GDT: Florida Panthers vs Montreal Canadiens 3/30/17 7:30pm EST SNE, RDS, TSN 690

[Treb]

I think we really need a list of who is doing what GDTs. I got the ok for this one from dong, but Treb y'all did make a fine one.

But no sense wasting several hours of work.....so this GDT gets a colourful supplement.......

I'm so confused

 

[Krnage]

pretty much guarantee that Jonathan Marchessault will score against us

 

[Habsawce]

pretty much guarantee that Jonathan Marchessault will score against us

but how many times?

 

[McGuires Corndog]

4 shot in the last 4 games (3 in the same game) for Galchenyuk. Not looking good before playoffs. Let's hope he steps it up.

IMPOSSIBLE!

We were all told by the so called "experts" around here that he's better as a winger?!

mmhmmm.

He wasn't very good at centre either, though

If you ignore the previous 50+ games before his injury and focus on the dozen games after his return then maybe you have a point

 

[Ohashi_Jouzu*]

Pretty stoked we can clinch tonight.

Not sure if that's really relevant anymore. You can't rely on "well 3 months ago he was playing well..." in today's NHL with so much parity. He was playing terrible at C and only getting results because of who he played with. I don't disagree he could stay at centre or be given another chance, but the team needed results so they moved him off centre.

 

[peate]

Put Galchenyuk back at centre please.

Lehkonen-Galchenyuk-Radulov
Pacioretty-Plekanec-Gallagher
Byron-Danault-Shaw
King-McCarron-Martinsen

Thank you very much.

Yeah those would be my lines as well. I always thought Patches and Pleks went well together and Lehk and Chucky together could be deadly. Danault fits better on the third and with Byron that line would be flying.

Expect another strong showing tonight, after the first 5 minute Panther's rush of course.

GO GO​

I don't really get your point. Things are not that simple ; because he's not playing well now doesn't erase his past performances at center with the best wingers.

It makes too much sense and NHL coaches are smarter than us.

If, whenever a player had a cold spell, they had to change positions and take a lesser role we would have no players left o our team (including Price this year). Do we really need Plekanec's 3 points in his last 30 games so much that we can't let Chucky develop at the position?


So Chucky only produced because he was playing the Rads and Byron but now those two are far too busy producing less on other lines to try again? Also, on that note, why is Danault allowed to stay at C despite being a black hole playing between our two best forwards?

No kidding, he's super hot at the moment.

 

[OriginalCanadian]

Markov will become the Habs stand-alone 2nd all-time point leader for defencemen tonight!

Book it!

3 teams below us are already in the playoffs

Let's win this one tonight!

The difference I would think is that AG has never been able to prove himself at C. He isn't good defensively. He needs to get better there if he wants to play centre for Therrien and now Julien.

What a couple of cutie pies.

 

[Adamcrazy3]

look at those cuties

So Chucky is less proven at 1C than Danault?

Bring back my Expos!!

Amazing standing ovation for Tim Raines...what a great player and a even better person!

 

[Krnage]

cheryln is cute too

 

[Le Tricolore]

This singer is so terrible.

 

[didimentionlarseller]
