This coming from the franchise who loves cheese with their steak!!!


Man this is fun

Let's talk about poutine, then.

I'm fine with the cheese curds, but gravy on potatoes is just lame. At least don't be so cheap and use actual meat as well. Without it, at best it's just a so-so side dish. Give me a good baked potato with sour cream and chives any day over soggy fries.

Man. That’s a great question. I don’t want to break up sanheim and Myers but I guess you have to. Myers with provy. Sanheim and hagg. Then ghost and braun?

Not true. You can get a major boarding penalty without a game misconduct.

Sadly I'm stuck in Canada. Someone mentioned that it was mandatory on one of the broad casts. Going based on that on this one. Haven't read a rule book in 15 years. So I'll take your word for it.

Same broadcasters on SN just announced 1 game. Burke is outraged.

Re: Niskanen’s one game suspension

I need to say this because I think I have criticized the DOPS a bit much in the past. They did this one right and the video description was clear and accurate, and I completely agree that it is fair. Great job.

It really is 2020, isn’t it! Scary stuff.

I’m blown away that it was just one game. That was a pretty brutal hit and Gallagher is out.

If so, I'm glad I'm wrong about it. It also tells me the NHL is not really serious about player safety.

Only one game, extenuating circumstances with Gallagher being a midget contributed in a major way to the injury. I don’t think he was aiming for his jaw.

I’ll say this about Ghost entering the line up. I personally don’t believe him to be a very good defenseman. If he doesn’t bring offense, he brings very little. Now mind you, this is only my opinion. With all of this said, Ghost is hands down our best offensive defenseman if he brings that offense. I believe Provorov is the right choice to run the first PP unit because not only is he our best all around defenseman, he’s a safer player while being on the ice. It’s like Timonen vs Streit. I believe Streit to be the more pure offensive player, with a much better point shot than Timonen but Timonen is gonna do all the right things once the puck leaves the zone. What I’m getting at is, if Ghost is the impactful player that some believe, tomorrow is his time to prove it.

Totally forgot teams aren’t allowed to specify player injuries. So Gallagher should have been “unfit to play”

So now Montreal will play inspired tomorrow and win 5 to 0. Then Hart will shut them out 1 to 0 Sunday. And world keeps spinning.

You forgot to add. I have a heart attack and the world keeps spinning. They prob won’t win tomorrow I agree. Losing niskanen hurts more than losing Gallagher.

Anybody concerned that Bill never wrote a post-game blog? I know the game is a let-down, but that's never stopped him in the past and he's been honestly critical where to lay the blame.

I hope he's OK, given the times we're in.

I was a bit concerned. He asked a question yesterday to Hart about the short side goal.

The NHL has never cared a whit about player safety.
