I will assume with Laval so close they already know everything. Just wish the top prospects got the most time on the ice to improve. Xhekaj on 4th line doesn't do it. While he is a 3-4 liner in NHL, getting more reps down there would help.

I hate watching sports when I know the outcome. So Olympics is tough when they are 6 hours ahead.

Ok so felony charges are dropped. Suspect he will plead out the rest and come to some monetary compensation and this goes away? Just a hunch

From a good shot and an apple to abysmal d in our zone. Struble sheesh

I think I heard a soft FFS and get f'ing moving from Monty right now

Maybe they be forced to sit on the beach in a box and sip some sweet alcohol? lol

Maybe try some new personel. Create a box and keep puck outside it. ANything other than same old same old

When you pull a fish into the boat and plop them on the floor. They mimick the Habs on the PK. Just flopping around.

if its conditioning stint then its 4 games. If just sent down he can be there rest of year if I am not mistaken?

Eric said no chance for Laine tonight for what that’s worth

According to Freidman its 3 top 15 pieces. He also said no team will jump at that. Reinbacher a top 5. The other 3 are not. Maybe price comes down? I am not in the know

Agree. If rumours of 3 high pieces though are true, Reinbacher doesn't get us Thomas.

Exactly though Hage this season

And Freidman said it would take 3 high pieces to get Thomas. We got Hage coming

But then he is fine with sending out Matheson and Ghule who go -3? Xhekaj has played well this season. He makes bonehead plays just like the other 5 so I am not sure what to say here.

His name is out there for trade. I think that is the preferred option for Hughes

I agree. Find all 3 to do that during the games that they play. I also hate the "goals saved above average" because who is counting that? NHL teams do not use the stats available to us. They have their own. Shots, hits and give aways are also counted bizarre in the stats we get. end of day is wins.

I find the same applies to others. For instance I do not like any of the goals on Dubes last night. Lost his net on first one and other 3 went through him. Hard for goalie coach to stop that. He did make some great saves but if that was Monty, Mtl would be warm today with lighted pitch forks. lol

Way out of position. Not square at all. Lets go Habs.

He did not lay blame on defence. That was goal 3 for which he said he would like that back. It was the 4th goal which was a redirect off our defence I believe.

what was I wrong on? Did he change system? No. Did we have an answer for Thompson line? only Dobes. Our top line got some ice with the other lines. Thompson was +1

MSL will never adjust. He thinks his is the only way. Its all 1 line we have no answer for. Maybe though some of our big guys out there with Tompson?

I liked that shift with Hutson and Arber on his side.

Who was getting the penalty?

I get it was 6 on 5. They just cannot handle that 1 line. We need an actual strategy for that 1 line. Lets go

Sabres led by that #1 line. 6'6, 6'4, 6'3

Sabres getting a lot of the bounces their way

Not really the point. He had 4 great games after he came back. Dobes now has two. Everyone thinks he is the next Roy. He had some shaky goals last two games but team was great. And gave him 7 for the win. Love them both but you can't compare stats. A great deal has to do with how team plays in front

Now check the teams each played! I am not taking anything away from Dobes. Played amazing last 2 games.

My only issue with man to man is some games they are not doing it effectively and end up chasing guys around 3 ft behind. Thats when a switch to zone is required. And last game Evans line was on forever and an icing. Perfect time for 1 shift zone because they lost the faceoff and chased.
