GDT: Game 33: Montreal @ Chicago: December 22, 8:30 pm | RDS, TSN2

[Don D]

Yup. Good comparison. He doesn't get walked as much as Breeze-bye did, but Barron falls a lot, doesn't really know what to do when things go wrong & hesitates too much when going back on a dump in in our zone, like he doesn't know what he wants to do with the puck.

It's possible with more experience his decision making improves, because that's his big problem. His ability to make quick decisions on the ice.

There's Barron flopping again.

2-0.

Barron wishes he was as good as Brisebois! Patrice played 17 years in the NHL and won the Jean Beliveau Trophy.

 

[Skip Bayless]

Barron is concussed

 

[MasterD]

Barron definitely having a bad night, and he's prone to these kind of mistakes, but I ain't ready to throw the baby out with the bath water. He's 22 and has very good offensive instincts. D is easier to teach than offence.

Just need good coaches. Not convinced we have that.

 

[HabSgt]

Can't trust these longed necked hockey players.

Can't think of many good ones.

The Staals ? Perry ?

They're like the outliers. Long necks are usually terrible players.

You want the tortoises like Marchand and Draisaitl.

GAME ON SHORTIES

 

[MXD]

Barron is concussed

... Or otherwise playing a bit scared. That's two big hits in, what, 10 days?

 

[bonneaug]

The boys are tired

 

[Apoplectic Habs Fan]

Cant believe this staff thinks its a good idea to watch Barron get struggle but also, constantly be ran over.

His shift needs to be skipped a few times

 

[the valiant effort]

Lol. I’ve posted before that I’m ecstatic the staff lives with Barron’s mistakes, but I do think the time has come to have a night off and watch a game with a bird’s eye view

 

[OldCraig71]

Gallagher with the Peewee level shot from the circle!

 

[Andrei79]

Just need good coaches. Not convinced we have that.

This team isn't fighting for the playoffs on the back of its roster.

 

[Redux91]

Justin Barron , more like Murray Baron , amiright ?

Lol ahhh Murray, I can never not think about him being the pylon unable to block the shot on Yzermans series clincher, one of my old favorite hockey cards of all time

 

[sheed36]

If you were a hockey player would you rather have a strong stick or a long stick? Maybe a good question for P McGuire.

 

[Tyson]

Barron is barely 22, maybe since the team is rebuilding we should not be so harsh.

I personally don't think he will be here longterm but you never know.

 

[Team_Spirit]

Pass the oxygen tank to Gally

 

[vokiel]

Armia stuck on the ice, like an injured animal.

 

[The Real Timo]

It is the most overused cliche but my grandmother can shoot harder than what Gallagher just mastered. HOly shit. THIS is NHL?

 

[MasterD]

This team isn't fighting for the playoffs on the back of its roster.

The team is fighting for the playoffs?

 

[sampollock]

Gallagher's useless

 

[StCaufield]

Who was that Patrick Traverse?.....embarassing

Love the reference

 

[McGees]

Gally will be remembered for disallowed goals, muffins to the crest and trying to catch breath on the bench.

 

[Non Player Canadiens]

reflecting back on the season so far, im just glad these games are still fun to watch despite the usual injury bad luck.

the youngsters are fun to watch (good and bad). i think the turning point was Slaf taking it up a level in the last few weeks

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Gallagher with the Peewee level shot from the circle!

He was dead tired, as per usual for the end of his shift. Think he was just looking for a faceoff.

 

[schwang26]

I still can’t get over that Gallagher contract. What’s this guy gonna look like in 2 years? He’s already constantly gassed out there. He has no shot at all.

 

[Deleted member 257557]

Barron is barely 22, maybe since the team is rebuilding we should not be so harsh.

I personally don't think he will be here longterm but you never know.

I like his potential but it’s every touch he’s shaky tonight, could use a breather no big deal

This TSN duo is overusing every cliche you are safe.
