GDT: Game 80: Habs vs Leafs, April 12th, 7 PM | CBC, SN, TVAS

[Yukon Cornelius Habs]

 

[Tyson]

He's healthy scratching Heineman and Xhekaj again tonight.... stupid decision again.

I hope they lose 6-0.

Fkin idiot.

Not even watching. They usually make a change after a bad loss.

 

[Supersonic]

God

I can’t wait for Matheson to make a gross mistake again tonight that leads to goal(s) in the back of the net, and then the Eric Engels Arpon Basus of the world write long winded tweets about how he plays 28 mins a night

STOP TRYING TO SPINZONE THE FACT THAT WATCHING HIM IS SO PAINFUL

it’s too bad cause he must really be a nice person, but I can pretty much bet it’s always him screwing up every game when we get scored on

 

[habdynasty]

So much crying.

 

[Paddy17]

Are you familiar, at all, with jet lag?

How did you arrive at the conclusion that he's had a enough time to get over jet lag?

Jet lag is a silly excuse for the weak. It's not a problem if you know how to handle it. Jesus, you people must be jet lagged for 5 days when you travel to Europe or Asia?

 

[EveryDay]

Not even watching. They usually make a change after a bad loss.

Yeah our coach is a p*****.

I prefer Berube, he's an alpha.

 

[habdynasty]

Fake fans

 

[Kennerback]

The reason he's not playing is not because of the time change.

He also doesn't know the system. But being such a sharp kid, he could probably assimilate enough theory before the game.

 

[Hannibal]

You want the Habs to lose when they could clinch a playoff spot with a win?

When you have a stubborn coach as MSL, yea. We’ll be in the playoff anyway.

 

[Erika]

So what's the reason he can't be inserted in the lineup tonight again ?

He had some practices, met his teammates and got the taste of the ice. He's in shape enough to play. He left Rotenberg to meet Rotenberg 2.0 huh...

 

[Redux91]

Still doesn't feel real

 

[Habs]

Fake fans

until we get destroyed again with only 2 games left, and the team is wondering why they haven't clinched by game 81 with the softest team possible.

 

[Ezpz]

If we still had Monahan or someone similar, it would be an ideal situation for Demidov but he will have a tough time with Laine and Newhook because neither of them is playing a very structured style of game out there.

I think they would have circled back to Moneyhands last summer but I'm pretty sure he was set on playing with Gaudreau again. He took a pretty low cap hit with low term for a guy coming off a 60 points in 70 games season. Injuries were always overblown since he was pretty clearly still good after the hip surgeries before coming here and his injuries here weren't "ruin a player" type injuries.

Shame, definitely would be useful this year. Hage probably won't be as good as his peak but Hage will certainly play at a higher level 2-3 years in the future and for another decade.

Don't hate trading him but lament not bringing him back a bit. Granted he was extremely effective on the PP for us and wouldn't be eating those minutes here now. So we'd probably be chewing his ass for having 30-40 points. He'd also have been playing with Newhook and Dach so his +/- would have cratered.

But we're lucky Columbus were injured all year. Guys who are pacing for top 6 points/roles and missed at least 20 games for them: Monahan, Chinakhov, Jenner. Jenner missed 50+ games and came back to be a point per game guy. Voronkov missed about 10 games. I'm sure them being healthy would have gapped the 5 point lead we have.

After the last decade though we deserve 10 years of completely healthy rosters.

#freeXhekaj !!!!
The kid will be a beast IF we make the playoffs, he needs repetitions now .

 

[TheBuriedHab]

Isn't it better to get his feet wet tonight so he's more ready for Monday, a must win game? Your chances are already very slim tonight. That's if he feels good of course.

 

[Boyon90]

Demidov be flexing like this during training.

yvon pednault what a pigeon, confusing water bottle with cones

 

[Tyson]

Fake fans

Nope...frustrated, passionate fans.

 

[habdynasty]

The man

 

[Geecko]

Matheson looked jet lagged yesterday driving from Montreal to Ottawa. I highly doubt Demidov would have a hard time, especially at his age, if you ease him into the game. Honestly, I can't see the harm? Please?

 

[habdynasty]

Nope...frustrated, passionate fans.

Don’t watch anymore games

 

[EveryDay]

Is this a report or are you just predicting?

Because that would be silly imo.

They said Demidov was practicing with the extras for tonight's game.

Heineman and Xhekaj were on the ice with him.

 

[Habs]

Nope...frustrated, passionate fans.

For sure. People that care about not getting bitchslapped in all ends of the ice

 

[Supersonic]

our tard of a coach said no Arbs or Heinemen because they team was so good against the Sens. Wouldn't want to break up that line. Struble is still looking for his jock in the rafters, Savard is on Oxygen and Matheson is -73 for the year

I think you need to chill and look at the whole roster and that MSL is about to get that team to the playoffs

I want Arber too btw

 

[EveryDay]

F you loser

Hey be nice with MSL, he doesn't deserve that.
