GDT: Leafs at Habs (Now, Saturday)

[OldCraig71]

This serves all of you right for wanting Drouin gone!

 

[morhilane]

I thought he was one of our better players tonight.

Slaf was one of the better player tonight (and well in the 3 games he played outside that first period). RHP wasn't there tonight thought and Dach wasn't as on fire as the previous game.

 

[Jaynki]

Has everything except good instincts

I fear you are right

 

[74 others]

Has Mailloux done enough to avert the next round of cuts?

Barron is taking himself out of the lineup. Mailloux has a chance I think.

 

[MadMslm]

Heineman was good, he shouldn’t be cut. They should see how he performs in a regular line up.

Feels like Farrell will be cut, had a good first and then couldn’t really show much more because of who he was playing with.

 

[HuGo Sham]

Do you think he is ready though?

maybe to live on his own and boil pasta

 

[Tyson]

and Gorton has no problem with that.

A proud fan base will start demanding more soon though. I can tolerate another year, maybe but I need to see some progress.

 

[Bottle Rocket]

Has Mailloux done enough to avert the next round of cuts?

They should send him to Laval. Let him start the camp there from day one. He needs to be dominant there this season to become very good with us in due time.

 

[SlafySZN]

Slaf was one of the better player tonight (and well in the 3 games he played outside that first period). RHP wasn't there tonight thought and Dach wasn't as on fire as the previous game.

Dach wasn’t on fire but he had an acceptable game anyway.

 

[Justin11]

He could but he won’t. He’s going back to switzerland.

And he should. I like him and the kid will be good, but 1 more year in the Swiss league won’t hurt.

 

[RationalExpectations]

Bad game. Hopefully half the team gets cut tonight.

It was the best Habs game in my opinion. Especially in the first period, it was the first time they managed to set plays in the O zone. Suzuki made a lot of questionnable decisions, same with Slaf and Dach but overall they played better than last night and better than vs OTT

Playoffs
2024, 5%
2025, 30%
2026, 60%

 

[badfish]

The thing I find interesting is that last year the only thing that worked reliably multiple times on the PP was having Suzuki up high on the right with Caufield on the left half wall and Suzuki could skate in and play off the shot or cross seam pass to Caufield. So I am at a loss as to why Suzuki is in bumper, unless this is just pre-season experimenting.

i think it's one more high pick and a trade for another elite forward ..
team should compete for WC in two years.

hugo has been wrong before

 

[SlafySZN]

And he should. I like him and the kid will be good, but more year in the Swiss league won’t hurt.

Exactly.

He can focus on getting better offensively, trying more things.

 

[RationalExpectations]

And he should. I like him and the kid will be good, but 1 more year in the Swiss league won’t hurt.

Yes far away from Burrows Robidas and Houle who should all get fired soon.

 

[morhilane]

Dach wasn’t on fire but he had an acceptable game anyway.

I didn't say he was bad. More like a normal day-to-day Dach. Could shoot more thought.

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

TBH, I liked Slaf's game a lot, he was very involved. He's still super raw and the execution isnt always there, but he's doing 100% better than at the same time last year.

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

Slaf was one of the better player tonight (and well in the 3 games he played outside that first period). RHP wasn't there tonight thought and Dach wasn't as on fire as the previous game.

Nick had an off night as well.

Caufield was our best forward but I didn’t notice him much in the third. Trudeau was good so was Kojavec and Guehle. I thought Slaf was good too.

 

[Justin11]

Yes far away from Burrows Robidas and Houle who should all get fired soon.

Hopefully sooner than later.

 

[HuGo Sham]

I also don't think RHP is a top 6 forward. his shooting % was off the charts in a no pressure situation last year. I'm not impressed right now

 

[Riddick412]

Can we start a GoFundMe to fire Alex Burrows off in the sunset with a trebuchet please?

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

Dach wasn’t on fire but he had an acceptable game anyway.

Yeah, I’ve seen him play better too.

 

[HuGo Burner Acc]

don't worry everyone, we're definitely going to suck this year.

Oh geez I was starting to worry

 

[Tyson]

Yes far away from Burrows Robidas and Houle who should all get fired soon.

Houle?
