Poor little Habs Vs the Big bad Leafs

[Krustchev]

a lot of educated hockey fans there

they generally dont just rely on the eye test so it creates some good debates

Hockey is not exactly rocket science. Just saying.

 

[worm]

No offense but you are not a rocket scientist so you cannot make that claim.

 

[Alan C]

Not sure why, to each their own, I haven’t & never will and prefer nothing from T-dot contaminate the “Montreal” Canadiens board..

I feel the same way

 

[Habspatrol]

Shouldn't the middle finger be facing the other way. This looks like you're tell Domi off.

Leafs lost tonight to St.Louis

This may be me but I’ve watched Tavares since the playoffs up until this point so far this year and speed is not something that he has, seems to be hardly noticeable.

29 years old, not a youngster anymore

 

[GrandWazoo]

Tavares has never been especially fast.

 

[Habsy]

yeah, he’s just off to a slow start. It happens.

My Leaf buddies said the same thing , seems to have lost a 1/2 step this year .
They have season tickets and aren’t impressed so far .

He was spoon fed easy 2 foot puts last year

 

[worm]

he will be his usual PPG self

 

[DonKay]

he will be his usual PPG self

For sure for another couple of years.

but the question I have is that since he’s already 29 and the fact the NHL is a speed game how many more point per game years does this guy have in him?

The Leafs figured lets win a cup in 3 years and deal with the contract later on

this was the knock on Gretzky too. Tavares is a smart player, he’ll be fine.

Zeke is never wrong, just ask him

 

[hockeylover]

There's actually Habs fans here who wouldn't have signed 28 year old Tavares to a 7 year deal?

Weird. I think your roster would be pretty sweet with him.

Yeah cause no one is ever critical of good players.

No thanks , glad he never gave us a chance

He made the smart move , he knows he would of been crucified in Montreal trying to carry a team on his back

Yep. Quite a few. Quite a few leafs fans telling us that would be stupid as well.

I was arguing for JT though.

No issue with the player , Habs need a 25 year old JT with a developed Caufield , KK , and a few other top 6 players in their early 20`s

He is too old til we turn the corner then dealing with a declining asset on a bad contract
