GDT: HFBoards GDT | 2/6/21 - Almost more games postponed than being played.

[PoutineSp00nZ]

They will start to get better. They just needed some confidence (the win was big). Habs gave that to them. I don't expect OTT to get run over any time soon.

For sure. The Senators were basically a brand new team going into this season, and the coaching staff insisted on playing struggling vets ahead of the talented youngsters. Now that the young guns are being allowed to play, the team has lots more skill.

There will be ups and downs for sure, but I think they'll be a bit better than the first 10 games of the season has indicated.

Now that Ottawa knows they can play a good game, I hope they play better against other teams..

Same.

 

[Lshap]

They’ve had moments where they have played very well even during the nine game losing streak but when they got a bad bounce or a deflating goal, they weren’t able to turn the game around and it snowballed. These last two games they have gotten saves they weren’t getting. They are better than they showed in the Van and Edm series.

This makes sense. So much of hockey is mental, and a young team like Ottawa is more prone to mental lapses than most. Once they figure out how to regain focus, the talent will start emerging consistently. You can see the potential.

Canucks blown out Ottawa, Montreal blown out Vancouver. Montreal loses and barely beat Ottawa.

 

[Mikeshane]

Good on Darren Pang for calling out a bad penalty that benefited the Blues.

 

[Eat The Rich]

Are the Habs really supposed to be "the best team in the division"?

I'm not seeing it at all right now.

Of course you aren't.

Half of their games have been against the Canucks who don't even look like they care to be out on the ice this season.

 

[Skolman]

Cassie... damnit

 

[Canadienna]

I wonder if you'll be saying this a month from now. I would bet not. They won't be in a Playoff spot by then.

Pretty bold claim.

Any reason you think their not a playoff team?

Let alone bad enough to fall off that hard in 30 days?

 

[Canadienna]

I want the bigger pot since you're obviously so confident it won't happen.

Ahh there it is, you actually don't believe what you posted, and therefore want odds on your prediction

 

[Uncle Scrooge]

Nice move by Keller, even more impressive how he's able to keep his mouthguard out in that speed while dekeing lmao

 

[Odie Cleghorn]

There's a difference between "took out" with clean checks vs. using your stick like a sword.

Not sure a clean hit sends the message. A cheap shot or a fight probably does. Unfortunatley Canadiens don't have anyone who can fight.

Things change and jealousy becomes a factor, best friends at ya wife’s house tryna mack her.

Keller has misunderstood the point with the mouthguard. Whenever I see him, he is chewing on a corner of it, with most of it hanging out like a cigarette. Isn't mouthguards optional, btw?

Brutal Penalty call in the st louis coyote game, refs are really game managing hard this year

They just dished out some penalties in this game, some here, some there. It was weird.

Hehe. Yep.

Ive watched a lot of hockey since the season has started, they have been so brutal in most of them, weird phantom calls when 1 team is ahead, or phantom calls to change the momentum of the game.

 

[57special]

That interference call against STL in the final two minutes of the game was simply bizarre. Some of the calls before that were soft, but that one, at that time...oof.

It's weird - it's almost as if they're afraid to not call anything.

Eventually someone is going to get high-sticked or hooked on a scoring chance.

No point calling silly interference or boarding on regular hits, that kind of thing.

 

[Critical13]

Anyone got a gif of whatever Chiarot did at the end of regulation?

I get that there was no pre season games for the refs to get back in it, but damn, i think the worst i saw was the toronto 7-3 win againts vancouver, in the 3rd they where just randomly calling penalties for both teams. I hope they fix there s.hit or its going to be a long year

 

[Mez]

Another dive by Stutzle . Someone is going to beat his head in if he keeps doing that.

Pretty sure thats just your fantasy....I dont think ever seen someone get their head beat for diving.

 

[The Macho King]

The best part was the indignant act heading to the box.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Can Montreal borrow Ottawa's powerplay..

f***ing phone changed it to powerboat.

If you got a powerboat can I borrow it ?

Cassie... damnit

Singh will make up for it, he's becoming very good at his trade.
