Post-Game Talk: Habs defeat the Red Wings. Solidify WC2 lead.

[Chili]

Wings shots on the left, Habs on the right,

Wow. They'll need to tighten up in the dzone to compete in the playoffs. Super to win tonight though.

This mfer wants to kill David Savard lmfao

I’m saying if he was a dog, we’d just have to for his own sake.

I don't know about anyone else, but I didn't feel nervous about the first period.

The key was to avoid giving a 2nd one on the Wings pp at the end of the 1st. I had confidence we would adjust, plus their pace was basically unsustainable.

I rarely felt as confident in Monty as in tonight's game. It seemed easy for him.

 

[The Real Timo]

f***ing islanders scored. 5-4.

 

[The Real Timo]

Im feeling RockyIV but Dragomov is joinging Rock as a tag team in the WWF

So, if Demidov doesn't score in his first game he is a bust, right?

Rival fans are so salty, but you can see Red Wings fans are coping hard, real hard.

On an unrelated note... Dear RDS, don't put Therrien, Waite and Delorne on the same panel... Because, holy shit...

Its the worst. Waite, PJ Stock and Flynn is another line combination I wouldnt ice even up by 12

My GF legit thought I was doing my daily good deed by listening to mentally challenged podcasters

Cole getting close to 40 but dangerously close to 70 pts as well

Which again is nothing to sneeze at, especially around THESE parts

We don't know what 70 pt players are, let alone a 86 pt one..

 

[Lshap]

How weird is it that we expect the Habs to fall behind and – even weirder – expect them to come back and win.

Totally lopsided first half, weathered the shitstorm, and then did what the team's done so many times...

Not a great model for success in the playoffs, but I guess it's a character-building exercise.

A hat trick will do it to attain both.

Would be sweet if he hit 90, CC 40G, LH 70pts.

To top off this season I want to see Caufield score 40. 31 years since the last Habs 40 goal scorer.

PJ Stock and Michel Therrien…. My Lord. Awful stuff.

Should’ve been easy numbers but he faded down the stretch. Glad he’s gotten a couple of goals and he’s had some good shifts but I haven’t been happy with his play lately.

What were the shot total in 2nd and 3rd for each team? I think Habs outshot them.

 

[zx81]

I hope Hutson didn't get hurt on that block shot late in the 3rd. He didn't come back on the ice I believe

Damn don't stress me out.
Any news on that?

Newhook would never...

Detroit outshot us 9-7 in the 2nd.

Habs outshot then 10-4 in the 3rd.

 

[holy]

f***ing islanders scored. 5-4.

They lost 7-6 in OT lmao.

 

[Saundies]

Rival fans are so salty, but you can see Red Wings fans are coping hard, real hard.

To be fair, they dominated us and still lost with essentially their season on the line and we're where they want to be. I'd be extremely pissed too.

 

[Habssince89]

The best center we got since Turgeon and Damphousse. Nothing against Saku , Plekanec etc but Suzuki is just plain better.

Saku Pre-Injury is more or less on par with what we're seeing from Suzuki now.

 

[Junohockeyfan]

Habs should rest (or bench) Matheson next game. He's making some bad mistakes but it looks like exhaustion. Hopefully the Habs will get a chance to rest some key players.

Team just looks tired. Not crisp, not fast. Tired.

 

[OneSharpMarble]

I just noticed Heineman got sat, any particular reason? We are starting to get a nice depth for players.

 

[Catanddogguitarrr]

PJ Stock and Michel Therrien…. My Lord. Awful stuff.

At RDS it's Gaston Therrien. Michel Therrien is at JiC (Jean-Charles, TVA Sports).
