GDT: Game 48: Habs @ Detroit Red Wings 1/23/25 7:00pm EST TSN2, RDS, TSN 690

[BLONG7]

Patrick Kane is out of the lineup tonight.

We catch a break there.........

Thanks for your 800 games of service Gally, now retire

 

[Bigtrout]

Their PP is crazy good this year , and we always take the most boneheaded pens lol

Kane is out for tonight

I don't think I'm exaggerating when I say this could be a season defining game for the wings.

They have been desperately trying to escape this rebuild pattern for at least a couple years. If they lose today, they will fall 7 points behind Montreal which is the team that is currently right around the playoff bar. That would be a massive blow whereas a win gets them back in the hunt.

You have to expect the wings to give a maximum effort. If they dont give that, then there's a major underlying problem in that organization.

Habs better be ready.

 

[ahmedou]

It'll be Gally's 800th NHL game tonight!

It'll be Patty's 500th NHL game tonight!

 

[morhilane]

I see a game where everything is stacked for it to be a Habs loss.

Seems like every game is a 7th game in the PO. For the Habs and the Wings. We are granted, this is good hockey level and energy.

I remember fans laughing at me this offseason when I said the Habs are in the Wings, Sabres, and Sens mix and we will catch them fast. Where are they at now? Where you at nit pickers? lol. Even some in our own herd thought we were a bottom 5 team last year. NOPE! We accepted tank and traded Monahan. Played more youth. We were 8th or 9th last when we traded Monahan and we didn't have Dach. The Habs were in many games last year and I believe we had one of the most 1 goal games.

Screw Yzerman and his genius rebuilding! Wings are in no mans land for a while now

I do agree the Wings are coming at us hard. Habs are very aware of it.

East is one of the tightest we have seen in a very long time. It's going to be a race right down to the wire.

I wish that Hutson's will extend his assist streak to 10 games as NHL defenseman rookie tonight.

As we all know, Hutson's assist streak is presently at 9 games as NHL defenseman rookie.

As we all know, Hutson tied Gotisbehere's assist streak with 9 games as NHL defenseman rookie.

If we focus on the trap game enough, it might be nullified. haha.

I have this game going OT

Discipline is key tonight. Their good sequence was mainly because of their pp.

Plus, while it wasn't the sole reason, the late December 4 game losing streak which lead to Lalonde being fired started with back to back losses to the Habs. They'll be motivated to show they're a different team.

that is so key

 

[ahmedou]

Discipline isn't key for tonight only. Discipline is key for all our games.

Our PK players are getting tired for nothing on multiple PK. Games after games. Because of useless faults.

Our players gotta be more disciplined. Our players gotta stop with their useless faults.

We're the NHL team that got the penalty minutes of the league if I'm correct.

You are correct my friend.

Sens playing Bruins... bets that will be a 3 point game?

It'll be 0 point for Sens. And it'll be 0 point for Bruins.

Sens sucks. Bruins sucks.

 

[Redux91]

HABS arrive to Detroit

Lmao Evans wearing the Ohio state gear next to Dobes after losing the bet

 

[Apoplectic Habs Fan]

So Pez probably takes his penalty @ 4:37 mark of the first and finish with 4 minutes and 21 seconds of ice time

 

[Non Player Canadiens]

Lmao Evans the Wolverine wearing the Ohio state gear next to Dobes after losing the bet

hah that's great, nice catch. do we know what the bet was?

 

[WeThreeKings]

Lmao Evans the Wolverine wearing the Ohio state gear next to Dobes after losing the bet

Notre Dame, not Michigan

 

[schwang26]

I can't believe Pezz is back in, I just can't. The guy is not a NHLer. He can't follow the pace.

This is so freaking stupid.

It’s not like he’s taking a top 6 spot. The guy plays a few minutes, throws a bunch of hits, takes a penalty. Big deal. It’s not like they’ve been doing terribly with or without him. People make waaaaay too much out of this.

 

[HuGo Sham]

playoff hockey in January!
I don't have a great feeling about this one...

could be the combo platter from taco bell though

 

[Naslundforever]

I see they are playing in the US I suppose we’ll have to wait for Saturday’s game to hear the reaction to the anthem. Do me proud whoever attends.

Are you implying that you hope to see a negative reaction to the anthem of our neighbor to the south?
