Post-Game Talk: Habs beat the Avs in shootout | 2-1

[Redux91]

f*** it's nice after a win. Why can't they do it more often?

10-5 in our last 15 bud.. lol

 

[Catanddogguitarrr]

Why?
He's under contract for two more years.
He's about to represent Team Canada in a tournament.

Guy has nothing to worry about. If Montreal decides to bench him repeatedly for Dobes, he'll just request a trade - and trust me, there's a bunch of takers.

I don't know what's in the water some folks are drinking here. Some see Monty like the goalie who was claimed, like the first year he was with us. They just don't see how he improved and the confidence he have now, and his technique. It's sure there would be takers, sure !

 

[Natey]

You were one of the rare few in this case because the narrative for the longest of times was that he was a offensive black hole.

Justin Barron career is not done. I think he will have a solid career. If anything it was a good gamble. It will always be when you trade a established player for a prospect.

I think you're wrong because Justin Barron, while offensively gifted, lacks in to many key areas to be effective long term. I fell for players like him before. He's a worse version of Yannick Weber. But I guess we'll see down the road!

They're getting there. Next year the Demigod arrruves!

 

[Heineman Mineman]

We are on unparalleled levels of the mix right now.

Ew! I'm happy that the Habs are closing in on their season objective, but being in the mix for too long certainly must have an effect on your long-term smell cells. All of the teams on this list STINK (TBL included, they have Kuch)

 

[dackelljuneaubulis02]

As good as Dobes has played. I think you still have to come back with Monty.

Especially if Dobes may have been a bit hurt. Don’t want to aggravate it

That's .666

 

[Runner77]

if they deal Dvorak, i think beck gets the call

Essentially, at the Habs’ beck and call.

It's been like 2 weeks

I'd heard this game was unwinnable

 

[ReHabs]

On Monty: he’s much improved. Can’t deny that.

Very happy if Monty/Dobes is our duo going forward. At least until Fowler comes in.

They needed a SO to win what a bunch of skilless bums ...

 

[Heineman Mineman]

Yes, and I'm realizing just now that being in the mix is a stinky milestone, seeing the teams that are in competition for a playoff berth. Be in the playoffs or gather a top 10 pick. Otherwise, be ashamed.

 

[Gally11]

They're getting there. Next year the Demigod arrruves!

Might see him in April at this rate lol

 

[SergeConstantin74]

Where would the Habs be if Dobes had been with them from day one?

I’d say around 3rd-4th in the Atlantic (+ 4-6 points).

 

[LV426]

Dobes is .975 against 2 Cup champs.

Not bad, kid

 

[Gally11]

I'd heard this game was unwinnable

For Colorado

 

[The Real Timo]

10-5 in our last 15 bud.. lol

Yeah so like I said. More.

 

[Saundies]

Going 1-1 in this back to back was completely reasonable.

Of course, it's the Habs so their win had to be against the objectively better team with their unproven backup starting and their loss against the worst team in the league with their starter in.

 

[Runner77]

Dobes is .975 against 2 Cup champs.

Not bad, kid

Stanley Cup champs are falling like flies.

Four of them beaten on this road trip.

Good win, I think announcers are putting too much weight on carrier. He is not that good.

Disagree. The team is completely different since his acquisition. They needed someone steady and to have a reliable pairing to counter the Matheson/Hutson pairing. Great trade and a very good player.

 

[le_sean]

On Monty: he’s much improved. Can’t deny that.

Very happy if Monty/Dobes is our duo going forward. At least until Fowler comes in.

Timing works with Monty’s contract. Two years in Laval for Fowler. Then he can fight Dobes for that #1 spot.

 

[Rapala]

It's hard for some to realize what an individual can do for the collective when put in the right situation.
While I'm surprised the effect has turned out to be as dramatic as it is I definitely expected a far better balanced back end.

 

[dinodebino]

Great win, great effort. Great post game thread, lots of positivity. Love it.

Game thread, not so much. Many bitches that complain all. The. f***ing. Time. As soon as they trail, man ça devient lourd. Spoiler alert: une game de hockey, c’est au moins trois périodes.

Young team will have lulls. Right now, the kids are proving that they cannot be considered beaten.

Keep it up, Les petits bébés Tricolores. Future looks sooooooo bright. And to think that our superstar player is not with the crew yet…I need shades.
