HFBoards GDT: 11/02/2024 | 11 Games today with many early Starts

[Boss Man Hughes]

Montreal is so bad. How do you get rolled like this by the geriatric Penguins?

Hopefully Hughes and Gorton are looking into that.

 

[KCC]

They're built better this year, just playing the backup goalie.

And they aren’t showing that they are.

 

[Pablo El Perro]

And they aren’t showing that they are.

They are a better team on the back end. I get hating on them, but I think they're better built for a 7 game series. Some nights, offense won't be there, but giving Stoli the net as the number one can make up for that.

 

[Bounces R Way]

They did the same with Guy Boucher last yeat who coachced maybe the worst PP I’ve seen with Ottawa in the 2017 playoffs. I’m pretty sure they would have made it to the SCF if that PP was anywhere close to average.

Guy Boucher coaches PP now?

 

[Pablo El Perro]

Guy Boucher coaches PP now?

Wasn't he the last trap head coach?

 

[Bounces R Way]

Wasn't he the last trap head coach?

Everybody still traps in one form or another but he was made famous for it when he was with Tampa. Flyers just stood with the puck behind their net several times and no one forechecked them at all.

I get the first, but just remember him as the 0 fore checker coach.

Yea that was Lavi, right? One of the funnier things I’ve seen in pro sports

 

[hatterson]

Absolutely pathetic officiating to give Matthews the only penalty there.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

If Matthews gets one Suter should have, too.

That's not a good call

 

[PatriceBergeronFan]

Absolutely pathetic officiating to give Matthews the only penalty there.

They missed the original infraction but his moronic from behind toughness deserves a PK.

 

[Leafidelity]

What a joke this league is

 

[All Mod Cons]

Absolutely outstanding reffing in St. Louis.

That's biased. Not even incompetence.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Berube needs to take the fine after the game.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

McCabe with some big hit sand this game is getting good

 

[All Mod Cons]

Leafs have had absolutely enough of the reffing this year

 

[HockeyVirus]

Leafs - Blues heating up

 

[Nothingbutglass]

Holmberg got tuned

 

[DANTHEMAN1967]

Refs suck.

 

[Leafidelity]

All because of bad reffing

 

[PatriceBergeronFan]

Berube needs to take the fine after the game.

Matthews shouldn't enter a scrum from behind as it de-escalates to crosscheck a player from behind, no?

 

[hatterson]

They missed the original infraction but his moronic from behind toughness deserves a PK.

Lol Matthews barely hit him and the blue dove like he got hit by a truck.

 

[PatriceBergeronFan]

Lol Matthews barely hit him and the blue dove like he got hit by a truck.

Clearly a crosscheck from behind. If you want to call it a dive then might as well be fair and call the initial contact a "dive" as well... which is was not.

 

[hatterson]

All because of bad reffing

Yea, that went beyond normal bad reffing and into the territory that should gets refs a few weeks off without pay.

 

[All Mod Cons]

Matthews shouldn't enter a scrum from behind as it de-escalates to crosscheck a player from behind, no?

Call the penalty on taking out Marner. A conscious decision was made to not call a penalty for an infraction on the Leafs.

They chose to call an infraction on the Blues.
