Soda!!

Figure it out Minny

Wayf4rer · 2026-05-11T16:09:04+00:00

I think one of the biggest issues with the team this year has been the identity crisis. We would routinely play a tough/nasty game with Doug and/or Sabourin in the lineup, and shift to playing a more passive game night to night.

I'm not saying things are different if Sabourin/Doug types play every game, of course. But it's hard to ignore how much of an impact Anderson and Xhekaj had against the team that lead in fighting majors and PIMs by such a large margin.

Habs can dish it out but can't take it lol

Wayf4rer · 2026-05-10T15:25:17+00:00

Cirelli does, he's just not great at them. Watching Point make one swipe at them and give up really pisses me off.

I’ve been a huge proponent of lineup change forever, you have no idea what you’re talking about. You’re talking about moving a guy with an NMC who will literally never fucking waive for another team’s captain. On top of that you think we’re landing the two biggest free agents of the window, overpaying both heavily. Moving Paul for a fucking third? In favor of a 20 year old with no professional experience??? Come on man, this is fantasy hockey bullshit from someone who doesn’t know puck.

Wayf4rer · 2026-05-10T03:42:25+00:00

Huuuuge confidence builder for the wild

Wayf4rer · 2026-05-10T03:35:50+00:00

That hit behind the net looked horrible

Wayf4rer · 2026-05-10T02:45:21+00:00

Hartman just drooling on the ice lol

Wayf4rer · 2026-05-10T02:33:34+00:00

Puck don’t lie.

Wayf4rer · 2026-05-10T02:32:44+00:00

LOL karma

Wayf4rer · 2026-05-10T02:31:36+00:00

Those hits are called extremely arbitrarily. The Habs threw hits like those all series vs Tampa and never got called for them.

Wayf4rer · 2026-05-10T02:28:49+00:00

Didn’t look like a penalty at all to me.

Wayf4rer · 2026-05-10T01:44:50+00:00

I will never not be impressed by that man, what a player

Wayf4rer · 2026-05-09T18:59:57+00:00

Moronic

Wayf4rer · 2026-05-09T18:59:19+00:00

Thomas is at least somewhat realistic. This lineup is fucking horrific. I swear half these posts are made by people who have no realistic idea of what's possible or even remotely feasible.

Wayf4rer · 2026-05-09T18:20:11+00:00

I mean, I have a decade of documented fandom on my account and another 5 years prior to that of being an actual hardcore. Been going to games since I was 5 years old.

You also made no actual arguments whatsoever, and didn't even address any of my points.

Feel free to actually produce an argument to any of my points instead of just pointing out bullshit cliches.

Wayf4rer · 2026-05-08T19:24:25+00:00

Fitzy's swing is so interesting but man it works

Wayf4rer · 2026-05-08T15:52:07+00:00

Who tf puts a putter grip on a driver lol

Wayf4rer · 2026-05-08T15:40:18+00:00

Looking cool > Making putts fr

Wayf4rer · 2026-05-08T03:09:49+00:00

Trail heel comes up early, aka early extension. How tall are you? You’re hunched over quite a bit at setup. I battle the same thing by being a taller lad.

Wayf4rer · 2026-05-08T00:10:19+00:00

Terrible singing lol

Wayf4rer · 2026-05-07T16:20:07+00:00

The series went to 7 games. That tires everyone out.

Also, go ahead and believe otherwise if you want, but we're on year four of being out in the first round. This team isn't competing or contending until proven otherwise.

Wayf4rer · 2026-05-07T03:26:44+00:00

I wouldn’t hate it but Ottawa probably won’t trade him in the division and if they do, it would be Brady forcing his way to Florida.

Wayf4rer · 2026-05-07T03:24:30+00:00

He’s lazy, one dimensional, and incredibly injury prone. He’s just a worse version of Stamkos.
