HF Habs: The official 2023-2024 tank thread

[Miller Time]

A higher pick means you get the player you covet, not leftovers, not that there is anything wrong with leftovers. Some of them turn out awesome or you may end up with your player anyway.

Yes.
Picking higher is better, and, not a guarantee of getting the best player.

Not sure why any of this needs discussion tbh... It's beyond obvious.

NYR's had 2-0 & 3-1 leads over Arizona, but Coyotes have tied it 3-3 end of 2.

Sens & Jets, no goals yet. 0-0 at end of 1.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Jets score first. 1-0 over Ottawa. Monahan with another point, a primary assist.

Oooop, Sens tie it!

1-1.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Crap, NYR's go up 5-3 on Arizona. Lafreniere with a 4 pt game: 2g, 2a.

Mid-3rd.

That's it. SHG by NYR. 6-3. 8 minutes left in 3rd.

 

[The Great Weal]

Someone save Keller from that dog shit franchise.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Oh Damn! Coyotes coming back! 6-5. Still 5 minutes left.

 

[Michoulicious]

GO SENS GO

...

I feel awful

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Cooley gets a primary assist to make it 6-4. Then scores 2 minutes later to make it 6-5.

And, Sens go up 2-1 on Jets late in 2nd period.

 

[Michoulicious]

An Ottawa win coupled with an Arizona win would be unreal, especially against top teams like NYR/Jets.

 

[A Loyal Demidog]

It's over. 7-5 for NYR

 

[MarkovsKnee]

ENG Panarin. 7-5. Oh well, Coyotes made it a game. Make that 8-5. Lafreniere gets the hattrick & a 5 pt game with an ENG.

Sens lead 2-1 after 2.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Jets tie it. 2-2. 10 minutes left in 3rd.

 

[red devil]

Ottawa 3-2 with 1:30 to go

 

[red devil]

Ottawa beats the Jets

 

[CaptainKirk]

Monahan missed an empty net for us.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Ottawa beats the Jets

Sens officially create some separation.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Yeah, Ottawa holds on for the 3-2 win. They move 2 pts up. Same gp.

Arizona stays 1 pt back. Montreal has a game in hand. Both teams have tough next opponents. Florida @ Montreal, and Canucks @ Coyotes.

Senators play @ Minnesota next.

 

[Rapala]

We stank.

 

[A Loyal Demidog]

Thank you, Ottawa!

 

[Gravity]

Alright Zona, we meet again. Time to pull a miracle

The battle continue with our main tank rival for a third time.

If we had lost to Colorado. The chance of finishing in the bottom 6 would have been 90%. We just need one more win from Ottawa and a lost for us to secure a bottom 6 position at the draft.

Panthers, Tampa, Toronto, NYR (b2b), Flyers, NYI, OTT (must lose for the tank), Detroit (twice in a b2b). Tough schedule ahead, I fully expect us to win 2 games max.

But the Habs being the Habs, we'll probably win like 5 lol

 

[KevSkillz4]

We need a Calgary W tonight against Los Angeles.

Yup, I fully expect that.

And the majority of Hab fans after we end the season "well" with those 5 useless wins, and have our pick fall to 11th overall:

 

[Nicko999]

Brady Tkachuk... clutch!!!

A double win. Ottawa separates itself and Jets keep losing.
