Post-Game Talk: Habs beat Jackets 5-1

[70Stang]

time to go on a 10 game heater now lol

 

[CanadienShark]

I fell asleep after the 1st, but wow Evans genuinely looked talented. Not just hardworking, but really good.

 

[Skip Bayless]

Maybe an unpopular opinion but the little huddle bow thing they do after wins is exclusionary and just seems weird.

Like celebrate as a team in the locker room, not with your personal buddies on the ice.

I agree.

No Michel Therrien, but it does feel clique-ish.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Dach Cole and Dvo are a bit cringe and weird. They have that zoomer tik tok energy.

They need to make a law that if people are doing that cringe shit and annoying people you're allowed to punch them in the face with some force.

Or at least shove them.

Trading Toffoli to Calgary is looking a bit better now that Heineman is showing he can play at this level.

He's a quite good player. I hope he can sustain his play over 82 games, but what he's showing is promising. He's a bull on skates, loves to hit, plays north south with high compete and has a canon of a shot. I like what he brings.

 

[HabbyGuy]

I'm always fair with the boys. I'm hard on Caufield because he's so much more than just a Mike Hoffman.

Always fair huh?

I do appreciate you giving Cole some flowers though, good on ya.

 

[Mrb1p]

Hey Matheson was good too tonight.

Yeah I guess. He can get lost though.

The two points he got from missing his shots lmao. I guess it's better than whatever he gave us before though.

This f***ing board clearly has MT Trauma

MT ptsd

Yes. As in I don't blindly cheer for players when they're ass, but when they're good, they're good.

Except Matheson that guy can get f***ed

They have to take the season one game at a time and if they do that they might actually be in the mix AKA just missing out on the playoffs but staying in it till the end. In the mix to me is more about being competitive game to game, and the only way to do that is to play one game at a time.

I think that they definitely have improved the last few games in terms of defense and I don't mind the loss to Minnesota because they're too good but it's good to see us beat Buffalo and Columbus because if we're being honest this team isn't lacking the ability to win games. It's important that the team be competitive and not just tank again if they can help it.

In the end, if they do have the tank so be it; but it's way too early to start thinking about tanking, especially when the division and the Eastern Conference has been a lot of .500 hockey.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Columbus played last night & it was their 3rd game in 4 nights, so no surprise they fell apart. Still, it was nice to win it with a big margin.

I loved Xhekaj's, Heineman's & Caufield's game tonight. Heineman is a perfect 4th line winger for us. He also brings some offense & is a constant net front presence. Xhekaj great game, and an even bigger fight.

D played well, and it looks good without Savard. Next game is Monday against Edmonton. I wouldn't mind seeing how these 6D do against McDavid et al.

Montembeault was steady in net.

Good win. (It moves us from 32nd overall to 29th.)

Monty interviewed on Spanre:

 

[BeliveauFan4ever]

Heineman sure looks hungry to earn his place and keep it. Very impressive.

Cole playing with an edge is good.

Well earned and entertaining win.

 

[Habssince89]

Therrien was hilarious but he was also the worst.

 

[zx81]

Yeah I guess. He can get lost though.

The two points he got from missing his shots lmao. I guess it's better than whatever he gave us before though.

He got 2 points and made a lot of nice plays defensively and offensively.

Against a bad team he can stand out .

This was us back then though :

 

[SlafySZN]

This is the most consistent stretch of games i have ever seen from Josh Anderson. Happy to see him playing well.

Yes. Not producing that much but use his physicality/speed and plays the PK now and seems to have found a chair for himself, not putting pressure on himself to produce goals and points.

 

[Habssince89]

Heineman sure looks hungry to earn hus place. Very impressive.

Cole playing with an edge is good.

Well earned and entertaining win.

Heineman is a lock . Brings everything lehkonen does but he can hit the net lol. Idk if he'll end up as good as lehky but such a similar player

I miss when Connor Dewar on the Everett Silvertips would wait by the bench/tunnel and kiss each and everyone one of his teammates on the helmet as they left the ice lmao

LOL
That's it Pezz is healthy scratched for the rest of the season.

 

[ryan callahan]

Matheson-Hutson needs to stay. Load up the 1st line and hope for the best.

 

[Mrb1p]

This was us back then though :

What do you mean back then?

 

[JianYang]

Can't read too much into it. One last place team beat another last place team that was playing back to back.

 

[zx81]

This is the most consistent stretch of games i have ever seen from Josh Anderson. Happy to see him playing well.

It's the Gallagher effect imo.

Patty's injury will heal faster off the vibes of this W lfg
