GDT: ECQF: Game 1 - Washington Capitals vs Montreal Canadiens, 7pm ET

[Prairie Habs]

MTL needs to stay disciplined

MTL aren't the team crosschecking their opponents in the face

 

[Seedtype]

I'm glad the mascot is enjoying the game, heh.

 

[trellaine201]

It’s ok to leave your feet to make a hit? Serious question

 

[Canadiens Ghost]

And the montreal dive team shows up early.

Had no idea a crosscheck to the face was now considered a dive. The more you know.

 

[MustardStew]

Wilson's kept his jumping into hits regimen going, at least

 

[Panthaz89]

TIL you can cross check someone right to the jaw. I feel like that is something the rest of the league should know about

Dude was approaching the goalie like 5 seconds after the whistle was already blown and got right in the defenseman's face.

 

[WhiskeyYerTheDevils]

Montreal needs to weather the storm

 

[eviohh26]

He went after a dude thats a foot taller than him... if he goes after anyone of average height, he's getting crosschecked no matter what.

Not sure what you are trying to say lol .

 

[Toyoraura]

Laine needs to keep using his body like that, dont be soft

 

[eviohh26]

Dude was approaching the goalie like 5 seconds after the whistle was already blown and got right in the defenseman's face.

So you get a free pass to crosscheck a guy in the face?

 

[PatriceBergeronFan]

It’s ok to leave your feet to make a hit? Serious question

In the playoffs, for some teams. Washington, Florida, yes.

 

[Woodrow]

Guy without his stick was just getting in the way of his own teammates.

 

[Theodore450]

Matheson is so fkn bad

 

[notbias]

Boys against men so far...

 

[Jee]

Washington's crowd already dead? Why do they sound like it's pre-season? Booooooring

 

[Cool Hand Puke]

Already complaining about the refs eh?

 

[JoeyBeans]

habs need to get aggressive

 

[TropicalFruitGirl2]

I'm glad the mascot is enjoying the game, heh.

Was that the mascot?
Or the beer vendor dressed as an eagle???

 

[Kaner9]

Wash looking to hmmer mtl and they aint havin it. I don't see mtl holding up this series

 

[notbias]

TIL you can cross check someone right to the jaw. I feel like that is something the rest of the league should know about

100% should have been a penalty, Gallagher also cries wolf a lot..

 

[HockeyVirus]

This is what I was talking about in the series thread. Hutson does not have the build to ever be a factor at playoff time. Certainly not a #1 dman

 

[TropicalFruitGirl2]

habs need to get aggressive

They tried that...
Gallagher opened his mouth, someone shut it for him with a two by four...

 

[PattyLafontaine]

Hutson flew about 5 feet

 

[Woodrow]

Can no one hold on to their stick?

 

[Summer Rose]

Frenetic pace so far.
