Post-Game Talk: Habs defeat the little cubs.

[The Real Timo]

FFS, Rags have 2 games in hand, so techincally still can catch Habs. Sigh.

At least BJs lost. Argh... this is still too tight for any kind of comfort.

 

[Fledgemyhedge]

Its been a while. They probably havent been this bad since 1996-1997

I was born in 98 so that checks out

 

[Jurivan Demidovsky]

Gallagher is having the 7th most productive season of his career. With much less time on ice then his early seasons. Not bad at all.

 

[sandviper]

Not one complaint about our "Captain" scoring an EN?
Damn times have changed...

Somewhere, Pacioretty is punching air.

Rangers and habs have the same games played.

 

[Deebs]

A healthy Gallagher is still a very useful player. He's been a warrior for us.

He's had a terrific year

 

[Big Trout]

Yeah it's one franchise that I would take pleasure in them sucking for a solid decade.

I prefer when they're good enough for us to beat them in the playoffs (minus that one year)

 

[Guiness time]

Solid game against a crappy team. These are never easy though.

Maybe it's the wine talking, but Suzuki is starting to remind me a bit of Yzerman.

Guhle was solid, been playing great since his return. I argued that he was not an untouchable, but he is starting to make me rethink this.

GHG!

 

[No More Subban]

Laine just coasts out there. He is a liability.

Caufield would be the same without Suzuki. Both need a decent center to play with.

 

[The Real Timo]

Right. Was looking at the wrong place.

 

[Junohockeyfan]

Caufield would be the same without Suzuki. Both need a decent center to play with.

No, Laine just doesn't have it anymore. Not sure if its the injuries or his complete lack of effort. He's just completely useless when not on the PP.

That Guhle and Hutson pairing has my plums tingling. They could do wonderful things together

The good news is we will get to try him with Demidov next year who is a play driver.

What's Next?

 

[Unclewhalebone]

The Kyle McLaren - Richard Zednik era was awesome for the Habs-Bruins rivalry. The best games and seasons are when those 2 teams are close, not when one of them completely obliterates the other one.

I was at that Kyle McLaren - Richard Zednik game. My first playoff game ever. The tension in that building was crazy that night. Some guy went over the glass and out onto the ice in a break. Crowd wanted "justice".

 

[The Real Timo]

What's Next?

Hopefully beating flyers and preds on the weekend. All without Xhekaj.

 

[ZUKI]

For which team ?

 

[Jurivan Demidovsky]

For which team ?

Do you remember young Gallagher in his prime?

 

[Goldenhands]

Habs top line is the most productive in the league since the 4 nations, they are also great over 200 ft. The Gally Dvorak Anderson line is really solid as well, the vets line is doing an amazing job. Now I just hope we can have a 3-4 pts lead so we can slot Kapanen in and see what he can do, if ever Kapanen has an impact right off the bat and we enter the playoffs with 3 dangerous lines, watch out, I wouldnt like to face the Habs in the 1st round!

 

[dinodebino]

Having lost 9 straight and playing against a hated rival, I really thought that Boston was going to bring more than that. They have totally checked out.

I don't think they have a long rebuild though. They'll probably have a similar one as the Habs. The top 5 pick they'll get this year is going to be a very good player.

About the game though, hated the first, but completely dominated after that, that was really good to see. They have to do the same thing against Philly too. GHG!!!

Isn’t this a weak ass draft?

Rangers and Habs have played 75 games each

I always thought he was near untouchables cause he is our most well rounded D. Physical, determined, but also can help relaunch the attack. I even considered making him our Captain. But his injuries have become an issue. Hopefully if we make it to the playoffs, he won't get injured.

 

[Zorro]

If the habs win both games this weekend, that will officially eliminate a couple teams from the POs

That 2002 team had a special aura to it. It’s to bad the wheels fell completely off seemingly out of nowhere in the 2nd round against Carolina.
