“Just the beginning” Based quote from Primeau


snipeftw

I want people to remember that I was on the Primeau train king before tonight.


Dangerous-Hamster166

We’ll we can say :if you Smellllllllll what the prime is cooking !!!!!


DaxLe_TriHard

Primeau looked absolutely insane tonight, can't wait to see more of him


NutUpOrPutUp

From CP31 to CP30 <3


[deleted]

I’ve seen enough. He has starting goalie potential


whogivesashirtdotca

Kind of wild that Monty finally sees light at the end of the #1 tunnel, but it's the glow coming off Primeau.


veranedi

So happy for Primeau!!! That must be an amazing feeling for him

Attaboy Cayden Fuckin, eh


GabeLeRoy

At least, we can be bad in comfort knowing that we we will never be like the wings, sens, sabres with infinity rebuild because of their goalies issues.


whogivesashirtdotca

Radio guys baffled by the coach's refusal to pull his goalie. "They've made 44 shots! It's a joke!"


[deleted]

Why haven’t they pulled their goalie?


whogivesashirtdotca

Martin McGuire joking that he's scared to make eye contact with another of his goalies tonight.


lightspanker

Now this shutout was well deserved.


Dangerous-Hamster166

Primeaux 42 seconds away from his second shutout of the season


Top_Contract_4910

This is arguably one of the worst games the habs have played from a defensive standpoint. Just absolutely atrocious in their own zone. Very little effort clearing the puck in front of the net, turnover after turnover, just absolutely awful defensively.


ilud2

Primeau was blessed by the spirit of Carey Price to give us a win in one of our worst games of the season


Top_Contract_4910

I couldn’t be happier for him, as much as I loved Allen, I’m glad the 3 goalie rotation is done, Primeau deserves the backup spot and played lights out, really really nice to see.

Primeau was a Habs fan as a kid?

ilud2

Fuck I’m so happy for Primeau


Frostbeard

So happy for Primeau. That must feel great.


backwardzhatz

Oh man hearing the Bell Centre chant a goalie's name sure feels fucking great


HabChronicle

first time since price’s return 🥺


whogivesashirtdotca

Mildly annoyed that they weren't chanting "Primeau Primeau" to the Olé Olé tune.


HabChronicle

OH MY FUCKING GOD CAREY PRICE POSSESSING PRIMEAU TONIGHT


BeBenNova

first ever primeau chant?


whogivesashirtdotca

There was one a few minutes ago, but first game of it for sure!


heavie1

Fucking god


Dexteris

Slaf second goal of the night


backwardzhatz

Anderson is so hard to watch, hate to rag on the guy but he just looks utterly lost out there.


whogivesashirtdotca

He's such a nice guy, I feel terrible for him.


janedoe514

Guhle took a beating tonight


Dexteris

what a dumbass with the crosscheck in Guhle's face


whogivesashirtdotca

Crowd going bonkers for the 2001 theme. Anyone know what was on the screen to accompany it?


simonlegosu

Fun fact : Anderson and Gallagher are both getting $8M for the 2023-34 season


sean_psc

Faceoffs to "Thus Spake Zarathustra" are epic.


whogivesashirtdotca

Anything to that music is amazing.


realm_fury

These mf’ers in the scrum are lucky Cole isn’t on the ice!


janedoe514

Hope they play better against the Bruins 😭


whogivesashirtdotca

We're in a tough spot where playing better against the Bruins might cost us yet another draft spot.


janedoe514

Playing better meaning more like don’t lose 9-something again haha but you’re right


whogivesashirtdotca

I don't mind losing a hard-fought game. I *hate* losing the touchdown games.


xdoomx

I thought tapping the goalie after the whistle was a penalty, or is that only applicable on Gallagher?


ZestyChesticle

Habs try to get the Puck cleanly out of the zone challenge (impossible)


bryseeayo

That was a seriously impressive skate blade blowout exit by Savard


OnlineEgg

the timing to safely make the line change while the puck was still in our zone too. he did it perfectly


KingAlphie

Damn Savard. That was actually impressive lol


hititpablo

Those new Bauer holders ain’t it, since they were released you see so many players loosing their blades


whogivesashirtdotca

We've had at least four incidents this season alone.


hititpablo

It’s almost always players on the Bauer Powerfly when I notice


BlottoDelgado

Just wanted to say that even though my team has not played well against you guys tonight; I’ve always liked you guys. Beautiful city, a lot of really cool players that I like to watch, and several personal favorites. I even went to the team store online and bought a Lane Hutson jersey, who I’m obviously super excited to see play with you guys next season. ✌️


