Slafkovsky Is insane tho.
Im on moms phone can I get pinned i was on white team and i scored in intermission game
SLAF. IS. NO. BUST. HOLY.
The fact that went to a shootout is. Big od a disappointment
C'mon you could do better . The Overtime was all Montreal. Not a single indication given to that fact ?
Having to win in shootout against a rookie goalie after leading 4-1, Tampa has some analysis to do.
TBL crazy game 🤓
Would’ve been an incredible comeback if they won in OT. Canadiens can’t seem to win in shootouts anymore which is whatever they’re a great team now.
Slavkoski with a great assist and two amazing goals. What a beauty
A point is a point. GHG
We needed this big win before the road trip. Johansson was lights-out and played great. The division is super tight so we gotta keep it going LFG Bolts!!!
Get rid of shootouts and put 5-5…… 20 min overtimes please. If neither can't score they both get 1 point each. Glad Montreal at least got 1 point. It looked like they would lose in regulation but they didn't. These 1 points are important. So means Florida has to win their 2 games while Montreal has to lose vs Florida Tuesday.
How on Earth is that not tripping on that third TB goal?!?!!!
We will gladly take the point. Thanks Slafzilla.
Slaf,Demidov,Kapanen they are humble guys and don't have problem to pass puck to each other to score goal! Slaf was just the 3rd wheel for Suzuki and Caufield,they never passed to him. Anyway, good game, Habs!!!
Great game by the Habs. Sometimes, the end result isn't indicative of who dominated the game. This was one of those games
Should be ashamed of having such biased commentary on the official nhl channel. Like the guy shouts on his life when lightning scores but when its habs literally no emotion just "scores 😐"
Slaf redeemed himself after that horrible backcheck on the 2nd goal
sucks, but i'm sure it was a fun game for everyone there. i'll take the 1 point.
MTL 2nd line is mint ❤
I’m a Tampa fan and the Boys were cutting it too close. How did we give up a 4-1 lead in 12 min. Like boys! 😂😂😂
Horrible one sided commentating it was embarrassing to listen to him calling the game, Tampa should have lost this game by 6 goals. Tampa Goaltender was incredible.
If the broken stick from demidov didn't happen, this game most likely wouldn't have ended up in a shootout
