GDT: Habs @ Bruins | 5/14/14 7:00PM EDT | CBC/RDS/NBCSN

[PricePkPatch*]

It's hard to gauge where his influence comes in and where it's just the innate talent acquired over the years. I realize it's not fair to him but he was pretty brutal at times during the season, and he was completely ineffective in last year's fiasco of a playoff series.

I'm not saying he doesn't deserve credit but the dust needs to settle a bit before we can assess just how good he was. Tonight will be a key moment actually - aside from last game tonight will be the only time our backs are on the wall - so let's see how the team plays, shall we?

How about this idea. You tell me what you think of it:

Therrien has kept a very short leash on most of his talent all years. He either pushed forward or held back on a more sensitive basis, and enforced players following his gameplans.

All of that was meant to create good habits and attitudes from the palyers that meshed well and proved to be competitive. Now comes playoff times, he put down the leash and let his boys play. Who are now BOTH following his gameplan, but also can enjoy some liberation from the leash.


Basically creating a lot of pressure on your players so you can focus and control the inevitable explosion.

Our Rocket in hockey heaven,
hallowed be your stick.
Your Stanely Cups come,
your domination be done,
on TD Garden ice, as it is in The Forum.
Give us this day our Eastern Conference Final,
and forgive us for signing Douglas Murray,
as we also have forgiven Michel Therrien.
And lead us not into desolation,
but deliver us from the bear.

This is absolutely awesome!!!

Great Job!!! Always remember, the Habs are god's team!!!

 

[Redux91]

Kid = our PO's hope
Dog = Bruins
Cat = PK and Carey

[jpchabby]

not sure yet.

Might go with a Quebec microbrewery Ill feel like I support the habs more

À l'abri de la tempête have very good beers... they're from Îles de la Madeleine, and they make some pretty good stuff.

Maybe ZARTONK's gonna laugh, but you might wanna try BSG, they only make gluten free beers, and they have some very good ones. their APA and IPA are good, and they have a belgian season beer which is really, really good too.

....

Is that supposed to be funny?

I think we have proven that Therrien is leading the team on the right path..

Are you trying to credit Therrien for the play of Subban, Price, Bourque, Eller?

 

[Wats]

and the mother?

Referee.

 

[PricePkPatch*]

Are you trying to credit Therrien for the play of Subban, Price, Bourque, Eller?

Yhea. 'Cause a coach has NOTHING to do with the performance of his players.

Nothing at all. Coach are entirely useless. No effect at all.

 

[Madevilz]

Are you trying to credit Therrien for the play of Subban, Price, Bourque, Eller?

I like how everything positive = the players, everything negative = Therrien.

You must be one of those who wanted Claude Julien and Alain Vigneault fired, then cry later at their success.

 

[Gary320]

Are you trying to credit Therrien for the play of Subban, Price, Bourque, Eller?

Yeah, I can see it now.. If they lose, you'll be ready to blame Therrien for not motivating his players in a game 7.

If they win, you'll say Therrien had nothing to do with it.

I get how you can dislike his decisions. I dislike some of his too. But this, this is beyond ridiculous.

 

[Westcoasthabsfan]

Just win baby!!!!!!!

 

[Runner77]

Game plan:

 

[Markov4Captain]

[Et le But]

Keys to the game: PK Subban.

 

[Theosis]

cant even believe what im seeing lol where did you find this!

 

[Tyson]

Spoke to one of my friends who lives in Montreal, I asked him if he was ready for the game. He says "I just threw up". I said "from nerves"? He says "yes"! That is a major league die hard Habs fan!
Go Habs Go!

I know. I don't think I've ever seen such a concerted effort on here to discredit a coach or player. There are a few posters where almost every post is laced with rhetoric concerning something Therrien did wrong. It's pathological. I mean sure, he's not perfect; but come on already, the guy's not the disaster of a coach these individuals are making him out to be. Quite frankly, I think they should adopt this guy as their avatar:

because it is THAT insane.

 

[Habs_Apostle]

And I have to work until 6:00 PM or so! (West Coast Time) Arg!!!! I will be checking here every chance I get, though. You guys better be positive! I want to read that we are kicking the living **** of out them!

Go Habbies Go!!!!!

I've never seen the Bruins lose a game 7 in Boston. 2011 with the Habs, Tampa in 2011, last year with the Leafs. Will today continue that streak? I hope not, but probably.

Boston is 3-0 when I watch game 7s in their own barn.

Bruins were also 14-1 in Game 3s. How'd that go for them?

[YukonCornelius 5thOA]

Your girlfriend is a silly goose.

Mine just texted me that she's making Greek salad, and steak for dinner and picking me up beer for the game tonight.
