GDT: Game 24: Montreal Canadiens vs Edmonton Oilers 12/03/22 7:00pm EST CBC, TVAS, TSN 690

[StCaufield]

Habs' bottom six is awful too.

Dadonov-Dvorak-Armia
Pezz-Evans-Pitlick

Five guys with ZERO goal !!!!

And we are not missing Hoffman, Gally and Drouin who can barely do better than that.

The injured players are better than all of them except arguably Dvorak and Evans

i disagree with you. It's good bottom lines ; Dadonov gets one goal

 

[Milhouse40]

Wen to Edmonton for a few habs games and it’s somehow drunker than Calgary and just as loud for Montreal if not louder


Pretty meaningless stat though

Not when the whole team is in the minus....

 

[StCaufield]

Not when the whole team is in the minus....

So are you saying he’s the best D man on our team? Must be. Nobody cares about plus minus not even the players as it’s useless

 

[CapSpace]

About goddamn f***ing time Slaf plays elsewhere than with washed up plugs.

Yeah I think guys in Laval can probably do better than Dadonov and Pez, like Ylonen and Richard - and maybe Simoneau. RHP needs to pick it up.

 

[OldCraig71]

Okay Habs, don't make me regret having a nap this afternoon in preparation for watching this one.

Pretty sure none of Ylonen, Richard and RHP will be with the Habs this time next year.

What has me at least taking notice, 3x ppg forwards including one of the better snipers in the league on the 1st line, followed by a 1st OA, a (potential) ppg center and a powerhorse gives two (theoretical) real 1st line since the 90s.

Hughes and Gorton will have a big job to do to revamp their bottom nine. I am not sure at all that Ylonen or RHP are NHL players. Richard is your typical AHL guy. Simoneau has still lots to prove and he is very tiny. Heineman maybe, next year. The rest are very young and raw - Beck-Farrell-Roy-Kidney-Tuch-Mesar-Mysak. Not many big bodies in that group either.

I do hope that Evans will wake up. Dvorak can be kept for another two seasons. But they need wingers !

Well Gallagher and Armia are bottom 6 (I say 4th liners). So there's only 2 wing spots in the bottom 6 open. I do think Ylonen is an NHLer. Heineman also, though perhaps not next year. Hopefully Pitlick gets back on track.

Pretty sure none of Ylonen, Richard and RHP will be with the Habs this time next year.

I think Ylonen is an NHLer. I think he'll provide some secondary scoring and speed from the bottom 6.

Looking like we’re going to see more of the Powerhorse on the PK. Marty is liking the idea.

He has 7 points in 21 games, Molson wants more bang for all of those bucks that he's giving JA.

Yeah, but we're tanking!

Or, supposed to be.

They're not. Apparently, they're trying to make the playoffs.

Allen is gonna shit the bed, should've gone with Motormouth.

I thought game had started, Allen had already given up a goal, and we were down 1-0 because of this comment.

Don't scare me like that!

I actually think Allen has a decent record against the Alberta teams.

 

[Belial]

Amazing commitment, hopefully, the guys on the ice reward you!

 

[MarkovsKnee]

I thought he's been doing ok there. You need speed on the pk. Anderson at least brings that.

Byron was so good on the pk. He & Plekanec were beauties when it came to pk time.

Torts was using him on the PK in Columbus, I have no idea why they never tried it here after he got traded...

Best way to tank! Top loaded, offensive and a middling overworked goalie!

Hab D rookies keep getting suprized with breakaways; I doubt Mc D gets the doughnut tonight! Good learnings.

 

[HabSgt]

That sax tried its best to drown out Ron McLean but it was an impossible task.

 

[OldCraig71]

Amazing commitment, hopefully, the guys on the ice reward you!

I'm doing it for all of you!

 

[the]

I’m going to need @the to explain this to me, before he gets in here with his usual GDT post about « Money Hands Monahan ».

Try to go a whole GDT without using the word “The” and tell me how this bland and innocuous seeming word is not the most popular English word.

Hoping for another multiple point night by THE Money Hands Monahan!

 

[Belial]

I hope Pitlick is gonna fly out there tonight or he's getting a metro ticket to Laval as soon as the game ends.
