Mad Habber

@Whiskeylung When the game was live I was watching his face and totally missed Slafs reaction. Lol

I know Slaf's reaction stole the show, but can we give a moment to respect the face Cole had one when Rank was explaining his reasoning for the Bolduc double minor: Have you ever seen him pull this look out?

@fwmarqix My uncle did something like this except he substituted in a laxative, then laughed his butt off as the guy spent the rest of the day in the bathroom.

A guy at work used to take my lunch from the communal fridge. More than once. I labeled it, didn’t help. I left a note, didn’t help. So I made a lunch specifically for him.😂 Same container, same spot in the fridge. Ghost pepper hot sauce mixed into everything, and I mean everything.😂 Then I sat at my desk and waited. I heard him from across the office. He came out of the break room red-faced, looking for water. I looked up from my screen and asked if he was okay. He said something was wrong with the food in the fridge. I told him that was strange, mine was fine. Then I opened my actual lunch and ate it at my desk while he drank his fourth glass of water. He’s never touched anything in that fridge again.😂 Sometimes, the only language some people understand is one they can feel. What’s the most elaborate thing you’ve ever done to protect something that should have never needed protecting?

@SBrooks_77 @SeanCFoley12 Regular season head to head match ups are the best indicator of how playoff series will go IMO. I suspect this match up will be even tougher than the bolts.

@SeanCFoley12 Im not saying they suck but regular season means nothing to me. Tampa is a vet team that didnt need to prove in the regular season. Buffalo had the high of finally making playoffs and such and went all out

Buffalo doesnt have a cirelli.

@SuprMario47 @worldhockeyrpt If it's other GM's saying that good luck getting anything done.

@worldhockeyrpt To me this just gives Chakya a chip on his shoulder, which is a good thing.

Steve Simmons goes at Keith Pelley for hiring John Chayka. This was something.

@BoltsBench @the_habitant @TheJasonWade1 Poor Tampa fans don't want to hear chirping after that's all their team did this series. Yeah they outplayed the Habs for an entire period, they still lost. And they lost 3 games before this.

@the_habitant @TheJasonWade1 Actually kind of wrong. Tonight was a best of 1. Kind of what game 7’s are. Just take the puck luck, understand that yall got absolutely outplayed tonight, and move on. Chirping after your team had 9 shots in 60 min is a little embarrassing…

You cooked Hagel Your team, in fact, DID fall SHORT #GoHabsGo

@BoltsJolts @HabsOnly24 AI just combs the web for opinions it even states that in your post. Boston Bruins (lead by Jack Edwards) always whined about the Habs diving. This was in the Gregory/Colin Campbell era were the Bruins got away with everything. As Tampa fan you should know about Gergory Csmpbell

@HabsOnly24 There is no rest. It was a one shot kill on Grok. Yours on the other hand is clearly crafted to fit YOUR narrative.

@AJBolts @CanadiensMTL 1) As Tampa fans are quick to remind us, MTL hasn't won since the 90's. So yeah maybe... 2) When Habs were leading all I saw from Tampa fans was complaining about the refs. (Both fanbases can agree the Refs suck, just not why)

Habs fans are crying so much about a loss in a 2-2 series they are out here creating skits 😭😭 If you’re a Habs fan you have got to be desperately hoping @CanadiensMTL are much mentally stronger than your fan base #GoBolts

@Whiskeylung I am crazy but I feel like this was the Habs worst game of the series. They couldn't seem to get any real sustained pressure, and they gave the puck up way too much. I know they had a two goal lead but it felt like luck that they did.

I saw some of you saying that Caufield is playing some of his worst hockey… then he got that goal and, well you’re probably not super wrong to be honest but he did get a goal. I want more from these guys.

@PierreLucMathi1 Isn't that what they said about Luc Robitaille?

Hagel might be the worst player to score 6 goals in a series 6 goals, not a single ounce on skills involved in those He gets lucky bounces, easy tap-ins or eats a puck to the chest and in Absolutely 0 skills involved

@BoltsJolts Until this thread I haven't seen one person complaining about the hit.

Hockey knowing fans in Montreal are crying about a PERFECT open ice hit.

@Presidan @HabsDepression It will be Xhekaj no doubt, unless the dress 7 d.

