I was on Twitter this morning reading some comments on certain Habs reporters tweets and one thing was noticable, gary galley was taking a beating and rightly deserved. Fucking leafnet is clueless about their personnel. What am I saying, it doesn't matter they are all leafool ass clowns. I know tsn is a big part of the sfu but their regional coverage is at least half decent.
Was thinking the same thing. He's such a stoic personality, I think he would have loved it, but also will enjoy just getting on to another beatdown of the 'nucks.
That's Missy Peregrym in the last photo. A sneakily hot actress from Montreal. Starred in things like Rookie Blue, Van Helsing and apparently currently FBI. I'll assume she's a Habs fan.
On Thursday, #Habs GM Marc Bergevin will present Shea Weber with a silver stick and a painting during a special pregame ceremony. Weber's wife and children will be able to be in attendance for this to celebrate the milestone with him.
First BBQ, how large is that grill you slam dunk down to describe what was at one time a trade controversy.
Missy Peregrym Yowsher
Now I have been given very confidential very personal information about the mental health of the Van couer Cunaks between the 2nd an thirds period. In respect I will keep it as graphic nutreul as possible. There was lots of fetal positions and tears, thats as far as I can go. The Coach tried to rally them to be better and they just asked him to keep them from going out the door for the third.
So we got Alain in nets Meat playing and Romanov watching from the stands... Which is probably a good idea this early in the season. The ceremony should be pretty good too.
OK... An overall good period. As per last night, I shall leave this in your hands boys. Keep the momentum up. Go Habs Go!Go Habs Go!Go Habs Go!Go Habs Go! Bon nuit and merci Moe. A prochain!
Toffee's moves and backhander were sick. The wrong Benn was just utterly undressed. Must be hankering for a spot on the taxi squad of his old team. --SiM
Pettersson's shot on their second goal was a real snipe. I know we like scoring shorties, but I think it would be wise to stay out of the box for the rest of this period. --SiM
What the hell is sn "expected goal?" I thought they only counted the scored ones. All these trendy stats like that and Corsi can fuck off. They all have one thing in common: they're pointless. Literally. --SiM
thats the girl from that rookie police tv show? holy crap!
what happened to doing one post/baseball series!? we will never see ice cream! =( or did you do this b/c this was bbq's 1000th?
memo to everybody: dont get too high, dont get too low. nothing matters until the 2nd season starts. remember that 10-0 start only a few years ago? like the M and StP said above, it will be interesting to see how this team reacts when things dont go well.
i know the kid Tsar wasnt in tn, but does it bother anybody else that the PP looks like crap. STILL?!? if its not a clear slapper from big bbq, its nothing. what i like/love to see is working it low for a x-crease tap in, or a one-timer from the 1/2 board. how did these things become impossible to execute?
you guys' thoughts about s. bennett? (he looks like a good reclaimation project. i like him way more than PLD. i dunno what to give up for him though...)
A good win again. In such a short season, every point counts but there will inevitably be a level of this game the Habs won't reach by playing the same 6 teams over and over again. the variety that you get from playing 30 other teams is what makes your team as well rounded as it needs to be...so I do worry about what happens come the post season. I alsways worry about playing the Sens too - regardless of how bad they might look on paper, they always bring their A game when they play the Habs. Let's hope the boys keep their foot on the gas!
As for Sam Bennett, I don't really know that much about him - was Meat being showcased for a straight swap or one with picks? Trading in-country is the only move that makes any sense - especially the later you get into the season. So I guess we'll see.
Sam Bennett had a really good draft year, scoring 91 points in 57 games. That really drove his stock up and the Flames took him 4th overall in 2014. He has never lived up to that billing. His best season is 18 goals and 36 points. You may take the +/- category with a grain of salt but he is always on the - side. I recall them mentioning during one of the games we played vs the Flames, their fans call him Playoff Sam, because his numbers drastically improve in the post-season. 13 points in 15 games the past 2 years and a +4.
No thanks to Sam Bennett and his $2.55M cap hit. He's only 24 and could turn things around but he is not a player this team needs right now.
Good shout Pad - The thing I suppose i that the Habs actually have a decent amount of good players. Most of the dross is gone. Look at what happened last night - The WrongBenn is still searching for his jock after Powerhorse pulled that"I don't even know what it was" move on him to score. Meat is disgruntled cause he can't get a game unless his agent whines and we still haven't seen Frollick yet. Never mind Poehling and others waiting in the wings and in the Uber. I seriously think Dano has screwed himself by not re-upping when the offer came. No way he gets near that amount anywhere else (or with the Habs at this point).
Which is a great way to ensure we all do...and low and behold, they need a morning full of "1st place Leaf" stories, so they decide not to update - probably won't until closer to dinner time just to be sure they can share the "Austin Matthews' lunchtime quiz" or some other bullshit...
It's updated now. While there make sure you click on the 'League' standings too. A certain team we know is in first place.
Then they have their leaf in 2nd. St Loo and Philly have the exact same record, all three teams have a puny +4 goal differential. I guess their team has more regulation wins than Philly and more regulation/OT wins that StLoo is the reasoning, because their team has scored the fewest goals of the three (how can be with all of that leaf awesomeness?!)
Hope the Canucks are really angry after the last 2 nights.
1) No to Sam Bennett, they don't need him. 2) Meat is going nowhere, he is D depth and the coach will rotate him in and out with Kaddilak and Tsar. He will be available to the Kraken when the expansion draft happens this summer. 3) I'm not worried in the slightest about this Habs team fading, Toffee and Andy are legit, along with Lip and Dish this team can fucking score. Last Saturday night was an outlier, a hot goalie which you will run into occasionally. 4) tsn website is a fucking joke run by leafool ass clowns, I don't use them anymore I just type in NHL standings in my browser and something pops up. Guaranteed if the putrid leaf had taken over first place last night it would have been updated 1 minute after the game. Same as leafnet.
All your takes here are right in line with what I see. It's a weird season in so many respects. Let me add that Dano is looking a bit off. I think he's bored facing the same opposition so much. Or thinking he should've taken the offer in front of him instead of listening to his agent. Beyond that, I sure hope Czar was only out of the line-up to keep Meat fresh, but it does make sense to get some live action in for everybody, especially considering there were no exhibition games. That they can afford not to ice the best line-up available speaks to the incredible depth Bergy has given his coach. Well played!
Bennett is not what the Habs need, but, if he can be stolen ... Dano is not handling not being on the 1st line well. KidA and Tuna seem fine. All new additions are playing great and everyone is buying into the fast forward motion. The Habs being good>great has always bothered the sfu, they will get worse. Go Vancouver Canucks !
@moe it's funny you mention the line # with respect to Danault. I was thinking about that last night watching Toffoli and Anderson rip the Canucks to shreds. Here's how I see it: Suzuki's line is #1, KoHo and Toffoli are #2 which leaves Danault, Tatar and Gallagher as the #3. Actually the last couple of games I thought the Evans-Byron-Lek line was generating more offence than the previous trio. I do believe that Danault is probably sulking that he has been surpassed by the two young centers. He should just accept he is what he is, a good checking center with a little bit of offensive upside. I think he is dragging Tuna down with him, he looks s little off as well. Gallagher is Gallagher no matter where you put him.
the entire line-up (front 12 + back 6) are really balanced. i cant think of a time they have been better on paper and that suits them just fine playing fast forward.
what i'de request is jabba rotate EVERYBODY through the line-up so as not to alienate/disgrunt anybody (including dano, meat, frolik, snowman, poe, commodore, gi joel, j. weal, delaurian...). that part you mentioned about needing him for the seattle draft is a good example of forward thinking.
again on dano... i dont know what his prob is. theres no shame in being the next carboneau
I agree re Dano and that Tuna also seems off, but getting better looks. Jake Evans is quickly becoming what Dano has been the past couple of years, a really gifted 2 way defensively responsible centre with some offensive upside. He will/can be a clear #3 centre if the Habs truly have the conventional line numbers like that. Dano just might find himself released to the Kraken if they don't bite on the Meat.
I agree Tuna seems to be dragged down by Dano. Dano is likely clutching his stick a bit tight. Couple of plays saw teammates feed Dano for what looked like sure goals. Sometimes its better to shoot and help the team.
So I got the $1 a month Xmas special at TheAthletic. Normally I wouldn't give leafstiffs like mirtle and the leafsycophants a dime ... anyways, like tsn, they are 'projecting' the next Team Canada Olympic team. Why oh why do they think morgan oreilly is worthy to be on that team ?
Dano has to take the 3.5 for eight or I am sorry Jake Evans who has no nick can replace him easily. He is no plekanaks Dont piss of the Tzar, he is a Russian and you got be culture correct and benCHing him for a capitalist move is not borsCH. DGMB did he ever have a plan lets trade away draft picks for playoff round-failed lets let my buddy develop the utes-failed lets get Alzner to play with Weber-failed But when the balls where so high he could taste them he traded for BBQ and the rest is history. DBMB has already won some hardware this year
Stormy and windy day on the east coast. Shoveled the 20cm before it turned to rain, so that's good.
ReplyDeleteHope we keep our power for the game.
GYFHG!
Anybody know when they will be debuting their blues?
I just got finished shoveling the same amount, thankfully my youngest guy was here to help. Raining now, what a effin mess it's going to be. GYFHG!!

