Does anyone else find it crazy that Elliotte Friedman openly discussed NHL referees seeking retribution against a “young team” for questioning their officiating? No hiding it. No questioning it. On the airwaves of the league’s rights holder @sportsnetpr.bsky.social #GoHabsGo  #NHL

“The Oilers won tonight, but they didn’t beat us,” said St. Louis. “As coaches, we watch video and try to get better. I hope the league goes through the same process.” www.sportsnet.ca/nhl/article/...

At 22 years and 88 days old, Trey Yesavage will be the second-youngest Game 1 starting pitcher in World Series history, older than only: 1947 Ralph Branca: 21y 267d

WORLD RECORD! 🥇 Canadian swimmer Josh Liendo breaks the short-course world record in the men’s 100m butterfly, clocking 47.68 seconds at the Toronto Pan Am Sports Centre! 🇨🇦🏊

Cole Caufield on the NHL officiating tonight, in which the Oilers got 5 consecutive PPs after the Habs scored 4 unanswered even-strength goals to take the lead: “I’m still trying to figure that out. Refs just kinda took over the game there. Kudos to them for winning it.”

Can I safely assume that penalties and goaltending were the biggest issues last night? #GoHabsGo

Another bang on video from Hockey Junkie. #GoHabsGo youtube.com/watch?v=Wgoc...

Mike Matheson yesterday on Ivan Demidov: “He works like crazy, which is really impressive. It’s contagious too for the team. He’s got so much ability, the sky’s the limit for him.”

Kirby Dach returns to the lineup tonight meaning Joshua Roy won't be dressed, will be interesting to see what that means for the lines. I believe he'll just slide in with Veleno and Bolduc because the other three lines are doing well. Bolduc's speed will help the line and Dach as well #GoHabsGo

#Habs Ivan Demidov's patience creates room for Mike Matheson OT goal vs #Flames Assists: Demidov, Newhook #GoHabsGo #NHL #Hockey @RocketSports.bsky.social

Jakub Dobes with the Habs this season: • 4-0-0 • 1.47 GAA •.950 sv % He’s still a rookie.

I would say that Dobes is the Habs number 1 goalie until proven otherwise.

Mike Matheson donne la victoire aux Canadiens, mais quelle passe d'Ivan Demidov! 🤩 #GoHabsGo

The Cardiac Kids strike again. 3 and 0 in overtime. The Call Of The Wilde for Global Montreal sees the Canadiens at the top of the standings after a win in Calgary. globalnews.ca/news/1149000...

Enjoy Oliver Kapanen as the third line centre for a decade. Heady player. He's Lehkonen basically lol

Habs coach Marty St. Louis on Ivan Demidov: “He’s got great feet, great deception, he’s got quick hands but he’s got a quick mind too. So he can execute fast what he sees and you saw that multiple times tonight.”

Dobes .949 on the season after 36 of 37 stopped. 2nd in the league. Dobes 7.8 in goals saved above expected. 3rd in the league. Rookie scoring Schaefer 7 Demidov 6

WHAT A SETUP BY DEMIDOV 🤩 The /CanadiensMTL take it in /Energizer OT!

From what I read here, it sounds like both goalies played extremely well tonight. Habs played well in the 1st, but Flames had the edge in the last 2 periods - that sound about right? What did everyone think of the game? #GoHabsGo

Our Habs rookies have gotten off to a great start!

Ivan Demidov loves a trap game. Feeds Mike Matheson to end it. #Habs take two points

Lane Hutson on his Habs teammate Ivan Demidov: “He’s my roommate on the road, so sometimes when we have a play to talk about, we’ll talk about it.” 👇👇👇

Since the #NHL return from the 4-Nations Faceoff last February, #Habs center Nick Suzuki has 47Pts in 33GP. Only David Pastrnak (48Pts, -3) has more. The #GoHabsGo captain has a league-best +22 rating since then.

I forgot to ask - how well did the Habs play against the Sabres? Looks like Dobes is the guy we should stick with.

Jake Evans today on the Jays playoff run: “There are a few die-hard fans in this dressing room so it’s been fun to watch them together…Gally is the obvious one, and Nick.” “I was jumping up & down (after the Springer HR). Gally was hugging everyone. It was a good moment.”

Habs captain Nick Suzuki yesterday on Team Canada 🇨🇦: “I want to be on that team. It was a great experience in Calgary (at the orientation camp) just getting to meet everybody. I just wanna have the best start that I could, try to put my name in the hat for that team. I just try to do my best out.”

FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 32 YEARS, THE TORONTO BLUE JAYS ARE WORLD SERIES BOUND! THEY DEFEAT THE SEATTLE MARINERS 4-3 IN GAME 7!

LETS F****€KING GOOOOOOOOOO BLUE JAYS WIN AND IS IN THE WORLD SERIES AFTER 32 LOOOONG YEARS. OMG 😱 UNBELIEVABLE 🥹 ❤️🍁🇨🇦TEAM CANADA FOREVER🇨🇦🍁❤️ ❤️🍁🇨🇦VIVE LE CANADA 🇨🇦🍁❤️

You can hear Habs players going crazy in the background after George Springer’s Jays home run tonight

Vladimir Guerrero Jr.’s 6 home runs are the most by a player with 2 strikeouts or fewer in his team’s first 10 games of a postseason Only other players with 6+ HR & 2 or fewer strikeouts in any 10-game postseason span: 1978-80 George Brett 1928-36 Lou Gehrig (3 overlap spans)

Vlad has a 1.000 slugging percentage right now. In an average playoff at bat, he is on first base. Ridiculous. He also has a 302 wRC+, highest ever for postseason with 10+ games played. Bonds' 2002 regular season was 244, for comparison.

Addison Barger launches a two-run shot to right field and the #BlueJays are up, 4-0. They’re full control here in Game 6 with Yesavage on the mound. What a start.

Vladimir Guerrero Jr.’s 6th home of the postseason ties him with Joe Carter and José Bautista for the most postseason home runs in #BlueJays history.

🚨RECRUTES HABSCAST #35 IS UP!!🚨 Evans has one goal in his last 33 games. So why is he out late in the last two games when the Habs need a goal? 🎙️FULL PODCAST HERE:🎙️ youtube.com/watch?v=xG2f... pic.x.com/r7r1mk8vxz

Yikes

You can say that again!

Sam Montembeault on his performance in the Habs loss tonight: “I’m gonna take most of the blame. I have to be better…The guys are working hard and playing well on both sides of puck. It’s on me to make the saves.”

#Habs prospect Bryce Pickford has 7 goals in 10 games with Medicine Hat... he's a defenceman

The Montreal Canadiens couldn’t mount yet another comeback against the New York Rangers. On the bright side, Demidov is looking more comfortable by the shift. Here’s the Call Of The Wilde for Global Montreal. globalnews.ca/news/1148343...

Y'all being real hard on the goalie. Now most of the time I think fans emotions lead over logic. But he did just let in a 55 foot point shot with no screen and no speed on it. Sam needs to find his .900 form, because he is not that guy yet this season.

Sam Montembeault tonight in a 4-3 Habs loss to the NY Rangers: - 22 shots against - 4 goals against - 4.21 GAA - .818 save %

Monty is a career .898 save pct. and 3.21 GA avg. The #Habs picked up him up on waivers, yes he had a better year last year but this is not Price or Roy we’re talking. The #Habs need to play the goalie that gives the team the best chance to win.

On a deserved loss after some miracle wins. The goalie needs to work on long shots and angles, the team needs to work on managing the game, and a loss creates urgency for all of them👇🏻 www.sportsnet.ca/nhl/article/...

🚨RECRUTES HABSCAST #35 IS UP!!🚨 Montembeault HAS to be better. For the time being, the Habs have to consider letting Dobes get the majority of starts until he falters. @blainpotvin.bsky.social 🎙️FULL PODCAST HERE:🎙️ youtube.com/live/BvkMNIq...

Missed the game last night. Not sure how well Monty played, but an .818 save % is not good. Through 4 games, his save % is only .857 and his goals saved above expected is -3.6. Those are some pretty bad numbers. He needs to find his game; otherwise Dobes is going to overtake him as 1A.

I'll be missing all the Habs games for about the next 3 weeks as we're on African safari. Relying on all you guys on here to keep me posted on how the Habs are doing! #GoHabsGo

#Habs Martin St. Louis on Juraj Slafkovsky "Slaf is fine. Offensively, could his touches be a bit better? Yes [...] Defensively, he's been really really good. It's not just in our zone. It's winning pucks back, it's tracking, doing what you're supposed to do when we get back in our zone" #GoHabsGo

Well, that sucks!
