GDT: Game 3: Montreal Canadiens vs Washington Capitals 10/15/22 7:00pm EST SNE, City, TSN 690

Those were vet tough Ds and Toffoli who has a much better track record

These guys have negative reputations

Kulak got a 2nd. Many on this board thought he was nothing more than a plug and a 6th at best with a good game here or there

 

[StCaufield]

I think MSL will need to start scratching Gally.

He's all effort, no skill at this point

It’s like watching someone who can’t swim get thrown into water

 

[Garo]

Yeah..

What worries me is not seeing any real flashes... of, well... anything...

I do think he's pretty interesting in transition, has some good passing plays that frankly two players max on this team can do. He's thinking a lot though, and his strengths don't actually work well with his linemates on top of it.

Like, look at Detroit last night, and put him with Rasmussen and Soderblom. You would get way more interesting results because they play to his style.

 

[Tuggy]

I'm hoping they'll try to switch up the lines at some point.

I'd like to see Slafkovsky away from Gallagher. He's a blackhole now.

 

[Maliki2]

I know this board loves to bash on Drouin, but I like the way he's been playing so far.

Seems much more present in this game.

Are you kidding me? Just stop. Dude has sucked for years.

 

[MasterD]

Because Bergevin was an overly sentimental mf

That’s a big part of it, but doesn’t explain Hoffman… and Dadonov and Monahan…

I mean, I understand. But I don’t understand.

 

[Milhouse40]

Hoffman, Drouin and Dadanov are so bad

15.5m

 

[c3z4r]

Savard with the snipe, now we're awaiting the clapper

Hoffman was signed by Bergevin

Doesn’t matter what we thought, it’s what he brought back in his trade. Thanks Kulak!

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Slaf, yeah, just don't pass it to Gallagher ...

Yeah, I'm def most impressed with his passing thus far.

for the record, I am not saying he won't be an offensive dynamo in a few years, but he def needs time....

 

[Treb]

Yes, the OHL talk is ridiculous. You won't make me think otherwise.

Sub-optimal IMO, but a lot less ridiculous than your take.

I think he would learn better in the AHL than in the OHL, but a year in the OHL wouldn't be wasted. It does have the similar downside I listed for Europe.

How many soft forwards were traded for big returns at deadline?

D are always hot commodities

Your hate bias is why everyone hates to play for Montreal. He’s been good and a hair under 50 points per season over the last 3 or 4 years. Yet you say zero about Anderson

 

[Maliki2]

Slaf needs to score...he has been bad....move him down.

That's my point entirely. Doesn't matter what we think. Just matters what other NHL GMs think

 

[SlafySZN]

Slaf needs to score...he has been bad....move him down.

He hasn’t been bad.

You try and play when your linemate can’t make a pass or accept a pass.

You're saying Drouin has been good? Just stop it's embarrassing at this point.

Gally and shots to the logo

 

[sheed36]

How about Gallagher and "Shot right in the Crest"
