Let's do this, boys

 

[Kennerback]

Slaf had 7 goals and 12 assists in the last 20 games to end last season....needs to be reunited with Suzuki and Caufield.

Dach has Slaf’s role on the PP for no apparent reason. What do they expect Dach to do? He’s not a shooter.

@Adam Michaels actually did an interview

 

[Skip Bayless]

Any confirmation on Laine ? I read that he’s not supposed to play

If Laine was playing you'd be scrolling down this thread and you'd see things you're not supposed to see, ever.

Gallagher had 10 hits yesterday. TEN. Caufield 0, Suzuki 1, Newhook 0, Dvorak 1, Evans 1, Dach 2, Armia 2, Roy 1. The guy who could barely skate last year is showing more heart than all these young soft as shit players. He has more hits than 8 players combined... what the f***.

This would've been a great question in the post game presser last night.

If all our guys played with the heart Gally does, we'd rarely lose. Absolute warrior

Sont-ce les canons?

Oui Monsieur

 

[Habby4Life]

Lose tonight and they will get smoked in NY and Boston.

[TRG]

So, even with Slafkovsky and Darche in the coaches doghouse, Pezzetta still sits. The f*** is going here. Why put in a spark plug when your team has no battery power.

Tabarnak, Darche is back.

It's gotten to the point where I don't want to watch the games. I'll check it out and if they're playing well, I'll stick around. But I refuse to waste my time if they're playing like shit. It's happened too often and it's not worth it.

Last year, at least even in losses, most games, they played good and the effort wasn't questioned. This year, not so much.

I'm watching Laval, or the CHL vs American players and then sticking with those, or cats and Leafs.

Losing is absolutely acceptable, but losing when no one cares from either the players, coaches, or management is unacceptable.

 

[McGuires Corndog]

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

Where is she now? She still in the house?

Ca sent pas la coupe en tout cas.

Yup

 

[waitin425]

Slaf and Dach have been absolutely atrocious. The team has been dog shit this year.

This team needs something to happen soon. Give it 6-8 games after Laine plays. If adding his star talent doesn't give. the others room to play well....it is time to move on from MSL.

 

[Rapala]

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

We were 1-12 going into that Philly game but they were equally rested not well rested.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

If the Habs lose tonight and look like crap again, do you think a single media member will ask any question of substance ?

 

[Rapala]

The problem is because were not really in clean possession, we are in possession but still battling for time and space still.

Nothing is being generated because we aren't really creating, we are mostly fighting to keep the puck, which is not real puck possession.

Our puck possession has been Lane Hutson beating two or even three guys yet still having very few options at the other end.

 

[HabbyGuy]

I sign that says "Give Effort" should be on the wall so the players can see it.

For most of the team the problem is not effort, it's execution and lack of depth. Marty keeps overusing his better players and they become gassed, it's a bad recipe. They need to clean up their execution to give themselves a fighting chance.

I keep reading Marty has lost the room, I don't think he has, this team still tries, but is just off, can't even complete passes, seems like it's been that way most of the year. I think this piss poor execution is being misinterpreted as lazy. It's more lack of focus.

 

[Rapala]

funny how that works

effort = playing time

I'll take Heineman over Kirby Dach on PP1 every time.

 

[Habby4Life]

If the Habs lose tonight and look like crap again, do you think a single media member will ask any question of substance ?

No, they have drank the kool aid and most think Bombay is this great coach. If it was anyone else they would be canned by now.

 

[SwiftyHab]

If the Habs lose tonight and look like crap again, do you think a single media member will ask any question of substance ?

“MSL, how are you so awesome?”

“Why does your awesomeness not translate to stats, wins, progress, or entertaining hockey even though you and everyone on the team is awesome?”

“Can you tell me more about your successful concepts, systems, and philosophies and how you’ve incorporated regression and losing into those winning strategies?

“Who does your hair?”
