GHT120 Posted December 17, 2022 Author Share Posted December 17, 2022 No much interesting IMO below, but MSL noted that Drouin playing with Dach means they can switch off/support each other on faceoffs ... MSL was impressed with JD's work at centre in the last couple of games ... game stats show he was 0/4 on faceoffs versus Ottawa (3rd best team in the NHL on faceoffs) but 4/6 against Anaheim ... TBL are closer to Anaheim (20th and 27th respectively) than Ottawa in that regard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wouldn't surprise me at all if the Habs come up with a big effort tonight. They will win some games we don't expect them too. Montreal and Florida now tied for the toughest schedule remaining.

NHL Remaining Schedule Strength | Tankathon I hope for an entertaining loss with no injuries to trade chips like Anderson or Edmundson. I also hope Drouin has another good game (based on MSL and play-by-play analysts, the pose on this forum won't have it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NHL Remaining Schedule Strength | Tankathon Hmm, thats odd that the Habs had the 4th toughest schedule and then several days later they are tied with the toughest. I definitely disagree with that rank because the Habs have numerous games against the Bruins and Leafs, who they have a tendency to beat when they are the weaker team. Interesting idea for a website though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting idea for a website though. it is a stat that is used in predicting end-of-year standings. I do not think it makes sense for middle of the pack teams or bubble teams. I don't know if it takes into account back-to-back and compressed schedules like the Habs next 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting idea for a website though. Anaheim is considered one of the weakest teams so after that game it would make sense that their schedule rating got a little tougher. The fact that they have a lot of games left with Boston and Toronto would make their rating tougher even though they have had good success with the Leafs.

BCHabnut Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 Habs playing pretty good and down by 2. Every game I want the same things. Caufield suzuki dach continue scoring.

Not a fan It annoys me watching on Sportsnet NOW they block all ads except the gambling ones. Which is bad enough, but they remove the stream controls during these adds. You can't skip the stream back or forward, just pause. As soon as the ads are over, they stream controls come back. It's feels a little underhanded. While I'm on the subjuect, and I know everyone loves to read my ramblings, who else thinks the digital ads are gonna kill team revenue? Why would any company pay a premium for board ads, now their exposure is cut down by like 90% as TV viewers get completely different ads?

Prime Minister Koivu Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 Drouin and his Ozone giveaways 💩 but the Slafkovsky, Dach, Drouin line looks really good. The penalties are getting ridiculous at this point. I feel like the tank is gaining steam and we are about to go over a steep hill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir_Boagalott Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 I kinda felt that Stamkos deserved a penalty on that 1 play. Sure, it wasn't crosschecking because he only had 1 hand on his stick, but he put his stick through the Habs legs and pushed him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alfredoh2009 Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 Tank was on for this game. Drouin had a decent game, but he is exposed every time he plays the blue line on the PP. Drew two penalties and created chances. what happened to Anderson? He seems to be Armia’s twin out there. I love Guhle’s play, great kid.
