Official Game Day Thread - Winnipeg at Montreal - October 26, 2024

YEAH, what was up with that? Makes NO SENSE AT ALL....you want to kill the clock and you call a timeout? Unless there was too many men on the field or something else weird going on that I misses, WHY WOULD YOU CALL A TIMEOUT in that situation? VERY STRANGE...more heavenly gifts? BIZARRO!

He did kill the clock still, because he waited for 1s left on game clock to call his TO.  So it didn't hurt his clock bleeding.  We've seen some teams do this before, though I'm not really sure why they bother... what do they gain?

You called it!  Pretty close score guess too.

Hope you put $1k on it!  I was going to bet big, but got scared by the odds and just put $20 on the win.  Oops.

I ALWAYS bet on the Bombers. :-)

OK I missed that. IN the end that extra time delay let fate step in with that crazy wind!! So it backfired this time around! NO MAAS!!

If we get to the GC vs MTL, then mega NO MAAS

No TO left, they wasted it a snap or 2 before.  Only 1 TO after the 3min.

Roberto Duran was something special. So grateful to have been able to follow his career. Ray Leonard didn't inspire me at all.

So in the week before I had wondered if MTL wanted to either get us in the GC or keep us out of the GC.  I wondered if they thought they'd have it easier vs maybe BC or SSK.

I think the way they played this game answers that.  They went full on with no quit all game.  The only thing you can say they did was pull Cody: but frankly Alexander is better anyway.

MTL didn't want to face WPG in the GC.  Now let's both get there and we pull off the spectacular revenge win.

They didn't have a time out. They burnt it  the play before for nothing.

Or even take a time count penalty.....not thinking quickly enough on the fly! BIZARRO!
