I agree with you I just hate Torts.
-
1 coach does. John Tortorella benched Ryan Johanssen and then torched him in the media. In Torts first game behind the bench after Todd Richards was fired. He did the same to Pacioretty in his first game with team USA.
-
Therrien was asked about this. He said they arent evaluating based on points, and are very impressed with Artturi's game.
-
Didn't look like a pass to McCarron, looked like he saw Carr there. Pass never touched mac

The McDonagh/Gomez deal is still brought up from time to time, and its 7 years later now.... Halak/Price is brought up and its been 6 years for that one. Yeah, i think a couple months here is asking a lot for people not to bring up this controversial move (And I say controversial cause the opinions on it differ so wildly).
-
Thoughts Lehkonen didn't have his best game of the pre-season... but he was still the best of all the forwards competing for that spot. Sergachev is ready from an offensive standpoint, is not ready defensively. I think he should go to Windsor. Pateryn should be the #6 and Redmond the #7 Carr was very quiet and uninspiring before the great shot late. Beaulieu didn't help his cause for top 4 taking a bunch of penalties. Before camp i thought Audette was an ECHLer, he may have a pretty big role in St. John's. McCarron needs time in St. John's. It may not be a lot of time, but he needs some AHL time. Ghetto would be my 13th forward, i don't think he's good enough to be a regular. Addison should go back to junior as an overager. Not even AHL ready yet. Condon might not even be the number 3 guy. I want to see more of Lindgren. Scherbak stunk, i have to agree with Therrien.

Of course DD made the great pass to tie it up.... Carr with a great shot too.
-
Yeah that was the play I was talking about.
-
I missed the first period. He's looked okay in the second, but also got beat by Matthews pretty badly once. Thats the area he needs work.
-
Actually he wanted #6 but gave it up for Shea Weber.
-
I'm guilty of saying pre-season games are meaningless for the veterans. However I didn't say anything about PK scoring a goal in pre-season cause it means nothing. Maybe he's combining the two of us. Dunno.
-
No big surprises.... Glad to see they aren't even pretending that Farnham is an NHLer.
-
Good thing the vet minimum rules were removed this year, cause that Habs lineup doesn't meet the requirement (or even come close). I think I count 5 NHLers.

100% correct Add in the fact that Pleks already has 6 highly competitive World Cup games (3 pre-tourney) under his belt, and there is even more incentive not to try hard. -
Desharnais, Condon, 2nd

Doughty and Pietrangelo both had really rough nights.

Suspension Shaw suspended for three preseason games
Commandant replied to dlbalr's topic in Habs & Hockey Talk
I don't like the hit I think its a little much to say that one hit is going to define his career and override everything we've already seen, which is 1) He's now been suspended twice for hits in his NHL career... 4.5 years apart. 2) He draws more penalties than he takes. -

Andrew Shaw draws more penalties than he takes. Has in every season in his career. -

The guy only got 54 points last year... terrible offensively. Oh wait.. thats more or less a top 30 centre in the league... yup he surely cant be a second liner. -
Suspension Shaw suspended for three preseason games
Commandant replied to dlbalr's topic in Habs & Hockey Talk
Before this, his last suspension for an actual on-ice play, was hitting Mike Smith.... in 2012. 4.5 years ago. Yes there was also the slur, but I don't see that as the same as a dirty hit. -
Remember that they asked 20 coaches so 5% means one coach out of 20 voted for him. 10% means 2, etc.... Some of those are 5%, so I'm not sure what it means... was it just his own coach voting for him? What if the coaches were asked to rank a top 5 and then given a 5-4-3-2-1 points system. Would have been better IMO than just picking one with such a small sample.

Oh look, a political joke, from Mr. Don't make jokes about political things on a hockey board, ever. -
Any anxiety about Price?
Commandant replied to The Chicoutimi Cucumber's topic in Habs & Hockey Talk
Its a joke, jeez..... Also don't lecture me on what to do ever again. I didn't know you ran the site. -
If he isn't going to earn a contract, or even play a preseason game, might as well let him go back to his junior club.
