What is the point then? Who am I being mean to, exactly?

It’s the perfect example of active viewing vs passive viewing IMO. It’s like the algorithm but for cable subscribers.

Not talking about the game though. Talking about specifically the last two minutes. It wasn’t just great saves. It was perfect goaltending.

As an Expos fan, I get it. It sucks but I get it. The Expos ruined the relationship not the other way around.

I wish he had a bit more respect for what it meant to the fans but I get it.

You don’t want to be made fun of, be louder. They have control of the situation.

I mean #31 played a long time!

It’s the same picture.

That was the best goaltending performance I’ve seen in a Habs jersey that wasn’t #31 since 2010 probably.

Jacob Fowler, you can probably throw out your Opus card that goes to Zone B.

Ottawa can come back and win this game and it will still be funny.

Doesn’t matter what happens in any game in Ottawa it will never not be funny when Habs fans are louder than Ottawa fans in their own building.

There ARE a lot of pending UFAs. Not the big names, but they are out there.

As we get closer to the Deadline, I wonder if the market goes from seller's market to buyer's market because the sellers asked too much and desperation sets in and they have to make moves... There are a lot of players out there.

Well yes, Kadri is unnecessary right now with Danault already in the fold IMO. Same with Trocheck.

Alternatively: They trade him, and in his first game at the Bell Centre, they have a video tribute for him and his family.

Let the Habs fans cook.

From a hockey perspective, I am fine with trading Michael Hage for a legitimate long-term top-six player.

From a personal perspective, the fact that Hage would be traded before getting the chance to play for the Habs would be devastating to me.

Who said they need an overhaul? Adding a new 4th line/3rd pair is not usually the way to go. Just like it wasn’t for Montreal when they added the three players I mentioned. You don’t need to add depth and grit. You need to add good players.

So was Steve Ott.

Fighting is a non-factor in the playoffs.

Marc Bergevin is in Buffalo and they decide to add the 2026 version of Ott, King, Martinsen in Carrick, Schenn, and Stanley.

Closest team to being eliminated is Toronto with a Tragic number of 32 so even farther to go for that to be in play.

With the Boston Fleet beating the New York Sirens in regulation, the magic number for Boston and Montreal to make the playoffs has dropped to 26. It was 35 just six days ago.

Still a long way to go, but something to keep an eye on. #PWHL

How I see you changing your argument after I prove you wrong.

lol... the New York Sirens play their games in an NHL rink. So do two other PWHL teams.

The PWHL averages over 8,600 per game this season. No one plays in an arena of under 7,200.

Try again next time.

You are correct, however the game on April 4 will be held at MSG and has sold out.

05.03.2026 16:25 πŸ‘ 6 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 1 πŸ“Œ 0

The PWHL has announced the games at TD Garden (BOS) and Madison Square Garden (NY) have sold out.

Ticket sales indicated this was coming anyway, but the post-Olympics boom is REAL.
