Playoff GDT | Game #6 | Saturday - 5/16/26 8:00 PM EST (Series: Habs 3 - Sabres 2)

I don't believe we have played well this series, and what happened last night could have easily come to pass in games 3 and 5(although I endured some ridicule for saying so after game 3, I stand by it) if not for Dobes. We can't start games, cover or clear the defensive zone,and Sabres have had a straight path to the net. Fortunately, Buffalo has allowed us to capitalize on opportunities to remain in the series, and we've shown bursts.
 
Lane Hutson. He is standing above and beyond those in the top group as a true playoff warrior at this point in their careers.. It was so obviuos last night. He just never gave up, at times tried to will the team to life.Wow!

Dobson is clearly not 100%, Carrier is too small, Guhle has not been the same since he returned from his injury and is playing on his wrong side, and Matheson is just Matheson (the good and the bad). So the D at the moment is basically Lane. That's not enough against a deep team like Buffalo. Matheson will have to play a big one tomorrow.
 
D has good and bad games. It is what it is. Team is playing .500 ball in the playoffs vs good teams.

Series should have been over in 5 as you predicted. The scum haven't gotten anything since game 1 that wasn't gifted to them. Last night was an historically bad gift from us.
