Habs strategy seems to be to score in 25 per cent of their shots. Not a great strategy.

Everyone seems to be talking about Gallagher and how his three power-play points aren't enough to keep him on the second unit. But no one is talking about how Dobson is even worse with only two points on the second unit.
Replace Dobson with Matheson on that second unit, or go with 3F-2D.

Saw House of Dynamite last night. Wow, that was not a good movie. Repetitive with a disappointing ending.

The Habs could have a breakaway with an open net, and choose to pass.

How did the Habs lose? I mean, they averaged seven shots per period. That's not enough?

Love Mike Matheson. Excited that he's staying with the Habs. He does whatever is asked of him. Need to be the top PP guy for a year until Hutson is ready? Sure. Top PK guy? Why not. Leader? No worries.

Now 19 in his last 12.
Panarin had seven points in his first 14 games (and four of those points from one game).
He now has 16 in his last 12.

Another day, another weird tournament with GGPoker. Dude who won the tournament was all-in against me three times, I was favoured in all three, the guy won all four of them, and eventually won the tournament by calling a double allin with 53 offsuit.

We can add Jacobs to my list of injured players.

The Habs should look at other power plays to see what works. Last night, Pastramak is consistently moving with the man advantage. It shifts the defence around and helps get shots.
The Habs are generally pretty stagnant.

I'm sorry, but if you can barely get a shot on multiple 5-on-3 powerplays, you don't deserve to win a hockey game.

Yes, it makes sense to take your top power-play goal scorer off multiple long-term 5-on3s.

Put Matheson on the 5 on 3. At least we know he'll shoot the puck.

Why mix up the PP for 5 on 3 and put Dobson out there? Maybe this game will show it's not a good idea.
(Note. I'm not blaming Dobson, but it feels like a move for the sake of making a move, and it's not working).

Was playing a GGPoker turbo event. Was at the final table. Four left, chip leader. These were my hands the rest of the way. Hard to win when your best hand is A3 offsuit.

I haven't been keeping track, but I think the Blue Jays have left 57 players on base in this game.

Gimenez can't buy a hit this world series. His last three at bats, six men left on base, and Springer left on deck as the inning ends.

Why is Gimenez still allowed to bat there? Dude is something like 3 for 22, 0-3 tonight. Pinch hit!
