Damn what a goal.

 

[Samyy]

Strome scores again

 

[zroid]

STROOOOOOME!

 

[Yawnier]

Will not shock me at all if the yotes get #3 overall for them to take Marner over Hanifin. Will have all 3 of the players that are one of the best lines in the chl.

Also there is the Strome hatty lol, ties Marner for 126 points.

I wouldn't be shocked if both Marner and Strome go before Hanifin
Edmonton really should take Hanifin though if they get #3

 

[Red_Man]

So PAP was on a french station yesterday and said he thinks Patches should be the next captain. Seems all but inevitable now.

Also, this is from a guy who used to scout for the Habs and is still a good friend with Timmins and had a recent conversation with him:

Trevor Timmins and I were discussing what the team needed going into the trade deadline, and we both agreed that more grit/size in the bottom six was a must. Like me and everyone else who scouted DSP in his draft year there are the weight concerns but he thinks the team can work with him "like they did with PK"..if he ever get that body fat percentage down to where the team would like they may have a really decent player on their hands. Trevor scouted Flynn when he was finishing his college career and really liked him at the time BTW..he really likes the pickup and thinks he'll help the team down the road.

Trust in Timmins

Your new Montreal Canadiens Captain.....



















David Desharnais!

 

[zroid]

this game is wild haha

did Strome get an assist?

edit: YEP! RIP Marner :>

 

[lamaroo]

There's the lead for Strome.

 

[Red_Man]

David Desharnais!

I'd become a Isles fan if that happened.

 

[Samyy]

Poor Marner D:
That must feel pretty bad

 

[Yawnier]

Yep they don't have any major high upside defencemen in their system aside from Nurse and Klefbom (somewhat).

 

[vatstep]

How will the Bruins embarrass themselves today?

 

[Samyy]

Remaining Teams Toronto Plays: Minnesota, Florida, Ottawa (x2), Buffalo, Boston, Columbus, Montreal

Remaining Teams Carolina Plays: Chicago, Pitt, NJ, Boston, Washington, Florida, Philly (x2), Buffao, Detroit (x2)

I only see Toronto winning against Buffalo and maybe 1 of the remaining games against Ottawa, hopefully Carolina can stay ahead :/

At this point I would be shocked if they don't get him.

If it were up to me as a hockey god I would manipulate the odds to do:

1. Toronto - Connor McDavid (Wins the lottery #yolo)
2. Buffalo - Jack Eichel
3. Arizona - Mitch Marner
4. Edmonton - Lawson Crouse
5. Carolina - Noah Hanifin

and then the Wild grab Pavel Zacha who slips hard for no real reason. Edmonton makes the world lol by taking Crouse because he's gritty and that's what Edmonton needs or something.

Bob McKenzie @TSNBobMcKenzie · 2m 2 minutes ago
In honor of Strome-Marner battle for OHL scoring race, I just did a flash poll of 8 NHL scouts to see who they have rated higher right now:

Bob McKenzie @TSNBobMcKenzie · 26s
Four scouts took Strome. Four scouts took Marner. So, that settles that. Well, not really.

Patches is our C. listen to him in interviews. As long as the A is Subban. It's all good

Damn it Razor Pls

Also.. Let's hope Flynn and Mitchell come back soon. I really have no opinion on them yet

Toronto has looked decent against Montreal all year, even with an AHL roster I'm sure the Habs will find a way to make a joke of themselves in the next game between the two.

If Price plays I assume he'll show the hart we all know he has and pull out that win.

 

[Merguson]

I don't even know how he's look this year, I just remember people were disappointed with his production at the beginning of the season.

from what I hear he hasn't been bad, but he hasn't developed much over last year

He had 19 points in 25 games by November.. after that he's been at least a PPG pace since then..

63 points in 43 games since then.

It's just stats.. I'm not sure how other areas of his game has developed but he's recovered nicely after the poor start.

 

[Pickles the Firecat]

Toffoli should have been suspended, he pretty clearly targeted Burrows after their earlier scrum.

Richards best be ready to put in some work.

I can get behind this

My man.

I dunno about the rest of Habs GAF but I feel bad when we win against Leafs. It's like kicking a drunk man while he's down.

Fuck that! He's a rich, strangely loved drunk. I'll kick that shit all day.

Wonder if that's related to Ho-Sang's trade from Windsor to Niagara. (he was traded mid-November)

 

[CreeperBlocks]

I just realized the Knicks are basically NBAs version of the Leafs or Sabres

More Leafs than Sabres, but ya. Perennially shitty in a huge market.

 

[Razorskin]

Um, no? They're begging to be kicked at this point. Look at how Leafs fans react when the opposition scores now.

 

[Kave_Man]

Solo knows! Besides he also knows even when he kicks us when we're down we're still going to give him money.

I just realized the Knicks are basically NBAs version of the Leafs or Sabres

Leafs = Knicks in NBA
Leafs = New York Jets in NFL

 

[CreeperBlocks]

Um, no? They're begging to be kicked at this point. Look at how Leafs fans react when the opposition scores now.

I haven't payed attention :lol

 

[zroid]

Strome AGAIN

4 goals, 1 assist

how much more?

 

[Yawnier]

4th goal for Strome lmao

 

[Red_Man]

Really Tampa?

 

[Razorskin]

I haven't payed attention :lol

Mostly mean Leafs fan here, they cheer for the other team. :lol

Really Tampa?

Boston has their number, just like Tampa has ours.

 

[vatstep]

Really Tampa?

YA RLY

 

[Red_Man]

YA RLY

How will the Bruins embarrass themselves today?

Even with your absence your reverse jinx remains powerful. I applaud you.

 

[Kave_Man]

Whatever!

Solo a few years back when you had that top 5 pick was loving life cheering for the loss. He even made some poems for every team that got eliminated in the playoffs.

 

[Razorskin]

NAMESTNIKOV

 

[zroid]

another assist for Strome

Mark Hunter is licking his chops

 

[Yawnier]

6 points for Strome this game

Ridiculous and nice move there

 

[zroid]

I wonder if John Shannon is still pissed that McDavid was scratched :lol

this game is great

 

[CreeperBlocks]

another assist for Strome

Mark Hunter is licking his chops

If you guys don't get McDavid. Strome sounds like a good pick

 

[zroid]

Apparently Strome has now broken the Erie Otters franchise points record, previously held by Connor Brown.

 

[Samyy]

If you guys don't get McDavid. Strome sounds like a good pick

Unfortunately there's no guarantee we get Strome unless we hold on to 4th overall, even then one of Arizona/Edmonton might bite (whoever ends up #3).

I like Hanifin but prefer forwards that high in the draft :/

 

[Kave_Man]

I wonder if John Shannon is still pissed that McDavid was scratched :lol

this game is great

What's the story behind that?

 

[Red_Man]

Stamkos and Marchand fight lmao

What

Marchand is the scum of the league.

 

[ZeroGravity]

Eat shit Marchand.

 

[zroid]

What's the story behind that?

nothing much, McDavid scratched because this game is meaningless and they wanted to protect him, and John Shannon was being a whiny bitch on-air before the game. obviously McDavid helps their TV ratings.
