“We’re gonna beat Chicago!” – my 7y/o
Montreal has been on fire lately. If we can actually show up for a 1st period I’ll like our chances, but that feels like a big if at the moment.
Don’t use first period as a warmup – do that before the game. Puck control, shots on goal. Let Caufield know it’s gonna be a rough night…. GO BOLTS! ⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️
We’ve done well against the Habs this season. Particularly the stomping we gave them in Montreal. I was at the game and was a commanding win. Saw some beautiful goals as I was right behind our net for two periods. I think they’ve cleaned up goaltending and D a bit but we might be able to pick them apart with our O. They are young small and fast. I like our chances.
Hagel with the A we keep on winning.
Lets keep the wins going! Go Bolts ⚡️
Is there news on Kuch?
Huge game this week. Every week feels like that but this could make or break our chances at holding onto the #1 spot
Important one.
Baise les habs.
Zap zap my dudes.
Big game hunting! As much as we’re trying to keep our streak going, they’re doing the same. Let’s play the full 60 and dominate. Go, Bolts!! ⚡⚡
LGB.
Go Bolts 😎👍
Need all the points we can get Bolts
Given this could be a playoff preview, time to torch these jokers and piss on the corpse to put out the fire. Really would love to see a good to great first period tonight.
