Let’s be honest, he had a great period.

On a side note is it still too early to sign him up for Marian Gaborik’s Shooting Summer Camp in Bratislava?

Gaborik does have a summer camp for kids, but it's in Trencin

What qualifies as a “kid”?

 

[HabbyGuy]

I also wouldn’t use him for face-offs in the defensive zone, after the organ player plays anything by Beiber, during the 8:00-18:00 shifts of the period, during moments of crowd chanting, if the opposing coach is chewing gum, or away games.

If Slaf puts the braces back on, he might squeeze in

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Man was Matheson brutal on Dallas's goal. Dude? Come on ....

Nice setup by Slafkovsky on Suzuki goal.

Great to see Guhle go to the net on that rebound. D scoring again.

 

[Don D]

How is this already Stephens 14th game with us

Speaks to how effective he has been. You don't notice him. Great call to promote him rather than "mess up" a rookie by promoting him too early!

 

[SlafySZN]

I take back what I said earlier about that goal being all created by Slaf. Harris didn’t get an assist but he deserved one.

He got one!

 

[Rapala]

I can't keep up with who's on what line lol.

Best thing that has happened all season. I have no issues giving extra shifts to Suzuki Slaf and Caufield.
It actually seems like we have more talent than we really do. Spread it out when we aren't getting PP opportunities.

Not a fan of the Montreal women team jersey. Pretty ugly to me.

Speak for yourself

 

[Tyson]

I may be in the minority but I like Kovasevic. Unspectacular but decent.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

1 million per goal is decent.

Uh, it's actually $2.1m per goal. He's making $10.5m and only has 5 goals.

 

[zx81]

Speak for yourself

Hey that's another debate

 

[Mrb1p]

Who cares?

Right. He’s already logging heavy minutes in tough situations. Imagine if Matheson wasn’t here.

He wouldnt play more, Xhekaj or Struble would. Struble can handle it pretty well.

And we should care as Matheson has value. Why waste it? Its the same debate people had with Gallagher and Anderson and Allen and Petry and ...

 

[sampollock]

Start the period boys

 

[CheldishGamibno]

you know who I miss?! David Aebischer

 

[Mrb1p]

Their is NO REASON to overplay them when the team is going nowhere.

Overplay? Guhle is already drawing the toughest matchups on the team. The other two have played 2/3 pair for their entire NHL careers. The situation would literally not change lmao

 

[Non Player Canadiens]

nice lil set play by the D there

 

[sampollock]

Dallas need uniforms, these such

Shoot Guhle

 

[The Great Weal]

you know who I miss?! David Aebischer

Didn’t we just draft him?

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

He wouldnt play more, Xhekaj or Struble would. Struble can handle it pretty well.

And we should care as Matheson has value. Why waste it? Its the same debate people had with Gallagher and Anderson and Allen and Petry and ...

I’m not opposed to trading him. But the value has to be there. We shouldn’t be desperate to dump him. He’s fine where he is for now. Team is bottom third.

 

[sampollock]

This Dallas arena is not too far from where the grassy knoll is

 

[vokiel]

Speak for yourself

That's what he was doing?

 

[Mrb1p]

I’m not opposed to trading him. But the value has to be there. We shouldn’t be desperate to dump him. He’s fine where he is for now. Team is bottom third.

A team would pay up for him. When his offensive production normalizes, hes gonna be worth a low ~2nd again.

Good save by Motorboat
