Post-Game Talk: Habs defeat the Caps in OT

[The Gr8 Dane]

PP 1 looks like a mess , Slaf was good on pp 2 but meh at 5 on 5 this game

Where would we be without Monahan? We aren't even using him properly on top of that.

 

[HuGo Burner Acc]

All these posters calling for burrows to be fired obviously don't want a top 10 pick

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

Cole so good. Imagine if we’d had him in the mid 2010s to go with Carey…

 

[Runner77]

Can you Suzukimania us too please?

There you go!

Only watched the last 13 minutes and it was enough for me to almost puke my whole supper.
What I saw from the PP was simply disgusting. The formation we use will never work, even if we practice it 2000 times per week. This is just poor coaching.

Can not comment on individual performances as I only watched a few minutes but from looking at the stats and some highlights it looks like Allen had a good game. Good for him.

he's gonna break Gretzky's record before Ovi does

i like how suzuki is still putting up points even when he's not playing that well.

i love this guy

 

[Nedved]

Caufield is a goal scorers goal scorer. hot damn. that was a sexy, sexy snipe.

 

[Non Player Canadiens]

Caufield does everything well: snipe, skate, pass, dangle, swagger

 

[Team_Spirit]

The ending made a mid game a little bit more exciting.

Monahan, Evans, Allen and Caufield played well. The rest had their moments.

The power play did something(!)

 

[RationalExpectations]

Allen won this game. Shameful display otherwise. Don t understand PP strategy and lineup (stop putting Anderson on PP1 and why not use Barron who is supposed to be an offensive minded D who is a RHD which means it will give CC an edge)

 

[YukonCornelius 5thOA]

There you go!

Thanks pal! Gets me every time.

 

[Ovie's Neighbor]

Congrats on the win. First game in Bell Center and it was electric. Definitely a bucket list for me. Fans were really into it and super nice. Good luck on the rest of the season.

 

[Rapala]

I can't believe reading such bad takes on Suzuki tonight.
The Dude was 68% on faceoffs set up numerous players numerous times and ended up with 2 primary assists.
It's night and day compared to his previous three games.

 

[The Real Timo]

Just caught up with you ppl. That PP is disgusting. I can't f***ing believe Burrow and MSL are still coaching. Give me a break. THey have no clue.

Habs lucky it was the Caps and even then they managed to almost blow it.

Also, the shine is off Matheson. He had a horrible game. Worse than Savard, if that's even possible. I hate our "top 2". Both are terrible but Matheson really brought the extra stink tonight. He was so bad I didn't even notice Barron.

Anyway, we are in Da Playoffs, yes?!

Oh and ma man Jake Allen had to be hot. He was.

What did you have for supper though? Context is important here.

The Good: Jake Allen, Cole Caufield, Sean Moneyhan, Dylan Strome that Bastard

The Bad: Alex Ovechkin, Mike Matheson, Drop Back Pass

The Ugly: Habs Power Play holy sweet jumping Jesus on a pogo stick please fix this it is the worst thing since covid wait I think it was from before covid holy god help us

 

[JuJu Mobb]

We want our players to produce tho.

Thank you for the courtesy. Hey at least you guys have a championship in the 21st century!

 

[Milhouse40]

I think it's just because of Dvorak absence, once he's back, he's probably going to be with Caufield and Suzuki

 

[HuGo Sham]

nice to get a win. I know we all want Burrows gone, but we don't have the D to QB a PP. Matheson has looked f***ing awful this year. He was Bambi tonight, tripping over his shadow. He looked like a goof on the first goal against. He's not a QB PP nor is he a 1st pairing D, with gulp, Savard.
The speed of execution on the PP is incredibly slow - teams also collapse down low because we have no legit bomb from the point except maybe Xhekaj.
Can't wait for Mailloux, Hutson, Reinbacher etc.
It's incredible how much of the glue Dach was. Without him there's no depth. For the 10000th time we need to draft another game breaker like Caufield.
Allen was good, kept us in the game.
Also they need to practice shooting on net; unbelievable the amount of shots that missed tonight

 

[The Real Timo]

I think we should of hired the sedin twins to run our pp

We can hire literally ANYONE and they will not do worse. Michael Therrien comes to mind. I think this is what Habs need.

 

[Bottle Rocket]

Hey let's trade for Mantha and healthy scratch him. He played 10 minutes tonight.

Worst thing is I wouldn't be surprised. Hope we get a good compensation if we do.

I disagree about MSL, the talent is average at best, and I think Hugo loses the team if they move on from MSL. Every player loves him.

Burrows can go though, and we can bring in a vet to compliment MSL's coaching style.
