Which hockey mind here can explain why Habs are so good lately? Like gameplay change? Is it the speed? The laine energy surge? Better defensively with Carrier? MSL gameplan finally getting through players head?
Each of these events statistically accelerated the win rate:
1- Laine arrival
2- Carrier arrival
3- Dobes arrival

But there’s two background events that happened
1- One offensive: Hutson on the first PP
2- One defensive: they finally can successfully do the hybrid system

Better defensively (and offensively) with Carrier replacing Barron, who was AHL caliber.

And then add Laine.. everyone could focus on one line before. They can't now, especially since Newhook and Dach have found their games.
Barron score tonight to start the Nashville comeback. Down 4 goals and it's 5-4 now They will likely win
 
I'm mostly happy for Monty. Great bounce back game.
I am as well. This is HF boards, a place where veterans are not valued like the new kids on the block but to be successful you need a good mix of vets and kids and Monty is a very valuable veteran. He made save after save, it could have easily been a 5-2 win for Tampa but he tuned out the noise of HF Habs and redeemed himself tonight. Dobes has 5 wins and all of them are valuable but Monty has been here since the run started and has carried the mail.
 
For all the haters that thinks Owen Beck would be able to easily replace Evans or Armia, stop daydreaming. It's a reality check for you people. Beck is not close to them at this moment and if the Habs objective is to make the playoffs for the upcoming years, KH absolutely needs sign at least one of them if not both. The ones that needs to go are Gallagher and Dvorak by far.

Come on. Beck will be far better than them by the beginning of next season. They are both crap.
