GDT Game 42: VS Predators, Thursday, January 12, 7:00 PM EST

[worm]

Askarov making his NHL debut tonight, just for @Habsy.

Small sample size but terrible rebound control

Good start to the game and then they revert to their usual suckage.

Preds are real bad

Welcome back Jesse!

Welcome back Jesse!

Showed some patience with the puck, sorely lacking on the team.

Crazy what confidence can do, something he attributed to playing a lot in Laval, tons of minutes on the PP, and building confidence in his offensive game. No sure why I’m mentioning this, anyway, there was a monster shift by Slaf too this period.

 

[CH1]

Entertaining game. Habs have some mojo tonight.

 

[Habspatrol]

Ylonen getting a little PP time.

 

[Habspatrol]

Slaf going to make the coaches (and fans) love him. 2 blocked shots and a hit on that shift.

 

[wiseguy1]

New role for Slaf, defensive specialist.

 

[Habspatrol]

Looking like Guy out there.

COLE!! Great pass by Suzi.

COLE!! Great pass by Suzi.

24 goals in what, 40 games, for the second liner? And that’s on a one line team where the opposing team can completely focus on him defensively. Not too shabby.

 

[Habsy]

Where are the assists!!!!!

 

[Krustchev]

Where are the assists!!!!!

In/at the Suzuki and the Dach.

 

[Habsy]

busts

It's nice of the Preds to showcase Askarov for us. Still needs some work but I still take him for the future.

We’re not in any big rush, are we?

 

[Habsy]

If a guy like that becomes available? You take him.

 

[Habspatrol]

Cole again!!
