[waitin425]

Despite being losers of 3 straight we are still sporting a 7-4-2 record for the month of January.

We need a win against the WILD!!!!!

Habs, Sens, Bruins, Jackets, Lightning, Wings, Rangers, Flyers, Islanders are all within striking distance spots 6-8.

EVERY GAME IS A MUST WIN, I AM SO SCARED!!!!!

Let's get Dobes back in the net. Let the big boy stop some pucks!

STAY POSITIVE!!! BELIEVE IN OUR DOBES!!!! CHEER HIM ON!!

I don't know how much more my ticker can take boys!

BUT WE MUST PULL OUT THE VICTORY!!!!!

Marty will go back to Monty because that's what he does.

 

[Benstheman]

Kaprizov ain’t playing.

5-1 Wild

 

[morhilane]

Fact: Habs don't win against the Wild (9-22-1 record against them).

So welcome to your 4th programmed loss in a row...

The Wild will be gunning for 9 in a row against us which would tie their life time record.
However we did beat them 4-0 in 2020 but we haven't beat them on their home ice since 2011
A lot of us remember that 8-1 drubbing we gave them.

This is a WTF is going on opponent with two long streaks of straight out losing since 2014 in which they've gone 18-3. I don't understand why I don't bleeping hate this team.

Lose this one and I soon will...

They are pretty good with Kaprizov. Without him they aren't. Kaprizov and Boldy are the team.

 

[sampollock]

sounds like Fleury wants the CH game

 

[MarkovsKnee]

I imagine Fleury plays his final game in Montreal, which will have the masses conflicted. I'm sure he'll get cheers, etc.

I would go with Dobes, but I expect MSL to go back to Monty due to the Fleury hype.

At one time, Quebecois goaltenders were the dominant goalies in the NHL. Now, it's down to 2: Fleury & Montembeault. Next year, there will only be Montembeault.

Louis Dominique & Yanic Perets are minor leaguers, who have played an NHL game this year.

But it's all the Habs fault for not drafting from the Q. Totally weren't warning signs for years that Hockey Quebec was focusing on politics rather than developing players.

Could see Fucale coming back to the NHL as a backup. He’s been really good in the KHL

Yeah, I read he wanted another chance at NHL. We'll see what happens there.

[schwang26]

At least Kaprizov is out.

He ain’t coming to the Habs. We have 2 guys.

It’s Canada in general. The US has surpassed us in development and Europe and Russia have been producing goalies for years now. I remember when Russian goalies were generally crap and Sweden and Finland weren’t giving they’re goalies growth hormones yet!

Canada overall yes.. but the Q isn't even producing forwards or defenseman. Even the Territories with Cozens and McKenna gonna have more talent produced in the last 8 years compared to the Q.

... and why wouldn't he? Probably half the audience will be his family and friends.

 

[Team_Spirit]

Struble recalled

Guhle is cooked

 

[red devil]

 

[WeThreeKings]

Dobes confirms he is starting.

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Not gonna lie, win, or lose, I'd be fine with Fleury being named the number 1 star of the game for him to take a lap, as you know he will

I wasn't expecting him too....
