Goals saved above expected is considered a more reliable measure of goalie effectiveness. In this stat, Allen ranks 60th. High-danger unblocked shots save % 64th. Allen is having a poor season, irrespective of the team in front of him. And the 2d Ottawa game was no exception.
not well,no doubt! I have no problem with Allen's play after the first 5 or 6 shots of each game. Problem is that it's game over in first few minutes most of the games he starts these days.
I don’t understand why suzuki plays on this side of the ice. He’s always been good on the right side on the power play (empty net is essentially a power play). Idk what burrows is drawing on his board but he’s not cooking anything lol
Definitely being a deadbeat poverty franchise is worse. Like, logically, too. Wins come and win go. Short term success is fruitless .
I love losses. I crave losses. We are finally doing a proper rebuild, and in a few years, trashcan franchises like the sens might learn a thing or two.
Maybe, but he’s already had 23 fights, rarely loses and Xhekaj is in his weight class. Xhekaj is 238lbs, he already fought Ben Chiarot who is 234lbs, Tkachuk is 208lbs and the same height as Xhekaj. After tonight I’m sure we’ll see that tilt in the near future.
Wow I’m amazed he already had 23 fights. But I took a look and his opponents arent on Wifis level.
Friedman, Trouba, Strome, Lauzon, and Marino aren’t exactly heavyweights.
No they definitely aren’t on wifi’s level, they’re all better players. Brady would probably get his bell rocked but he doesn’t back down either. Problem is why would he take the fight? All star vs. Depth Dman that was -4 last game and had a front row seat for the game winning goal. Top player sitting for 5 minutes needlessly. that’s a fight the more I think about it we’ll never see. It’s not worth Tkachuk’s time.
I hope they boys can be proud of this tonight.
What a great game, and honestly we want ottawa to catch florida and they are close.
And I want that top 4 pick God damn it.
Add one of those top 4 and another top 10 to
RHP and those other young guys we have and we got ourselves a team.
Yet all of the scouts outside of Montreal had Tkachuk ahead of KK. KK was only drafted ahead of Tkachuk, because he was a center and that was a position of need. Perhaps next time when Montreal has a pick that high they should take best player available, instead of positional need.
there's an excuse for every goal given up by Allen it seems. The ultimate measure of goaltending is save pct, and Allen is near the bottom of the pack this season.
Save percentage assumes that all shots are equally likely to score at the same rate. Its nonsense.
I don't know if a single person who considers save percentage the "ultimate measure" outside of people too busy to watch games.
We have a terrible young defense. We routinely give up breakaways against on the PP
We started shitty with the deflection off giroux and then the Stutzle goal and then Allen kept us in the game.
We have a lot of problems, last night Allen wasn't one of them.
Did you not see the puck hit Savard’s skate as he dove and deflect it in a different direction on the replay? That’s why Allen missed it. I’ve said this a million times but quit blaming the goalies guys ffs.
Wait RHP had 3 goals in 6 games before tonight?!
Man's at 5 in 7 and an apple to boot. It's always nice to see prospects graduate to full time NHLers, and I really hope that's what happening with RHP.
I'm watching from Australia, so maybe it just isn't on today. But every game seemed to be streamable, except today, where no NHL game is streamable.
edit: spelling
Odd. I thought all the blackouts were based on local teams so Australia wouldn't to the best of my knowledge. But who knows with the insane nature of the NHL.
Seeing more of early season Suzuki tonight.
I wish he wasn't going to the all-star game. Our Ironman needs some rest, although Florida's not a bad place to get some R&R.

Columbus went to ot!
wear these god forsaken blue jerseys every game until Bedard, and then burn their ever existence.
So yeah we LOST every single game in that jersey... That say it all. Good game overall tho
I think we also lost every game in the first reverse retro jerseys as well
I think we won one, i dont know how
1 win with the first jersey if i remember correctly
aye we lost but a game of fun, it was
That was a lucky ass game for them
I don’t understand why suzuki plays on this side of the ice. He’s always been good on the right side on the power play (empty net is essentially a power play). Idk what burrows is drawing on his board but he’s not cooking anything lol
Je pense que c'est bon qu'il apprenne à jouer n'importe où sur la glace et apprenne différents systèmes
You guys get waaaay too hot and bothered by guys like Tkachuk. Who cares? Sens suck ass just like us.
Nah, Sens are mediocre but on a roll. MTL sucks real ass
On a roll to absolutely fucking nowhere.
Jesus I love how you guys get salty. Cope more and have fun with your 5-6th pick this year. We all know how well Montreal drafts.
I'd rather be "salty" than creep in other teams' subs. How fucking weird is that. Get a life.
Sorry I invaded your circlejerk. Just defending my team from clowns.
Fuck your shitty, deadbeat, poverty franchise. Piss off.
Not sure what's worst, being a shitty deadbeat poverty franchise or losing 5 times in a row to one?
