He had a concussion two weeks ago so I give him a pass.
I would too but that's not how concussions work.

If he has PCS he wouldn't be playing. He's clearly cleared for contact, he should be playing harder.

And this isn't his first playoffs where he's laid an egg.

Everybody loves Pacioretty because he gives a good hockey-player interview but he's honestly a massive coward on the ice. Huge frame, doesn't check... ever.

It's okay - he's an elite sniper - but he's not meant to be depended upon.

is another small player MT can trade for next year, because we can't see that teams like ANA or PEG play so well with big players....

I don't think the Habs doctors have such an advanced knowledge of neuroscience. My impression is that this stuff is not super well understood.

Chucky should be playing with Eller and Patches with Pleky. It's too obvious since forever but this moron coach is really really stubborn and slow to notice this..

Pleks is the least skilled member of that line. Gallagher is just doing what his coach wants him to do, he has more skills that you'd think.


It's because of these guys we're still known as soft. They don't step up, they step down in the playoffs. It's infuriating.
Yep, even Phil Kessel went PPG in the playoffs. They need to dynamos offensively if they want to help the team go far in the playoffs.

Poor Galchenyuk, not only his development is slowed down by DD, but now he has to play on his wing.

eller is giving a good try, but will never be rewarded by MT

in fact MT will ask Eller, "do you mind if I give DD your icetime?"