ReplyDeleteHey The M... What do you tweet as? Follow me @noosebar
DeleteIt saddens me that BBQ won't have 21,273 fans cheering him in person for his fantastic career.
ReplyDeleteI am sure the Canadiens will honour him with a nice ceremony.
Was thinking the same thing. He's such a stoic personality, I think he would have loved it, but also will enjoy just getting on to another beatdown of the 'nucks.

ReplyDeleteSleep tight. Thanks go to St. Pad for this one.
DeleteToffee is the leading goal scorer in the NHL but the sfu will do it's best to ignore it. 'Cause it's not matthews or marner
ReplyDeleteHey curling tonight so just caught up on the DVR...
ReplyDeleteOoh that looks a lot like Johnny's goal the other night.
ReplyDeleteThat goal by Toffee though...holy hell.
ReplyDeletePretty good for a 3rd line left winger...
DeleteToffee's moves and backhander were sick. The wrong Benn was just utterly undressed. Must be hankering for a spot on the taxi squad of his old team. --SiM
ReplyDeletePettersson's shot on their second goal was a real snipe. I know we like scoring shorties, but I think it would be wise to stay out of the box for the rest of this period. --SiM

ReplyDeleteDish !
ReplyDeleteDish! Wings! GYFHG!!! --SiM
ReplyDeleteOfficially in first.

ReplyDeleteSo, uh,... when do we play the Canucks again?
GYFHG!!!
--SIM
CHaracter win against a determined Canucks team. A little adversity is a good thing.
ReplyDeleteNext two against a bad Senators team. Opportunity knocks...
ReplyDeleteNight FHFolks
Well said, gotta win games in different ways and you don't want a cakewalk every night. Don't take the hapless Sens lightly.
