Exercise I'll either add an extra c after the x or an s instead of c or z instead of a. This often takes me a few tries

league better be warning the lightning about embellishment. or are they ok with them embarrassing their refs?

Look when the Ref's hand goes up. It's on the interaction down low. He was fooled by the embellishment

Here's the Kapanen penalty. When I saw it...I thought obvious high-stick above hashmarks -- and those penalties are being called in all series. Obviously, Canadiens (and their fans) feel arm went up late or actual penalty was ignored/missed.

Nick Suzuki you're out of the top 3 now that we have 2 minutes to Kapanen for Tampa player grabs his own face. I'm still undecided if this is 1 or 2 because I'm not sure what's worse the ref not paying attention and calling a penalty cause someone fell or getting duped by flagrant embellishment

It's crazy how many penalties the habs have gotten for things that literally didn't happen this season. I'm not talking judgement calls here I'm talking things that flat out didn't happen. They've got to be the league leaders in this this season

I said Habs in 6 to start this series and stand by it. Tampa got gifted a goal with a fake penalty. It's 2-2 without that. The Habs have been the better team the vast majority of this series. They'll win it

If there’s one NHL player you could put a bounty out on, why is it Nikita Kucherov?

Very spry for someone lying on the ice minutes ago

Called it

Wanna bet Kucherov is on the ice as soon as this 5on3 starts? Theatrics. That was the softest tap from Evans.

Kucherov will be out there for the 5 on 3 mark my words

That Tampa gets any benefit of the doubt after that comical dive is insane

Video evidence that the minor on #Habs Oliver Kapanen was not really a penalty #GoHabsGo #NHL #Hockey

The NHL has all these ways to review if a puck is a half inch behind a skate, and can check to see if a penalty needs to be increased or not. But can't check to see if a dude is faking getting a stick in the face lol

Tampa just drew a penalty because a guy grabbed his face That's brutal

Un-fucking believable. Full on fake penalty.

The Perry cut was so obviously not a penalty that even Cooper couldn't convince the refs it was a penalty

Perry tried to torque Struble around his hips, Struble was way too solid and Perry fell and got a stick in the face. Should not be a call.

I know the Avs are a cup favorite this year and an absolute wagon but maybe that series would've been a little more interesting if their opponent wasn't the team with the 7th fewest wins in the league. Just spitballing here but maybe there's a system where that kinda team isn't in the playoffs

I had my doubts about being heard at all when I first came here but I tried this at Brian's suggestion and it actually paid off so give it a shot even if you're feeling shy

The Canadiens take the series lead in a thriller in overtime. All the heroes in the horses, I whine about refs in the goats, and the suddenly dominant third pair is the cards. The Call Of The Wilde is written for Global Montreal. globalnews.ca/news/1181655...

Habs have already won more games in the playoffs this year than they did last year.

Numbers like this from your third pairing D is exactly what every coach wants to see

Playoff monster....Arber Xhekaj???

He's been so damn good, and I'm glad the numbers show that. He isn't gonna put up a ton of points, but damn if he isn't doing everything you want otherwise

That Texier-Dach-Bolduc line OWNED this game.

And that's why coaches coach and fans watch

WELCOME TO THE FUCKING BONE ZONE TAMPA

LETS FUCKING GO

The Lane train stays at a point per game in the playoffs so much for too small in the playoffs

Extremely impressed with the level of composure Arber Xhekaj has played with so far this series

Maybe now we should just all shut up and let Marty coach the team, eh?

again, the habs are absolutely not playing well enough but they're getting screwed by the officiating too and its pissing me off.

How in the actual fuck is that evened up? Cernak with a drive by elbow on Dobes after play is long over. Get out of here. Shameful.

There's definitely an appeal to having both Xhekajs in the lineup in the lawless land that is the NHL playoffs

Playing like that in OT in the playoffs is a deserve to lose offense. Absolutely no excuse for playing that poorly in OT

Need so much more from the top line right now, this is your moment guys

Gotta bury them on this one

Dude is actually playing like a horse. Anderson is a beast right now.

Slightly unpopular opinion but I'm fine with Slaf taking that fight but only because it pulls Hagel off the ice too. Anyone else I agree no fighting for him

Dear Hockey Gods, Thank you for what you did in game 1. I am once again asking that you help these guys play the best hockey of their careers and to KEEP THE HOCKEY MAGIC FLOWING THROUGH THE HABS. In Guy Lafleur's Name, Amen 🙏💙🤍❤️

That IS Brady Tkachuk

want to hear a fun bit of deployment from game 1? 100% of arber xhekaj's shift starts were on the fly according to moneypuck. marty, on the road, made xhekaj match-up proof and it worked. 81.8% xGF for xhekaj.

Slaf said before the season started he was sick of hearing the "he's still so young" excuses about him. Ain't nobody gonna make those excuses about him ever again

slaf Arrived this season and now he's arriving on the big stage

slaf you fucking animal

You have to quote me now 🤣 SLAF IS A MOTHER FUCKING BEAUTY 🌟💙🤍❤️ What a game, what a hattrick 🤩

Juraj Slafkovsky has that dawg in him.
