Less than 24 hours until I get to see the Flyers! WWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!
They won't separate DD from Patches because he's the only winger who can compensate for DDs weaknesses and DD can't play wing. I think DD will be gone by next season, he doesn't fit at all and there's no space for him. I'd rather they put Briere with Ellers line and Gally with Patches / DD again, they already have the chemistry and Briere and A.Gally looked great together.
That Pouliot-Brassard-Nash line looks like it can be lethal. They were only juuuuuuust off on a few plays.
Overall a pretty good period. First goal was pretty blatant interference, but it feels like the guys are still sloppy back in the defensive end. So much focus on being offensive, aggressive on forechecking, and having the defense get in low that they've gotten away from some of the basics on D. Gonna take a while of playing in the new system before they really get it down, I guess.

The Habs are resembling my NHL 13 Connected team from last year when my minor leaguers started to mature lol
if Tanev scores, someone should check the temperature in hell.
the fun part was that Henrik just had to "stand" there, with nobody around, to tap it in :lol
It's not like you're supposed to cover the best player on the other team...
still skating. don't jinx it.
translation: completely unimpressive
Basically. He had one rush down the ice where he outskated Staal... that was about it.

For our supposed offensive depth, we sure do suck at scoring goals.
Yeah he's not looked very good, surprisingly.
SHINKARUUUUUK.
Making a stronger and stronger case for starting on the team. Damn.

14s in he feeds him
AHL goons trying to fill a bottom roster spot.

Anderson has been known to make pretty good saves, but lets all those greasy goals go in. Anderson likes to cheat a lot, too.
Same thing. Prust has fought two of them, ridiculous to risk yourself to injury to oblige some nobodies.
It wasn't a bad goal, Plekanec sniped it, it's just amusing the context of the goal compared to all the other shots he stops.
Totally, its not worth the risk having a tilt with a scrub.

I try. <3
I thought your whole shtick was done after the playoffs? Old habits die hard I guess.

Because one post towards smiley as a joke means I've been doing it the whole offseason, yes?
whaaaaaaaat? No way! I was sure he'd be our Nr.6
I guess that means Weber is our Nr. 6 then... well... damn.whaaaaaaaat? No way! I was sure he'd be our Nr.6
May he give you questionable defensive coverage sprinkled with a few goals on top.

That... was about what he seemed to be during the pre-season game. Not consistently bad defensively, but a few fuckups. Let's hope those disappear as he gets more used to the team.
Day ruined. Almost made it through the whole thing too, thanks brah.
To be fair, that's what the thread was asking for. He was literally answering the thread. Not his fault that his particular fetish is majorly fucked up.
Not going to put too much stock into that game because, you know, preseason, but the fact remains that that was our starting defense and the closest thing to a real lineup we've put on the ice yet. A little disconcerting...
I'm also still waiting for this new and improved Brad Richards to show up.
