Just an ugly game, from everyone...

It's been like this for 3+ weeks now and the coaching staff is talking about how everyone is working hard they're happy with them. Grind grind grind like half the team is injured and they need to hold onto the 8th seed.

the problem with this dump and chase philosophy is that the Habs get rarely more than one chance, and they get gassed on the forecheck and board work. When Florida has the zone it looks like a power play, and they control the play. Man ... Habs are doing well this season, but it is by hook and crook, and the brilliance of Price.

Habs defense is getting schooled since the beginning of the 2nd.. It's pretty pathetic. They're just too deep and can't seem to use the forwards for jock.

Correction: I don`t think Emelin made contact with the puck at all which in another way sucks since it appears he missed it by, at the most, an inch.

But Markov is having his rare defensive B game.

If this isn't reason to change your lines, MT - you're an idiot. This isn't even hockey.

Habs need just one player to play with confidence, slow down the play in to the o-zone, and give teammates some time to breath. Man!

They've been told their a grinding team and to dump and chase which results in small forwards unable to recover the puck. Hard to slow it down int he O-zone when you never have it in there.

It isn't a reason to change the lines. It's a reason to re-think the stupid system if you ask me. This Tortorella style of shot blocking while being deep in the defensive zone is tiresome.
