GDT: Game 5: HABS @ SABRES Oct 23, 2023 – 7:00PM ET. RDS, SN

[EveryDay]

Matheson need to be better, he's fumbling the puck more then anyone.

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

I might be in minority here but I feel that Barron belong in the lineup so far.

It’s a development year. I have no issues with it.

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

I'm starting to see a bit of Carey Price body language in Suzuki. maybe that's just who he is and i never noticed before

I see a calm captain in Suzuki and not a hothead like Gallagher. Dvorak also look like he wants to retire whenever you see his face. Doesn't tell much.
Suzuki for once had a second center with him and now hes back alone and he's been in garbage rosters since he joined the NHL.

Can't blame him for that. Suzuki is a 70~ points center if we had a decent partner with Caufield. Caufield and Suzuki are the biggest threat offensively , teams don't struggle too much to block them since there is nobody else really dangerous.

Looks like he's frustrated about things not working. He seems to be a "screw this" type like Price was, instead of "pissed off/hits everything" type.

He is trying to do too much it seems.

 

[The Great Weal]

I can't wait to replace Gallagher with Roy on the PP. That's like getting dumped by your girlfriend but then you date a supermodel who ends up paying for your guys's trip to Cancun.

 

[overlords]

According to some it isn't... possible.

Asking a talentless roster to play 'positionless' hockey is like handing a music noob a fretless guitar. Good f***ing luck.

 

[Habssince89]

Suzuki definitely has a similar vibe as Price, and maybe CC has some PK in him.

 

[HuGo Sham]

Koivu, Plekanec, Suzuki, 3 second-line centers elevated above their station on a weak roster.

Exactly. The loss of Dach was truly devastating for an already thin and young top 6

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

holy shit Savard deflected a puck

 

[The Real Timo]

Look at that stellar defensive play by Savard. A stud

 

[The Great Weal]

Gallagher makes me want to pull my hair so much that I end up as bald as him

 

[the]

St-Louis coaching like an old dinosaure, nothing new under the sun, doesnt want the vets to turn back on him, effraid to lose the room...

I’m a fan of MSL but his constant pandering to the “veterans” pisses me off. I could understand last season since he was trying to ”showcase” our deadwood but most of them are gone and whatever is left is the garbage of garbage.

I had a small hope when they sent Armia down but he should have healthy scratched Gallagher for game 1 also to pass a message.

 

[Sasha Orlov]

He’s our David Desharnais, always getting preferential treatments. If it was any other player he would have been long gone but not the coach’s pet.

Desharnais was way, way, WAY better than Gallagher is right now

 

[The Real Timo]

holy shit Savard deflected a puck

YOu and I had the same reaction.

 

[HabbyGuy]

Guys is it possible that MSL actually isn’t the best coach in the NHL?

Is this even a question?

Who thinks MSL is the best coach in the league?

MSL is the best coach for our team at this time.

That's without question.

 

[EveryDay]

My god Matheson is shit....

 

[HuGo Sham]

More I watch, more I’m certain Hughes will trade Monahan, Pearson and Armia. Heinemann and Roy will get long looks by late winter.
I’d also like to think part of Hughes accumulating all these picks is to attach sweeteners to get rid of Gallagher next summer

 

[zx81]

I like RHP but he should go back with Evans and Ylo. They looked good together.

 

[Habssince89]

Asking a talentless roster to play 'positionless' hockey is like handing a music noob a fretless guitar. Good f***ing luck.

So instead you want the important young players (ones that have actual potential) to play a GRINE DEEZ GUISE type game in their formative years? That's exactly what's wrong with the habs for the past few decades. They need to grow into being a better team, which means there's going to be grinder players playing a style that isn't best for them. It's a slow purge of those guys but until they are gone that's what they'll be doing. To call the team talentless is simply wrong too.

 

[morhilane]

Anderson is so bad along the boards.

 

[The Real Timo]

Lol... Slaf checked the board I think... hope it didn't hurt too much

 

[Tyson]

I like RHP but he should go back with Evans and Ylo. They looked good together.

RHP is not a 1st line player

 

[SlafySZN]

I like RHP but he should go back with Evans and Ylo. They looked good together.

Yeah he doesn’t belong on a top 6 but we don’t have many players who does.

 

[The Great Weal]

Anderson and Matheson look like superstars in one game then beer league players the next game
