GDT: Game 1: Montreal Canadiens vs Toronto Maple Leafs 10/11/23- 7:00pm EST SN, TVAS, TSN 690: Season Opener

[zx81]

Gotta love playing 6 preseason games and have 3 lines basically untested in game 1.

I doubt these will last long.

Still, go Habs go.

I hate the thought of neutralizing Monahan by saddling him with gally and Pearson. .

i rarely complain about trios but this one annoys the crap out of me.

I hope they change trios asap.

 

[zx81]

No injuries to start the season?? What sorcery is this?!

Dvorak ?
Funny thing is that in all the player interviews they talk about their full healthy lineup. Poor Dvorak, everybody forgot about him already

It's like bringing back someone to life with CPR just to shoot them in the head.

You nailed it here man,

Excellent work.

 

[Stive Morgan]

5-4 Habs or 7-1 Leafs, book it

It always seems like it's someone random scoring late if we win, like Moen, Gorges or Armia.

It's about maximizing Monahan's deadline value.

If he can do anything with those two he is worth a 1st.

If those two can produce anything with him he is seen as a God and teams start offering up packages that makes the Nordiques Lindros haul look like peanuts.

 

[ChesterNimitz]

It's game 1 of 82...there should only be good vibes.

The stars will be stars and the rest will, regrettably, be exposed.

Leafs 6 - Habs 3.

I don't think God can do anything with those guys now..

I'll be happy to be proven wrong though.

If he can do anything with those two, he’s worth 2 first rounders.

Same here, I see quotes from MSL about Trying to change gally's game but I don't think that can work. Gally has played the same way since he has been 6 years old. Let him play his style, you may gett a few good games out of him and if not, playing the Gally style will put him on LTIR

Ha! I totally did.

I'd say both those guys are the very definition of washed up at this point, pains me to say it about Gally as he gave us all he had and I will always respect him for that but his shelf life appears to be over.

 

[Colezuki]

I need this one tonight, rough week at work and im just gassed

They gotta give Gally a chance to prove he can keep it up (even if no one believes it) before moving him to 4th line.

 

[Treb]

Thats why we should tank all season buddy lets gooooooo. I doubt anybody can outscore habs legend max domi and his legendary 72 point season , probably top 5 point finish in the past 25 years for the habs

#4

Beat only by Kovalev 07-08 84 pts, Koivu 06-07 75 pts and Recchi 97-98 74 pts.

Plekanec complete the top 5.

Marty was an awesome player. One of my favorites ever.

But as a coach he's wearing out his welcome fast, very fast.

Offensive dynamovs: Habs edition.

 

[Runner77]

I just realized... I don't have a good feeling about this one.

Classic!

Was wondering when you’d post that.

 

[windycity]

My hatred of the Laffs, always on simmer, is moving to medium as game time approaches . . .

 

[Seven7]

Excited.

Lines are mindboggling still.

I agree 7D instead of this shit would have made more sense. Particularly if WiFi ends up getting into it.

They'll shuffle, you know that.

change his game to what? he can't skate, shoot or pass.
his game was always built on desire and sacrifice.
He has nothing left to sacrifice. It's broken

Welcome them to Valhalla when their times come.
