GDT Game 1: VS Toronto, Wednesday, October 12, 7:00 PM EST

[Habspatrol]

Yeah, that was definitely a fun game. CC with a couple goals. Monahan with a goal and Anderson with a goal.... and the win. I'm expecting to be a lottery team... but until we start losing a bunch of games, I'm going to be cheering for wins.

 

[lecoqsportif]

Goaltending controversy already you reckon?

How can you not root for that, what a fun game.

Yeah, like no goalies.

 

[hairnova]

Really like Dach and Monahan.

Hoffman and Dadonov can go though.

 

[lecoqsportif]

What a great confidence win for our youth

Yup. And a lot of teachable moments for the coaches to work through. Ideal.

 

[lecoqsportif]

Really like Dach and Monahan.

Hoffman and Dadonov can go though.

I mean, how bad is Drouin. I’d rather let Pizza Mullet play than these hacks.

MSL trying to light a fire under Drouin’s ass…. he’ll be back in

Problem is that you can't trade them if they're not playing. No value.

 

[Sal_Butera]

Guhle plays like a 10-year vet

22:34 TOI in his 1st NHL game

 

[Rolex]

Habs will be a tough out all season for opponents......we will probably end up bottom 5-10 in league, but hopefully a tough out....

 

[lecoqsportif]

MSL trying to light a fire under Drouin’s ass…. he’ll be back in

He’ll have rotate these bozos through to keep them motivated.

Sure. But they didn’t help their own cause tonight either. Quite awful.

 

[Habs53]

Our forward group is good. Much better than last year. Guhle may already be our best D. This team is better than most here think

 

[hairnova]

The D might be young but at least they can skate.

 

[Rolex]

If there's one thing Timmins was great at, it's picking dmen.......

You guys just wait until Logan Mailloux becomes a top 2 dmen....i'm so high on this kid's potential

 

[Habsy]

If Monahan's hips hold up he might be the steal of the year.

The D and G won't hold up. Winning against the Leafs is always great but temper expectations here. Some long nights ahead.

Oh absolutely. He drafted tons of them in his 18 drafts here.

Only 3 of them have played more than 500 games in the NHL. 4 if you include Yannick Wber (499 games).

He was awesome at it.

 

[lecoqsportif]

The D might be young but at least they can skate.

A lot of mistakes, but there’s a lot of promise. It’ll be fun and scary.

 

[GGpX]

I know it's just one game, but did Toronto scare anyone here? Did that look like a powerhouse we just beat, but we just happened to have a hot goalie?

And it's not like it's a middle-of-the-season game, where teams are tired or [insert hockey cliché here] and the win can be explained this way.

 

[Rolex]

Leafs are fucked.....

Their top players are not winners.....don't have the drive to win...

On paper, Leafs should have made the ECF or Stanley Cup finals 2-3 times already.....
