Habs Win One in Detroit on Laines Powerplay Winning Goal

  • We sincerely apologize for the extended downtime. Our hosting provider, XenForo Cloud, encountered a major issue with their backup system, which unfortunately resulted in the loss of some critical data from the past year.

    What This Means for You:

    • If you created an account after March 2024, it no longer exists. You will need to sign up again to access the forum.
    • If you registered before March 2024 but changed your email, username, or password in the past year, those changes were lost. You’ll need to update your account details manually once you're logged in.
    • Threads and posts created within the last year have been restored.
    • Our 2025 light and dark themes were lost, so we are rebuilding them. Light theme is currently available, but work in progress

    Our team is working with Xenforo Cloud to recover data using backups, sitemaps, and other available resources. We know this is frustrating, and we deeply regret the impact on our community. We are taking steps with Xenforo Cloud to ensure this never happens again. This is work in progress. Thank you for your patience and support as we work through this.

Skipped the game for Christmas wrapping....Eggnog....and a little Christmas movie. Caught the highlights. I see a couple give aways by Hutson. To be expected. Beauty play to draw the penalty though and then the assist to Patty. Lucky deflection on that goal...but goals scorers are gonna score.

Looking forward to tomorrow night!!

GHG!!
 
Solid game by Carrier. He's a good addition to the blueline.

Montembeault was strong. We'll see if he plays back-to-back, I guess.

Hutson struggled tonight. He had a few bad giveaways, but that's going to happen. He's still learning the league & players.

Laine blasted that puck right through Seider's shaft. He's really strong on the boards, too. Upgrading Newhook with Demidov on that line .... :xbg:

Caufield on a 4 game point streak.

Congratulations to Evans on his 300th NHL game. He had a terrific night.

Nice win.

That chance for compher late in the game.... prime position and it felt like he was sitting there forever.

I mean the defense was in the area and I have no idea how they didn't pick him up. It was maddening to watch and a free goal if not for Monty.
 
Habs won this game despite Hutson/Matheson and the 1st line not being that good.

MSL will have to break Hutson/Matheson, or don't play them with the 1st line against top opposition.
First line had some good chances. Suzuki didn’t look as good as he was the last few games, didn’t have jump in his steps.

Wings rebuild is pretty pathetic. Only going to get worse as Larkin looks like he has already peaked
tbh they did not really commit to the rebuild they tried to win after Seider and Raymond but 2 players aint enough.

Maybe we need to trade expiring Matheson for a proper RD…
Pretty sure Matheson wont be here after the TDL 2026.
