Unbelievable stat about Mike Hoffman — he has not been the recipient of any hit by opposition players from the start of the season. This indicates that Hoffman will avoid sacrificing his body at all costs.

According to Renaud Lavoie, he is the only NHL player not having received any hits throughout the league. :oops:

This is such a Mike Hoffman type of stat 😆

He's not the only player, he's the only regular. Which is still pretty surprising.

For those who are curious, Harris leads the team in hits taken and Dach is first among the forwards.

Feel like shit today... cold, flu, covid... whatever it is... Would be good to wrap myself into a warm blanket and watch Habs light up Fleury. And Xman kicking someone's ass.

It's Drouin's turn to score a hattrick

I've had a virus too and missed two days of work. I've basically been in bed browsing HF or taking naps.

Got the "new" cod. It needs so many f***ing updates.

Why would you do this to yourself ?
 
Habs in Minny tonight but you have to wonder -- when is the last time the Habs won in St-Louis? Also, Habs traditionally did not do well when facing big teams on the road.

But this edition of the Habs? They're unpredictable. Coming from behind to beat the Blues 7-4, who saw that happening? Who are these guys?

And to top it all off, Dvorak pots 3 goals in the 3rd period. Dvorak, who ruined a meme I had been keeping in my back pocket, thinking he might be sinking to the level of two other frustratingly inconsistent teammates:

Sorry Guy Fieri, I don't have another player whose name starts with a "D" and who sucks enough to be part of your Triple D franchise.


I was so convinced that Dvorak was a bland afterthought, that I had even imagined him as the inconsequential red stapler guy in Office Space:

But no, Dvorak had a coming out party of sorts. Still doesn't smile all that much but he remains a legit Devo honorary band member.

Something else happened in the Blues game -- the Habs PP produced two goals. We don't know if that's a one-off, but we did see from a recent Athletic article that Marty has taken over PP duties from Burrows.

Several had been wondering how and why Burrows was able to continue in his role as PP coach, given his lack of success both with the Rocket and on his 2nd year as Habs PP coach. Maybe this was the clue we missed ...

Or maybe ... could it have been ... this?

I get how Marty tries to put some players in a position to unblock and recover past success but maybe, just maybe, it's a lost cause for certain players.

Fortunately, not all players need prompting.

X always has something in store, even if it doesn't have to be used every game.

While X's identity has been front and center from the beginning, it hasn't been as obvious for one Kirby Dach. Several criticized him for an apparently lackadaisacal, peripheral effort, tantamount to a deep slumber.

However, it's none of that. In fact, he's been moonlighting as an actor in this popular series:

Oh I knew Dvorak wasn't a meme, he's been among our best players couple games this season.
 
I did a bunch of updates and one that was 46 some gigs and it now has to install ? Like why, I have the disc. Just f***ing let me play like the good ol' days
Yea it's dumb something about all the game data being online for some reason and the disc contained like 70mb of data
 
Denis Gauthier saying the vets playing musical chairs may make them unhappy and it could be a problem down the road. BooHooHoo.
If any of those guys become disgruntled to the point of affecting the room they will be sent packing, Stay the course.
Dadonov was traded for a guy who could not even skate anymore. Drouin was not selected in an expansion draft. Hoffman, if waived, would not be picked up... At some point, these guys just have to take their paycheck and look at what they are becoming as hockey players.

Although I agree.....it's still a reality that this team has too much forwards right now, which is a distraction for the team and a tough situation for the coach too.

I had a more seamless download/install experience, but when it came to navigating to the main menu I decided to give up and go back to old reliable: Battlefield 4.

New console games have truly passed me by it seems

He does have 6 hits this season though. He had 2 that I saw vs St. Louis. But, he's definitely good at avoiding them.
 
Drouin in for Hoffman huh. The guy with less goals than Hoffman but makes more. lol
