Post-Game Talk: Habs beat the Vancouver Petterssons

[expy]

Suzuki, Slaf, and Caufield cooking.

Great game by Lane Hutson as well.


Game shouldn't have been close ... but y'know.

 

[SwiftyHab]

Got a squeaker out in the 3rd

First line was awesome

Roy getting acclimated to the big league again

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

Ty Suzuki line


that's about it

 

[A Loyal Demidog]

I would have preferred an OTW, only because I want Vancouver to make the playoffs over Calgary lol

 

[Runner77]

 

[The Gr8 Dane]

Stop turtling when you have the lead boys

First line carries us again ! What a night for them

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

I dont think this team would score a goal without Suzuki line

Also Roy sucked so bad

 

[Habs7631]

Is that supposed to look like Slaf? Lol

 

[Hacketts]

good night

 

[A Loyal Demidog]

I really can’t wait for Demigod to join us (and if we can trade for a good 2C). We would then have 2 good lines.

 

[Non Player Canadiens]

nice win bois

last game was a rare outlier, Heineman still = win

 

[BergevinBurner]

30 wins last season, 31 wins this season with 18 games to go. I don't think it's crazy to think we could finish with 40 wins this season. Then next season if Demidov+a new 2C add another 4-5 wins then we should comfortably be in a playoff spot.

 

[Deebs]

Still in da mix

 

[HabSgt]

One line dominance plus Lane & we all know the line.

Habs W, Chris Lee in shambles!

 

[HabbyGuy]

First line was on a mission tonight, fantastic showing by them.

The rest of the game was God awful.

A huge 2 points nontheless, boys just continue to hang around in this seemingly unlikely playoff push.

Good for them.

 

[Habssince89]

Closer than I'd like but great to get a regulation win.

Slafkovsky showing how his impact on the game is not always flashy, but its skilled and smart. Those three have great chemistry. It feels like they're sharing the puck carrying with Slafkovsky more and I think that is when they are at their best.

Monty was good. Can't blame him for either goal.

Roy was better than useless Pezz. He made a couple of decent plays in the 3rd and got a scoring chance.

But anyway thank God our 1st line had a good game because secondary scoring is inexistant.

 

[tazsub3]

The refs were atrocious and let Vancouver back in the game.
The Habs used to lose those kind of games.
This is why March games matter . If you look who stepped up , it is the guys we building around

If Demidov comes as advertised it's going to be massive for us. He should give us a dangerous 2nd line which would be huge considering how much of a non factor our 2nd line's been this season.

 

[domiwroze]

So

The real question is, @OldCraig71 still awake?

The first line dominated every shift except maybe 2 or 3. That’s an insane performance. Monty has been sharp and then soft as f*** as soon as they put traffic in front.

Hutson was good and effective

No one had a bad game, except Pezz but that’s just another day at the office for him. Oh …Chris Lee too.

 

[zx81]

Watching this team trying to protect a 3 goal lead is actually more frustrating than watching them trying to come back from a 3 goal deficit.

 

[Pure Laine]

I hope Slaf can find consistency down the road. He's still such a raw talent.

 

[Miller Time]

Why are your takes so out of touch with reality?

Roy played 13min in his first NHL game since December. He was mostly mistake free, showed poise and assertiveness with the puck, competed hard, and was not the worst player on his line.

Terrible take.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

1st line was dominant tonight. Slafkovsky was beasting.

Great game by Montembeault, too. The 2 point shot goals had a ton of traffic in front of him.

I thought Roy got better as the game went along. He had a good 3rd period.

With the win Montreal jumps into 9th. 2 pts back of Columbus in WC2. We need another win tomorrow night.

Let's go, boys!!

1st line was great. 2nd line was a mess but Roy played much better in the 3rd. Not sure why folks want to hate on a rookie but welcome to HFboards.

Regardless, we badly need a 2nd line center. Next year Demidov comes up, that'll be a big help but we need another guy there to help.
