GDT Game 7 Habs vs Leafs 7:00 PM ET

[The Chicoutimi Cucumber]

Good period so far. Habs playing smart road hockey.

 

I’m surprised the Leafs did not come out absolutely flying, but maybe we’re past that point now...both teams go in expecting a meat grinder.

[Prime Minister Koivu]

Not bad not great

 

Gustofsson looks pretty good

Umm, what the 67 are you thinking?  You seriously need to change that to 79!!!  In 67, the Leafs beat the Habs and won the Cup.  In 79, the Habs beat the Leafs and won the Cup.  Either way, historically, both teams are playing for the Cup in this Game 7.  When the Habs & Leafs face each other, the winner usually brings home the Cup.  

 

Go Habs Go!!  

 

 

 

I meant that it has to remain 67.  Let’s kick’em out right now.

The Toronoto announcer called them indians, isn't that politically incorrect now?

They were Indian Residential Schools, that part is historically correct.

[Toronthab]

I'm pretty happy with our play.

[The Chicoutimi Cucumber]

Much as I rag on the D, Simpson is right - they are quite good with the “active stick” mucking up the Leafs in the slot and keeping them to the outside.

[Toronthab]

Gallagher is at 90%. 

[Sir_Boagalott]

Ahh, thank God, thats 1 of their biggest mistakes they must stop doing.  i.e. Evans almost let that Leafs go by, but then he realized no he should do something with his stick.  They often do that when back checking.  The Habs in front can stop him, so the Habs behind does nothing with their stick.

Gustafsson is taking a regular shift now -- but paired with the senior guys, not Kulak.

[The Chicoutimi Cucumber]

Chiarot is always getting in trouble, but I hope he’s not hurt

[The Chicoutimi Cucumber]

Petry finally showing signs of life

[Sir_Boagalott]

The funniest thing aboot Gustafsson, is that even when he is is in a game but doesnt play much, he still seems to have a positive affect.  It's like he's a lucky rabbits foot or something.  

[Helmethead]

Team looks good so far. 
 

Let’s Hope they keep it up. 

[tomh009]

You'd never be able to guess the gap between the two teams' regular-season records based on the play so far.

[Prime Minister Koivu]

Anderson missed an opportunity to shoot at an open net

 

Gallagher stinks he must not be 100%

[Toronthab]

We're lot g more comfortable with the puck 

[The Chicoutimi Cucumber]

Reilly is a damned good D. That was the game’s best chance so far

[Sir_Boagalott]

Wow.  Now that was some serious forechecking.  The Leafs were unable to move the puck above their own goal line.

He is playing well

[alfredoh2009]

Caufield hurt ?!

[Toronthab]

Gallagher's hands are still a problem

Gotta keep that up.

 

Gally looks slightly slower than usual to me; he’s not quite there, but he’s giving it all he has every second, of course.

But you do need to have the right D partner for him.

Gustafsson has played 4:04

Kulak 4:09

 

This is the same thing the did the last two games, in the first period, the bottom pair D get some shifts beside Weber or Petry (a little more this period cause Chiarot went to the room and returned).

 

But by the 3rd period they go down to 4 D

[alfredoh2009]

Leafs finishing their checks more than their plays
