Suzuki wins it in OT - his 100th career goal. His 100th goal ties him with Serge Savard for 61st on the career goal by a Habs list Am I the only person shocked that the Habs have only ever had 62 players score 100 goals for them |

During the game I always want the Habs to win. Over the last couple of seasons there have been instances where, after a similar game, my son and I go back and forth about whether the one or two points are beneficial or not.
For me, this season, given how it is the third season in the basement of the league, it is preferable to see fight back and progress even if it means that Arizona and Ottawa finish below Montreal. By most scouting accounts that I have been perusing, finishing anywhere in the 2-10 range is sort of a wash. It will depend on astute prospect evaluation/scouting, a little on good fortune, and also on the positional priority of the clubs picking in front of Montreal.

The last 30 years we haven't had anyone score 40 in a season and had defensive first minded coaches. |

The first goal against, they just changed and had come onto the ice with the puck entering our zone. Bad luck there. With Slaf hurting, that might be part of the reason. And Nashville's on a roll. They're not a contender by any means, but they should beat us...and didn't. |

What a shot by Joshua wawa And stealing the puck from Josi. Nice! No one should sleep on this guy. He makes me think of Artturi Lehkonen, but with better hands. He is always in the right spot and makes the right decision. And how sneaky was that shot, huh? Wicked. |

What was that for? Anderson dropping the gloves with Schenn. Josh played his best game in a while. He was jacked about something. I wish he would fight more often. Don't care if he breaks his hand and is out for 20 games as he often disappears for 20 games so might as well go all out while he's able. |

👀👀👀 2 goals in 6 secs 2-2 David Savard must be one lucky bugger Did that up his trade value? |

So according to Gord Miller Nick Suzuki still has 99 goals, and Ryan Suzuki scored his first goal as a Hab
👀🙄
Gord Miller’s explanation? He has long had a mental block with the Suzuki brothers because both played in the WJC. That there tells you everything we need to know about TSN outside Toronto. I mean it’s not like one is a captain of one of the most profitable franchises , their best player, is becoming a PPG player and dominates most shifts he is on, … and the other most wouldn’t be able to tell you what league he is in , let alone what team he plays on

The way I looked at it was that it takes 5-6 years of averaging 15-20 goals. Or 2-3yrs of an elite sniper scoring 40+ |

It allowed me to look at all time regular season goals by team. I chose the original 6 teams because they have been around the longest and also looked at the Pens & Oilers because of their history of high scoring players. This is what I found looking for guys that had scored at least 100 goals: Bruins/Rangers - 61 players Leafs - 58 Chicago - 48 Detroit - 46 Pitt -34 Edmonton - 24 Feel free to check my numbers & point out any errors. I won't be offended.  It's an interesting exercise - an intersection of history and sport. |

You mean in addition to Suzuki? Suze is tough but he's not O'Reilly tough... he doesn't play a hard game... I am hopeful Slaf can become that hard to play against that guy. Suzuki is much closer to Patrice Brisebois than to Ryan O'Reilly, which I consider a good thing anyway. What I meant in more exact terms is that Suzuki has the ability to play a defensive game like O'Reilly and while he's probably a better skater than O'Reilly, he picks his spots when to go fast and that's one of the things that hurt him as juniour related to scouting. Scouts thought he was lazy when in fact he was just thinking 4 moves ahead and not being Josh Anderson. O'Reilly and Suze both make their linemates better too and have leadership qualities. Suzuki will, in time, end up higher up the food chain than O'Reilly has managed, and that's a real compliment if it happens. As you indicated, Slaf is more likely to be the net front presence that the Habs will need. (Along with Florian, natch) PS: I looked more closely at O'Reilly's stats and it was noticeable that he is another guy who never had a point per game season and yet was the top centre on a SC winning team. |
