GDT: Habs vs Drouin (and the rest of the Colorado Avalanche), Mon. Jan. 15: 7 PM | SN

[Skip Bayless]

I want you to show me skip. Tell me how Lebron isn’t the best

 

[MarkovsKnee]

The 3rd line with Gallagher-Evans-RHP has had some great forechecking shifts in this period.

 

[HabSgt]

Slafkovsky with 5 shots during the period

Good!

 

[Habssince89]

If Gallagher wants to stay useful he has to do the two things he's done so far tonight - disrupt the opponent and draw penalties. If he does that enough he'll chip in some goals but obviously he'll never live up to that contract

 

[Phenom]

Allen survived the 1st giving only 1 goal to the Avs and shots are tied at 15. Somebody wake me up.

 

[OldCraig71]

We got 16 shots in the first period! Moral victory.

 

[StCaufield]

f*** Lebron. Ray Allen was such a G

 

[zx81]

Not a bad period.
16 sog
Keep applying pressure, Avs will turn the puck over

 

[Tyson]

Shots were 6-1 early on for Colorado, ended 16-15 for the Habs. Entertaining period.

 

[StCaufield]

Must be the most shots in an entire game let alone the first

 

[Apoplectic Habs Fan]

The 3rd line with Gallagher-Evans-RHP has had some great forechecking shifts in this period.

If it was the fourth line and Gally made 1.8 million MTL would have something lol

 

[Adam Michaels]

Good job by Habs to hang with one of the best teams in the league.

 

[Tyson]

Cale Makar is as good as any player in the league, any player.

 

[HabbyGuy]

Shots were 6-1 early on for Colorado, ended 16-15 for the Habs. Entertaining period.

Yeah the way it started I thought we were headed for another stinker for sure.

 

[The Gr8 Dane]

I'm so happy slaf is a beast already we deserve it

 

[sampollock]

That is good to see CC only had one shot

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Well, after going down 7-0 in shots in the first 6 minutes, Montreal outshot Colorado 15-9 rest of way. Game became pretty even.

A lot of giveaways by Avs in their own zone.

Avs have the more dangerous offense, so I still expect them to win. At least Montreal is being competitive again.

 

[Skip Bayless]

Cale Makar is as good as any player in the league, any player.

He's Bobby Orr incarnate

 

[HabSgt]

Slaf has been dangerous every shift. My man crush is fully engaged. If he scores a hatty tonight, I'll switch my handle to waitin269.

You should do that anyway lmao

 

[teamfirst]

Galley you are clueless. Bednar is a bum.

Clueless, bum, garbage.......man do you love these words

 

[sampollock]

He's Bobby Orr incarnate

Maybe not that good just yet but he's good

 

[HabSgt]

Shots were 6-1 early on for Colorado, ended 16-15 for the Habs. Entertaining period.

I still feel it will all end in tears.

 

[Habssince89]

There's a noticeable difference in the DNA of this franchise. Maybe it's that any improvement on the dinosaurs of years past is a pretty big positive shift in terms of how this franchise is run. MSL is here to bring that change about, and I can see another coach reap the rewards after MSL gets "promoted" (ie fired like all coaches) a few years from now

 

[Skip Bayless]

Maybe not that good just yet but he's good

Nah he's that good. The only difference is he's not facing swinging doors for goaltenders.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

If it was the fourth line and Gally made 1.8 million MTL would have something lol

Yeah, agree. They would be a perfect 4th line. RHP is playing well & seems to help Gallagher on the cycle. He gives Gallagher the puck support he needs.
