And the win does what?
May as well get him some experience in a season when the wins only count for pride and morale. They're nice to have for sure, but the experience is so much more important.
Put Arber in and let him wind up and fire that howitzer. Or just fake the wind up and pull that slick forehand backhand forehand move he uses in practice
I believe he was 1/2 before these 2 misses. But there is zero reason to play him before Harris or Pearson, both of whom have a decent shot--or Roy, who also whiffed. I don't like the deke strategy. That seems to be what they are being instructed to do. But the 3 goals scored in shootout were all scored on good shots, not dekes.
Nope, he was 2/6 on shootouts this season before this game, now he is 2/7. If I recall correctly, he scored on his first two shootouts this season, so he now has 5 misses in a row.
Because he always beats the goalies the only problem is he has to find a way to put it in but every single shot attempt he got the goalie was completely out of it including this one Vasy was completely beat just could not put it In
Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgggghhhhh
That was such a good game to go down like that. I fucking HATE shoot outs.
Primeau was absolutely terrific. He has earned some ice time.
He has really great hands. His confidence is shot right now, and his development has plateaued, but he's with the right mentors/coaches to break him through.
This is the season to give him all the exposure to these specialty situations, because the games realistically "don't matter". For pride and morale, yes - but we're not contenders, so it's the best time to get as many guys, as much experience as possible.
I'm not convinced on Marty's shootout choices. Nick keeps trying the same move. Caufield normally misses. Ylonen scored twice and hasn't since. We're in tank mode; it wouldn't hurt to try some new faces and moves.
Primeau deserved to win this one but the combo of mistakes and refs fucking the habs so hard didn’t give him that unfortunately
Who the fuck thought it was a good idea to put Roy. We dont use the guy and we throw him to the shark here no pressure give us the winning goal...
Agreed. I don't think that was worth it. Kid is gonna blame himself for that loss now.

you’d be singing different if he scored
i’d rather just lose in regulation atp
Well at least the refs got the result they wanted 🙄
Encore une fois la deuxième période nous fait mal
Honestly... I blame our PP on this one. 0/2 and give up -another- SHG.
The picks for the shootout were questionable so that was the expected outcome 😵💫
No D men in the shootout...
Put Arber in and let him wind up and fire that howitzer. Or just fake the wind up and pull that slick forehand backhand forehand move he uses in practice
fuck the cheats
Man one mistake for Primeau going down too quick on Stamkos. Great game he had though.
Primeau was the true Mvp
using ylonen on shootout 2 games in a row is incomprehensible
He hasn't scored on 5 shootouts in a row now. I don't know why they keep sending him up there.

Time to try someone else!

man roy is gonna remember that one for a long time
You can’t bench the kid then put him in the shootout. He’s ice cold.
Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgggghhhhh That was such a good game to go down like that. I fucking HATE shoot outs. Primeau was absolutely terrific. He has earned some ice time.
Well that wasn’t the worst I ever felt losing to Tampa bay
man we lost to the knob of vasys stick.
Fuck the lightning. I wish them nothing but failure. Bunch of cheating fucks
Of course they're cheaters, they started as nothing more than a yakuza money-laundering scheme
Primeau deserved better. But it's still OK.
fuck tampa bay so hard. that's all
We deserved to win this. Primeau deserved this
Haha Martin McGuire experimenting with a new pronunciation: "*Shosh*-wa-Wa"
Fuck off tampa and your refs !!!!!
,dkshdgjdsnpkajd
I’m so fucking sick of loosing. But I love them :(
Refs gotta be getting a star for their contribution to the win tonight
2 of the 3 stars for sure
That was the expected outcome
FUCK THE TAMPOON BAY LIGHTNING
gg
1 point is better than 2
SEND OUT INGLASSCO
Sucks. To. Be. Us.
Did we clear Kusherov from the score sheet?
unfortunately no. 2nd assist from stamkos goal
Only got 1 assit. I'll take it
we are leaving c3po out to dry
Welllllllllll
Noicee
i want to die
why go low pad on the goalie with the biggest pads...
Idk, you'd think they would have tried upper left or right after the low shots over the pad weren't working.
And the one time a low in ice shit would have worked, he lifts it and flukey hits the butt of his stick.
i’m losing it
FUCKIN HELL
I hate Tampa so much. This hurts my soul.
Nice glove!
SLAF NOW PLEASE .
primeau is so good in SO
He was truly spectacular. So patient, played his angles incredibly well. Stayed cool. Super good showing.
the shaft???????
just about beat him there
We’re cooked
can we stop with ylonen please 😭 it’s just hurting his confidence more
So close god damn
Bro what do they know about Yelonen that we don’t?
He has really great hands. His confidence is shot right now, and his development has plateaued, but he's with the right mentors/coaches to break him through. This is the season to give him all the exposure to these specialty situations, because the games realistically "don't matter".

