Post-Game Talk: Habs beat the BJs and their cannon in Columbus

[Ezpz]

You lose some you win a couple. It's a long season. No one should expect we drop every game against trash teams like San Jose, Columbus and Anaheim. LA stomped us and I'm sure other playoff teams will too.

Enjoy the wins when they happen. Even if we finished dead last we'd find a way to pick third and our player would get a knee injury two months after the draft.

 

[Rapala]

It does …. When you factor in what line he’s playing on. But, you don’t seem to understand this.

So he played half the month with Monahan and half with Suzuki keep skating like you always do. 3 points is not good.

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

Worst period of hockey from CC that I’ve ever seen.

After that he was much better. Awesome shift with Slaf where it looked like they were on the PP… A Jeckle and Hyde from him tonight.

So then why are you screaming for Ylo?

 

[Runner77]

What a blast by the 5-star Human Being.

 

[Rapala]

At least he can skate and forecheck.

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

At least he can skate and forecheck.

But he only has three points!!!!

 

[Rapala]

It IS awesome that we are better than those teams, yes!

The thing is I'm not so sure about that at least talent wise.

 

[Miller Time]

6 pts out of a possible 8 in this 4-game road trip.

MSL is doing a heck of a job with a young roster that has 2 key injuries & on most nights is clearly less talented than the opposition on paper...

As much as a high pick is sought-after, hard not to appreciate the level of compete & resilience we're seeing out of this group on most nights.

Future is bright

On the fourth line keep going...
How much TOI vs Gallagher?

 

[The Great Weal]

LMAO. I'll tolerate any youngster that isn't a plug getting points. I'll cheer for 2 players to get points. Of course the vets are going to get points but was hoping it wouldn't be in a crucial tank game.

This post makes no sense lol. Suzuki and Newhook aren't plugs, and stating that two players should only get points is an asinine comment.

Slaf is growing in confidence each game. It is a beautiful thing to watch.

Can't wait to see this team with Dach back.

We need one more top 6 forward and we are gold.

I don’t think people understand that he’s set his lineup to help development. Two vets per kid. I do agree Ylo should be moved up and I’d put him with Monahan.

I get that MSL is trying to help Anderson through his slump but enough’s enough.

He didn't do that last year with CC-Suzuki-Dach

But lines don’t matter. That’s what you said right?

If lines don’t matter then neither does TOI obviously…

 

[BLONG7]

One less than the Leafs, which I was surprised to see they only have 5 regulation wins on the season.

Ahh, the Cup pretenders, da leafs!!

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

CC wasn’t a ‘vet’ last year. He had half a great season coming in. Honestly, last year we were even more green than we are now.

His lineup makes sense. But I do agree that Ylo should move up to Monaghan.

 

[HabSgt]

Fair enough. But sometimes hard work can overcome raw talent.

& sometimes not...best is to have both but if only one is available, then go with hard work.

Patrik Laine come on down!

Agreed.

Agreed!

We need a lot more than that!

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

I thought he had some great moments but that first period wasn’t great. CC was way worse though.

They had some great shifts together later on though. At one point it looked like we were on the PP. some of that credit belongs to agile as well though.

I think you may benefit greatly from reading comprehension or literacy all together. I said I'll tolerate any youngster that isn't a plug getting points, which means I'll tolerate Suzuki, Newhook etc... getting points. I did not say that Suzuki and Newhook are plugs.
I also said I'd cheer (personal preference) for two players to get points.... not that only two players should get points.

Hmmm....progressing slowly? Seems to me this is what managment said about Slaf when he was drafted.
