Post-Game Talk: Habs defeat the little cubs.

The Habs didn't have a great game, but they looked like the much better team, which is bound to happen when facing a team that has 3 legit NHLers on defense, none of which should be playing above #4 on the depth chart.
Dominated the 2nd period, shot 17-2 Swayman was the only reason the score was not 5-6 nothing after two periods.

The Bruins do suck on D and F..............all they have is Swayman and Pasta.
 
I don't know if it's just me but that game was boring compared to the Florida Home and Homes...

I'll take borining 4-1 wins from here to eternity.

Its not just you. This is what happens when the game is out of reach well before the end of regulation.

The games against ottawa, colorado, and florida at home were much different in that sense and were extraordinary theatre.
 
I feel terrible for Xhekaj. If he was the one to have played the same first period that Strouble played yesterday, he would have been benched. Not only Strouble played again, but was still struggling all game. He was over carried by Hutson in that strech and it shows.

Maybe if he would have played in Boston university or known Hughes since he youth, he would get the same treatment as Stuble.

We’re about to make a big mistake this summer. Easier to replace the impact of Struble than Xhekaj’s.
 
bruins teams is a shell of their former selves. Can’t say I’ve ever seen them this bad in my lifetime
Have to go back to 2000 for a pick inside the top 7. Quite a run. We can only hope the pick works out as poorly as that one did. lol


woops. Two glaring oversights ...

I disagree, Struble was very good yesterday outside of 1 turnover. Savard was the worst player on the ice tho.

Xhekaj is a bottom pairing D and he sat because Struble has been better. Savard should've been the one scratched but it is what it is. The victimhood around X is laughable. He's not the centre of the universe and MSL doesn't hate him.

Struble looked bad since his with Savard. And its only been 3 games lol.

X was stuck with Savard for 70 + games.

Flat out embarrassing post.

I think you need to rewatch the game. His first period was atrocious and he wasnt that better the
Rest of the game.

If arber played that kind of first period, he would have been benched. 100% sure.

You aren't wrong about his first period that pairing was terrible.
The second period Boston never had the puck.

What mistake are we going to do exactly this summer? Savard is most likely gone by summer and a spot will open next year.

None of Struble or Xhekaj can play RD. So Savard gone doesnt mean shit for both of them beside the fact that they doesnt have to play with the whale anymore