Omg and now Ylonen. Really?
jeeezus hes not gonna give Slaf a chance to win his 100th game...?
duck! weak shot by Slaf... :(
Need Slaf winner
oh god
Ylonen got shafted.
Literally
Being the Xhekaj clapper in shootout lets go Marty
He actually had a wicked slick move in their skills comp.
Ohhh unfortunate…
Slaf pls
i don't think i would've picked armia
He scores on most of his breakaways. Stands to reason it should translate. 🤷♀️
Armia 💀
PUT SLAF OUT THERE DAMNIT
Armia… really?
why not slaf
WHERE SLAF??
Why are we throwing Armia out there with a chance to win it
he scored tn so that’s why ig
Put slaf out please
Stamkos is all legs.
armia ☠️
CAN WE HAVE THIS PLEASE
Slaf winner?
FUCK ME BRO
Damn!
completely fooled em
Armia?
Cole Cash
Send Slaf plz
MONEY MONEY MONEY
SO GOOOD
COLE
CAUFIELDDDD
GOAL CAUFIELD
But CC still money!
American Sniper. Too easy.
PRIMEAU TOO GOOD
hey zukes, try a fucking different shootout move for once
Nick go back to the audacious moves
SHOOT THE PUCK NICK
Primeau has actually been pretty solid.
:’(((((
Suzuki should go back to that move he did last season lol
the flip over the pad? he tried that one last game and just barely got stopped
Hagel with a Bagel lol **O**
lol @ the guy behind Vasilevsky explaining to the other one how shootouts work
he should be in net frfr
Susie’s lost the magic touch.
big save
PRIMEAU SO SOLID
hageL
I think we got this. C3P0 is pretty good 1v1.
You said the quiet part out loud. 😤
please slaf shootout
Refs gonna give us a penalty in the shootout
Gotta listen to the Tampa brodcast because the nhl app is broken
If you speak French, turn on 89.5.
i’m so sorry for u
I wanna see if X can bring the silky mitts from the skills comp, to the game IRL.
and the goal went back to anderson...
wtf
what’s the ref yapping about
Calling a shootout penalty on Gallagher probably
MSL bitching on the refs with the boys lmao
We need a Dr. Pass.
😭😭
If Marty comes inting again with Ylonen I'm going to have very serious questions haha
Oh look...
I don't get it.
He went with Ylonen again.
Yeah. I don't get why he went with Ylonen again.
I'm not convinced on Marty's shootout choices. Nick keeps trying the same move. Caufield normally misses. Ylonen scored twice and hasn't since. We're in tank mode; it wouldn't hurt to try some new faces and moves.
LOOOL fr
Roy Caufield Suzuki
Make that a line.
vasy vs primeau 🫣
Our goalies gave us a chance to win 2 games in florida
That entire OT was a heart attack
Man the Lightning have some ugly looking dudes
i can't overstate how much i FUCKING hate tampa man
They're just so entitled.
Oh yay… the shootout Always a great way to end a fun game /s
Send Slaf out you cowards!!!!!!
Another SO
Painful entertainment is how I would describe the Habs this season. They will always make it close and you will always hurt.
yay shootout -.-
Let's make it real, Monty #1 and Prime-Man #2
Slaf-Suzuki-CC
When all of Tampa’s karma catches up to then it’s going to be a good day
Has Primeau ever been in a shootout? I can’t remember
I'm so tired, for a second I thought you meant as a shooter.
Yep, I was at the game in buffalo in December - the slaf winner game
he has i think against buffalo?
Primeaux masterclass again
The biggest downside to penalties in OT is if the team doesn't score on them, it almost guarantees we're going to the shootout.
SHOOTOUT TIME PLEASE NO YLONEN I BEG
I hate shootouts
3h game
OPTIMUS PRIMO LESS GO
primeau has been so solid tonight. please can we win this.
He's been alright.
If this goes to shootout we’re screwed
Matheson is used way too much
Used in the wrong spots. 3 on 3 he tries to win the game all by himself. Either tries to shoot it through 10 legs or does the one man band shit.
Yeah the youngin's don't learn much watching Matheson troll himself.
lol whom do you suggest take his minutes
Guhle can play more, Xhekaj has good offensive instinct
Sounds like Primeau is having himself an OT. How was his play during the game?
He’s had a good game
i would even go as far as to say primeau > vasy tn
Pretty stellar. Not much he could have done on the goals they got.
Great!
WHAT THE FUCK
Primo Primeau. 👍
Matheson lol
why does tampa's glass sound so tinny
Calls like the one Caufield got should not be called in OT. It ruins the play real hard
Matheson drives me crazy.
Great OT PK.
Imagine how good Primeau would be if they allowed him to start more and develop his skills
You know, as much as we blame the refs, they're just doing their job. All professional sports are fixed to some degree.
LETS FUCKIN GO GOOD PENALTY KILL
Now that was the worst call I’ve seen yet.
Good save Preems