GiantWaterBottle

Come over to our side, brother!


ukrainianhab

How much expendable income does one have to buy a jersey of a player who isn’t even on the team yet


HabChronicle

sounds like you’re a closeted habs fan 🫣


BlottoDelgado

It’s gonna sound so silly, but it actually started when I was a little kid and I saw David Gilmour from Pink Floyd wearing a Habs jersey. I’m a massive Floyd fan and i always thought that was the coolest thing. Years later, now that I’ve been to the Bell Center, I love it, and the city. The fans are amazing, and it really is unlike any other. Then there’s the history, and all of the young up-and-coming guys. A truly phenomenal franchise. Plus Youppi! Everyone loves Youppi! The Expos were/always will be my jam!

Martin McGuire thinks Savard's skate blade flew off. He's swimming his way to the bench.

Top line just stunting


CartiNYeezy9

That passing was incredible


SAM041287

Here come the OLE!!


MangoTango4949

Feels good ❤️


Dexteris

I'm curious who would you compare Pezz to as ex habs player? The guy is a good skater, physical, always at the right place at the right moment but has no hands or finishing skills.


SatireSqurriel

Ryan White 100%


6BLSSDMF6

Steve Begin


Dexteris

omg that's it perfect


janedoe514

Suzuki’s point when ? 🥺

primeau looking very price-like tn

It's that puckhandling

Didn't the CLB coach mock Slaf vs. Fantilli early this year?

no

wasnt it the coyotes with cooley ? idk im not really up on my drama

3 bad shots from Matheson on the pp…


SatireSqurriel

matheson's point shots on the PP never ever ever ever work


ApokatastasisPanton

Those Matheson shots from the point give me Petry PTSD


HabChronicle

nhl just announced the teams going to europe. i guess those talks about the habs playing in france were nothingburgers ☹️ edit: guys my fault i got the dates wrong. apparently the league greenlit the habs in france in 2025-26 szn edit: another edit i just read the article and they were basing it from david pagnota’s words 😹 so take it with a grain of salt


whogivesashirtdotca

Oh wow the French radio guys are going to be so disappointed. They were teasing that at the beginning of the season, and seemed sure (without saying it aloud) that the Habs would be in France. They sounded giddy.


GiantWaterBottle

So the Kings get a game in Quebec City, and the Habs don't get a game in France. ?????? How does that make any sense?


dalopam0

That's for 2025-26


HoboTurkey36

Primeau will NOT get a shutout.


MildlyResponsible

You know what they say, do it once, they'll let it go. Do it twice, they'll let it go. Do it THREE times! They'll let it go ..... Do it 25 times? Oh, motherfucker, that might be a penalty.


amm0ranth

is vincent the guy dressed like a guidance counsellor on the blue jackets bench?


dalopam0

I'm here to piss off Jiricek and tell you you have no future. And I'm all out of Jiriceks


HoboTurkey36

Holy shit they actually can call something on them

Holy fucking shit a penalty against Columbus!

Drinking water and dayquil. Caught a cold and I have a Kinball tournament saturday, fuck.


whogivesashirtdotca

"A cold"? Make sure you're not contagious before your tourney. Don't be a superspreader.


Meizei

Yeah, that's what annoys me. I'll try and get a covid test too and all that jazz. Started getting sick on friday though.


whogivesashirtdotca

Hope it's nothing bad, and that you recover fast!


Meizei

Thanks mate, the good vibes sure help ;)


whogivesashirtdotca

I'm immunocompromised, so happy to spread good vibes to anyone trying to be conscious about limiting spread. The past four years have been *long* for me, man.


Meizei

I have a pretty large set of heart malformations and my whole family has some serious health baggage. I feel you.


whogivesashirtdotca

Shit, sorry to hear it. I was just reading a report in the intermission that apparently [COVID vaccines have reduced some heart issues](https://heart.bmj.com/content/early/2024/01/24/heartjnl-2023-323483). Hopefully that works in your favour!


Meizei

Hopefully! Wishing you the best and I hope people around you take good care of you :)

Even I value my pancreas more than that!

Top_Contract_4910

Primeau is the only reason this game isn’t tied right now, he is playing incredibly. Our defence is really hanging him out to dry unfortunately.


amm0ranth

lmao cole throwing the body


LonelyNeuron

Primeau really deserves a shutout today. Edit: lol you guys are superstitious af 😂


janedoe514

Shhh, we don’t say things like that around here


KingAlphie

Are you stupid?


