GDT: GAME 20: HABS @ SHARKS | Geoff, you're killing us! | Fri., Nov. 24th, 2023, 3:30 PM ET -- TSN2, RDS, TSN690, 98.5FM

No shit, it's called Josh Anderson.

That's not what I meant. He looks like he is having a hard time with the pace of the game and it's been that way for a week or more.

Finally tied with the elite San Jose Sharks. I wonder if the Habs can hold on to get a point. Should probably play 1-2-2 just in case, right MSL?

Everyone blaming the coach but guess what? The D has been crap and there’s a bunch of supposed goal scorers (Mr. Caulfield included) who haven’t been scoring. Not all on the coach. Do what you’re getting paid to do.

 

[Andy]

Guys Slaf has looked fantastic the last few games. His game is starting to come together. I think he’s still 1-2 years away but the talent is so clearly there

 

[Natey]

common denominator all seasons...

Imagine being a smart hockey player like Monahan and having to try to think the game at the level he played for the 67's.

They weren't ready to play. That is on the coach. His crap decision making is becoming more clear as time goes on.

 

[Hannibal]

Don’t know why we benching Pezz tbh.

You can see the physical part of his game coming along. He’s been really good lately. Our best player tonight,

 

[Kosseca]

Allen yes, Monty no imo. But Allen was kind of redundant before the season even started

skill wise, I'd keep Monty before Allen, but Monty is seeking a big contract according to rumors, and that I dont think is wise to do. The difference between Monty and Primeau right now may not be 4+ millions per.

True contract will affect that.

 

[Mad]

Slaf will impact all three zones on the ice that's whats so intriguing about him compared to a pure offensive guy like cooley in my opinion

Never thought I’d see that. At least not with how he looked lost without the puck in his zone.

You can see he gained confidence protecting the puck, it keeps working and he’s doing it more and more.

Now even in his zone, he’s not perfect but you don’t see him posting up aimlessly without doing much work.

I was hard on him, but he’s clearly playing better.

 

[Kosseca]

or ylo...

Monty is the best of our goalies, but he's never been given the stick long enough to know if he's worth big money. If that's the case, it's better to trade him. But it needs to happen sooner than later.

or ylo...

Ylonen is so disrespected by MSL.. it's disgusting.

20 points in his last 49 games as 99% a 4th liner. Kid needs a chance.

 

[KevSkillz4]

Slaf have 4 points in his last 5 games. I hope he continue to produce like that !

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

They weren't ready to play. That is on the coach. His crap decision making is becoming more clear as time goes on.

MSL is coaching to develop not necessarily to win. We’ve got three forwards who can be seen as reliable offensive threats. He’s spread them around. It makes sense from a development standpoint to do this.

 

[ReHabs]

I missed the play that lead to the goal and the replays don't show the whole thing but I believe you all about Slaf. He was good in the 2nd period too. More of this.

 

[cave troll]

another CC OT winner incoming?

 

[Goldenhands]

What Button said about Slaf ?

Probably said that he might crack his U24 top 60 next time. Or his top 20 2022 re-draft.

I thought his goal this year was to create a winning culture, or maybe I just misheard him

 

[OldCraig71]

Uncle Craig Button really believes in Slaf.

 

[Natey]

another CC OT winner incoming?

Maybe Ylonen will get it late in the 3rd and still get benched next game.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Honestly thought that was Guhle and then saw it was slaf.

 

[The Gr8 Dane]

wow a 5 on 5 zone entry? Slaf am i dreaming...my expectations are so low

 

[le_sean]

Oh man that Slafkovsky controlled zone exit. What a beauty

 

[Troyp]

Honestly thought that was Guhle and then saw it was slaf.

That rush was insane

Well when you have a kid scoring and keep him on the 4th line to appease vets... your developing culture is shit.

And don't point to Slaf. He was always going to develop. There's a reason he was ranked #1.
