus Hughes and Gorton are dropping the ball hard. It was even one of their area of improvement in their end of season presser. Clowns.

I'm sorry, who are we scared of here? They have Reaves and that is it..

 

[Habs]

Heineman over Pezz is annoying me. Especially against toronto, game opener with high emotions.

It makes no f***ing sense at all, Jesus what does Pez have to do? Had a great pre-season and playing such a rival where all hell broke loose last time. I don't get it at all, MSL makes weird decisions.

The Laine injury is such a hit to the top 6...

That 2nd and 3rd line is vomit inducing, mother of god.

 

[waitin425]

Slaf will be coming out guns a blazing. the kid will be the best player in the ice tonight.

Let's f***ing go!!!!

 

[Captain Mountain]

ABB over Kapanen is mighty annoying.

I care less about that (ABB was pretty good in the preseason), and more that Kapanen isn't playing. Hopefully he plays tomorrow, but if he's not going to play, better to have him in Europe where we know he'd get good minutes in a good league on a good team where his dad is the GM.

 

[MtlSars]

Its almost noon and theres to Gameday Thread yet? The hell? I'm heading to the Bell Center today for the opener!

Hope to see the beginning of something great in my boy Lane Hutson

MSL is incompetent beyond certain point. He is a living example of Peter principle. Time for a new coach... and I don't mean it a derogatory way toward MSL. He just doesn't have what it takes to take the team to the next level. And this all on Hughes at this point. I am also starting to have some serious doubts about him.

Lorentz and Benoit are pretty annoying.

 

[WeThreeKings]

Lorentz and Benoit are pretty annoying.

No more than Savard or Guhle are annoying with their physical play.

Slafkovsky and Dach play with more jam than anyone in their top 6. Anderson plays with more jam than anyone but Reaves in their bottom 6.

I don't see an issue here.

 

[Team_Spirit]

To quote William Nylander...

You guys bitch about shit!

Who gives a f*** about 4th line LW? Seriously

Everyone boo Pacioretty

 

[JoelWarlord]

Fire the coach and the GM because Heineman is playing instead of Pezzetta, hockey is back baby
