GDT: GAME 64: LEAFS @ HABS | Clown Show | Sat. March 9, 2024, 7PM ET -- CBC, TVAS, SN, TSN690, 98.5FM

Habs win it's a win
Habs lose it's a win

 

[TennisMenace]

I want this win and hopefully Arber takes care of business if he decides to fight Reaves. I don't think he needs to fight any of these 13th forward goons in staged scenarios but if he does I truly hope he embarrasses the cave troll.

I am not too concerned with the tank as I think that there is too much parity between slots 2-12 to really worry about it other than improving our meagre odds at Celebrini.

And great GDT @Runner77 as per usual!

I would anticipate AX to fall down again shortly after the gloves are dropped.

 

[The Real Timo]

Habs historically never had a good game right after a TDL. And first game home after a road trip has also not been kind. I don't have a good feeling tonight. Play Primeau. Don't let Matthews score 4 and don't fight Reeves. Also dress Pezz FFS!

 

[RationalExpectations]

Habs won t finish below 5th from last and above 8th from last. It would be good for them to end up with 72 points, which would be a small improvement compared to last year. I hope they play well, winning is a secondary objective.

 

[The Real Timo]

Pezzz better be in. Leafs were chippy last game against Boston. Don't care about the tank when we play a rival!

I have a suspicion it will be the same lineup.

[Rapala]

Do people forget that Reaves has already played against Xhekaj this season and he was INVISIBLE.
I expect much of the same tonight.

Or he will be looking for trouble. I think Reaves and Arber square tonight. I just hope it does not result in injury.

As long as it is according to code, right Georges?

Back to business eh

What about Pezz? Or we would rather Ylonen or Pearson?

 

[26Mats]

I'd like Ylonen to keep playing.

But, in a rebuild, Pez in for Pearson all day every day.

Makes total sense, you start your #1 on Saturday night against the Leafs

Refreshing not having to see Jake every 3 games

 

[Habs]

the boners at Sportsnet from Ron to Jen, must be epic today. Jen especially. Watch how they try and fluff the Habs up and make the viewers feel we are close to competing and they mention this 'rivalry' 300 times.
I hope to catch Ron's beautiful musings and I like how long-winded and drawn-out they are. A 5 minute monologue with references back to 1922, with no real connection to the game at hand, is just wonderful for the soul, at least my soul.

If Marty was smart he would play Pez, sit Ylonen and play KOVA. Beat this Leaf team down and compete physically.

I'm missing them one... which means it will be a fun and gritty game. Good for all.of you. Shite for me.

Enjoy everyone!

 

[GrandBison]

Leafs are pretty much set as the 3rd seed, too bad, it's fun to play trouble makers.

Yep that means they play the Bruins, a team they will not beat in a 7 game series.

Or they could be a good prey for the Panthers

All this means the end of the Shanahan era

This team isn't good and everyone knows that but I do find that they play a better game on the road than

There were rumors before the season that Maclean was out at Fignet but they proved to be false but there have certainly been changes. He used to be part of the Saturday broadcast, a Hometown hockey segment, and other broadcasts but he isn't doing that anymore. He's only part of the Saturday broadcast now and it appears as if his role has really diminished.

All this means the end of the Shanahan era

You mean, they won't walk it back one more time lol?

Ylonen won't be a Hab after this season which is unfortunate. He has been given plenty of opportunities but can't seem to put it together at the NHL level. He seems destined for the KHL or DEL.

He has played 100+ NHL games and hasn't shown he is an NHL player.
