GDT Game #32 Habs vs Wings 7PM Friday Dec 20 2025
sbhatt replied to DON's topic in Habs & Hockey Talk
Pretty good road game. Could have been a tad tighter defensively, but I liked the sustained periods of attack and the abundant shots on goal that resulted. -
Trade Barron traded to Nashville for Carrier
sbhatt replied to Commandant's topic in Habs & Hockey Talk
Happy to see this. Barron was a defensive liability. -
Good Lord can Laine shoot it!

I also remember Red Light Racicot, and after I read your comment this little voice in my head told me that Primeau is just as bad...if not worse. I decided to fact-check that little voice, and it turns out that Red Light played 11 games in his last season with the team and his stats were better than Primeau's Primeau 11gp 41 goals against, 4.70gaa , .836 save% Racicot 11gp 37 goals against, 4.44gaa , .850 save%

GDT Game #29 Pittsburg at Montreal 7pm Thursday Dec. 12

It's times like this that make me wish Marty had the authority to make them run wind sprints up and down De La Montagne in the cold until they puke immediately after the game. -

Typical Matheson being a liability in his own end. -
GDT Game #27 Washington at Montreal 7pm Saturday Dec. 7
sbhatt replied to Prime Minister Koivu's topic in Habs & Hockey Talk
About what I expected....the bigger, better team wore them down as the game progressed. I'm glad that Caufield got one at least. Matheson looked weak on two goals, and Savard looked terrible on another. Going 0-for on breakaways hurt. -
GDT Game #25 Islanders at Montreal 7pm Tuesday Dec. 3
sbhatt replied to Prime Minister Koivu's topic in Habs & Hockey Talk
It was great to see Laine score to get off to a great start...high hopes for him and that fantastic shot of his. Dach...ugh, the more I see of him the more I wonder how many more games it will take for him to get up to speed mentally and physically. He's still really bad. I agree with the Newhook sentiment; he's on line 3 when Demidov arrives IMO, and that seems to be where he belongs. -

Feels so good to see Caufield burying pucks. -

This is hard to watch. Matheson should be sat down for the remainder of this game, and Primeau should be sent down until his contract expires. -
GDT Game #15 Habs at tOrOnTo 7pm Nov 9
sbhatt replied to Prime Minister Koivu's topic in Habs & Hockey Talk
I've seen enough for tonight. Embarrassing effort level for a Saturday night game against a rival. -

TWO SHOTS....are you kidding me?! -
Blown opportunity for a win tonight; the top 6 failed to produce a goal on a night when the bottom 6 got the job done. This is disheartening. I really thought this team would be significantly better than they were last season, but so far it's not looking that way.

GDT Game #10 Seattle @ Montreal, 7pm EST October 29th 2024
sbhatt replied to TurdBurglar's topic in Habs & Hockey Talk
The more I see of Xhekaj's lack of development as he struggles, the more I think that he should be converted to a 4th line winger. -
GDT Game #9 Montreal @ Philadelphia, 7pm EST October 27th 2024
sbhatt replied to TurdBurglar's topic in Habs & Hockey Talk
We looked pretty good up until the last 4min or so. Glad Caufield got one to stay hot, but he could have had 4 tonight with a little bit more luck. I agree with the sentiment that Hutson should have far more assists this season, but has teammates who can't finish his beautiful set-ups. -
GDT Game #7 Rangers at Montreal 7pm Tues. Oct. 22
sbhatt replied to Prime Minister Koivu's topic in Habs & Hockey Talk
As bad as the score was, the Rangers hit a hell of a lot of posts and it probably should have been 10 against. Habs really shit the bed tonight. -
GDT Game #5: Thursday 17 October, 7 PM: LA Kings at Canadiens
sbhatt replied to tomh009's topic in Habs & Hockey Talk
Tonight's game felt like many games did last season; a failing powerplay, scrambly d-zone play, and a pop-gun offense 5 on 5. The silver linings were Hutson looking great for 30 minutes, and Monty bailing them out early on to keep them in it for longer than they deserved to be in it. -
GDT Game #3 - Saturday Oct. 12, 7 p.m. EST, Ottawa @ Montreal
sbhatt replied to GHT120's topic in Habs & Hockey Talk
Monty, Caufield, and Hutson stood out the most to me. Glad the losing streak to Ottawa is over. -
GDT Game #3 - Saturday Oct. 12, 7 p.m. EST, Ottawa @ Montreal
sbhatt replied to GHT120's topic in Habs & Hockey Talk
I see the same...doesn't appear do be doing anything very well. Hopefully won't need to rely on him too often this season. -
GDT Game #3 - Saturday Oct. 12, 7 p.m. EST, Ottawa @ Montreal
sbhatt replied to GHT120's topic in Habs & Hockey Talk
Monty looking wall-like. I would like to see less defending and more push for a 3rd goal in the final period. -
GDT Game #2 Thurs. Oct. 10, 7pm est. Montreal @ Boston
sbhatt replied to Prime Minister Koivu's topic in Habs & Hockey Talk
I wasn't. This is not based on just tonight, mind you, but is my opinion of his entire body of work at the NHL level. I don't think he's a strong enough backup to have cemented his position. I just don't see enough solid performances out of him to believe there's significant upside just around the corner. Management should actively be seeking to upgrade, because we do not want to play Montembeault into the ground...but we want a realistic chance of winning on the nights he's resting -
GDT Game #2 Thurs. Oct. 10, 7pm est. Montreal @ Boston
sbhatt replied to Prime Minister Koivu's topic in Habs & Hockey Talk
The heck it is. The team is playing badly, but 2 goals against were horrid...and you can argue a 3rd should have been stopped. Even if we just hang 2 on Primeau, it's a one goal game and there's still a chance if he had just done his job. -
GDT Game #2 Thurs. Oct. 10, 7pm est. Montreal @ Boston
sbhatt replied to Prime Minister Koivu's topic in Habs & Hockey Talk
3 soft goals. Before the game I figured they'd need 4 to get a point because Primeau was playing, but that wouldn't have been enough. Give Dobes a shot going forward. -

Primeau is not an NHL goaltender...this stupid prolonged experiment needs to end. -
GDT Game #2 Thurs. Oct. 10, 7pm est. Montreal @ Boston
sbhatt replied to Prime Minister Koivu's topic in Habs & Hockey Talk
They need to tighten up defensively tonight...very unlikely that Primeau has the sort of heroics in him that we saw from Montembeault last night.
