REMINDER: THERE IS TO BE NO TANK TALK IN GDT.

The GDT is a place to discuss the game, piss on the refs, cheer for our team & make fun of Buffalo. It is NOT to cheer losses. If you wish to do that, there is now a tank thread for that.

Warnings or thread bans may occur if you use this thread to cheer for a Canadiens loss.

Go Habs!!


Some new line combos this morning at practice

Tellement bizarre que Suzuki score 2 buts en 22 secondes pis il a l'émotion d'un gars qui se promène dans les allées au Maxi.

 

[Rapala]

Laine - Suzuki - Slafkovsky is what I'm waiting for. Get Dach off the 1st line.

Yeah it wasn't visions of candy canes and sugar plums I had before the season started.
It was visions of a complete first line.

 

[ReHabs]

I mean Dach looked really good with Caufield before he got hurt and forgot how to play hockey

Those legendary four periods last year?

 

[Tuggy]

That's a way to end the period!

 

[Habssince89]

Slaf and Nick are the duo that needs to be nurtured. Very good chemistry and complementary skillets. No offense to CC

 

[The Gr8 Dane]

Xhekaj is to MSL what Eller was to Therrien.

 

[Canadienna]

But he does have three points

As if this is an attempt at a dunk?

Ive defended Suzuki a ton, and we've got people calling him fat and saying we should strip the captaincy....

Whether or not he's got 3 points, it has absolutely nothing to do with my post. Go find the actual bad faith criticisms to respond to.

 

[FLHabs]

I'm catching up on my stream, but I hope that Suzuki goal wakes him up

*Aaand he just scores a second one haha

 

[HabSgt]

Xhekaj is to MSL what Eller was to Therrien.

So if/when he gets traded he will win the Cup?

I mean good for him but bad for us...again.

Dude sont dernier dans ligue lol

 

[Mrb1p]

Slaf and Nick could form an elite 2-way 2nd line on a contender

I think the player in our system who fits best with those responsibilities is Roy

Yep, I've said it before. I'd try Roy there or Laine when he comes back.

Laine-Suzuki-Slaf is a very balanced line IMO.

 

[Kennerback]

Let’s b

said all the fans before the season even started...

All the MSM,all the fans, the whole world really, but MSL probably doesn’t want to hurt Matheson’s feelings.

 

[Koivu11]

Suzuki pots 2 to give Habs the lead.

 

[sheed36]

MSL's leash for Matheson's constant dumb plays.

MSL's leash for Xhekaj after 1 mistake or a penalty.

 

[EveryDay]

Slaf and Nick needs to be stapled at the hip until they can't skate anymore. I don't care about Cole, the real first line duo is Slaf Nick

I agree and I hope they try Laine with them.

Laine-Suzuki-Slafkovski

They need to find a center for Caufield.

 

[Andrei79]

I don't like Gallagher's AAV, but he's been competing hard and unlike Anderson, he's fairly good defensively.

I'm usually pretty happy to be grocery shopping tbh

 

[Andy]

they're more complimentary than Nick/CC IMO, but I think that goal is probably the most hustle I've seen from Slaf all year.

That was the hustle that gave Slaf success last year.

The whole team is so passive since the start of the season. I don't get it.

 

[Karma Police]

Xhekaj is dogshit honestly. There's no need to defend him right now. He should be sent to Laval, He's just not there and has no confidence at all in his play

 

[Mrb1p]

they're more complimentary than Nick/CC IMO, but I think that goal is probably the most hustle I've seen from Slaf all year.

Slaf can't carry a line yet. He needs to be next to the best player to be at his best.

Cole can lose the puck by himself on whatever line.

 

[Runner77]

Side note: Anthony Mantha is out for the season. Perpetually injured guy injured again, totally unpredictable.

C'est legit plus interessant d'aller au maxi qu'une game a buffalo a midi un lundi

 

[Riddick412]

Man when's the last time the Habs led a game going into the third?

 

[Kennerback]

You know the saying, Matheson not Team First.

 

[Andrei79]

I agree and I hope they try Laine with them.

Laine-Suzuki-Slafkovski

They need to find a center for Caufield.

I was wondering who's available at C ? Would be nice to find an underrated player like Strome, but that's who Dach was until his body was broken.
