GDT: Preseason Game 5 - Habs vs Sens 7pm Est TSN & RDS

[Justin11]

Mailloux is not ready, obviously, but seriously our special teams are not either.

Mailloux will need more time in the AHL and that’s ok. Most D’s need more time for development.

Hope tuch makes it

Who's out there that can coach the PP? Can we get Kirk back here? Not that it was rocking when he left, but still better.

Hope tuch makes it

He won’t, at least not this season.

 

[Habs]

That wasn't sticking up for a teammate, it was just dumb.

Does he really think he's that secure in his position to take back to back game misconducts and not even be available?

Nah man sorry

he wouldn't do this if it wasn't the pre-season, I think its just fine. Who cares, the team is pathetic without him. At least he's showing some emotion, I'll take it

What a shit preseason, hey friends? LOL.

 

[Wateredgarden]

Roy doesn't seem ready but he might have to learn on the job. I still think Heineman is ahead of him right now. The skating is too good.

 

[The Real Timo]

And keep the likes of Barron, Anderson, Dvorak, and all the rest of the vanilla-flavors in the lineup. Watch the team crumble as the toughness oozes out of it lmao.

This. It starts with the management and coach. This is the culture. The creampuffness. Whatever the f they think that can accomplish in a violent predatory league is beyond me.

Nah man sorry

Nobody gives a shit about a pre season game.
That was a clear message that needed to be sent.
DO NOT TARGET OUR STARS

Nah man sorry

It's preseason. The score doesn't matter. As St Louis would say, there's a game within the game, and Xhekaj may have gone overboard, but to some extent, it needed to be done.

Xhekaj hurt his feelings ?

Better than keeping a guy who on any given night can leave your D shorthanded because he cant control his emotions.

Nonsense.

The second Xhekaj stops listening to fans like you and realizes he can be a pretty good Dman WHEN HE’S ON THE ICE, the better it will be for his career.

You want to show up for your teammate, do like Struble has this game.

 

[HabSgt]

once you learn about history it’s gonna blow your mind

I do know about history that's why I don't like seeing derogatory comments about groups of people.

 

[Grand Admiral Thrawn]

I miss Markov. When he left, so did tje PP in Montreal.

 

[Big Lurk]

Nah man sorry

Strongly Disagree. Xhekaj might be might be my new favorite player. Hoes mad idgaf

If you want to take liberties on our players during preseason and refs dont step up. Somebody gotta pay up. It is what it is.

 

[sampollock]

There needs it to be known
Don't hit our stars
Or one of yours gets the same

GOOD

 

[Habano]

send him down for sticking up for teammates.

This board cracks me up. Everyone complaining we're soft and when X sticks up for a teammate he becomes a whipping boy lmfao

 

[Redux91]

Hope tuch makes it

He will
He's on the team 100% next year
Should have a good lil year in the AHL this year, possibly some call ups

Marty loves him

That's a great illustration of it my friend.

 

[Ezpz]

Fine with what xhekaj did. How many frickin preseason games in a row are guys targeting our stars? Let the league know we can punch up higher because we don't have a hundred points superstar carrying us. Boys for sure love xhekaj as much as other teams fans hate him.

 

[Riddick412]

Andrei Markov

I can only dream

 

[417]

he wouldn't do this if it wasn't the pre-season, I think its just fine. Who cares, the team is pathetic without him. At least he's showing some emotion, I'll take it

Brother…he’s trying to make a team, his spot isn't locked.

Its just dumb, don't care how any of you try to justify it.

There's no way you can justify putting this guy on the ice with 2pts on the line.
