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

[Woodrow]

Best chance for the Habs so far.

 

[Seb]

Montembeault is locked in. This is a Habs win guys.

 

[BMOK33]

LOL fans so thought that was on Montreal for some reason initially

 

[Theodore450]

This could have been way worse. Monty could have Shat the bed

 

[Booker T]

So apparently a cross-check to the face isn't a penalty anymore.....good to know.

You streaming the game from a server on Pluto?

Srsly I don't know what's wrong with this crowd, but they are weird

 

[notbias]

Of course it has had no impact......it went uncalled......
Majority of Wash's hits are clean but that should have been an immediate penalty.

They were just given a fantom makeup call now, be happy.

Hutson looks scared out there... will likely settle in, but he's already ignored the puck to brace for a hit, figured he'd be more timid when the hitting ramps up.

Pretty understandable.
Zeev Buium looked similar for the Wild against the Knights yesterday.

No matter how talented, it's a big deal for such young players to fully realize, "I'm in the big time, against big time competition, in the toughest time of the year"

If Hutson really is a future NHL great player, yea, he will settle in and adjust.

 

[Miro4Norris]

Early Whistle for a penalty

 

[D Wakaluk]

Should have slashed into his mouth

---

Habs will score first

 

[Bear of Bad News]

Jennifer Coolidge will always be Stifler’s Mom to me. Lol.

She was fantastic in "Best in Show":

 

[frederixx]

Everyone expected the Caps to be all fired up, but can they keep going throughout the whole game?

 

[TropicalFruitGirl2]

They’re really targeting Ghule

CONSTANTLY trying to grab him....

 

[Cool Hand Puke]

Now I have "Stacy's Mom" (which isn't even what you said) stuck in my head and I don't like it.

But I think we can all agree that Stacy’s Mom really did have it going on…

 

[dhfa]

Yeah seemed odd time to kill the play when the puck was still loose and the habs were threatening to score.

 

[Block]

Of course it has had no impact......it went uncalled......

I mean Gallagher was crosschecking him first, so /shrug.

 

[Miro4Norris]

Laine about to score

 

[TropicalFruitGirl2]

Here's your shot, Habs....

First PP of the game..

 

[HockeyVirus]

Laine about to score

He about to get hotdogged on

 

[Gravity]

I mean Gallagher was crosschecking him first, so /shrug.

Agreed and had no problem with TVR crosschecking him back in the chest. To the face though.....

 

[BigDaddyLurch]

He about to get hotdogged on

...he's about to turn into Phil Kessel??...

 

[PhysicalGraffiti]

She was fantastic in "Best in Show":

Very underrated and hilarious movie.

 

[HockeyVirus]

...he's about to turn into Phil Kessel??...

Goalie robbed him and showed it to him

 

[Miro4Norris]

...he's about to turn into Phil Kessel??...

If its Phil Kessel vs Caps in playoffs im fine with it

 

[ROLLT1DE]

Why is the worst team in the playoffs getting coverage on all sportsnet channels over the presidents trophy winner?
