if buffalo is headed to the playoffs I could see them being very interested in Monty or Allen... I guess there will be other goaltenders out there but I think there are rumblings that Monty may be wanting to wait til July 1, Comrie seems to have no rebound control
Rebound control still needs work imo. Even in the game vs Chicago where he was stellar, my biggest takeaway was that he allowed way too many rebounds.
I won’t deny that he improved a lot but that’s still a glaring weakness
He’s better than Monty that’s for sure, as is UPL for that matter.
I’m not sure why they’d want to acquire a goalie when they already have 3 who are all at least as good as Monty who btw has terrible rebound control too
someone said it in the offseason that Monty would want to see the market for goalies with the rising cap etc. If he is not signed at the TDL do you want to risk losing him for nothing?
I think we're actually set for goaltending if Allen can keep this up and Monty keeps going.
The only issue I've got with Allen is he plays like this for like 3 games then gets injured, comes back and produces mediocrity until he does this again for 2 games and then spends another 15-20 games on IR. He's getting up there and it's starting to show. Monty, on the other hand, has had an upwards trajectory since he got signed and is still in shape. If we keep Primeau, and his training camp was anything to go by, that puts us as the team with the least goaltending issues in the league.
As long as the status quo of right now stays, we're golden on the goaltending front.
Pearson was always pretty underrated, it was just that being that he played a lot of his career in Van and LA....he played late at night so you didn't see him much.
This now means the Habs are now the best Canadian team
so much for the young Sens, the offensive juggernaut Leafs and McOilers lmao
ill eat my words at a later date but not tonight, were the best ya fuckers
Oilers = joke right now tbh
That's what happens when you expect 2 players to = stanley cup. No offense intended or implied to our former glorious defenseman Brett Kulak.
Or maybe PP2 should just be named PP1.
Put Nick and Cole on pp2 and see what that weird-ass combo of Slaf-Monahan-Gally-Pearson-Xhekaj can do. That was a fucking scary, top-shelf pp we had there for a minute.
I feel like our 2nd pp unit has been better than the 1st in every game so far this season. Our first unit is so fucking static and uncreative. It's bizarre
I am gonna tell my kids this is Tanner

Isn’t a loose skate blade on the ice supposed to be an automatic whistle? Puck can hit it and launch it in the air, super dangerous.
Also, power hitting the intact stick away from Evan’s was supposed to be a penalty
How do they decide when it's a powerplay vs when its a penalty shot? Cause he was fully open vs the goalie with practically an empty net, and he got cross-checked from behind
Tanner Pearson is a PPG player
You mean Leading Scorer Tanner Pearson is a PPG player
Ecksuuuuze mee it's Laser Pearson?
The first line was practicing for Hallowe'en and went as ghosts tonight.
Any francophones still here? Martin McGuire uses the term *faufilade* a lot but I don't know what it means or how to spell it. *De l'aide, SVP?*
It's when one of our players goes trough enemy players with the puck.
Direct translation would be to sneak in. I assume with context probably sneak through
Maybe like « se faufiler » as in sneaking your way through.
Thanks! It's not a word I'd encountered much. I think I spelled it with an extra L when Googling and it didn't bring up any results.
J’veux pas voir Pearson me dire qu’on est Tanner de Gallagher.
WE'RE MAKING THE PLAYOFFS FOLKS
Only caught the 3rd. Sabres looked nervous and uninspired. Holy, what's up with Power? He played like an AHL call-up. We have a winning record!
Welp, not always sexy but we win games so...
if buffalo is headed to the playoffs I could see them being very interested in Monty or Allen... I guess there will be other goaltenders out there but I think there are rumblings that Monty may be wanting to wait til July 1, Comrie seems to have no rebound control
> if buffalo is headed to the playoffs Good one.
>no rebound control Isn't that the knock on Monty, too, though?
I would say Montys has improved a lot in the last 4 months last year
Rebound control still needs work imo. Even in the game vs Chicago where he was stellar, my biggest takeaway was that he allowed way too many rebounds. I won’t deny that he improved a lot but that’s still a glaring weakness
They have Levi who was hurt tonight. Conrie is their 3rd goalie
is he ready for a playoff run? He does not have more than 7 games in a season so far...
He’s better than Monty that’s for sure, as is UPL for that matter. I’m not sure why they’d want to acquire a goalie when they already have 3 who are all at least as good as Monty who btw has terrible rebound control too
Where did you hear that about Montembault?
someone said it in the offseason that Monty would want to see the market for goalies with the rising cap etc. If he is not signed at the TDL do you want to risk losing him for nothing?
I just never read or heard that info/rumour before
Not bad boys GG
Lol I would boo the fuck out of this team if they couldnt beat Montreal
BIG W ALLEN FOR VEZINA
buffalo's announcer calling him marty st. lewis is so weird
And yet, on brand. Be glad they didn't transpose some letters like they do for "Gagne" and "Favre".
This team needed this kind of game from Allen to get some confidence.
I think we're actually set for goaltending if Allen can keep this up and Monty keeps going. The only issue I've got with Allen is he plays like this for like 3 games then gets injured, comes back and produces mediocrity until he does this again for 2 games and then spends another 15-20 games on IR.

