GDT: GAME 24: WINGS @ HABS | Back in the saddle? | Sat., Dec. 2nd, 2023, 7:00 PM ET -- CBC, TVAS, CITY, TSN690, 98.5FM

[Boss Man Hughes]

Did Detroit challenge the goal?

 

[Natey]

Detroit challenge, I'm sure it's coming back.

Don't need a replay.

I'm a Habs fan and a Wolves fan. I'm so done with video replay lol

 

[Naslundforever]

All three goals are 100% Jake Allen's fault. I honestly don't remember the last time the team had a goalie this awful.

He’s playing backup

[Habs]

Terrible period. Canadiens are playing like they did in the 3rd period against Florida. Just pratfalls all over the place.

it's never Marty's fault, just Anderson's apparently.. for everything lol

 

[26Mats]

Barron is pretty good no matter how much u shit on him for every small mistake he makes.

Barron has been the best part of this season so far for me.

But he made two HUGE mistakes on the Wings 2nd goal.

1st he coughs up the puck on the blue line as the last man back. Then, in skating back he's with the trailer, then let's the trailer beat him to the rebound and put it in. Both can't happen. Hopefully good learning moments for him.

 

[Ezpz]

Barron outscoring most of our forwards.

 

[Kobe Armstrong]

it's never Marty's fault, just Anderson's apparently.. for everything lol

Just another 5 shot period

 

[JianYang]

Didn't the Habs also beat the Redwing something like 10-0 on this same day? I might be off but it would have been in the therrien era.

Barron outscoring most of our forwards.

It's no flash in the pan, imo. he regularly puts himself in position to get scoring chances in the slot.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Yeah, I saw it was Anderson playing the point. No way you want Anderson playing the point. That late in period Guhle needs to stay back.

Anderson isn't going to defend shit.

 

[Kobe Armstrong]

Since the Anderson goal is guaranteed tonight we just need one more person to step up to tie it

 

[red devil]

Barron outscoring most of our forwards.

True as the only forwards with more goals are Suzuki, Caufield, Monahan and Newhook

 

[Chili]

The Habs looked so soff in their own end on those goals.

 

[Habssince89]

It's no flash in the pan, imo. he regularly puts himself in position to get scoring chances in the slot.

Barron is a good finisher as an offensive D. I think he'll always have higher goal totals

 

[JianYang]

Yeah, add Condon, niemi, Kinkaid... I mean, it's not like we are going that far back.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Jenn looks like she has cake.

If you know what I mean

 

[Jack Skellington]

I don't believe that Hughes ever actually recieved some crazy offer for Anderson last year. I think he was trying to inflate his value in the media like he did with Chiarot and Lehkonen, but if he really did turn down a first then that is going to hurt for a long time. I remember it was rumoured New Jersey and NYI were offering a pick ~15 and I was begging Hughes to do it.

 

[Habssince89]

Evans has been playing pretty well I have to admit. Winning faceoffs and finishing checks. He shouldn't be centering Slaf though

 

[Rapala]

Yeah, I saw it was Anderson playing the point. No way you want Anderson playing the point. That late in period Guhle needs to stay back.

Anderson isn't going to defend shit.

I agree Guhle has to understand who is reliable enough to cover his ass.

 

[zx81]

stuff is falling from the tron?

Even the jumbotron wants to shit on this team.

 

[red devil]

Insane that the Habs lead the league in goals from their defense core.

 

[26Mats]

We have like 4 forwards that have above average puck skills

I'm liking Ylonen's newfound assertiveness and confidence.

He usually makes the safe play. Tonight I've seen him make a lot of great assertive plays, as well as force plays when there's no play to be made. He's asserting himself and figuring out when to go and when to make the safe play. I'm glad he's over experimenting. I hope he keeps it up. I think he wants to assert himself to get more ice time higher up in the lineup.

 

[Kobe Armstrong]

But don't worry the Chris Wideman extension will be announced between periods
