GDT: Montreal Canadiens vs Carolina Hurricanes | 7:30pm et | RDS & FS-C

[Demon Wolf]

Carolina announcers are surprisingly good.

For those of you who complain about our 4th line, Halpern mentioned that he's getting much more opportunities here than he did for the Rangers. Therrien to his credit is giving big minutes to all four of his lines. That's why you play real hockey players and not goons most night.

Those that complain about our 4th line have misunderstood what a fourth line is supposed to do. Their job is to go out there, crash and bang a bit and NOT get scored on. It's doing its job just fine.

I was going to say - their play by play guy is decent. The other guy reads from the official NHL notes a bit too much to be great, but at least he's not a raving homer like some can be.

 

[Et le But]

Desharnais has 3 or 4 shots in the first 25 minutes. He must have been reading this forum over Easter.

Probably cried a little and the Easter Bunny cheered him up with some chocolate, hence the good game tonight.

All 4 of our centers are playing well, who are we going to scapegoat?

...besides Markov apparently.

Alex can't seem to catch a jumping puck... Bad hand-eye ?

Didn't he always somehow managed to keep the puck earlier this season when the puck was always bouncing around?
Like his pass that lead to an GWG from Bourque?

It happens. Alex has some amazing hand-eye coordination. The things he can do with the puck on his stick border on the absurd. Did you get to watch any of his play in Sarnia?

Our 4th line is a great line, even if alot of people on this board don't admit it. I'm starting to hope that we resign Armstrong this offseason. He's been great and plays his role perfectly. He kills penalties, never takes any stupid penalties and can bring a little bit of offence.

I like this philosophy.

It's a must if a team wants to go deep nowadays.

 

[Comedy Central*]

I agree it seems like a big price to pay for a number 4-5 D

And 32, not 23 y/o #4-5.

Galchenyuk, that lazy bum. Also you spelled Spacegoat incorrectly.

Their colour guy is pretty generic but it's refreshing to hear an objective announcing team instead of the ridiculous homers that plague most teams in the east.

Emelin is getting deked play after play.

more than 20 this year and about 10 in his first year, why?

 

[Alexdaman]

I think there is more emotions in the entire vulcan high command than in Pacioretty's game.

 

[Tabarouette]

Bouwmester to St-Louis

 

[Mrb1p]
