Matheson's a trooper too. You know his heart's at the right place. He throws himself in front of pucks like he doesn't care. He has the team's best interest at heart. Plus he looks like the best of teammates. And is super gifted in every skill and physical measurment. Yet he's dumb. You can't have it all...

That's what blew me away. I expected a close fight in the third period. With us unfortunately losing a close 2-1 game.

Nah, as fans just sit back and enjoy what Suzuki is doing. Dude is turning in a closing performance for the ages.. not since Price has 1 player been so valuable to our team.

He does something stupid every single game. Thought he's supposed to bring a veteran presence. Makes me miss Josh Gorges lol

We do. Columbus is 2 points back with a game in hand. If they win that game in hand, they'll tie Montreal in points & RWs, but Montreal has more ROWs. That's the 2nd tie breaker.
Columbus doesn't play that game in hand until Thursday, April 10th against the Sabres. Both teams play 4 games apiece til then, so we'll see how those go.

Underrated play by CC on the OT goal. I have watched quite a lot of ot's this season and I'm telling you, 80% of the players would have dumbly retreated in the center zone.
If you don't want to use Xhekaj as a D (which is stupid), at least bring him on the 4th line over Pezetta or even Armia, who's useless with his injury

She'll have to beat me first
Josh Gorges was everything that Matheson is not. Not physically gifted. Not skilled. Not a great physique. Had nothing going for him really. Yet the guy had a solid career and was even captain in Kelowna!

So, here we are, April 1st and the Habs are currently in a playoff spot. Not many sincerely believed that would be the case at the beginning of the season when they started 4-9-2.

Its fun and all but suzuki and Hutson will need help sooner or later.

Because he supposedly can’t skate backwards.
If I'm coach I'm using Guhle in all those critical moments without a question.
It has been very reassuring to see that the Habs possess players that can carry the puck and a coach that allows them to do so. Unfortunately, playoffs are 5 on 5 :@

There's just no way you can play Savard again. He was catastrophic. Live with Xhekaj's bad pinches and reads, at least he can skate.

So. Which tattoo parlor are you going to?

If Hutson gets a point on the OT goal I’m tattooing my entire upper body as his jersey

He needs his minutes reduced. He does have great qualities but he does also have brain farts. 18 minutes seems appropriate. But the other D need to be able to make up for those other minutes.

Great game! Great win!
Glad everyone's ok in here now. I had to shut off HF Boards after the 1st because the game thread was so negative and there was so much finger pointing.
3rd youngest team in the NHL. They have totally defied expectations by being in a playoff spot on April 1st after two big wins against the defending Stanley Cup champs. People need to cool down and just enjoy this.

Schedule update: the Rags, Wings, and BJs are all in the top 5 for hardest schedule.
Habs now have the 2nd easiest schedule

In a foxhole, I'd want to be with Matheson. You know he would take a bullet for you. That's what's unfortunate.
