Pre-Game Talk: Round 1 Game 4 : Washington @ Montreal Sunday April 27th 6:30pm EST

Contract year… scares the living shit out of me to entertain this idea. However the going word is he has great chemistry with the group off the ice, so that could have also played a hand in his new found determination

Before there was no emotion on his face. Like he didn't belong with the guys, the city, the team, go figure. Now he seems to have chemistry with the "guys", His body language tells "I'm with you guys". That means a lot if you decide to keep him or not.

 

[Soaker]

The NHL loved it they just did this to appease the poor ref who got mauled.

My emotions are spontaneous but I'll try to plan them in the future.WTF?

 

[Redux91]

It's clear mind games for now lol

But even IF Thompson plays well hey, he's 100% hobbled lol, make him MOVE

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Caps players will be all in for this game 4 - no way they want to go home for game 5 w series tied up

Pressure will be all on them that way, too

 

[The Real Timo]

He was doing it to Slafkovsky

I wonder how many wilson crying cutouts will be in the crowd tonight. What a clown.

 

[Forum93]

Since 93 prices have exploded on a ton of things. Tickets and beer at the Bell center is criminal but thankfully mary-jane is more or less the same as it was back then.

Those were the days, my friend.

 

[Natey]

We scored 5 on Thompson. Him or Lindgren doesn't bother me at all

That's a wild take but you're entitled to it.

This series is 3-0 Montreal without him.

 

[Catanddogguitarrr]

That next game will be crucial for the Caps. I think they will be smarter this time. Coaching staff will be the most "cold head" possible. The fightings can be a distraction, they will bring the best hockey they can just to make sure they win and forget the extra hits and intimidation. I expect to see a much better Caps team this time. Both teams can fall into a trap with the bullying and big hitting play. The smarter team wins the game.

 

[Habs]

I don’t know about him, but I’m much more worried of skating for a line change.

He’s a liability , career is over and would be a better coach than a player RIGHT NOW

 

[Karma Police]

That's a wild take but you're entitled to it.

This series is 3-0 Montreal without him.

I think we beat ourselves in the first 2 games. We could've won the 1st game and while Thompson had his say on it, We missed our chances, same as game 2 with Evans wide open net and some other missed opportunities.

Not saying Thompson didn't play well, he was great, but he wasn't unbeatable. I think we missed our chances more than he stole from us in those games.

Now? if he's at 80% coming in this game, I really doubt he'll be able to steal a game while playing injured.

Ya they wait until after the team that got bullied pushes back to issue a statement.

I got a Wilson soccer ball that I've been kicking the shit out of against the garage door since yesterday.lol

 

[KevSkillz4]

I'm 100% confident with Dobes. He always elevate his game when that's really matters. Since he play with Habs, he makes always great save in 3rd period or overtime. This guy is a gamer.

I'm very high on him since I watch him with Habs, I like everything I see from him. He is big, he is great behind his net to make great pass to his teammates and he is very agressive in all ways.

Good luck tonight Doby and Go Habs Go!!

The best hockey is when there’s hatred between the 2 teams.

True,when I play against friends it's ''friendlier''

 

[The Great Weal]

The NHL loved it they just did this to appease the poor ref who got mauled.

The linesman breaking up Wilson and Anderson looked like he was smiling. Not to mention that he's quite f***ing strong to be able to handle it that well.

 

[The Great Weal]

Yeah he was mocking Slaf who sounded emotional after game 2

 

[morhilane]

Doesn't look like someone who's at 100%. If he plays, Habs just have to force lateral movements for a bit to make him crack.

 

[Tyson]

Yeah he was mocking Slaf who sounded emotional after game 2

Yep this will backfire like when Ovechkin made fun of Halak shaking while drinking water in between whistles.

 

[Tyson]

My concern is how psychotic Wilson can be and his ability to do something dangerously dirty.

 

[OneSharpMarble]

Lost in all this positivity is how f***ing bad Matheson is been again. f***ing Jihad Mike.

It's wild how you fight tooth and nail to defend Laine who can barely skate and yet take a dump on Matheson who is being asked to play 25+ minutes a night.

 

[Miller Time]

Yeah he was mocking Slaf who sounded emotional after game 2

Mocking the 21 year old on the other side who is outperforming him considerably this far in the series is an interesting approach...

Hope Wilson doubles down and Slaf makes him swallow those crocodile tears lol

what events? f*** the league, more protection for scrubs like ovechkin?

 

[zx81]

Just notices... is the game really starting at 630? Argh

What the hell?
