GDT: Kings @ Habs, Dec. 7th, 2023, 7PM

[Gravity]

Guhle will not be a #1 in the NHL.

 

[Kennerback]

Slaf is an absolute beast tonight. Wow.

But it needs to start translating to points.

Agreed. He always creates tons of opportunities. Some players with half the opportunities are more than a point a game. His finish looks Jake Evans tier. I hope I’m wrong.

And monty looked like a pee wee goalie.....................poke check easy.

I just pounded a massive mug of coffee and a tall can of Redubull within 30 minutes. I can't even put into words how hyper I am.

Going to be a loooooong intermission

 

[Tyson]

Sucks that it took 20 minutes and the game is out of reach already

 

[HabSgt]

Kenzie looking at Gally like a disappointed mother.

Yep just started to stream it two nothing great

Talbot is dog shit. No game is out of reach when he is the net.

 

[Rapala]

Guhle will not be a #1 in the NHL.

Jesus Christ Dude
Byfield catching him flat footed doesn't mean squat. He won't get him next time and that is why Guhle will be a #1 Dman in the NHL.

 

[Adam Michaels]

That Byfield goal happens in the neutral zone cause this team has zero about gap controls or slowing the opposition

That's what frustrates me about the Habs defensively. There are times they're aggressive and shut down any attack. In the next few minutes, they're backing up and giving the other team room to enter the zone.

 

[Habs]

Do you guys think Evans will win a faceoff ever in his career? How can you suck so bad at your job and still keep it?

 

[CharleyHorse]

Love how people say “Slaf will learn” and I can’t wait till he is able to put that puck in”. Uhhhh he’s been playing high level hockey for his whole life. I understand players miss open nets sometimes but saying that he’ll learn is f***ing hilarious

so you think this is it for Slaf then. Will bookmark for future reference

 

[Nicko999]

Why do you not care about that? It's better to look good but unlucky than bad and lucky.

I wouldn't exactly call missing an empty net "unlucky "

Why do I care? In order to win a hockey game you need to score more goals than the other team. It doesn't matter who "dominates"
If Slaf scores there, it's 2-1 rather than 2-0. Big difference.

 

[admiralcadillac]

Talbot is dog shit. No game is out of reach when he is the net.

He's got a .930 save %

Slaf looking great, honestly the team played well. Down 2-0 but overall pretty darn good period of hockey.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Talbot is dog shit. No game is out of reach when he is the net.

Keep in mind, he's not with the Sens anymore. With the Kings, he has a .930 SV% in 16 GP.

 

[Fenwick McCorsi]

So according to Francois Gagnon we have no more experienced coach helping because Marty does not want that. Interesting.

 

[Rapala]

Talbot is dog shit. No game is out of reach when he is the net.

Didn't he start the game in LA because in that one the game was out of reach enough that I shut it down early in the second.

 

[phillytennis]

Frustrating

Hutson will send it his way tho

Wow Byfield

It wasn't difficult for Byfield when you consider Guhle gave him a lane to the net and Montembeault looked like a deer in the headlights.

That's not making a difference for me. He doesn't produce enough offensively (doesn't help that he doesn't get PP time). He's solid defensively so a 2 likely.

 

[Kennerback]

Jake Evans has never learned to finish. Some guys never get it.

Lol Ovechkin and McDavid have missed empty nets too, it happens. Yes it's been happening too much with Slaf but at some point that will change.

And if Pearson scored from Slaf's great set up it's also 2-1. You're just arguing for the sake of it.

I believe Guhle was out too long and had no legs left. It happens.
Oh and no #1 in NHL history has ever been caught flat-footed

[Runner77]

C'mon everybody, let's discooooooo!

Any rich man can bet 1 million $ Kings will win tonight, despite having Talbot in the net. Why ? Because the team in front of front of Talbot, as simple as that.

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Panel getting question: Does NHL = No Hitting League.

Absolutely true and all the panelists agree. Players will wave at a puck rather than hammer the puck carrier to recover the puck.