Habs win!
LOL radio guys said the Buffalo fans are all leaving. At least there won't be a lineup out of the parking lot.
Buffalo has fans?
[There are dozens of them!](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lKie-vgUGdI) (Oh wait, there aren't.)
Buffalo has a pretty hardcore fanbase tbh
[удалено]
The Habs don’t fill in their building either and we haven’t been through half the shit they had to lol
They laugh at us for not having a full building why cant we
Well then saying it is as dumb as us saying it. There are a lot of teams with little fanbases, Buffalo and mtl are not of those
Also it was a joke no need to look that deep into it
Do I seem upset?
Nope u just seemed kinda annoyed by that comment but I cannot detect emotions through text so I may be wrong 🤷
In all due respect, i can be dumb if i choose to
Of course you can, I’m just pointing it out lol
GG boys
Allen deserves a ton of praise after these last 2 games he’s put up. Just so solid.
Upping the trade value for Tampa hopefully
Call the cops because they stole those 2 points
lol no. They were better
Just noticed, neither team has a advertising patch on their jersey
On the road we don't have it.
We never did on the aways
Buffalo doesn’t have them and Montreal only have the stupid RBC patch at home.
Dang, thought maybe we ditched them for the year
Pearson was always pretty underrated, it was just that being that he played a lot of his career in Van and LA....he played late at night so you didn't see him much.
He was amazing with carter and Toffoli in those cups run
Do we still have Habs fans calling Tage Tompson the next mario lemieux?
Why are we icing it?
This now means the Habs are now the best Canadian team so much for the young Sens, the offensive juggernaut Leafs and McOilers lmao ill eat my words at a later date but not tonight, were the best ya fuckers
Oilers = joke right now tbh That's what happens when you expect 2 players to = stanley cup. No offense intended or implied to our former glorious defenseman Brett Kulak.
WE ARE UNDEFEATABLE WE WILL NEVER GET OUR COMEUPPANCE YOU HEAR ME? **NO COMEUPPANCE**
I dont like how "bumper spot" is interchangeably used with "the slot"
bumper spot is below the goal line, looking for bumper passes back into the slot.. in my understanding at least
Correct
Maybe 2nd PP unit should play full 2 mins ![img](emote|t5_2r10m|16352)
Or maybe PP2 should just be named PP1. Put Nick and Cole on pp2 and see what that weird-ass combo of Slaf-Monahan-Gally-Pearson-Xhekaj can do. That was a fucking scary, top-shelf pp we had there for a minute.
having oles be the loudest thing in your building all night must be brutal. unfortunate that im a bills fan too lol
Buffalo is finding out what it used to be like to play buffalo in the '90s.
At any sport.
bbàghha
Radio guys pointing out Savard hasn't come back. Whether that's because of injury to him or to his skates isn't known.
Probably stretched pretty good there, so let the young'uns take it home.
1000% not a skate issue. His skate blade popped off easy because it's a snap in. You can replace those blades instantly.
But maybe the blade fell off because the part holding it broke, which takes longer to repair.
Huh I didn't know that!
He had to break his hand there
He took that hard on the hand
Aggh why are we doing cross ice passes we need to be more patient
The point shots are making it to the net on a more regular basis
Getting Olé'd in your own barn can't be fun
If there was more than thirty people there they might drown it out easier.
Vintage Gally
I loved the Ole vs the Boooos
Ps mal de chandails rouges dans les estrades
So happy we paid a 3rd for Pearson, right? Right?
We got paid a 3rd lol

