[teamfirst]

Ca sent pas la coupe en tout cas.

 

[sampollock]

The players will be too tired and even more demoralized. So blow-out game in-coming.

By the way, you think Gallagher can top his 10 hits in the last game?

YUP
coming off that performance the cannon will ignite 5 times

 

[Tyson]

Non

 

[Team_Spirit]

Habs somehow beat them 10 days ago.

4-2 Habs, late eng.

 

[overlords]

Brace yourself Marty

 

[The Real Timo]

The only thing I really want to see tonight is more Kenzie.

 

[donghabs98]

Yeah Al Montoya still has shell shock from the 10-0 loss that Therrien kept him in the game the entire time.

I bet he has PTSD today everything he hears any boom sound

Yeah like Primeau only gives up 2 goals...ain't happening

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Price was so pissed that he did that, too. He tried to come on & Therrien said no.

He should have just said FU to Therrien and stayed on. What was Therrien going to do about it? If he complained to the GM he would likely be fired.

 

[Habssince89]

I can see the team coming out and playing well....only to have primeau sink them.

Not concerned with the team tbh. there's a difference between adding pieces too early to move up the standings, and adding a piece to stabliize the team. The team cannot continue without a 2C. And what I mean by that is the team can't afford to keep losing in this way, which impact development.

I have no delusions about the playoffs, but Hughes has to do something for the sake of the young guys. There's only so much these wingers can do if they don't have a proper C

I remember that, so disrespectful to Al Monoya...that had to be so humiliating

Just like Carbonneau with Roy. Both coaches should have been fired.

 

[Tyson]

You mean Tremblay, agreed

 

[red devil]

I would bet Laine is back tonight, pretty sure he aimed CBJ for his return

pretty sure Laine will be playing tonight

 

[The Real Timo]

So... I don't see a lot of optimism about tonight. That kinda aligns with the feeling I have.

 

[Kobe Armstrong]

Monahan PPG this season

Would be our best player

The kind of game we usually win

i dont on the road

 

[Trabdy2]

I don't have warm fuzzy feelings about this one. Regulation L incoming.

I imagine Primeau starts?

 

[Grate n Colorful Oz]

Well if tonight doesn’t finally sink Primeau, I don’t know what will.

I wanna see Connor Hughes getting a call. Done with noodles.

 

[SwiftyHab]

I would bet Laine is back tonight, pretty sure he aimed CBJ for his return

pretty sure Laine will be playing tonight

I’ll take both those bets!

When was the last time the Habs won the 2nd of back to back games against a rested team?

 

[red devil]

 

[Gillings]

I think tonight is a response win, but what do I know, My wife wears horse masks.

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

You mean Tremblay, agreed

Yes. Why do i keep thinking of Carbonneau there? Price should have scared the hell out of Therrien by telling him he would ask for a trade if Montoya wasn't pulled.

Better that than she doesn't need to wear a mask to look like a horse.

 

[Habssince89]

y'know its funny there was a time where the habs had way less talent on their roster, worse shooters, and they'd pepper the net with 40+ shots (to score 1-2 goals). Now we have a team with some legit shooters, real young talent and no one wants to shoot.

In countless ways, hockey is always about balance. MSL really needs to start preaching shooting and things should improve. The possession and zone time we get hasn't been bad in these low shot games, its just the fact that we're doing nothing with our time.

Take for example the play where Slaf used his body to protect the puck high in the zone, the slipped it to Armia (who missed). We should be working those plays all game. set plays to get shots on net. Its the best way to get defenders moving out of position and who knows you might score on a few.
