GDT: Leafs at Habs (Now, Saturday)

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Best game played by the Habs this offseason. But they need to score.

You need the goalie to f*** up, or for the entire line to be brain dead to score this game it seems

 

[Gravity]

"We do a lot of things offensively except score goals obviously..." LMAO

That's what happens when you draft top 5 twice and don't select elite talent. You build for depth.

 

[Eco]

any guesses on your opening night roster?
mine is

Bertuzzi-Matthews-Marner
Knies-Tavares-Nylander
Domi-Kampf-Jarnkrok
Robertson-Lafferty-Reaves
Minten 1st call up
Rielly-Brodie
McCabe-Lilj
Gio-Klingberg/Timmins(who ever is healthy)

Where do you think you are?

Go home.

Who will regress the most from their big season last year:
A) Monty
B) RHP
C) someone else

Barron

 

[Mrb1p]

Norlinder shouldn't be playing in NA

We might well have selected elite talent. Too soon to say

 

[Redux91]

Ahhh the boys are just a lil off sync right now, it's normal

 

[SnapVirus]

This is why we need at the very lesst two other top5 OV picks.

When your first and second line. Cant score against the muthaphukin MapleLeafs 3rd and 4th lines.

We have depth. Now we need superstars.

 

[MadMslm]

Trudeau and Norlinder both look very good.

Feels like they both look better on the offensive side of things.

Norlinder seems more confident and hasn’t been bad on the powerplay.

Trudeau’s mobility is really good and you can sense he has offensive flair.

Both are overwhelmed defensively.

 

[Edgelord]

Any guesses on if we give a shit about Toronto's opening night roster ?

I figured it was relevant since we are playing each other opening night

 

[sampollock]

I've held out hope for Gallagher... I've defended him passionately and hoped he just needed to get healthy, but it's painfully obvious he can't keep up in the NHL right now, and it's sad to see. He's really having difficulty. » -Grant McCagg

This feels like peak Bergevin era where it would take us a whole week to score a goal.

 

[OldCraig71]

We aren't going to lead the league in goal scoring this season lol.

 

[CheldishGamibno]

jesus christ this season is going to be a mess

it's the preseason mate, in 2 weeks nobody will remember this game you're watching tonight even existed. It has no value to the upcoming season.

 

[abo9]

The negativity in this thread over a preseason game where we are outshooting the opposition 3:1 is hilarious

Same old same old.
Opposition has 9 shots, one of them was a 2 on 0.

Habs have 20 shots and a lot of them are muffins.

Its still a preseason game, but Habs outshooting the opposition isnt exactly indicative of much either

 

[habsfan891]

Clear interference no call of course

 

[SlafCaufield]

no fam

 

[Andrei79]

Trudeau and Norlinder both look very good.

Norlinder is skilled but he hasn't looked good at all.

 

[Mrb1p]

Ahhh the boys are just a lil off sync right now, it's normal

The boys have been out of sync for 87 years

 

[Ezpz]

We aren't going to lead the league in goal scoring this season lol.

it's ok we got an elite role player 1st overall

 

[McGees]

Barron

He was already not good

 

[SlafCaufield]

jesus christ they have a knies clone in Minten too

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

What did Ghule do to not have any PP time?

 

[Team_Spirit]

I've held out hope for Gallagher... I've defended him passionately and hoped he just needed to get healthy, but it's painfully obvious he can't keep up in the NHL right now, and it's sad to see. He's really having difficulty. » -Grant McCagg

He's not even playing lol

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Clear interference no call of course

What's the Habs pp going to do ?
