Also, just waive Pezzetta. It's obvious, like Primeau, his time here is done.

If another team picks him up, who cares.

Call up someone for Laval if Laine can't go Monday.
Agreed. If he can't even be trusted in a 4th line role when someone is injured, there's no reason he should take up a roster spot. He's probably a great guy who doesn't complain, but when someone like Laine is out you need someone who could theoretically contribute something.

Ngl, Dobes looked a bit like Price in the shootout, especially that first save on Drouin where he just threw the puck back on the ice. He looks good man.

The guys dug deep, and the best players came through, that's good to see.

Slaf deserved to get benched, the first line looked much better with 7th rounder Jake Evans on it. Slaf needs to wake up, the team needs him the same way they needed Dach to wake up.

Also, I understand MSL rolled 3 lines, but why is it Heineman that ends up getting screwed?? He easily could've played in Gally or Newhook's spot.

When Laine comes back, I say they put him with Suzuki. Dach has finally woken up and shown he can drive his line.

In. The. Mix baby! GHG!!!
I would start using Evans on PP1 down low he handles the puck far better than Slaf at this point.

Dobes is amazing so far . What a start in the NHL. He looks intimidating in the net.

Gutsy performance by the guys. After 10 minutes I thought it was going to end in a blowout but the guys turned it around. Blackwood was also very good tonight.

The only negative thing was the freaking 4 on 3.
I don't know why we are more often than not awful in these situations.

Low scoring game but still entertaining.
Hated the reffing though.

Wins against Panthers, Lighting, Golden Knights and Avs on the same trip is unreal.

Too bad we lost the only 2 games we were expected to win.

It sort of reminds you svilovs for the canucks last year when demko went down. He was stellar. He is struggling this year because teams found out that he doesn't handle traffic shots very well.

Teams will be looking hard to find holes on dobes too the longer he stays up.

The Canadiens probably watched to much of Avengers during Christmas and decided to go after all the most recent Stanley Cup Champions like they're Infinity Stones..
Sadly we don't play St. Louis any time soon, though Washington is coming up in a week so that's another recent-ish winner.
