@TOSportsAdam Score 50 in the playoffs?? Not likely. He will score at least as many as the entire Leafs team and likely more.

Can he do it in the playoffs tho? Probably not.

@Jabs_13 Even as a Habs fan, still have to go with Boldy. That contract is insane

Replies got into a Fiesty debate after my Matt Boldy best bang for your $ contract post, so who you prefer? Matt Boldy: 24 yo - $7M 71 GP: 40-39=79 pts, 1.11 pt/GM -200 ft, PK’s -xGF%: 53 Cole Caufield: 25 yo - $7.85M 74 GP: 49-33=83, 1.12 pt/GM -goal machine, 0:00 pk -xGF%: 55

@gallymeroreboot I agree. I think they would need him added to say yes to the deal. It actually seems pretty fair to me

Zharovsky is the piece that worries me most too I do not think Bolduc will become better than Knies, the picks are late round picks & you just never have a guarantee with those & Struble I do not see a future long term for the Habs That’s why I felt it needed Zharovsky, but could end up being the best player of the whole deal

It’s interesting to see the dynamics under this post Habs fans are crying its an overpay while Leafs fans say its ridiculous & Leafs can get better Goes to show we overvalue what we have, under value what we don’t & we’re all better off not being GMs of any team

@fnveenie It may help that the Avs played last night….although they lost and don’t lose 2 in a row very often. Agree with your assessment of a scheduled loss. lol

Tonight is somewhat of a scheduled loss. If Dobes gets lit up, it'll be interesting and, possibly, telling to see what they do in goal on Saturday.

@fnveenie 💯…always loved his energy level but he can’t even accept a pass anymore. It’s sad to watch

It's really tough watching a great player you once loved turn into a shell of their former self.

@ryanwhitney6 lol. I really don’t thinks Habs fans care if you went to bed or not.

How mad are Canadiens fans that I actually did not go to bed

@ryanwhitney6 I thought you went to bed when the Habs went up by 2. Refs gave this game back to the Oilers and everyone knows it

I think Craig Button may cry right now on the Montreal Broadcast.

@AZadarski Not this fan. The Habs prospect pool is very solid. It was time to make a trade like this!

For over a decade, Canadiens fans have been conditioned to believe that salvation is coming via the entry draft. Naturally there are fans who are upset by today's turn of events as a result.

@fnveenie @HockeyyInsiderr @CanadiensMTL 💯 He was the only reason they were still in the game after 2

@HockeyyInsiderr @jeanclermont23 @CanadiensMTL I've been hard on Montembault at times, but he's been the Habs' best player this playoff. Not even close tbh.

Time to go big or get swept Marty wake up !!! The @CanadiensMTL lines for game 3: caufield/ suzuki/ demidov; slaf/newhook/heineman; dvo/gally/andy; laine/evans/kapanen. Matheson/lane; guhle/carrier; struble/xhekaj. Dobes.

Lights Will Guide You Home A little something to get everyone ready and excited for Monday. Something special about this team. First Habs playoff run in 4 years, thought I’d come out of video editing retirement, Hope you all enjoy! And #GoHabsGo ❤️

@fnveenie Agree…Brutal start to this period

I don't like.

@Demidov3ra @fnveenie As a Habs fan, I don’t get all the hate. He’s made some questionable decisions but the Habs are playing meaningful games and could still make the playoffs. Nobody predicted that, with the team they have.

Lots of criticism towards MSL today, and much of it deserved. To add some perspective, many coaches would've had Hutson on the 3rd pair until January or longer. Many would have put Demidov on the 4th line. Some of his decisions are baffling tho, and his system is questionable.

@ivandemigoal I feel like you just jinxed them…I do agree though. Hope they can fill the net tonight!

The Habs do not deserve to make the playoffs if they can’t score against this defense.

@WillyWilly_74 @Acyn Does he realize the US has 10x the population of Canada? Per capita, we are subsidizing the US in trade. He needs to check his math.

The United States doesn’t subsidize Canada at all, it’s a trade deficit and only because the United States buys 1.5 billion, yes with a B barrels of oil a year from Canada. Otherwise the United States would be in a massive surplus with Canada. Oh, and you also buy that oil at a discounted price!!! it’s kind of crazy that by now people don’t understand that. End the trade deficit with the oil is nowhere near 200 billion.!! complete exaggeration and liar

Trump: With countries like Canada, we subsidize a lot of countries and keep them going and keep them in business, in the case of Mexico it's $300 billion a year, in the case of Canada, close to $200 billion a year. At what point do we say you have to work for yourselves

@fnveenie Absolutely agree! Maybe Dobes starts Saturday? Montembeault looks tired. Love your commentary, by the way. I’m the biggest Habs fan there is but you always give an objective view, even as a Habs fan yourself. 👍

@mark_stairs Happens a lot. Two games with high emotions followed by a horrendously boring team with a good goalie. Recipe for disaster. Fortunate they got a point considering the goaltending they got tonight.

Tonight feels like a trap game. The team has played well against some good teams lately, but this is a must-win, at home, for the Islanders. NYI plays a boring style, and Sorokin is capable of stealing games. I hope they're ready for this one.

@Bugsy1126 @Habs_Empire I love Gally, but at his salary the cap space is the return. They won’t be able to trade him without taking back an anchor of a contract. I hope they keep him. He is heart and soul for the Habs.

@Habs_Empire You won't get anything of value Teams watching him know he is a heart & soul guy but he bleeds bleu blanc rouge....other teams will be wary of getting a potentially heartbroken player Also, his injury history and battered body may be too rich for other teams to overlook

I'm sorry, but if Gally keeps this up, you trade him at the deadline (depending on the offer). If he's playing the best hockey of his career, then you send him to a playoff team for a chance to win.

@Victorshi2020 Pretty certain Texas is staying “Red”….unfortunately

Holy sh*t. Of all the Kamala Harris rallies I’ve watched, I’ve never seen anything like this. THOUSANDS of people are doing the swag on the floor & in the stands. Texas isn’t going back. This is AMAZING.

@NickL2500 @gallymeroreboot Great predictions….This seems really reasonable for all of them. The only one I am hesitant about is Hutson. I think he may have a harder time than many think but I really hope you are right!

@gallymeroreboot Suzuki 30 g 55 a - 85 pts Slafkovsky 28 g 48 a - 76 pts Caufield 36 g 33 a - 68 pts Laine 32 g 26 a - 58 pts Dach 16 g 41 a - 57 pts Hutson 10 g 43 a - 53 pts Matheson 11 g 40 a - 51 pts Newhook 22 g 27 a - 49 pts Roy - 18 g 21 a - 39 pts Anderson 15g 15 a - 30 pts

My predictions, what’s yours? Top 10 #GoHabsGo Suzuki: 34G 55A = 89 pts Laine: 46G 40A = 86pts Caufield: 41G 36A = 77pts Slafkovsky: 28G 46A = 74pts Matheson: 14G 59A = 73pts Dach: 27G 33A = 60pts Newhook: 22G 36A = 58pts Armia: 23G 28A = 51pts Roy: 24G 22A = 46pts Anderson: 27G 16A = 43pts
