GDT: Canucks @ Habs 7:30PM EST (RDS, SNE, SNP)

Blake Wheeler is the answer to this team, to bad the jets might make the playoffs.

This team needs a Brendan Shanahan and Chris Pronger.

 

[HuGo Sham]

this is a real **** looking team right now. top 6 playing soft peripheral hockey, bottom 6 incapable of bailing us out, goalie not making key saves, dumb penalties

 

[The Great Weal]

because every team has bad stretches?

I meant 3rd on the pp in the nhl.

 

[David Suzuki]

I think there's a little exaggeration about us being "too cocky". We've just gone a little cold and had a fantastic start. Everything seems weak in comparison.

I assumed everyone using the too cocky excuse were joking lol but you never know

yeah pretty obvious it's law of averages. No one is going to win that many games all year. We were bound or a let down. It will even itself up.

 

[sampollock]

When will MB pull the trigger

 

[Apoplectic Habs Fan]

Horrible effort and frankly Therrien seems to have zero adjustments.

How you come out that flat is ridiculous especially after being blown out last game and last time vs the nucks

Weise on the pp? I dont care if he was scoring. His hot streak ended a bit ago.

Pacioretty and Plekanec. Soft and lacking leadership.

 

[OpenIceHit]

This team lacks a spark plug....again.
Drop the gloves, throw a hit.....since goal scoring looks to have evaporated.

This!

Someone needs to tell Pacioretty that wearing the C comes with great responsabilities. It's not just to sell jerseys.

 

[David Suzuki]

I meant 3rd on the pp in the nhl.

oh shoot I get it lol

I actually think the pp has been good this year,lot of movement even when they don't score.

 

[JLP]

If we don't count PK time, guess who is the C with the most TOI by far? MT going back to last year's style. DD and Max in ___ periods?

 

[The Great Weal]

When will MB pull the trigger

At the deadline for a 4th liner.

 

[sampollock]

Need a big leader to take hold of the room

 

[M.C.G. 31]

You'd think a coach would realize this and make changes to the lineup instead of continually smashing the teams head into the wall with the same lineup despite their regressed play.

Lines should have been changed about 4 or 5 games ago.

but he did make lineup changes! Semin! Obviously he's the only reason we win or lose or whatever... that's the answer... yeah...

I'm not sure if our team is closer to the October performance or this performance... obviously we're not this bad, so I'd guess somewhere in the middle leaning towards October, but we need a top-6 impact forward.

Anyways, seems like I made a smart choice switching over to Raw instead.

 

[Canadienna]

Petry's giveaway on the first goal was atrocious

 

[Habs4Life]

back to earth, here we go same bull as last year, same team no cup.

 

[sampollock]

Sit a couple guys next game to prove the point

 

[sheed36]

Pleks really needs to get his head out of his ass.....

Not only Pleks. His buddies Pacioretty, Galchenyuk, Eller need to remove theirs also. I'll even add MT as well who's done nothing to light a fire under anyone on the Pleks or Galchenyuk lines. Only Gallagher is doing anything out there between these 2 lines. Maybe try a little shake up to see what happens to these lines?

 

[Habssince89]

At the beginning of this year, I thought we'd look more like the shortened season team...

but now we've just gone back to hacking the puck down the ice without any real possession. "The system" tends to make our players work harder than they need to, and it leads to slumps like this where we can't catch a break because there is no energy left. Therrien does not coach creativity, and when the energy and speed wares down, it shows.

 

[Rapala]

If we don't count PK time, guess who is the C with the most TOI by far? MT going back to last year's style.

Max has zero acceleration and is ****ed if that remains to be the case.

 

[Mike Mike Caron]

This team needs a Brendan Shanahan and Chris Pronger.

Kassian and Tinordi would fit that.


(who am I kidding)

 

[David Suzuki]

back to earth, here we go same bull as last year, same team no cup.

how's the weather in June? How are the Euros going?

 

[Habssince89]

Wouldn't mind seeing DD and Galch swap wingers for a shift or two

 

[Wats]

They hitting the slump before their super hard December schedule. Going to be a tough few weeks.

 

[groovejuice]

Why is it that every Habs home game sounds like an away game?

 

[LyricalLyricist]

Wouldn't mind seeing DD and Galch swap wingers for a shift or two

You never know, Semin might mesh better with DD than Galchenyuk. Who knows.

 

[Apoplectic Habs Fan]

That would be too many roster moves. Therrien is incapable of more than bench Semin, sub flynn.

Or rotate galchenyuks right winger
