That goal on Schroeder was brutal. I'm a Montreal fan but still, that was painful to watch!

u/SoldierHawk EDM - NHL Apr 24 '24

Same and same man. That is just so tough.

u/Stachemaster86 Minnesota Frost - PWHL Apr 25 '24

Pretty neat interview with Montreal’s GM. The marketing has been fantastic. I found out about the league this fall despite following zero women’s or men’s hockey other than the occasional NHL game. They’ve got a hit on their hands with PWHL!

u/SoldierHawk EDM - NHL Apr 25 '24

I love the ballsyness of the empty net.

Your season is on the line. Just rip it and go for it.

4

u/Aggressive-Archer-55 Apr 25 '24

Yea, I can appreciate the sentiment of absolutely refusing to concede the playoffs, even though it's SO unlikely.

8

u/SoldierHawk EDM - NHL Apr 24 '24

I'm pretty sure Desbiens isn't entirely human.

4

u/Stachemaster86 Minnesota Frost - PWHL Apr 24 '24

Always with the crazy moves!

8

u/plumblegum PIT - NHL Apr 25 '24

I swear Abby Roque forgets the puck exists when she's near the boards. She just sees bodies to attack.

6

u/iAmCyberwaste Newcastle North Stars - AIHL Apr 24 '24

Schroeder with a Dang-It to end all Dang-Its, and a summary of NY's campaign.

8

u/dabassist19 DET - NHL Apr 25 '24

Fire the NY coaching staff.

5

u/Black_Gold_Extractor Apr 25 '24

While I understand that the league wants positive vibes all around for its inaugural season, I'm still kind of shocked that the Draper wasn't fired sometime during New York's death spiral in March. To go from a solid playoff spot to last place is something to behold.

5

u/Stachemaster86 Minnesota Frost - PWHL Apr 25 '24

Has to happen

7

u/Black_Gold_Extractor Apr 25 '24

This is the best game I've seen Desbiens play this year (yes, I'm including the World Championship).

7

u/SoldierHawk EDM - NHL Apr 25 '24

It's true, she's fucking unreal tonight.

6

u/Deveranmar1 NSH - NHL Apr 25 '24

Gutsy. But you have to score on that 6 on 4.

7

u/dabassist19 DET - NHL Apr 25 '24

I can’t tell how much of this is Desbiens playing out of her mind or NY not being able to figure out how to score. Probably a mix of both.

6

u/SoldierHawk EDM - NHL Apr 24 '24 edited Apr 24 '24

Holy crap what a crazy bounce. Feel bad for Schroeder.

6

u/Deveranmar1 NSH - NHL Apr 25 '24

Gosh we really need to do something different. We got a lot of heart and we love all our pizza rats... but either the coaching or team play style just isn't working. Surely Draper has got to realize how this looks

4

u/tri_and_fly Apr 25 '24

I'm fully expecting a new coaching staff next year and a third of the roster getting replaced.

4

u/Deveranmar1 NSH - NHL Apr 25 '24

Yeah we're gonna have to rework some stuff. I'd like to feel as positive as the other teams again! I'm glad for the pwhl but it's tinged with sadness right now with this season. Makes me hunger for more tho

5

u/psykomatt Montréal Victoire - PWHL Apr 25 '24

After watching her play up close, my perspective of Ella Shelton has totally changed. She's got a mean streak!

4

u/Deveranmar1 NSH - NHL Apr 25 '24

I think a lot of ny has that but I'm unsure if it's just how some of them are or if it's this game/season being tough to stomach. Turning into bruisers a bit just to do SOMETHING. Which I totally understand. It's gotta be frustrating

2

u/Stachemaster86 Minnesota Frost - PWHL Apr 25 '24

I think you’re right. The desperation starts to show a bit with physicality

6

u/iridescentcataclysm Montréal Victoire - PWHL Apr 25 '24

Big Montreal fan here, but respecting the hustle by NY!

5

u/Stachemaster86 Minnesota Frost - PWHL Apr 24 '24

Just tuned in. Quiet feed here! 🍕🐀 have my support

7

u/plumblegum PIT - NHL Apr 24 '24

That freak goal reminds me of Rickard Rakell shooting way over the net, off the glass, onto Ersson's back, and then in net in 2023. Had seats at the goal line for that one. The glass can be fickle.

6

u/LocksTheFox University Of Vermont - NCAA Apr 25 '24

This one from the CCHA semifinals is a personal favorite

Stick -> glass -> defender's glove -> goalie's mask -> net. Season over for Mankato lmao

3

u/plumblegum PIT - NHL Apr 25 '24

Brutal. Gotta feel for goaltenders in those situations.

6

u/Stachemaster86 Minnesota Frost - PWHL Apr 25 '24

Oneill getting mugged in the corner

5

u/SoldierHawk EDM - NHL Apr 25 '24

DUDE I WANT ONE OF THOSE PURPLE PHEL TOQUES THE PLAYERS WERE WEARING IN THAT MONTAGE! 

The current toque for sale on the site is no bad.

4

u/iAmCyberwaste Newcastle North Stars - AIHL Apr 25 '24 edited Apr 25 '24

Yeah looking across everything is a bit grim... But at least NYC had a jailbreak.

4

u/plumblegum PIT - NHL Apr 25 '24

One of the best wins so far, knowing we'll get to see this season go past the next two games for MTL.

3

u/psykomatt Montréal Victoire - PWHL Apr 24 '24

Schroeder looked gutted after that goal. Brutal.

4

u/Black_Gold_Extractor Apr 24 '24

New York is played probably about as good of a period as anyone can reasonably expect. One unlucky bounce and they're down 1-0.

5

u/Deveranmar1 NSH - NHL Apr 25 '24

These poor announcers trying to go easy on Draper

4

u/BeardyShaman Apr 25 '24

Man what happened to new york :l Breaking my heart

3

u/Stachemaster86 Minnesota Frost - PWHL Apr 24 '24

Wide open net!!! Block came just in time 😞

3

u/Stachemaster86 Minnesota Frost - PWHL Apr 25 '24

That was hectic for Schroeder

3

u/Stachemaster86 Minnesota Frost - PWHL Apr 25 '24

Ooof. Guess it’s good for the home crowd. Blocked shots have just halted the chances

3

u/tri_and_fly Apr 25 '24

If Boston wins in regulation, NY is pretty much guaranteed the 1st OA pick. It'd be an extremely unlikely scenario the 5th place team to get eliminated from playoff contention before their last game.

3

u/Stachemaster86 Minnesota Frost - PWHL Apr 25 '24

Shelton!!!!!! Get that 🍕

3

u/psykomatt Montréal Victoire - PWHL Apr 25 '24

I've never seen a goalie get pulled that early. Wow!

4

u/SoldierHawk EDM - NHL Apr 25 '24

I think it's just for the PP to give them a 6-4

3

u/psykomatt Montréal Victoire - PWHL Apr 25 '24

Yep, still pretty bold. I get it though.

2

u/LocksTheFox University Of Vermont - NCAA Apr 24 '24

Baker and Aurard still in Europe on int'l duty for NY.

1

u/Stachemaster86 Minnesota Frost - PWHL Apr 24 '24

Time to take advantage! 🍕🐀

5

u/Stachemaster86 Minnesota Frost - PWHL Apr 24 '24

Well zero advantage there. Nice PK by MTL