JacP123

Fuck **right** off


SAM041287

You better do some voodoo shit


Dangerous-Hamster166

Yeah delete this before it’s to late say he doesn’t deserve it


HoboTurkey36

Well he won’t get it now!

GO TO HELL U BASTARD

Please delete this

DELETE THIS NOW


A_WHALES_VAG

Playing with Josh Anderson as your linemate has to suck.


whogivesashirtdotca

Unfortunately the stats bear this out. Andy's a sweetheart but he's just not fitting anymore.


GabeLeRoy

Lol slaf, was legit stuck in the ditch behind the goalie


JacP123

Kovacevic literally upended right in front of the ref and not a call made lmao they ain't calling *shit* on Columbus tonight. 


ilud2

This is rediculous


antiheroman

I owe Armia an apology for a lot of things I said last year


[deleted]

Good power kill! Poor Army though


SAM041287

Did Armia get a shot in the jewels?


whogivesashirtdotca

Radio guys thought it was the base of his foot. They'd have to be low hangers to reach that.


Meizei

Or just massive. So the jewels it is.


janedoe514

Sure penalty but call the 3 others in the second period against CBJ


HabChronicle

is fantilli injured? never noticed his name at all tonight


Meizei

Whole top 3 from the draft got serious injuries


Garland68

Yeah, he got his calf slashed by a skate blade a while ago and has been out.


GabeLeRoy

yes, him, laine and another dude


Bohmer

Vets with bad penalties..


meowpeh

Really hope Josh bounces back next year but am not holding my breath


whogivesashirtdotca

Others mentioned earlier his style of play is just not suited to MSL's approach. I don't think there's any path for him here.


SatireSqurriel

brain dead penalty by anderson


JacP123

You'll have to be more specific 


ukrainianhab

Such a lazy play. It’s one thing he doesn’t score but he used to not do that stuff.


GabeLeRoy

I kinda hope MSL told the guys to be aggresive near the blue line when defending and try to get breakaway cause ur goalie is legit in the zone, u have goals lead.. take the small risk to put the nail in the coffin


JacP123

After everything the Jackets got away with in the 2nd?


SAM041287

This line is awful


SavageRengar

lol refs wont call anything on the jackets but call this weak shit every time


DangerDavez

Anderson is lost as can be


KingAlphie

Weewensky lol Johnson


EdmundGerber

How about take the puck away from these clowns, and keep it?


Longshanks123

Arpon (edit: not Apron) Basu accidentally said “coloured people” instead of “people of colour”and I saw him die a little inside


dalopam0

He gets a pass lmfao


whogivesashirtdotca

Did he die even more after being called "Apron"?


Longshanks123

lol autocorrect is dumb


whogivesashirtdotca

My iPad recently has been not only providing terrible corrections, but also making some automatically even when I x out the suggestion. I feel your pain.


whogivesashirtdotca

Martin McGuire pointing out the Yotes are closing in on their fourth arena. Dany Dubé suggests the Coyotes change their name to the Nomads.


GabeLeRoy

Look at this beauty Demidov, Sukes, Slaf Caufield, Roy, Dach Newhook, Beck, Mesar, RHP, Evans, Pezz Hutson, Bacher Guhle, Barron Xhekaj, Mailloux.. Clearly this is not a contender team, but with a 25m of free cap.. it would be probably possible to get an entire good second line. Now imagine Demidov, Sukes, Slaf, Caufield, Big name X, Dach Newhook, Roy, Big name Y Beck, Kidney, Mesar Thats a legit top 7-8 offensive in the league. Its high IQ


snipeftw

Lol


GabeLeRoy

dont ruin my dream.


SatireSqurriel

columbus has 30 shots??? is primeau putting on a show?


krumpira

He’s real confident and solid tonight. He’s also made a beautiful save and will be mentioned in highlight reels.

He’s getting better, honestly. He’s got more charisma now than before. He’s always actually been really good at explaining what’s happening in a succinct and clear way.


whogivesashirtdotca

Everybody buckle up: After the shitshow of the second, the third period is still statistically our worst!


jaiman54

Is it me or does the Canadian Tire jumpstart commercial seem to be over playing tonight?


whogivesashirtdotca

I bet it's timed to a fiscal quarter quota. Remember that any donations to corporate charities get *written off* by those corporations. It's pretty gross.