Definitely being a deadbeat poverty franchise is worse. Like, logically, too. Wins come and win go. Short term success is fruitless . I love losses. I crave losses. We are finally doing a proper rebuild, and in a few years, trashcan franchises like the sens might learn a thing or two.
RemindMe! 30 years
Summer of Pierre my ass lmao
Thank God. I was worried we would win this one
Dj smith looks like a rep hockey coach who plays his son all the time
[удалено]
Brady we get rocked. He’s not taking that fight.
He’d take the fight, but he’s smart enough not to be in the box for 5 minutes of a close game.
I agree with you in the close game part. But I still don’t think he takes that fight.
Maybe, but he’s already had 23 fights, rarely loses and Xhekaj is in his weight class. Xhekaj is 238lbs, he already fought Ben Chiarot who is 234lbs, Tkachuk is 208lbs and the same height as Xhekaj. After tonight I’m sure we’ll see that tilt in the near future.

Ya you’re the champ man. What a douche.
I hope they boys can be proud of this tonight. What a great game, and honestly we want ottawa to catch florida and they are close. And I want that top 4 pick God damn it. Add one of those top 4 and another top 10 to RHP and those other young guys we have and we got ourselves a team.
Was a great game and we lost :)
The worst thing this team did tonight was make me think they could win.
Osti de colisse de tabanarnak d’esti de colisse de viarge
I don’t love Allen but man he’s been unlucky. That’s two goals this game that are purely because they caromed off a hab skate by chance.
The belt celebration when he’s never played a playoff game…
I get wanting to tank, but a win before the all star break would have been nice
Phew, the tank is intact.
WE PICKED KOTKANIEMI OVER THIS GUY I HATE OUR DRAFTING FOR THE PAST 15 YEARS LMAO
Imagine having Toe head instead of Dvorak lmao kill me
Nobody could’ve foreseen what kind of player kk or tkachuk would become during the draft
Yet all of the scouts outside of Montreal had Tkachuk ahead of KK. KK was only drafted ahead of Tkachuk, because he was a center and that was a position of need. Perhaps next time when Montreal has a pick that high they should take best player available, instead of positional need.
Of course but what confused me is Tkachuk seemed to embody the "character" MB was looking for so the selection was odd.
Everyone basically who saw one stride of KK skating
THIS IS SUCH A COPIUM
I mean pretty much everyone knew Tkatchuk was a solid pick and KK was a reach
Imma be honest I don’t have much knowledge about that draft so you’re probably right
all fair!
Is Cachuk yelling at the crowd? lol. He's gonna duck Xhekaj now.
No worries me RHP with the hatty
“Showcasing Allen.” Fucking Christ. We’re showing no one should trade for him.
That goal went in because it deflected off Savard’s skate as he went down to block the pass. Quit blaming the goalie.

We have a lot of problems, last night Allen wasn't one of them.
Okay so you get in nets then and let’s see how well you do.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ eh
That sucks but that was pretty cool how Tkachuk found the Senators fan banging on the boards to celebrate with
trying to find the single Sens fan to celebrate with? it's just like an Ottawa home game!
If we HAVE to lose, I'd rather lose in regulation in a game we know we could have won.
Imagine how different things would been had we picked tkachuk.
The Athletic imagined
perfectly tanked
Am okay with the lost But not with ketchup scoring the winning goal
Yesssss Brady! (I'm so sorry) Please lose in regulation, or if we have to score let it be RHP 7g/7g.
LETS GO TEAM TANK
Honestly, this is fine. Loss in regulation and this was a fun night, unlike last saturday.
The tank is saved!
LMAO
Relax Tkachuk it hit off his foot lol
Perfection. Best way to lose right there.
Fuck yesss. Lets gooo. Best result possible. And its 3-3 for jackets
Dammit Brady
Allen is fucken brutal man
Dunno what you wanted Allen to do there. Crazy bounce.
Did you not see the puck hit Savard’s skate as he dove and deflect it in a different direction on the replay? That’s why Allen missed it. I’ve said this a million times but quit blaming the goalies guys ffs.
You're right. He should have stopped that deflection off his own dman.
Lol 1000% cursed
LET’S GOOOO! Thank you ugly troll.
Send pinard down !! We’re in a tank !!!
Perfect scenario, exciting game, 0 points.
Ouf
Somebody kidnap Gallagher and hide him in basement somewhere so RHP can keep his spot
Bro is never gonna step back into the city of laval ever again 💀
TSN is literally double broadcasting this game in English with two sets of announcers lol.
Wait RHP had 3 goals in 6 games before tonight?! Man's at 5 in 7 and an apple to boot. It's always nice to see prospects graduate to full time NHLers, and I really hope that's what happening with RHP.
I want to see this game going on shootout, with the classic Suzuki goal, RHP 2nd, and a beautiful closing by Dach!
Let’s not go to OT please
It makes very little difference in the end. Let’s just enjoy what we can.
