GDT: GAME 51: DAL @ MTL | Superbored Weekend! | Sat. Feb. 10, 2024, 1PM -- TSN2, RDS

[Kobe Armstrong]

The powerplay looked really good with Newhook

 

[Redux91]

Damn the PP actually looked good

Just wait til Dach is back too

Next years gonna be fun

 

[overlords]

thinking someone would trade anything for tanner pearson was a nice dream while it lasted

 

[ryan callahan]

PP looking good

 

[McGees]

Every time I watch Matheson, he’s the guy bumbling the puck, missing the pass, losing the blue line etc…

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Slaf should have been aggressive there instead of backing up, but that's him rather being safe than aggressive. Something thar can be learned, but isn't a big deal.

PP at least looked good.

 

[Kobe Armstrong]

Honestly that was the best minute + of passing I've seen from the Habs this year, zero exaggeration either

 

[Sagikev]

Robertson played as a C last year.

His wikipedia page says he's a left wing ☝

Lol can't remember last season but he is mainly a winger this year.

 

[Kairi Zaide]

At the drop of the puck though? It kills the flow of the game and it is unnecessary.

But that doesn't make it a bad/wrong call if it was warranted by the rule book. (Just like a cop wouldn't be in the wrong for giving you a speeding ticket for going 10-20 kph over the limit on the highway).

The inconsistency is the issue and they will never tackle that because fans inherently don't want that inconsistency to go away (even if they claim to want it). Refs will never be in a situation where people will think they do their job right.

 

[Habano]

You literally quoted a lineup that had Hintz and Duchene as the top 2 Cs and said the Stars have 2 Cs better than our 1C.

I' even say he's as good if not better than any of their centres

He’s completely wrong. Robertson has never been a centre.

 

[overlords]

Remember when they used to fake the puck drop just to mess with the centers?

 

[Redux91]

Taking this many bad penalties is due to laziness which means you aren't trying hard enough

Oh trust me
The sooner he's gone the better

Someone just reminded me we had Dadonov, Hoffman and Drouin on the team last year.. 3 LWs we were dying to get rid of
Now I'm stuck with Pearson lol

 

[Sagikev]

He’s full of shit. Robertson has never been a centre.

Pretty sure he also was a winger in the Ohl haha

 

[Apoplectic Habs Fan]

Randomness or judgment. They call it when they feel like it because if they were to call per the rulebook, there'd be too many PP (even though players would adjust and this wouldn't happen, but that'd make the game sOfT)

So just poor judgment is what your actually saying as it impacted nothing

Fans have no problem if it actually had anything to do with the play especially when they "judge" clearer ones as ok

So great, you convinced me.

Refa just shit judgement

 

[OldCraig71]

Anytime is good as long as you call it every time there is inteference. And if they did player would stop interfering and the game would improve.

Yeah, and you would end up with high-speed pick-up hockey. Game management is the reason why a team with a 3-4 goal lead ends up losing on some nights. If there were a standard I would agree with your post but there isn't, it changes by the game.

I must be confused then. I thought I recalled him being a C. Perhaps I'm wrong.

 

[sheed36]

"Don't look around, don't look around, the wife watches every game, don't look around..."

He did take a little peek though. I mean they were RIGHT there so..

 

[admiralcadillac]

I know Caufield is a guy who wants to shoot but he killed the play there

 

[Sagikev]

First line is dominant again

The one consistency about NHL officiating is it's inconsistency.

 

[Tuggy]

First line very confident right now.

 

[tobu]

Loving how dominant the SlafColeSki line is becoming.

 

[The Great Weal]

Robertson played as a C last year.

Lol he's literally got a 0% faceoff percentage last season, why are you lying?

Asking refs to judge on whether an infraction had an impact on the play before making a call is calling for inconsistency/randomness too.

Not to mention that the rule book is pretty clear : Nowhere does it mention that infractions have to have an impact on the play to be called.
