GDT: Game 72: Habs @ Bunch of Jerks, Fri March 28th - 7 PM | TSN2, RDS

[MarkovsKnee]

If McTavish is available Hughes has to be all over it

Why would he be available? I don't get that one.

 

[eklund the clown]

Cry all we want .Who really expected us to be fighting for a playoff spot at this point?I sure as hell didn't.Half of the season we looked like a lotto team pick.When you look at a game like this playing the Canes you see we still have a long way to go.We just don't have the guns yet .The Canes have so much more talent than we do plus they work hard and have relentless forechecking .We can hardly move out there 5 feet that one of them are on us.Even by a miracle we squeek in we won't be around long.That's just the reality of the situation.

 

[Tyson]

Yeah, they seem to have him on some kind of rehabilitation schedule.

I would think they would have played tonight though

 

[Non Player Canadiens]

TSN is suggesting Crosby/Horvat/Barzal as the 2C. Literally any of us could go up there and get paid 6 figures to just talk about what we post.

what's stopping you

 

[LesCactus]

This season has taught that we can absolutely trust our first line to lead us. Just need to get the other 3 sorted out.

 

[HabbyGuy]

Also, Rossi.

Way too small, for us anyway.

 

[vokiel]

Xhekaj is playing like ass... He needs to visit the stands for a couple of games.

 

[NobleSix]

Why would he be available? I don't get that one.

I dont know why he would be but his name was mentioned on the segment sam was talking about

 

[Reimannsum1988]

Fabbro 1g 1a tonight for the Jackets. Still insane that the Habs didn’t claim him and also trade for Carrier. Would have changed so much.

It was utter madness to pass over him - free top four, cost controlled, right-shooting defenseman.

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

Surprised people aren't blaming Monty as much

Give them time.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

I would think they would have played tonight though

Maybe they didn't want to play him against Marlies goons.

 

[Tyson]

I remember years ago Guy Lafleur joking that the Habs had four 4th lines

 

[Non Player Canadiens]

idk about "absolutely", but Suzuki and especially Caufield took a step forward. Slaf similar season to last year, which is fine.

 

[JRichard]

You'd think after his goal Caufield would bounce back but nope.

Ersson gifted that goal.

 

[BullLund]

Monty is very serviceable as a 1b goalie. He's just overplayed.

 

[eklund the clown]

Give them time.

Well it's obvious Monty or Dobes in not the type of goalie to take us to the promise land.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Way too small, for us anyway.

Probably why he's available. It looks like he's asking for $7m, while Minnesota is more in the $5m-$6m range.

 

[Tyson]

Maybe they didn't want to play him against Marlies goons.

Actually it's pretty tame. Baddock is the only tough guy and is a clean player. I am over thinking it for sure.

 

[eklund the clown]

Monty is very serviceable as a 1b goalie. He's just overplayed.

And overrated

 

[Habs13]

Columbus tied the game... (oh wait didn't see Vancouver scored a 4th goal)

 

[Non Player Canadiens]

Well it's obvious Monty or Dobes in not the type of goalie to take us to the promise land.

have you seen the kinds of #1 goalies winning cups in the last 10 yrs?

 

[Tyson]

Xhekaj is playing like ass... He needs to visit the stands for a couple of games.

Is he the only one that deserves to sit? f*** the whole team needs to sit. But hey...let's single out Xhekaj

 

[Rapala]

I would think they would have played tonight though

If there are no issues he isn't resting there are no weird assed scheduled games off.

 

[HabbyGuy]

Probably why he's available. It looks like he's asking for $7m, while Minnesota is more in the $5m-$6m range.

He's a very good offensive player, he desrves a good contract imo. He's just isn't a fit here with our roster makeup.

 

[BullLund]

And overrated

It doesn't feel like anyone really rates him. He's league average. That's about it. Enough to get you the saves you need on a good team, but not someone who's going to steal you games.
