Scheifele dirty ass play! Hes gotta get suspended for that.
Respect for Ehlers (at least I think it was him) trying to keep people from falling on Evans.

Big goal by Gally.
I noticed they didnt even put Gus on the ice for that Pp. In fact hes had very little ice since the first.
Exactly. That's really the only reason he is in so if they cant trust him there anymore, bring in ROMANOV!
-
Definitely a good start but the shorty takes a bit of steam out of things. Hopefully they can keep it
-
Bring on the Jets! Have this song playing on repeat. It really does make you feel good!

To be fair, the Habs should have had it in regulation. I thought they outplayed the Leafs and technically they put both Toronto goals in. Yeah, they sucked in overtime but it shouldn't have gotten that far. In that sense, it's fitting that Montreal won.
Perfectly put. Agree 100%. Hopefully we can reproduce game 6 in GAME 7!

Gustaffson/Kulak with 4:26/4:34 and never together ... dynamic third "pairing"
Kulak deserves more trust. If you're only going to play Gustaffson that much (2 games in a row) then Romanov should be in. At least a pairing of Kulak and Romanov you can trust out there together. Over burdening the top 4 for no reason.

Pretty good period by the Habs there. Would of been really nice to of gotten one of those early opportunities. Hope we can keep this up for the rest of the game but need to capitalize on our chances
-
Great play by Caufield to read that play and take advantage. Very happy they didn't overthink that 2-0. Guess we survive and get to see some fans in Montreal!
-
Very disappointed to still be playing but let's make some picks.
Tor - Hyman
Mon - Gallagher

We have a winner: Habsfan84
Habsfan84 predicted 27-22-3-4 for 61 points which was a pretty accurate. Like everyone else his prediction overestimated the Habs final points.
The team finished 24-21-8-3 for 59 points.
Habsfand84 predicted 4th in the division and 15th in the league.
The Canadiens did finish 4th in the division but only 18th in the league.
Habsfan84 has predicted a 2nd round loss so we may get by the Leafs.
Nice! I guess being the most pessimistic about the Habs paid off. Was hoping I'd be wrong but I'll take the win!

Hoping I'm right as well. Don't think it would be fun having to live in Ontario and deal with all those Leafs fans if they end up taking the series.

Don't really like that our first two home games are back-back. Kinda takes the home ice advantage away slightly since anything can happen in those. I guess home ice advantage isn't as big of thing this year at least.

Too bad LA isn't in our Division. Toffoli seems to do well against his former teams

One Year at $735,000
Pretty cheap deal for him. Good signing. Does he have a spot in the lineup however?

I have to say that I have trouble with the whole "Hall will create too many cap complications" argument. I mean, of course the deal has to make some sort of basic sense when it comes to dollar and term. But there seems to me something a bit perverse about arguing that we dare not add him because it will disrupt the cap structure of our FW complement. Let's not forget that our FW complement is middling at best. Not adding a legitimate top-line W in order to avoid disturbing a mediocre equilibrium seems like way overthinking it to me.
Like 'how will we be able to resign Tatar?' First of all, it is not clear that we should resign Tatar. He is a very fine player, I love his hockey IQ, but much will depend on his contract demands as a 30-year-old. And let's remember that he was complete fishwaste in the playoffs. Second, a lot of other things will happen between now and next off-season. Allen may be off the books, there will be bodies lost to expansion, who knows what all will go down. Not signing an upgrade because, y'know, he may cause cap trouble eventually just seems dreary to me. Sign the huge roster upgrade, sort out any further ramifications down the line when necessary.
It's not only next season. We dont have the cap space to take him on this season.
No doubt I would also love to have him but dont feel there is a fit.
-
Since we are not likely able to afford one of the big fish, would Galchenyuk make sense on a one year prove it deal? He has not been great since leaving the Habs and at this point knows he's a winger. He seemed to have most of his success with us so the Habs may be of some interest to revive his career (though Julien being here may deter him). He's someone you could easily slide up your lineup if injuries arise or other players struggle.
I know Bergevin would probably never do it but I think it makes some sense.
-
Less term and money than I was expecting. Good deal! You could tell through some of the videos the team did that his family was quite happy in Montreal. This deal proves it since he could of gotten more on the open market. Seems like they are pretty close with Price's family as well.

i wouldnt want Ryan either... we need a top offensive threat... to me only Dadanov and Hall fit that on the UFa market otherwise its trade front
Hoffman fits the bill as well

Could they have signed one for cheaper? Probably. Could they have signed one for one year though? Guys like Khudobin, Greiss, etc (Halak re-signed already) are going to be able to command multi-year deals, especially with the Seattle expansion draft looming. Bergevin's end-of-season presser indicated that he's concerned about spending big beyond the upcoming season with players like Petry, Gallagher, Danault, Tatar, and Armia all pending UFAs that will likely be seeking some sort of raise. The single year left on Allen's deal may be viewed as a positive here which is something that they wouldn't have been able to get with the top backups in free agency. This doesn't solve Montreal's exposure requirement for the Kraken but it solves a big need for next year's team.
My mistake on Halak although looking into it he signed for only one year. So it does seem possible to still do. Just seems like there will be lots of goalies available this year. To be fair though Allen is at or near the top of that class. In a likely condensed season the backup goaltender will be very important.

Looking at it more there is no way the NHL does not suspend him. Principal point of contact is the head, player was in a vulnerable position and the player made no play on the puck.
Praying that Evans is okay
