Post-Game Talk: Canadiens run into a brick Woll - Lose 7-3

[The Great Weal]

Not upset, nice wake-up call and adversity, you need that in a season. Habs were seriously outplayed from the 2nd even if Monty was bad. We came close so many times but got really unlucky. Playing 11 forwards really catching up with the team and that's 100% on management.

Woll was really good for the Leafs but definitely didn't steal it. He also got lucky a bunch though.

 

[Apoplectic Habs Fan]

Frustrating from Monty and then MSL

Shit happens, gotta move on

Hutson a very tough night. Dvo and Gally are passengers currently. Evans puck luck has dried up. Newhook and Slaf being carried by their linematea

Someone capable of a regular forward shift is necessary. Pez is crap and they have been running 11 forward and then even more perplexing, coach continues to double down on it when down 6-3 and you play tomorrow. Inexcusable

Hope there is gas left in the tank vs the Rangers

 

[Kennerback]

Wohl was very solid and Monty laid an egg. That’s hockey.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Caufield 10 shots on goal. Crazy.

He was good tonight. He & Anderson were going.

Dvorak & Gallagher are getting worse game by game. We have to move Dvorak.

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

hey guys my unsolicited, amateur observations of the night.

- Lots to build on from that first. A lot.
-took their foot off the gas and we're a very, very young team.
-Hutson -5 *see previous point
-Dvorak, Anderson (who I like this year) and Gally - a 5 million dollars line that costs 14 mill. Dvorak and Gallagher are done, cooked, finished.
-Dvorak was what? 3/15 in the circle?
-During this run, Dobes hid some of our warts...as we still cave when aggressively forechecked, and team is still learning how to win / close out games.
-Montembeault is not a no.1. imo. He's had flashes, but he's not consistent and doesn't seem to show up in big moments. 818 tonight and 4 goals in the 3rd period.
The future is not him. He's not entirely to blame, but he was beat tonight by the better goalie.
-very curious to see if they can bounce back tomorrow or this is the beginning of a little spiral. they were humbled.
see y'all demain!

Woll was the better goalie tonight. He is not better than Monty. Monty was in nets to beat all the top teams thet beat.

 

[HabsCode]

What's his goal saved above average stat? That save percentage is mostly dragged down by those blowouts where team left him out to dry

Goal saved above expected per 60 he is 28th in the league. He has not been one of the two most impactful player this season like the poster I replied to said.

 

[Matthew McConaughay]

Woll made the key saves and not Monthy, that's the difference.

 

[Subban signed e5]

I really hope we call someone up for tomorrow, Pez should not play again.

 

[Habano]

Dobes, Fowler, Volokhin. Hopefully at least one of them develops into a stud!

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

Monty with an .818 save percentage. Lol

No team is winning with that crap.

You can give up one softie. That's going to happen. But when you give up two or more? You're in trouble.

Woll was the difference tonight. Hats off to him, best player on the ice and I imagine that it's a game he'll remember for the rest of his life.

 

[The Great Weal]

Yeah he pretended to make 48 saves on opening night when he was the only player that showed up.

This board will never like Monty. Guy could play 10 excellent games in a row but if he lays one or two stinkers the next time, he's always a fraud that should be replaced. Primeau was supposed to overtake him and look at how that turned out.

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Gotta win tomorrow to wash the bad taste out of our mouths from this…learning experience.

is Doby the second coming of St Patrick? St Jakub? Too soon?

Also a learning experience for HFHsbs, maybe don’t troll on the main boards, see what happens?

Habs fans troll less than most of the other fan bases.

 

[nyhabsfan]

Dvorak scores instead of hitting the post it's 4-0 and game over.
Monty had a BAD game and Woll was a wall.
NO puck luck

 

[tazsub3]

I actually think this game will be a good learning lesson.

 

[vokiel]

Lane at ~19 minutes of ice time finishing -5 is sad... Sadder than Tabardach scoring first then finishing -2.

 

[Catanddogguitarrr]

Dvorak the center who is called the FO expert is 3/15 tonight. What a joke !! He is useful for what exactly??

 

[SlafySZN]

Suzuki is now toothless.

Yeah, that was a huge turning point. And... if we score there it's entirely possible they pull Woll too.

 

[Spearmint Rhino]

3 Stars for the Leafs

3. MSL
2. Hutson
1. Monty

 

[Zorro]

For me, what sucks, is how we lost the game. When you're up by 3 goals, you need to win that game. There's no shame in losing to the Leafs, they're a good team, just not like this. Monty, definitely let in a couple of softies but even then we would have lost either way because the team got overconfident. At least we're playing tomorrow, and so we can get back on the W sooner than later.

Im shocked Dvorak had a 17 and an 18 goal seasons with the Predators.

 

[Habssince89]

100% fine to bash Monty for tonight but he's been very very good in other games and he's been solid in others. His bad games are very bad but they're not that often. He's a battler and he'll bounce back. In the big picture, this might be the chance Dobes needs to grab the reins.

Good.

true, that sequence was insane and flipped the momentum

 

[Banjo Cat]

That was depressing. I am thinking that we come back down to Earth after that loss.
