GDT: GAME 27: MTL @ BUF | Buffalo wings and a prayer | Sat., Dec. 9th, 2023, 7:00 PM ET -- CBC, TVAS, SN360, TSN690, 98.5FM

A young player coming into his own with 38 goals two seasons ago and 47 last year...he is elite.

He’s not. Elite is 110+ points. Elite is thrown around way too often. He’s no McDavid or Pasta. That’s elite

 

[Tyson]

He's no Lindros.

That's a friggin leap ain't it? Who said he was? We should be so lucky to have a Tage Thompson level player on our team someday.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Thompson is good but he’s not elite at all. Not sure what the big deal is with him. He’s a giraffe with 12 hits all season and hardly ever battles in the corners. Caufield literally slightly hits more lol

Well, Thompson had 37 goals and 68 pts in 2021-22 and followed it up with 47 goals and 94 pts last year.

Maybe not elite. But he's more than just good.

And here's to you, Eric Robinson
Jesus loves you more than you will know
Whoa, whoa, whoa
God bless you, please, Eric Robinson
Heaven holds a place for those who pray
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey

It's ok if you tell me to now get out of this GDT guys.

 

[StCaufield]

The big deal is 47 goals last year. When's the last time anyone got close to that for the Habs?

If that’s the case then anybody in the league in the last 30+ years that’s scored 40 only because Montreal hasn’t had someone do it means that the player is elite. Makes sense

 

[Tyson]

He’s not. Elite is 110+ points. Elite is thrown around way too often. He’s no McDavid or Pasta. That’s elite

Whatever man, you wish we had him on our roster. He is a star player...is that better?

I agree

 

[HabbyGuy]

I just think the word elite is thrown around too much, ofcourse I'd love if he was a hab.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

A couple of years? Struble spent 4 years at Northeastern.

 

[HabSgt]

Damn Strumble is strong for his size.

Francis Bouillon 2.0?

Ask Darcy Tucker how strong Frankie Boo was!

 

[waitin425]

Slaf, Struble and Primeau are lights out!

 

[Rapala]

Watched a couple of one timers by Ottawa. Cole not making those subtle adjustments as the passes are coming in.

 

[Tyson]

I just think the word elite is thrown around too much, ofcourse I'd love if he was a hab.

He is some amazing skills for a big man. Watch him stick handle, big players generally don't have quick hands like that. He will score 60 one season soon.

Definitely has some very soft hands for a big man.

 

[HuGo Burner Acc]

He’s not. Elite is 110+ points. Elite is thrown around way too often. He’s no McDavid or Pasta. That’s elite

I disagree. Not with the substance but semantics. I think the word "superstar" is thrown around way too much. There's probably like 5-10 superstars in the league. The rest I'd call elite or stars

 

[Kimota]

Francis Bouillon 2.0?

Cube should have showed up to fight in Laval.

 

[Tyson]

Definitely has some very soft hands for a big man.

He struggled for 3 + seasons when he got to Buffalo. I hope Slaf resembles that skill level in. couple of years.

Some of you are talking to someone I have on my ignore list, so I don't see the quote.

I don't have a lot of people on my ignore list, if you're on there, you wether have a history of the worst f***ing opinions ever or you're just a troll.

 

[JianYang]

I swear everytime I read GDTs without knowing the score, it seems like the habs are losing big.

Stars are below elite. Just like millionaires aren’t billionaires but I see what you mean

 

[Kimota]

Does anyone doubt Harris will be expendable?
He's not great on that right side a 7 at best in the very near future.

The thing with Harris is that he has a good vision, he's a good hockey player but he's not a strong boy. I wonder if we could send him to Laval because that would be ideal to work on his flaws.

 

[StCaufield]

Colby Armstrong is tough to listen to

 

[HabSgt]

I swear everytime I read GDTs without knowing the score, it seems like the habs are losing big.

SURPRISE!

We're winning!

Which means we're losing the military armoured vehicle race!

 

[Max2]

Love seeing Kovalev in that hab's jersey.Last star forward on this team

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Alright, let's follow-up a solid 2nd with a great 3rd. I would like to see Primeau get a regulation win here.
