HF Habs: PWHL: Victoire de Montreal

[Naslundforever]

was about to mention the refs are staying out of it lol

 

[red devil]

The PK by Montreal reminds me of the Habs PK

 

[morhilane]

MTL PK watched the Habs PK and can't get the puck out of the zone too...

 

[Goldthorpe]

Good pace so far. I'm enjoying myself.

Poulin gooning it up

Also, what are the team names?

Team names and logos not decided yet.

No team names this season, they use the city. So it's Montréal and Ottawa.

 

[Naslundforever]

Desbiens rocking it looks solid

 

[morhilane]

Montréal is Montréal, can't complete their passes.

edit: also get stuck in their own zone a lot...

edit 2: So "full hits" not allowed, but some contact is allowed and I think the Montréal players want more physicality. ahahah.

MTL goalie has been fantastic. Happy this league is a thing.

 

[red devil]

For those who don't know a team that is on the pk and they score, then the player comes out of the penalty box

 

[MXD]

MTL D-Men (wait, should I say D-Women?) seem to have pretty bad puck skills.

True lol..

I’m not sure where contact vs hits lays. They let them go at it pretty much in the TO Ny game

 

[Adam Michaels]

Good kill.

Is women hockey usually this physical? Can't say I've watched much before.

It's usually no contact, this league added some contact. I heard the commentator saying hits aren't allowed, only physical contact to separate the player from the puck.

Been plenty of good hits so far, albeit to separate players from the puck.

I guess you don’t finish after the pass is off

translation: a short-handed goal end the penalty

Is bodychecking allowed in this league?

Sidenote: Montreal’s uni colours are interesting.

 

[SupRocket]

Poulin is trucking people

 

[Naslundforever]

great intensity!

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

Looked it up myself:

Per Rule 52.1, body checking is allowed when a player's clear intention is to play the puck, or attempt to gain possession. However, pinning or pushing into the boards to eliminate an opposing player is not allowed.

Ottawa started strong than Montreal. The fact Montreal had 3 penalties (even offering Ottawa a 5-on-3) gave Ottawa the momentum. But as the period kept on going, Montreal started to settle in.