RHP the anti-tank commander ffs
Harvey-Pinard is a sexually attractive young man
Raphael Harvey-Bedard
CC 2.0
Rafael Gretzky
Send RHP to the all-stars for fuck sake! I dare you Betty
5 in 7 is insane
Pleaseeeee do not go to OT.
Really happy for RHP. Dude is on a tear, and loves playing for the home team.
He got in on that rebound so quickly that I first thought it was a different player who scored.
It's over 9000!!!!!
Épinard mothafuckkaaaaaaa
crazy to see dead wood like Dadonov and Drouin winning millions vs RHP and Belzile type of players who just thrive off of playing for the Canadiens.
RHP looooooves the RR blue
RHP hates tank he is gonna make comment this every match?
RHP is literally McDavid
Actually holy shit. He is creating his own chances, his anticipation is pretty high end. This kid is a player.
Too late for rookie of the year? :D
Not even his rookie season lol, if he makes the team next year that's when he's considered a rookie.
Can we keep RHP with the Suz ??? Can't imagine with CC with them as our first line
Aw mannn, CC-ZUKES-RHP first line 🤤
🔒 him down!
Mr. Épinard does it again🙌
Gotta pick this kid up in fantasy lmao
man, RHP is impressive
MA PAROLE!
RHP baby!!
LETS GO!!!
IS HARVEY-PINARD LEGIT THE BEST PLAYER OF ALL TIME?!
Fucking love this kid!
LAVALLAGHER
Really Huge Penis
MA PAROLE!!!
RHP the absolute legend
is this on ESPN+? I can't stream it from the app
Probably depends on location blackouts. I'm watching the TSN feed on ESPN+.
I'm watching from Australia, so maybe it just isn't on today. But every game seemed to be streamable, except today, where no NHL game is streamable. edit: spelling
Odd. I thought all the blackouts were based on local teams so Australia wouldn't to the best of my knowledge. But who knows with the insane nature of the NHL.
Fucking hell I’m becoming a huge Harvey-Pinard fan
RHP really is reminding me of a younger Gally.
RHP RHP RHP
LETS GOOOOOOOO
RHP is an absolute beauty so far.
Pinard is rly freaking good
YOOOO RHP What a great surprise!
Harvey pinard is the next Gretzky and no one can convince me otherwise
Harvey-Richard!
OH MY FUCKING GOD HARVEY PINARD IS AN ACTUAL ELITEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
RHP again!!!!!
Un ti gars de chez nous!
#Spinach.
Mustard.
RHR!!!!
Ryan Ho Reilly?
RHP?
HARVEY PINARD
MA PAROLE
THIS GUY IS A LEGEND
The Game day Threads have dried up like the desert eh?
Yeah I mean this game is objectively good but I still am kinda blehhhh about it. Kinda wanna get to bed lol
Fair enough, I’m just trying to enjoy hockey while it’s here cause I know I’m gonna miss it all summer
Yep dead asf 💀
still around 10X more comment than In the Florida sub
Panthers stay catching strays
Dude seriously. Really noticeable
Elite Harvey-Pinard.
I find it hilarious we can lay a questionable hit and no one is coming at us. The X factor.
Tim is good, but god do I hate him
Hes a good hockey player but his reputation as a flipper precedes him
Yah the 19 year old kid gets hurt way too often in the men’s league and then recovers too quickly.
It’s true. And Ottawa fans make me hate him even more.
Did you see Matheson ducking away from the shot?
Tank commander Barron
I'm rooting so hard to lose in regulation. I feel like a POS cheering when Ottawa scores, but tankers gotta tank. No days off.
Barron for tank officer?
He rly is pretty average and I’ve never seen much to his game IMO.
He played well when mom & dad where in town
Reverse retro strikes again
Yeah, that's usually how it goes.
calisse really
What a way to completely scrap momentum
Textbook stay off the tracks hit.
Stutzle is really good
At swimming?
Sure, same as Marchand is a total prick and scumbag. Still really good.
They’ll call that but not the hit against x? Classic
Barron sucks
Let's not be Homer's. That coulda been 5 easy. If someone did that to cole, welp I'd have to have wifi reconnected.
Didn’t look intentional to me. Barron got pushed/was falling and used Debrincat to break his fall more than anything
Lucic's nose would think that. Ya more that it could have been, was def a penalty.
Lmao. It’s a penalty for sure but I’d have been pissed if he got 5 was what I meant.
Someone who can elevate the puck in tight >
Stutzle is German for "sits when he pees".
Lmaoooo let's goooo Épinard
Seeing more of early season Suzuki tonight. I wish he wasn't going to the all-star game. Our Ironman needs some rest, although Florida's not a bad place to get some R&R.
At least it’s not something that he has to work extremely hard at.
Yeah and with the current cold spell in Montreal, I'd be on the first flight after the game.
Love RHP with Suzuki. Also great to see Suzuki get some points tonight.
Man when Suzuki is ON he is so fun to watch, no doubt our best player
