Post-Game Talk: Habs defeat Roy and the Isles

[No More Subban]

Seriously, what was that response from the isles?

I feel like when they watch that over they'll be coming for him next game.

gally should be benched next game vs isles. it'll just be all about him

It happened pretty fast. I didn't see the elbow at first and thought he had highsticked him accidentally. It was only on replays I saw the elbow. They went after him, but officials got there quickly.

gally should be benched next game vs isles

agreed.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

EEsh...St-Louis answer or lack of it regarding Xhejaj says it all....Arber on the hot seat again.

He's going back to Laval after the game on Saturday. We'll see if Montreal recalls him after their 9 day break.

It's about coaching. I watched highlights and last minute or so was utterly pathetic. And it's it happens game in and game out it's bad.

Our pp has improved but our pk is still brutal.

True, but it would be better if he was benched for several games beforehand.

 

[Cournoyer12]

Glad they won as the Roy Show was in town. Honestly left a bitter taste how he left

Gutsy PK attempt but ran out of gas.

Frustrating to see a good first nearly thrown away with half assed second, and a third marred with Gallagher being an idiot

Defensively just cant get their shit together. Its not about opposition or talent. Its every game. Same poor defense we saw tonight, we saw vs teams like SJ.

Monty was battling all night as team defense is just non existent

D is almost California Golden Seals bad and Monty is stealing games ala Gilles Meloche for those of you who remember!

So will there be accountability for Gallagher or will MSL pander to a veteran yet again? Because it’s now I think the 4th time the season he’s taken a selfish penalty in the 3rd. Pezzetta took a penalty in the 1st of the Sens game and was benched the rest of it.

 

[CHwest]

terrible hit by Gallagher the nhl should terminate his contract

That was horrible, roid rage?

 

[sampollock]

MSL needs to make a statement on Gally

 

[Cournoyer12]

That was horrible, roid rage?

Maybe that’s it, hair loss, somebody check him for Backne!

 

[CHwest]

Jesus Christ you guys aren't really going to use this moronic play by Gallagher to turn this into a referendum on him, just so you can blast your frustration on Bergevin for giving him that contract are you?

We all know the hate y'all have on the guy.

Dumb play but let's not get twisted over this.

He's a dumbazz and has played like one for the last three years. Selfish player.

 

[The Real Timo]

I don’t trust MSL to do right By Xhekaj.

He deserves the hate. I don’t give a shit what he did in 2017. It’s 2024, he’s an awful player and now he’s a selfish one.

 

[1909]

The team and himself (Gally) are prisoners of his fat contract.

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Who did Gallagher hit? Pelech? Did he leave the game?

 

[HabbyGuy]

He deserves the hate. I don’t give a shit what he did in 2017. It’s 2024, he’s an awful player and now he’s a selfish one.

I dunno man it just seems weird to me to blame a player for his body breaking down. Especially one who eagerly sacrificed it for his team.

The anger is misplaced in my opinion, it should be pointed towards Bergevin but he's no longer here, so Gally gets it.

His contract is not his fault, nor is his failing body, we loved him for the way he played when healthy but are seeing the consequences of it now.

C'est la vie, it is what it is.

I just don't think a warrior like him deserves the scorn he gets for fighting too many battles.

Maybe it's me, but that's just the way I feel.

 

[salbutera]

Who did Gallagher hit? Pelech? Did he leave the game?

Yes and Yes

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Yes and Yes

If he is out for awhile maybe Lou would be interested in Savard.

 

[CauZuki]

Monahan classic trade bait , ramping up right before TDL...Awesome.

The scorn is for stupid penalties, which he takes more and more of. Just plays a stupid game and people think he is a warrior? WTH. He makes it about himself far to often, there is a reason he is hated league wide.

Roy was a hockey God to me. But what he did that night was inexcusable. Although apparently he tried to mend the fences, it was to egregious of an insult to both the org and the fans (with his arms in the air gesture when he was getting the raspberries). The biggest mistake from the org was firing Savard before he pulled the trade and letting Houle botch it. Dumb all around by all involved. And the only real victim was us fans.

He's just as respected as he is hated though (this was a one-off). That's the truth. I agree with HabbyGuy. If only we can have another Gally as he was before his body broke down. He was a helluva player. Could score and fought harder than almost anyone every single shift. He's finished now. But he was a great player and leader for us.

 

[dinodebino]

For sure. He has a bizarre fixation on the Habs and will pick the contrary opinion every single time no matter how delusional.

Maybe he’s whiskeyseven reincarnated!

He needs lots of work. He's playing ball hockey out there right now...really, really casual with the puck.

If they trade him Hugo and MSL will have a lot of explaining to do.
