HF Habs: Out of Town Thread: 2024-2025 season

[morhilane]

Leafs are better without Matthews.

But he's their great Captain and will save the team! I'm pretty sure that was the message from Sportnet at the start of the season.

 

[the valiant effort]

I won’t be surprised if the Devils blow this game, but this matchup is still the perfect encapsulation of Leaf delusion

Hughes/Hischier >>> Matthews/Tavares now and future

Which leaves Marner and “Chillie” Willie “The Gamer” vs the field, but, sure, the Leafs are legitimate contenders again

Michkov has 27 points in 27 games

Leafs shots on the left, Jersey's on the right

How are the Leafs still in the game getting dominated. Stolarz is good.

Calgary has now scored 4 goals in a game (not including the goal counted for the shootout winner) ending a 25 game streak where they scored 3 or less.

Nashville is brutal and I don't see them getting out of the bottom 3 of the league

Maybe they need the electroshock from a coaching change.

All Jerseys shots were nothing shots. Stolarz did not make any mistakes though. Markstrom as expected did.

Stolarz has been incredible this year and only makes 2.5 million for this year and next. Have to give Treliving credit for signing him but man some teams need to get better pro scouts for goalies *cough* Colorado *cough*

 

[the valiant effort]

Stolarz’s legs are quick as hell yet that is where everyone is trying to beat him lately. I expect a Pierresque book will be out soon

 

[MarkovsKnee]

I can't believe Leafs freaking won in OT. They were being out shot 27-6 at end of 2!!

Freaking Devils!

 

[Andrei79]

Some of you guys are still complaining about losing Eller a decade later yet want to move on from arguably the biggest mistake in the franchise in recent history.

I think its because it has been rehashed 1000 times and I'm not exaggerating. There's likely even more posts on the subject on this board. At least the narrative now isn't only about Montreal, but about every single team that picked in front of Philadelphia.

I don't agree with the last part. It's about Montreal and Montreal only.

Other teams either had players from the same tier to choose from or were told not to draft him (Arizona).

 

[red devil]

The Predators just lost their 8th in a row, 3 of them were in OT or a shootout. They are playing some abysmal hockey right now and you have to think Trotz is going to do something soon. Either a coaching change or make a significant move

 

[Wats]

Since the vast majority wanted Michkov, badly. I'm sure we would see a 1000 posts of people dunking themselves on a daily basis if Michkov had a rough rookie season... Not.

Took a long time for people to stop bringing up Grioux/Fischer

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Yeah, McAvoy tried to take Perfetti's head off, which only drew a two minute minor. The Jets had a delayed penalty situation though, and still pulled the goalie despite being up 5-1.

About 45 seconds later, there was essentially a line brawl. Stanley vs Kastelic, Frederic vs Gustafsson, and Zadorov vs Lowry. All got fighting majors plus misconduct penalties.

Jets score on the original McAvoy PP to go up 6-1. It's now 7-1 Jets.

8-1 Jets.

Since the beginning of the season my experience is the opposite. All i see is people shitting on our own prospects non stop. You even have people almost shitting on Lane Hutson for god sake. You can see they are just waiting for Hutson to have 5-6 games without a point their knives are well sharpened.

The Slaf thread was unbearable at times because of a few people. Ironic they are the same getting all mad if you say a bad word about Michkov.

If we end up with a Fischer, Juulsen or McCarron kind of pick then it's fair for people to lose their shit over it, but if we got a good player out of this, then it's far from the end of the world.

Kinda need to wait to see what our guy bring to his team either way.

 

[the valiant effort]

If Will Smith fell to #5 and the Habs picked him instead of Michkov no one would be mad.

 

[HuGo Sham]

I suspect Winnipeg calls the Habs about either Anderson or Pezz after tonight. Just an inkling

 

[the valiant effort]

What's the point of your post?

My man @Paddyjack decrees that if you have nothing interesting or constructive to add to the 2024-2025 NHL Official Out of Town (Habs) thread:

Beauty hit!

Morgan Baron for Pezzetta?

 

[ReHabs]

Wake me up when they both play in the playoffs where it matters.

Imagine if Will Smith ends up the playoff beast. Unthinkable. Not with that name.
