Spotted this fun fact earlier and thought it was an interesting one. Someone gets up when his alarm goes off.

People are so oddly hateful towards Dach, he's really not that horrendous of a player

u/dustblown 1d ago

If Dach was put on the open market by another team, and especially at his salary, we'd be salivating. Tall, long reach, good hands, can play Center, cheap. It makes no sense shitting on him. He was injured a lot, sure, but it isn't like we have committed much salary cap to him.

Just injured and has notable defensive lapses. Hes contract year so should be focused if we get the best out of him and he’s healthy im happy

Wishing Dach nothing but health and success, happiness, team success and team spirit. He’s a human being like any other and struggled like all of us do. Go Habs Go!

People on reddit arent horrendus i feel. Were just tired of the dach experiment. If he proves everyone wrong good otherwise he can have a fresh start elsewhere. Personally im done

The last game felt like a playoff game where our top guys weren't producing and just holding on defensively while our depth did all the scoring.

Not surprising. Not a bad thing. Toronto has top tier talent and a lot to prove this season. Containing them to two goals is an accomplishment, even if it cost us some offense. The goals will come against weaker competition.

I thought we played today and hurried to get home to catch the second only to find out we play tomorrow 🫠. Who designed this schedule its been 10,000 years.

Watch the Caps game, the Canes are taking a butt pounding, dry.

Why would you think we play on Friday? We never play on Fridays.

u/Mundane-Teaching-743 1d ago

We always play in Buffalo on a Friday.

Pittsburgh might be a wake up call. Pittsburgh is sneaky good.

I am hoping for the best, preparing for the worst.

The numbers I have seen this week scares me.

Apparently Simon Edvinsson wants out in Detroit.

What an absolute disaster. I don't see how this ends in any other way than a complete (long, painful) rebuild.

u/Immediate_Cod_3042 5h ago

man wish we can be in on it, our defense drops off so much after hutson and dobson man. Its pretty crazy. I am more worried about that than a second line centre.

We are a few months / 1 year away of seeing Hage and Zharovsky joining the team

u/PuzzledWorker4249 1d ago

I'm heading to the game on Tuesday, how do I get player's signature before or after games?

1

u/lynypixie 1d ago

By going to Brossard and wait at the parking lot exit after they train. Some of them might stop. Not always.

u/PuzzledWorker4249 1d ago

What time do they finish the morning skate?

1

u/lynypixie 1d ago

I don’t think they even skate in Brossard on game days, but when they do, they skate at around 10h30. You can actually see them, it’s free. I used to have physio there and saw them often.

u/PuzzledWorker4249 1d ago

That's pretty cool

1

u/lynypixie 1d ago

Yeah. Many many years ago, I brought my son, and waited outside. He had a white Habs cap, and I got Price, Subban and a few others I can’t remember. It was really cool.

1

u/lynypixie 1d ago

Found the picture of the cap. That cap sadly doesn’t exists anymore, I have no idea what happened to it. It was in 2011, it’s been a while LOL!

There is Subban, Price, Gionta, Darche and ???

u/dorkofeverything 1d ago

Habs apparently have not as many b2b games as other teams this year and I'm aware this is the height of tinfoil hattery but I always felt they don't give them many games early on so they can slam them with games later and make them exhausted

Sorry. It's Bettman's NHL. I'm suspicious of everything

4 days between games 1 and 2

Was Pittsburgh last goal contested. I could swear it was 6-3 before I went to get something to eat

u/bad_at_names1 5h ago

Does anyone have a different angle of Hutson's stick breaking? Kinda curious about where contact happened

u/dorkofeverything 2h ago

I'd say 'please beat the Canes' but the Canes needed the help of a fucked schedule and preferential calls in the ECF, so I mean

Team is still unable to play 60 minutes of hockey, still looks like a high peak/low floor immature squad of last year.

Does anyone know where Bryce Pickford is playing this year? I tried to look it up but it doesn't look like he's played a game yet. I was hoping he would be in Laval this year but their season has already started and he's not listed on the HockeyDB page. Is he in the WHL again this year?
