GDT: Game 65: Montreal @ Seattle, March 12, 10:30 PM ET | TSN2, RDS, KHN, KING 5, KONG

[Pure Laine]

Love or hate Laine, that's what he brings. No way we're in the game without that bomb, and he makes a great pass on the second goal.

Pure talent. He's invisible until he's not.

As long as he plays with someone that can cover his flaws, we'll be fine. Once he has the puck in the O-Zone, he can make something happen.

He's like Kovalev, squared. Über talented, über inconsistent.

 

[The Great Weal]

Hutson didn't play the last 4 minutes, he better be okay

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

SumiLicious

They’ve won Michelin awards btw.

 

[HabbyGuy]

He's like Kovalev, squared. Über talented, über inconsistent.

I prefer Kovalev and it's not even close for me.

 

[Rapala]

No way in hell would I think we'd be leading after two following that awful 1st.

Pleasantly surprised.

Seattle apparantly have a sad differential in the second it was -22.
Kind of reminds me of our second periods last season.

 

[Michelangelo]

Dobes is flopping around more than Hasek ever did tonight.

I'm a supporter, but he's not ready for a regular rotation in the NHL on a contender.

Good thing we are not a contender yet

 

[Rozz]

Hutson didn't play the last 4 minutes, he better be okay

just heard that.. f*** I really hope hes ok... were gonna be outta the mix real quick without him.

 

[red devil]

That's just fn crazy. When was the last time we had a rookie go 50+ points on his 1st season?

I believe it was Kostitsyn in 2007-08 when he finished with 53 points. Gallagher would have been close during the lockout season. Caufield probably would have done it if Ducharme wasn't his coach and played him on the 4th line

Thing is Hasek was in perfect control of what he was doing. GOAT goaltender

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Slafkovsky was 100% the right choice at 1st overall. He's gonna be an absolute unstoppable force when he gets his man strength.

Yup, he's a f***ing beast. Wright is skilled, but soft as shit. We need Slafkovsky and we definitely need him to succeed.

He needs to figure out how to bring out second-half Slaf over the whole season, but Suzuki went through that, too. Often got off to solid starts, slumped mid-season then had a decent end.

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

I haven't found a good smoked meat in years, i'm due. I live in northern Quebec so everytime I go to MTL i'm trying a new place, but it's either mid or doesn't hit the itch

I usually hit Smoked Meat Pete’s as it’s on the way to and from TO in Baie Durfe.

 

[KevSkillz4]

Imagine drafting Slafkovsky and Hutson in the same draft.

Masterclass by Habs scouts.

 

[Habs7631]

I can't believe Hutson is my favourite player. He's giving me that feeling markov used to give me when I watched the habs 20 years ago. markov has finally been replaced.

Can’t wait to see what his next contract gonna look like this summer.

 

[Pure Laine]

Hutson didn't play the last 4 minutes, he better be okay

Didn't he spend a long time on the PP?

 

[Nedved]

I prefer Kovalev and it's not even close for me.

damn, when his helmet fell off and flowed in the wind as he costed around the ice. nobody did it better.

 

[Kennerback]

He's like Kovalev, squared. Über talented, über inconsistent.

They’re both inconsistent. Laine looks clearly worse than Kovalev at baseline. But he scores more goals.

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

Yes Laine sucks but his goals help a lot. It’s a conundrum.

He’s improving

 

[OneSharpMarble]

Slaf really likes shooting top shelf coming off the wing like that.

 

[Jurivan Demidovsky]

I love this young team! We haven't had young guns like this in for ever, + Demidov and Reinbacher! Future is bright

 

[HabbyGuy]

damn, when his helmet fell off and flowed in the wind as he costed around the ice. nobody did it better.

He also had a mean streak when provoked, I'll never forget the Tucker elbow. Good times!

 

[NewDef]

Glad I kept it on in the background. Finally some more balanced scoring and slaf with a beaut. Still don't like Laine and I'll die on that hill.

Oh, Laine has an Ovechkin level shot but sadly he's not playing that hard game his frame would allow like prime Ovi.

Seeing him lumber around is maddening indeed. If he played a more dynamic style he never would've been traded!

 

[the]

I prefer Kovalev and it's not even close for me.

To be fair, is there any forward that was better than Kovalev the past 20 years?

 

[HabbyGuy]

This never gets tiring.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Speaking of Schwartz.

Today I found an honest to God smoked meat place in Toronto. Dude worked at Schwartz’s for 15 years and opened his own place.

It was the real deal man.

That's all the way in freaking Scarberia.