@HabsDepression Caved in ?! He was absolutely stellar in the first 2 games. Sure, struggled a little at times in game 3 but he has been very good and not afraid to get in the post whistle scrums. Can't be Guhle as well. Its between Stroobs and Carrier

If/When Dobson returns, it has to be one of Matheson, Guhle or Carrier sitting I lean towards Matheson. Hes been getting caved in all series and hes been holding onto the puck too much lately

@SensFaninYYC Nobody has billed Sens as cup contenders yet.

2 straight years down 3-0 in the 1st round. Sens fans cant say fuck all about the current Leafs core not being able to win playoff series when their current core cant even win playoff games

@Lappy14 At least Tampa fans seem to know more about the game than the Caps fans last year. They also don't need someone tooting on a horn to get them cheering like caps fans.

So happy to be back at the Bell Center tonight! After winning one game at the Tampa Bay library, it's now time for real playoff hockey!

@BoltsBreakdown @DirkShadd @LuisSantana Age: Hagel 27 Slafkovsky 22

It’s not about the size of the dog in the fight, it’s about the size of the fight in the dog. Hagel: Slafkovsky: • 6’2” 6’3” • 182lbs 225lbs An inch (at least) shorter & 40 lbs lighter…what can Brandon Hagel NOT do?! #GoBolts ———————————————— 📷: @DirkShadd @LuisSantana

@cadmiumfalcon @Blank_Takes It's because they didn't predict a sweep that hasn't even happened yet.

@Blank_Takes What are you talking about, that list was like 85% in favour of the Canes winning the series. Not sure why you’re so mad.

Nobody watches the Canes play hockey all year and then convinces themselves they are beatable bc they don't have a "superstar" forward on the roster. And yet, every year the Canes lay belt to ass to every single team that isnt a top notch cup contender. I always say, Carolina embarrasses good teams in the playoffs. And then they GET embarrassed by great teams in the playoffs. Lol Picking the Sens in this series just shows that these people know nothing, and I do mean NOTHING about the Canes. Probably still don't. Because this dominance isn't new.

@JWat27 @ReviewLightning He got ragged on pretty hard by Habs fans because he never lived up to potential, and the trade.

@ReviewLightning Bolts won the trade the moment they hoisted the Cup against Montreal while Drouin sat because of personal issues. (I’m not hating, I don’t know what he was going through, I’m just saying). And if that’s not enough, here’s their stats for their tenures with the trade recipients:

The Jonathan Drouin trades tree: Drouin became Sergachev, who became Moser, Geekie, prospect Noah Steen, and a pick that was used in a package to acquire Gourde and Bjorkstrand. Drouin had 4 goals this year. Moser alone had 7. Best trade in team history.

@hbob8922 @SamuelBCohen IMO Cuthbert used to be the best in Canada. Don't know what happened since he started calling Leafs games.

@SamuelBCohen these guys are the most soulless broadcasters in the sport. its an absolute sham that they are doing this banger series.

Listening to these Canadian broadcasters go silent when Hagel lands the right is a work of art. Truly incredible!

@ChampaBay2025 @Girl_Lafleur @NHL Used to be every other night regardless of where the game was played.

@Girl_Lafleur @NHL Tell me you don't have much experience with NHL playoffs without telling me you don't have much experience with NHL playoffs lol It is common to have a 2-day break when traveling. The Sens and hurricanes did the same thing....

The fact that there’s no game tonight in Montreal and then again on Saturday is truly just peak @NHL - I don’t know why you need an extra day off other than to rest the older team. #gohabsgo

@HabsAddictMtl @the_habitant Blaming one player for a team loss is dumb.

@the_habitant Blaming him for the loss while discussing with other fans is one thing, but personally attacking players is completely pointless and counterproductive.

Genuinely have no idea what the thought process is behind going on Instagram and attacking players and their family members for shitty play You think that’s gonna help the team win? Thats gonna fire the team up? Bring morale back up to an all time high?

@SonnyHendrixx @EricEngels I wonder if he coached like that when he was coaching his kids.

@EricEngels Every speech MSL gives has 5-600 F bombs in em. He’s just learning from the coach

Watching Habs avails from Tampa. Death, taxes and Demidov dropping live Fbombs…🤣
