12 games into the season and the enthusiasm is gone lol, that has to be a record for us.
Considering the official 2023-2024 tank thread was started after the 2023 draft on the 28th of June, 4 months before the season begin, I think people have been more enthusiastic this season :laugh:.

We win tonight guys............just a hunch.

The kids all say they are playing for the coach, so.......................prove it guys.
Memo to MSL, if Monty lets in two goals on two shots, pull the kid or call a timeout....other coaches do tis all the time!! Thx Marty

I don't want to get caught up in the voting madness but I have to say this. If you don't vote for Youppi dancing with crowd then you are pure evil & a giant poopyhead.

Reviewed some footage of the players performances to date and it looks like Marty may have lost the room, and judging from the projected lineup looks like Marty may have also lost his mind.WWT!

I think Dach will score and the boys will have to show some emotion once Calgary starts hitting everything that moves

Marty only does this once in a while because in MTL it happens so often, it would lose any meaning

He is playing 3D chess in the matrix.

Projected Habs lineup:

Cole CaufieldNick SuzukiKirby Dach
Alex NewhookJake EvansJuraj Slafkovsky
Brendan GallagherChristian DvorakJosh Anderson
Emil HeinemanOliver KapanenJoel Armia

Mike MathesonKaiden Guhle
Lane HutsonDavid Savard
Arber XhekajJayden Struble


I’m at a loss on what to say about the second to fourth lines.

Jake Evans as a number two center??!!! Whooof.

Putting our number one overall draft pick on the second line so that we can continue trying to boost the corpse of Kirby Dach into being productive?

That third line has more holes than a sieve.

And instead of dressing some grit on the fourth line, we’ve got two rookies and a warm body. Lomberg is going to be taking some healthy runs at those two kids.

At least Xhekaj is in the lineup I guess.

If it were me, I’d have Newhook and Armia watch the game from the stands, send Kapanen back to the SHL, insert Pezz into the lineup and call up Beck and Davidson for the game.

My lines would look like:

Caufield - Suzuki - Davidson
Slafkovsky - Beck - Dach
Gallagher - Evans - Anderson
Pezzetta - Dvorak - Heineman

Hutson - Guhle
Matheson - Struble
Xhekaj - Savard

Spread the talent out between the top two lines, add some grit and speed from the AHL guys and insulate them with some veterans, add some toughness for the fourth line and balance our size/speed/talent a little more on the back end.
