Makes sense the Oilers would look at Babcock another disgraced HC to join their team much like disgraced and reinstated GM Bowman. If I’m McDavid I am out of there.

Always in OT, the unfortunate bounce for goal. Good effort by Canes and Bussi.

Win or lose, Bussi deserves the net in game 4.

Seen this before. So true. The sheep are weak and need to wake up.

Ron Maclean…retire!

Deep down we are loving the Vegas collapse.

Vegas back-2-back games of blown leads. Wow.

Just saw a 33, Patrick Roy Habs jersey in the Vegas stands lol

Wow!!! 3 quick Canes goals…fastest NHL history???

Toronto Maple Leafs fans watching Marner right now.

Mitch “Conn Smythe” Marner.

People might not hearing a Zharovsky or 1st in trades but like Gorton has said himself, you can’t keep waiting for 18 year olds each year as your core gets older each year too. These assets are here through smart asset drafting, trading and that management will allow to add pieces to win.

Listening to Godin and Basu, and Basu said “who else other than Larkin has or will ask for a trade?” With a poor UFA class and the cap rising expect a busy trade season before the Draft.

Verbeek and Yzerman are buddies, Anaheim makes sense for Larkin with a McTavish package…if Larkin is saying US teams only, as she holds the chips to a certain point with the NTC.

Maybe Trump will reveal his guilt with Epstein and other matters on his own one of there days after waking from his slumber and his dementia bringing him back to the good ole days with his best buddies.

Newhook could rock a cowboy hat with that cookie duster above his top lip. Lookout Lasso Montreal!

Why do I feel that Mason McTavish could be had for a package built around Kapanen? Being from Ottawa area and getting close to home, and the team dynamic the Habs have would probably be the right mix for him. He played with Xhekaj in Hamilton when they won the OHL Championship.

Only way Toronto under new management revisits the Knies deal, I think they ask for Hage as with the 1st pick the can have McKenna and him as their future linemates as per WJC. If HuGo even were to entertain that, they then lower their offer as high-end centres are more valuable.

Zharovsky coming to train and live with Demidov for 40 days, wonder if the Habs look at a monetary compensation package to his KHL team and get him here for next year to start in Laval?

Knies deal was a big one, one that makes sense as he’s 6’3” 223 lbs, Habs saw what Slaf was valuable on both the 1st and 2nd. 100%. HuGo were probably looking at addressing another top 6 wing and address the 2nd line centre this summer. Cost was high, but we know these deals are. Salary fit too.

Great to see Habs players winning hardware last year with Hutson for the Calder and this season with Suzuki for the Selke and Caufield for the Lady Byng. I see more hardware in the future, possible Norris and Rocket Richard individually…and of course the Holy Grail, Lord Stanley’s Cup! Congrats!

I don’t know why so many are shocked with Larkin requesting a trade. Larkin criticized his GM for not doing anything last season to help them make the playoffs. The moves this year were overpaying for players, and not the right ones. A Michigan boy wants to leave his home state. Has to be bad.

Why do they just shoot 3’s in the NBA…boring.

Gonna be a lot of clean shaven faces on Monday.

I believe these are the tough decisions HuGo will need to make this summer. 1) Reinbacher RD starts in MTL, they’ll keep Xhekaj, are Struble and Engstrom trade pieces? 2) Beck is ready, he’s bottom 6. What happens with Evans/Danault…Kapanen? 3) Will Gally want to be moved? 4) First pick in play?

BREAKING NEWS: Donald Trump has announced that if he can't have total control over an institution that by law he can't put his name on, he's happy to see the institution destroyed. Understand that while today the institution at issue is the Kennedy Center, soon it'll be America.

As much as this series might be a stinker for fans, it’s a stinger for the boys. They’ll grow and mature from it.

In the Stanley Cup finally coming to Toronto?

Our team has done amazing. These playoffs have been a blessing.

I’ll be looking forward to the Draft and to see what changes the Habs make over the summer as Hughes and Gorton are now 100% buyers and we are a destination team. Have a great summer, and look forward to chatting with all you amazing people!

Great season Montreal Canadiens! Losing 4-1 in the third round is not a failure, it’s an amazing accomplishment after losing 4-1 in the first round last year. This is the start of something special.

If you are cheering “we want the Cup”….you need to be winning games in the Finals first.

Great to break the shutout.

Struble mins played. Xhekaj could have played those.

Frankie Corrado said Habs have a 1st line centre, two 4th line centres and an extra forward (13th forward) centre. Carolina has a 1st line centre, 2nd line centre, 3rd line centre and 4th line centre. It’s a difference maker.

Hard work for 2026-27 starts tomorrow for the management team. Like TSN 690’s Jon Goyens said, when building lines you look for pairs. Top line pair is Suzuki and Caufield, second top pair is Slafkovsky and Demidov. You add a winger and centre and you have your top 2 lines. Address size and skill.

I don’t like Vegas, but I don’t like Carolina either. Won’t be watching the Finals, don’t want Carter Hart to win, but won’t be upset to hear Marner wins the Cup the first season he left the Leafs.

Should be straight time in the third lol

The injuries we hear about later I feel are going to be significant.

Hughes and Gorton can now go and concentrate on the NHL combine and start talking to GM’s about trades.

Oh my.

Guhle was labouring last game, and looks seriously hurt. Why Xhekaj wasn’t dressed makes zero sense.

Next 40 mins if you can, hit everything, crash the net and don’t give a shit. Play your hearts out!

Going out like this is going to make it a long summer for these boys. They will work harder to not have this happen again.

No adjustments with lines of players inserted or taken out…that’s something Marty needs to know is doable.

Look at the bench. They lost. Shoulders slumped.

Frustrated.

So many Sportsnet Channels not working…great contract NHL. All about $’s not quality.

Drive the net.
