GDT: Game 37: Tuesday, Dec. 31st, 3 PM | RDS, TSN2 Habs @ Golden Knights - New Year's Eve

[Milhouse40]

3rd game in 4 nights, with travel in between....on the road and against the best team in the NHL right now. Looks like mission impossible here, even going to OT would be a huge bonus.

But yeah, who's the hottest team in the NHL in the last 2 weeks?

So let's freaking go!!!!

 

[the]

Just let me end the year with a Laine goal. I'm also willing to settle for a Yo-Elle goal.

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Vegas is the best team in the NHL, this could be interesting.

No they aren't. Florida, Tampa (at full health), Winnipeg, Washington are all better.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

We probably don't beat Vegas, but that's OK. It's the team's 3rd game in 4 nights with travel. Just hope they play hard and don't crash out.

If we can beat Chicago Friday even if we lose to Colorado & Vegas, this Christmas road trip is 3-3 (wins over Fla, TB & Chi, losses to CBJ, Vegas Colorado) and can be declared a success.

Also, they're in Vegas for New Year's Eve! Slafkovsky & Hutson are not of legal drinking age there, though.

The rest of the team:

 

[HuGort]

This ream is rolling since Laine came back. Feels good man.

I hope it continues. Not just a hot streak

Yeah, i spent new years eve in Vegas about a decade ago.

Interesting winters over there. 20 degrees and sunny during the day and a chilly 2 degrees at night. The old volcano at the mirage used to be a popular place on those winter nights on the strip lol.

Bouncer to Slaf: you can come in but your little brother stays outside.

 

[Conflicted Habs fan]

What will Laine say now to stir the Knights up?

 

[Runner77]

We’ll deal with his agent later.

For now, let’s enjoy this:

 

[Habssince89]

We’ll deal with his agent later.

For now, let’s enjoy this:

7th round pick and he's gearing up to get some real financial security for his family. Wouldn't be mad if he followed the money, but I think he might be a Josh gorges type who is a hab for life

 

[Bouboumaster]

Hopefully we destroy them

 

[Mudz]

Put Dobes in! We need a goalie controversy like another line of coke!

It kind of feels empty without it.

Imagine when Fowler will be there. Price vs Halak with somehow Théo still there.

 

[Skip Bayless]

We’ll deal with his agent later.

For now, let’s enjoy this:

He's nothing without Armia.

 

[Habs Icing]

Remember the traditional Habs-Nords games on the 31th? Those were the days. I had a big family and the fights among family members were legendary. lol

Do you mean actual fights or simple arguments?

If your answer is actual fights, I understand why you wrote "had" instead of "have".

 

[Rapala]

If we have the Balls to give Dobes the net we have the Balls to beat LVK.
Once again discipline is the key we also need Suzuki's line to produce.
f***Vegas GoHabsGo

 

[Lshap]

I'm sure a lot of you guys hate these afternoon games, but I love them. I've missed a lot of evening games because of rehearsals & performances, so, selfishly, daytime hockey is perfect for me.

I'd be thrilled with a point against Vegas. I want to see Laine back on the board and Carrier/Guhle shutting them down in our zone. GHG!

 

[Rapala]

July 1st later.

 

[OldCraig71]

This team loves day games so we might win this one or at least give them a run for their money. Hopefully Dan Robertson is on the mic, I love that guy.

 

[Tyson]

Obviously the Habs can't win them all but with that said...it's my birthday and beating Vegas would be a great gift. Also, win or lose...play well, play hard and show the league that the Habs have turned the corner and are headed to respectability.
No brainer...Monty starts with Dobes playing in Chicago.

Your ballet career going well, then.

If we somehow manage to win this one things will get very interesting for the rest of the month season.

Happy birthday! I'll send the traditional wish from one old-timer to another: Stay healthy!

You have to beat Vegas with a bend but don't break approach.
If we get down a couple of goals it might be hard to keep this new found energy going.

However If they take us for granted they will lose just like any other NHL team.

Seriously not many people have us winning this game including Vegas...
Let's use it particularly on @Tyson's birthday.

It's funny up until now I didnt think too much of aging but turning 64 seems to change that. Ugh

Yeah, but those shoes are killing me.

There's a lot to be said for confidence when it comes to developing young athletes. We saw it building this past month and saw it spike over the weekend. If these kids have a strong game today it'll bode well for what this roster can become.
