[Engels] In case you forgot, the Montreal Canadiens have the most man-games lost in the NHL over the last three seasons. First in the league in 2021-22 (599), first in 2022-23 (600), third in 2023-24 (390)

1. We didn’t forget

2. Well we’re already at 164 for 24-25

3. Engels, while I appreciate you, we don’t need to be reminded.

4. That’s 1589 games lost over the last 3 years, for anyone keeping track at home. 

5. Thanks Eric! I actually DID forget the pain and suffering over the last 3 years 👍

6. Are we counting Weber and Price in these stats?

   I feel like Weber shouldn’t count at all and Price shouldn’t count beyond the 21-22 season

7. To think about it in a different way, that’s, on average, 530 games per season, which split over a 23 player roster, comes out to an average of 23 games lost — over a quarter of the season — per player, per season. It’s painful.

8. 

   Spain but without the S

   In french, bread = pain

   Slaughter with or without the S …. can only laugh.

9. There has to be a reason for this.. it can’t be a coincidence year after year.
   Are they all flukes like Laine? Idk

10. I’m sure a lot of teams that are out of the playoffs early – or enter the season with the goal of improving draft position (recently Chicago, San Jose) will have more man games lost because of precautionary measures and/or early shutdowns

11. That’s fuckin right boys we’re #1!!!

12. Bergevin should have been more precise with wording when made that deal with Satan. ‘Anything for a deep playoffs run’ doesn’t sound that good now, does it?

13. This Laine injury seems to be pure bad luck but we have signed a lot of injury prone players over the last couple of years.

14. Is there a site that shows this stat over the last 15 years? I feel like we are near the top every season

15. Je me souviens

16. Yep was reminded last night. Thanks.

17. Is it with Price and Weber?

18. I’m tired, boss…

19. Does this include Carey price? Cuz if so I’d like to see where we’d rank without lti-retired guys

20. Most likely will contend for the top rank again this year. It’s not as much bad luck as people may think, this stats kind of proves it. Some players are just good at avoiding dangerous falls and contacts(e.g Suzuki) while others aren’t(e.g Dach).

21. It sounds so stupid as a question but could there be a reason why ?
    The ice
    Medical treatments
    Bad luck

    I know injuries happens away too

    3years in a row, its odd.

22. Engels is milking this right now 

23. Brutal

24. YES THANKS I TOTALLY NEEDED THAT REMINDER. SUPER COOL OF YOU TO POST THAT MR ENGELS.

25. j’avais pas oublié merci

26. Not only is it the most, its an all time record

27. Reconstruction without workers.

28. ERIC YOU KNOW WE CAN’T FORGET
