GDT Game 2: @ Detroit, Friday, October 14, 7:00 PM EST

[CH1]

Slaf a solid -2

His 9;37 of playing time was lowest on the team (by a lot)

Montreal is a great city. I’ve been there twice and have some friends from there. Would be a terrific place to play. Plus you guys are developing your own players now (Dort, Mathurin, Boucher, Birch …).

Sure, just like Toronto's a nice city, but there's a bunch of Americans who still think Canada might as well be Serbia. While some have warmed up to Toronto, it ain't America.

This can't keep going for much further. He needs to go to Laval.

The Red Wings coach looks like Nosferatu

It’ll work itself out.

Personally I think he made the decision easy

Personally I think he made the decision easy

it was one of those draft years that’ll take a while to appraise — Shane Wright got 6 mins in his first game.

And I think it is only those two in the show as well.

Slaf can at least go to AHL. Wright is nhl or CHL

 

[GEEMAN]

That’s what I just mentioned in the Raps thread on the Leafs board. Put an NBA team in Montreal!

At least the venue is there unlike MLB

 

[GEEMAN]

Detroit made some nice moves this off-season. I think they're going to be pretty good.

Excellent moves by Stevie Y , needed to stabilize the top 6 until the rebuild is complete

Got a complete second line at fair money

Perron and Kubalik are easy trade deadline deals next year

Coop is a very underrated player who is solid

Give him 15 minutes a night for the next 7 games

This will be the norm, Habs will look like deer in headlights for most road games.

D is decimated , just being respectable is a bonus

I think you meant Siberia

 

[Habsy]

Well I enjoyed seeing Harris with poise yesterday. As long as the staff doesn't pressure these guys to win every night there should be solid progression by the youth. Let them play and let them make their mistakes.

I thought the game yesterday was boring AF. Dave Poulin kept trying to pawn it off as a great game. Only thing great from a Habs standpoint is finally seeing them suck with prospects in the lineup instead of Paul Byrons.

 

[Krustchev]

That was more like it!

Less of an excuse for forwards though. It was turnover galore out there.

Wings game plan was to dump the puck, apply pressure & clog neutral zone not allowing the transition game Habs need to create offense… complete opposite of Leafs gamestyle

Exactly. This team until last night was o-fer on the man advantage this season. You're telling me you can't give Slaf even so much as a sniff of power play time, or some quality minutes with Suzuki?
