HF Habs: Out of Town Thread: 2025 Playoff edition

[Redux91]

Rantanen in the history books

I'd buy that for 12 million bucks..

 

[CrazyBob]

Wayne Gretzky must be raging that a player managed to do the one thing he never accomplished

Maybe Avs should have invested to "Rent a Nen"

They had their own McDavid-Draistl duo and they threw it away

Demelo with the wrestling move. Lucky it didn't result in a 3 on 5 for the Jets

 

[Apoplectic Habs Fan]

Maybe it will turn but Winnipeg is the least impressive “best regular season team” ive seen

 

[CrazyBob]

That Tic Tac To play Winnipeg did was pretty sweet. Too bad they didnt score. That would have been an amazing highlight play

 

[sampollock]

How stupid do The Avalanche look now for not signing their big time stud
Dallas is just laughing

 

[sampollock]

Cats are doing trouble
Could be done in 5

 

[red devil]

Rantanen broke a Mario record

 

[the valiant effort]

All that scrambling around the crease and not a single Star trying to suplex a Jet.

#NotMyGameAnymore

I don't get why GM's in every league are trading away superstars for scraps because they're afraid of what COULD happen.

It'd be like if I traded Suzuki for Jiri Kulich because I was afraid Suzuki might get injured or demand too much money.

If you gotta move money, then move money. That's what Chicago did. It's not like they traded away Kane/Toews lmao (well Kane eventually, but because he was old, not as a cap casualty)

 

[Stive Morgan]

Hintz was there first wtf

 

[Stive Morgan]

Lmao those last 2 icing calls were total BS. Hintz won the first race and then they blew the whistle WAY before Miller was near the circles.

Bettman wants this to go to OT SSOOOOOO BAD

Yeah they’ll lay everything on the line for game 3 and have nothing left the rest of the way

 

[JianYang]

It's a team coming off back to back finals and back to back short summers.

We saw all year that there were knocks in the engine. Theres a reason we have seen only one team make 3 straight finals in the last 40 plus years.

I caught the 3rd period. Stars were playing with fire and are fortunate that the jets never tied. It just seemed like a matter of time before they blew the lead.

 

[WeThreeKings]

Surely the Leafs will continue to shoot 20% and block 30 shots a game.

 

[Runner77]

I don’t want to get into the specifics of the case as it’s ongoing and nothing has been decided. Just posting this to show the incredible stupidity of fans (hopefully the fan who responded to the tweet, did not mean this but if he did, what an imbecile):

 

[Quatre Vingt Treize]

Leafs will win the cup this year. They seem different

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Surely the Leafs will continue to shoot 20% and block 30 shots a game.

Well, if Bob keeps letting in goals like that 4th one. It'll be easy to shoot 20%.

 

[Tyson]

Rantanen is running away with the Conn Smythe at this point.

Then you got teams like Buffalo trading away superstars and elites for… reasons.

The Guentzel trade is another perplexing one to me given the Pens were still in their perceived window with their big dogs under contract.

Dubas did the same thing in Toronto when he let Hyman walk & traded Kadri. He's not a good GM.

His problems in Toronto: goaltending & D. His problems in Pittsburgh: goaltending & D.

Toronto fixed both as soon as he left. He doesn't know how to build a team.

 

[morhilane]

Im still confused why Montreal got rid of Max Domi. His second season was not as good as his first one but he was a pretty good 2nd or 3rd line offensive player at least

MB wanted Anderson.
