      Yes and also what happened when I woke up was the lions lost to that kid who seems to be quite good
      Sad for Detroit it’s been so long
      But you can’t keep throwing the ball to the other guy sheesh
      Anyway we hopefully bounce back against the rags and here’s hoping Josh has enough to beat Lamar
      But I think the Bills defense against the rush is suspect so you better contain that guy cause he’s got wheels
      Anyway
      Hopefully today is a better sports day for CHester
      Go Bills

    1. It's going to be an economic shitshow on Monday with the Four Horsemen billionaires taking over. If the American people think those clowns care a whit about them, boy, are they in for a rude awakening. The pandemic will seem like a walk in the park. Buckle up folks.

  4. And yes, Jared Goff literally threw that game away yesterday.

    Go Bills and Rams.

  5. im a huge doobie fan also, but i didnt realise they were doing b2b this wknd! in that case, monty swiss cheese was the only option. so yes, u guys are right doobie woulda won that match for us 100%, but im not sure if even TFS did b2b matches.

    i agree with u guys this is a learning moment and when up a bunch, u play "prevent defence" . however.... if its necessary to still teach this, at the professional level, with the leadership we have on this team, then omg... we are in waaaaay worse shape than my worst nightmare.

    having said all that, vs the rags was one of our greatest comeback victories ever. u guys remember that? so i guess after saying all that i havnt said anything useful cause thats sports

    1. Beck played a contained game. Nothing splashy, but solid defensively and not out of place. More familiarity with his new teammates will help him place passes more effectively as time goes on.

    4. CHester9:51 AM

      Pez was a gamer and prob popular in the room but didn't quite have it when the Habs started playing serious hockey and mistakes mattered
      Too bad for him tho I liked him hope he has a nice landing somewhere
      So the ascension of Mr Beck has begun
      I see him being the second coming of Carbo or SuperPlexx or that guy that left for the kings
      The youth is starting to take over now, 3 solids on D with more coming and not counting Suzi Dactor or Hooker cause they're old we now have 4 solids on offence with more coming
      Future is bright

  35. That game tying 4-4 goal by Slaf was a great drive to the net. A great breakout by Fast Lane. Both of which have been discussed in the media. What is not being discussed is the extremely skilled play by Caufield to catch that pass and get a shot off as quick as he did. You need to see the behind the goal view, he accepts the one hopper off of his backhand, quickly to his forehand for the SOG and Slaf buries the rebound.

  36. Brian Wilde is onside with our thinking. The time is now to lure Sid to the Habs. He thinks it will take the 2 first round picks and 2 high end prospects (Beck and Mailloux). I still say they would demand DaCH instead of Beck. But it is Boy Wonder Dumbass, so who knows.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. The ONLY way that Sid will end up in Montreal is if HE demands it and I really can't see that.

      But, I'll play along. One 1st round pick (Montreal), Pitt 2nd round back to them, a 3rd rounder plus Logan, Konyushkov, DVo and Pez.

      Let's not forget who holds all the cards here. Kent doesn't need Sid. Pitt is trying to rebuild on the fly so they want NHL ready players more than picks. If Boy Wonder wants Beck I hang up.

  40. Most teams have 10 games to go before the break. Some as few as 8. A few with 11.
    Generally teams will have 55-57 games under their belts. With 6-7 games after the break and before the trade deadline. Habs will probably need to get at least 14 of 20 points before the break. THere are some tests in that span, but assuming the team continues playing like it has, it should be doable.
    I wonder if there is a trade freeze associated with this SMITTASG Cup?

    Keep the foot on the gas, the pedal to the metal, the foot on the throats of the teams around them and it will make for an interesting deadline and beyond. Haven't been this excited for the team since '21.

  41. I'm trying to not pay too much attention to the standings. All these .500 teams will probably keep playing the same pace. Just win as many games as possible and let the chips fall.

    Interesting to watch the tankage of the beaners and the large flightless birds
    Two debatable dynasties on the way down
    The birds are being led by dumbass and we know where he’ll take them
    Listening to our in house Sid fan club I wonder if dumbass would actually pull the trigger on that
    The beaners are another story they actually benched bradley the mongrel and have publicly admitted to a readjustment or some such word
    The smouldering pile of compost is clearly in decline
    Little mitchie hasn’t been signed jonny toronto is old and creaky and underpants
    Is off to Germany for a sex change
    Tampon bay is on the decline as well
    So makes you wonder who is on the upswing who will be our competition
    Who are going to be the next bunch of contenders

  74. Speaking of Slafkovsky, "Slaf" is a weak nickname relative to what we've done for other players.
    I know SiM has thrown LastSlaf out there but it doesn't seem to be catching on :)
    So follow this - Jurai, sounds a lot like Uriah. As in Uriah Heep.
    One of their greatest songs? The Wizard.

    So we could have Maestro (Hutson conducting the PP) and The Wizard (finding holes where none seem to exist like that goal last night).

    Just food for thought. Nothing wrong with multiple nicks, like many players before them have had.

  78. Beaner took out NJ's Markstrom last night. Very reminiscent of that scumbag Kreider on Price where he basically began the end of his career.

    The silver lining for the Habs on this is if Jake Allen plays 40 games this year (and NJ make the playoffs), the draft pick moves from a 3 to a 2. He's only played 15 so far, so Markstrom would probably need to be out for the season. With about 36 games left, 25 by Allen would be a tall order despite who the 2nd goalie is.

    ReplyDelete
  79. Hard to believe that KidG who became Lep (Leprechaun?) who is now just Gally, an undersized 5th round pick with the heart of a Lion will play his 800th NHL game tonight. I hope and pray he can play his 1000th game one day and retire a career Hab. Who is the last Habs player to actually finish his career playing for the Montreal Canadiens? The Pocket Rocket? Would Markov count since he was forced out the door by the small minded biceps bergy?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Tonight will be Game 48 for Montreal. That leaves 34 for this season so if Gally stays healthy for the next two seasons that would put him at 998 by thy end of the 2026-27 season and the end of his current contract @$6.5mil per and he would be around 35 years old. Would he sign a one year deal at a reduced rate to play that 1000th game as a Hab? Thoughts?

      Delete
    2. Heh, I was doing that math too. Hard to imagine him not missing a few games the next couple of years and ending up more than a couple games short, considering his history. In theory, with 2 more years under all of the belts of the greener players, this team 'could' be contenders. Having a presence like Gallagher in the dressing room and patrolling the 4th line with reduced minutes could be invaluable.
      He married a beauty from Quebec and they're expecting un Lep l'enfant (pardon my butchering of the beautiful language), so he could be enticed to stay for a good price.
      It's a tough one, because there just may be better options hockey-wise, but not better options team-wise, if you know what I mean.

    3. Lep came one year on St. Par's if I'm not mistaken. I dubbed him Lip after the character on tge US version of Shameless (all Gallaghers and all scrappy underdog types). Lip was the smart, tenacious big brother. Great series.