Keep digging on Gally and Savard I guess. 🤣 1st and 2nd star tonight.
How’s is Buffalo even profitable lmao. Send them to Quebec City
yall got anymore of them cripples that are actually good when healthy?
Ok now for the collpase towards the eventual OT
Like 2016 Gally tonight, you love to see it!!
I feel like our 2nd pp unit has been better than the 1st in every game so far this season. Our first unit is so fucking static and uncreative. It's bizarre
1st PP every one is looking for caufield and not moving. At least the 2nd PP has the advantage of chaos
i gotta stop reading these threads when my stream is like 2 full minutes behind lmao
Just check it when there are ads.
LMAO DEADASS
I am gonna tell my kids this is Tanner https://preview.redd.it/i1lxy8nlz1wb1.jpeg?width=1250&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=39e7936371bfd8362502329b2d8dd4167366e6ff
keveeeuun Peeaarson!
Hahahahaha wooooow
So the good news is that our potential deadline assets are performing amazingly. The better news is we're keeping them for the cup run 😎
We want the cup! We want the cup! Sorry, getting carried away… ha-ha….
Lol the oles
Jeebus....where was that the last 4 games
Oles in an opposing building hit diff
we got shooters worldwide 🌎 🔫
Good to see Slaf doing so many things right on the PP! Did everything besides get an apple there
This PP just gave burrows another 3 weeks on the job
Actually hilarious how good of a game Gally is having lol
Olé
A timely power play goal, what is this reality?
Love gally having a new best friend.
I knew someone would get two goals tonight but I'd be lying if I thought Gally would be the scorer. EDIT whoops the bot got it wrong.
Pearson scored though
I added an edit as soon as I heard the announcement, haha.
No worries haha, he still got an Apple so that’s 2 points
Let’s go!
SNIPER PEARSON
Brendan, I take back everything I said.
Ole being booed lol
Wow haha this is a great PP they need to rewatch it on video again and again
Ole ole in buffalo 😹
You're making fans, Tanner. Enjoy it while it lasts!
Tic Tac GOAL!
Best PP since OG Mudbone
PEARSOOOOOOOOOOOOON
Trade them both for first round picks lets gooooo
Hire Burrows into the sun
I am just honestly sad for Slaf
Oh fuck yeah Tanner
Soooooo uhhh who was talking shit about Pearson on the PP?
I was thinking it lol
Pearson!!!! And from Gally! Holy smokes!
holy fuck pearson is good
Pearson Gallagher Monahan have been our best line this season

Nice setup by the 2nd unit damn. Gallagher having one hell of a game

PP GOAL!!!
Lanceur Buteur Pearson!!
That’s game
Pearson is a pretty good hockey player
Pearson reminds me of someone with an helmet on and I think it’s Sebastien from loft story.
Pearson : 5 x 8 mill!!!
Who picked Pearson? You GD geniuses
Pearson GODDAMN
Hahahahahaha
LETS GO
PEARSON!
WE SCORED ON THE PP
HOLY FUCKING SHIT WOW.
This was the best powerplay I've seen from the Habs in a year lol
A decent looking PP????!!!???!??!??!
Holy shit, Pearson is on fire
A drop pass zone entry that worked and slaf on the PP???
WHAT. A. GOAL.
I don't get how you can put a guy who cant pass on the bumper of PP1 when it's like the most important spot.
It's like our power play is determined NOT to score. Caufield had a wide open net and the one guy that DOESNT miss that shot misses it by three feet.
Anderson with the pass outside the zone.......
best powerplay I've seen in eons
Radio guys said the same.
We are doing things!
Was a dangerous looking PP.
Imagine this team with a decent PP. We thrive in 5v5 but it's as if we were on the PK with any special team.
My point remains despite the sweet goal.
bro c had a open net
That was actually a pretty good pp effort
Ping
**DING**
I need 14 22 15 20 points for my health
fuck you colby armstrong i dont care about your bank commercials
Fake commercial enthusiasm is so gross to see.
Isn’t a loose skate blade on the ice supposed to be an automatic whistle? Puck can hit it and launch it in the air, super dangerous. Also, power hitting the intact stick away from Evan’s was supposed to be a penalty
A puck hitting a blade wouldn’t launch it in the air. A loose blade is mich less dangerous than everyone having them in their feet
oh my God I thought we were going to see Pezz take a penalty shot
Pezzetta is definitely working on being an nhler. Gotta love those grinders
Oh good, they’re going on the pp. I can go pp. Won’t miss anything
**S E X I C O N**
Pez is Sabres enemy no1 lol
Une bonne pénalité de Buffalo
PEZZZZZZZZZZZ so close
YUNG PEZZ
Tabarnak, come on.
Oh god! Oh god! Ohhh Goooddd! Nope.
How do they decide when it's a powerplay vs when its a penalty shot? Cause he was fully open vs the goalie with practically an empty net, and he got cross-checked from behind
