Great job Josh!! Couldn't have been easy to host on your own for nearly one hour. If Habs win the division they get to play one of the wildcard teams with home ice advantage. Can't wait to see how we do in the next 5 games and then the playoffs. Go Habs Go and regards from Scotland!
Boston
Montreal Super Canadiens!!!
doesn't matter who they play they still have to beat them
Devils's GM has just been fired. If the new GM want to rebuild, why not go all in & get Jack Hughes. A big package could be made with players like Zharovsky, Mooney, Pickford, and draft picks.
Woulda been good if we'd recognized how tough ths rest of our schedule was gonna be BEFORE we threw up two stinkers against the Devils. We were lucky to get two points in those two games. Outshot 38-27 in the first game, had 8 shots after two periods in the second one. I don't wanna sound all pessimistic but that's UGLY.
Kuch is one of the best but not thee best on the planet. Just honourable mention
'N' on Pickford. HuGo will trade him the same way they traded Mailloux, Romanov, Kovasevic, etc. But hopefully not for absolutely nothing this time!! 🤞
BORING! It doesn't matter who they play. Any team that makes it will be hard to beat. Trying to position yourself to play this, or that, opponent is a losers game! Play your best and don't aim at any particular opponent until you know for sure which team you are playing!
How does gally play over lanie?gallys embarrassed himself out there…and him and bolduc on 2unit ppl they have 2 goals between them in 70 games…what the hell are we doing….
Don't trade any young prospect until we can see 1, or, 2, years of their play in the AHL! I am very glad that you are not involved with Habs management in any way!

The team always plays to the level of the opposition, which will hopefully bode well for them come playoff time.
What if Laine is in a secret lab ice rink deep under ground . And he is getting power skating and super agile mods installed . And he will be released as a secret weapon . This spring ?
Depending on who's healthy, I could see Laine playing the last two games if it's just to rest Gallagher. I'm not convinced we'll see Hage in mtl this year, I would replace Veleno with Texier. And Dach will unfortunately get injured again if he comes back…
2006 birth year is NOT an overager in the CHL which includes the WHL. Pickford is in his draft year +1 WHL season. If he played next season then hw would be an overager
Pickford with Matheson would be interesting as 2nd pairing and let us have the Dobson Hutson pairing
And go Reinbacher and Guhle as 3rd pairing , this is future
And really xhekaj or struble as the 7th D
We got to think cap hits as well when we are on our prime window for cup contention
Laine in if you jinxing us with injuries , no reason sadly
Veleno eye test wise totally see it , he plays hard , doesn’t let up and his position is better and doesn’t slack back checking … playoff wide id rather have the PKiller and shutdown
So that bottom 6 with Veleno , danault and Evans we have decent C or faceoff
Bolduc first to come out , then Gallagher … Bolduc rooting for you but you need to get better 2 way game or be hard hitter , shot wise I believe if you got the right centerman , MSL gave you a chance but you gotta adapt now
46:15 my wife likes Josh Anderson better. Lol
Somthing you never talk about which is a huge problem we have . 80% of the goals are scored by one line . The other 10% is scored by Demidov , Hutson , Kapenen . If we do not build a line that can score . Here is the list of Thank you for service …. Gallagher – Anderson ( How many misses can we swallow , cant make a play and always to nervous ) Kapenen is a lazy player and no wow factor – Scrubble , i would give one more season. because i see him growing into the team – – Matheson – Buolduc – Voleno -no use – way to many mistake and most goals are scored when he is on – Carrier lazy player – Bring up the brother they are fire together – Dach and Textier are great players and we love them . dach got to toughen up and stop getting injured but still better than all the players ecept our super stars . We need calm players that stop and thin k for a second to make plays to score instead of just dumping and praying for a hail marry this is how i feel about our whole team minus Suzuki – Cole – Hutson – Demidov – Slav . These five players are the only play makers . The rest of the team has one huge problem . To nervous – To brain dead – and bad stick deeeeeeker . They have zero game . Lastly , Those 5 players are the heart of the team and are the ones that got us to where we are . They need help because they deliver 95% of the time when we need them . Maybe we can try other players that can come through . I have zero compassion for the rest of the players . We are here to win , not to make sure not hurt players feelings… I get fustrated every game because i see this every single night regardless if we win or lose …
