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

[Lafleurs Guy]

Dvorak will be a welcome addition as far as defensive play and possession goes

Okay but Dvorak isn’t Dach. And right now we don’t even have him.

I think player utilization is a big thing. If Caufield scores it's because he is good enough to create his own chances, we aren't doing anything to set him up or get him free

I agree. He needs to be with someone who can gain and maintain possession. If he was with a legit number one center and linemates he’s be even better.

With Anderson and Slaf we should be running a dump and chase line and forechecking hard to get possession in deep

We can do a lot o D things better. PP at the top of the list. But we’re just not a good team right now.

 

[The Great Weal]

Habs love taking offensive zone penalties as much as a fat kid loves cake

 

[Trabdy2]

Nobody can make or receive a pass.

 

[Kobe Armstrong]

Caufield 56 goals in 127 career games is impressive no matter how you slice it

 

[Tyson]

There we go.
Another terrible o zone penalty

Monahan...damn

 

[TheBuriedHab]

This is one of the worst hockey games I've ever seen.

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

We won’t improve this year. This year is going to suck. Dach’s injury ensured it. It is another rebuilding year.

As to what improves, our prospects will develop for another year. Roy will have a solid year in the AHL, RB and Hutson will hopefully progress and we’ll likely get another high pick.

It’s part of rebuilding. We got unlucky on injuries but it’s not entirely unexpected. That’s what rebuilding looks like. It’s what you screamed for for years.

But that won’t stop you from screaming some more now.

Why can't we improve this year? You can always learn . The habs been much better on faceoffs compared to last season. Not because you don't make the playoffs you can't get better. I agree for Roy but Roy needs a complete AHL season to be ready which is normal. There is rooms to learn even while losing.

 

[Habit11]

Don’t tell me… another Ozone penalty?

 

[HuGo Burner Acc]

WHYYYYYYYYYY

 

[HuGo Sham]

Gallagher on pace for 32 goals. Don’t @ me

 

[Habssince89]

Monahan knows he f***ed up

 

[Kobe Armstrong]

seems to me like we are in agreement

 

[jj cale]

Kill this one and we will win this game.

 

[McGees]

We’re number 1 baby!!

 

[Apoplectic Habs Fan]

Zero discipline.

At this point, its on St Louis. Enough is enough

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

You gotta admit our drafting is SUS and we will be spinning in the basement till that changes.

We would’ve drafted Bedard if he was available…

Maybe this year we get Eiserman…

 

[EveryDay]

Another 3rd period meltdown incoming.

 

[Habs]

This is one of the worst hockey games I've ever seen.

It’s pathetic and the coaching gets a free pass

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

Gallagher 2 goals in 2 games , McDavid injured for 2 weeks , you need a winger edmonton ?

 

[HuGo Sham]

Too bad Barron will have to sit

Maybe it will be Harris

 

[Non Player Canadiens]

This is one of the worst hockey games I've ever seen.

new Habs fan?

 

[HuGo Burner Acc]

You gotta admit our drafting is SUS and we will be spinning in the basement till that changes.

The drafting between 2019-2023 was actually pretty good. Last year sucked royally but 2022 was good so this administration has at least shown that they can draft well

@HuGo Sham

 

[Kobe Armstrong]

Gotcha
I can see that with Anderson maaaaybe
But Savard and Armia are GONE dude

How?

Why would anyone want Chunk or AHLrmia for 3.4M?

Maybe if Hughes does another Hoffman trade where he burns cap for the 2025-26 season
