GDT: Game 68: Habs @ Islanders, Thursday March 20th - 7:30 PM EDT | TSN2, RDS ----- Win or Lose tonight is the f*** Cancer edition of GDT on HfHabs!

[LaP]

Monty or Dobes ?

It should be Momtembeault unless we have two games in two nights.

Monty.

I like they way Heineman was eased in slowly until now but I would really try him on that second line instead of Roy. I think he would create a lot of space for both Laine and Newhook. He's strong defensively too and he's got a really good shot.

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Time to replace Roy by Farrell.

Any chances that Kapanen come back in Mtl instead of Laval after his playoff and take that 2nd line center role with Laine and Newhook ?

No. Farrell has just started to put it together. Leave him in the AHL at least until next season. Davidson wouldn't be phased if he was called up and didn't work out at first.

Heineman had less TOI than Joshua Roy so it might be time for a move.
Marty didn't want to break them up when they were hot but they are stone cold now.
Heineman would have more of an opportunity to use his shot with Laine and Newhook.
The shot that was responsible for the winning goal when Ullmark couldn't smother it.

If they plan on moving Heineman up, they have to send Roy down and bring up Davidson. The Evans/Armia line still needs another heavy component to it.

Well it's because Heineman was worse than Roy last game. The second line had many chances, not sure why people are so eager to break that up when and put in Heineman who's been ice cold for a while or call up Farrell who looked ECHL caliber for around 70% of the season.

Surely they can find somebody in Laval that can fit on that 4th line that is better than Roy. I like Roy but he's just not ready for second line duties right now.

I think you should make a long winded multiple paragraphs + stats appreciation post for Nick Suzuki on the main boards , I think it's time for people to eat crow , this guy is an absolute animal and makes Stutzle and Larkin look like little boys. I know it's alot to ask and pretty shameless of me but I think you are a great main board instigator

It is time to give this guy some love on the main boards....and I have been nominated to do it.

Since his snub at the 4 Nations face-off Nick has been one of the best players in the league leading his team into contending with a league-best record since the break.

Let's break it down...

11GP - 6G + 12A = 18 points

Season totals

67GP - 21G - 49A = 70 points

The guy keeps getting better as each year he climbs a little higher. See below.

Suzuki's ppg stats by age
20 - 0.58
21 - 0.73
22 - 0.74
23 - 0.80
24 - 0.94
25 - 1.04

Currently this year he is outperforming the likes of...

That's just RDS. What about TSN? And how many were watching illegal streams?

Not having a great today... needed a pick-me-up. This is usually my go to... good stuff

NYI has a rough schedule - with a L there you basically kill their last hope.

 

[Mudz]

Yeah we need to win this one in regulation. We can afford to lose the Saturday game after that.

They needed to go 2-1-1 on that "Home" stay. They already have the 2 wins. Just a point would be acceptable tomorrow. But a win is even more important than vs Ottawa.

If Isles didn't win the last 2 this game wouldn't hold as much weight, but if we lose in regulation they are only one point back with the tie breaker.

Thoughts are with Gally, who lost his mom to cancer yesterday.

When we win the cup in June I hope Suzuki hands it to Gally first!

Not to steal the spotlight but as some of you may or may not recall, I posted recently about a family member with cancer. They passed away last Sunday and it's f***ing devastating.

Can I get a f*** CANCER?

This game has "let down" written all over it.

Let's hope the players aren't as consumed by their big win vs the Sens the other night as fans are.

They seemed to be very emotionally invested in that game.

Yeah he's starting to get back to where he was before injury.

Must Win Game

 

[Habs Icing]

We need to destroy Long Island so badly that they decide they have no choice but to rebuild and trade us Horvat and Dobson

The whole island? I know Trump has been talking shit but you don't think this is a little extreme?
