Post-Game Talk: Habs defeat the Sabres on first of head to head

[red devil]

Ron MacLean just confused Thompson with Greenway as he said Thompson was hit near the end of the game causing another scrum

 

[CapSpace]

Dobes is a punk and I love it.

 

[japhi27returns]

Dobes has a ridiculous amount of confidence which is a super power for a goalie. Thought he looked a bit shaky early but love the swagger. Didn’t even flinch on that cross check bluff.

 

[red devil]

One of the best Habs teams not to win the cup

Back in da mix!

Good catch. Was wondering wtf he was talking about

Greenway needs a serious beating on Monday.

Great recovery after a not so hot start for Dobes. Ditto the rest of the team.

Lane Hutson is the most creative defenseman we’ve had in a very very long time. It’s crazy that he’s about 40 points better than the next rookie defenseman this year. If we find the right partner for him on the right side, and he’s able to work on his shot, the sky is the limit for this young man.

I reiterate that Mr Greenway needs to eat a few solid knuckles after that display tonight. Sabres plan was to obviously try to rough up Dobes physically and it backfired. Dobes chirping at Greenway after Struble flattened him into the boards was awesome. Fat David lumbering over and doing nothing was not…

Huge win.

But @morhilane said the Habs would never win four in a row with Matheson on the team. What happened? Did Matheson get traded and I missed it?

I wish...

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Should be a good one Monday

 

[Kudo Shinichi]

3 pts out of a playoff spot

Kind of wanted Dobes to go all Hextall there. Lol.

 

[CaptnNemo]

He probably threw him a line from the slapshot movie...

"Hey Greenway!! J'ai fourré ta femme!!"

 

[HabSgt]

Wait that's a bison not a buffalo!

Cole is goal. Hutson is the future.

Can't believe we've won 4 in a row for the first time since 2022.

What a time to be alive.

Heineman for MVP

 

[Rozz]

4-0 without Guhle since the break is crazy. Thought we’d curl up and die

it's such a great and reassuring trend to witness... the boys are growing and learning to win despite injuries and rough patches.... which the last couple years these things would completely kill our season and we would just curle up and die. But the boys are figuring it out! they progressing before our eyes this year... its beautiful to see!

Disgusting display of the entire team tonight. All these after whistles activities and yet no one dropped the gloves. Then at the end there, Greenway that shoves Dobes and Savard didn't even do shit.

Disgusting and spineless team. You expect Suzuki or Caufield to step up and fight? Where are the leaders on this team?

How are you gonna win a physical playoffs series if you are spineless? And where was Slaf tonight? All talk.

and here i was going to write that they played the perfect road game and kept their cool and were not tempted to retaliate. So i guess we can say lets agree to disagree.

 

[OldCraig71]

Heineman for MVP

There is something about him being in the lineup, he is going to be a solid Hab for many years to come.

 

[HuGo Sham]

Lots of “playoff” games down the stretch…flyers x2, Boston, Detroit, isles etc. going to be fun

It will be ok Jabba11

Chippy ass game. Boys were in it the whole time though. I was worried going down 2-1 but they stayed with it and finished it off in the third.

Buffalo normally has our number too so it's good to see a W especially there.

Dobes played really well.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Chippy game. Monday should be fun.

Struble has really stepped up in the absence of Guhle. He's much better at LD & Hutson seems fine on the right side. He's making solid plays in his own end & playing physical.

We need an upgrade on Savard. He is sloooooow. Hopefully, Reinbacher, eventually.

Dobes had his awkward moments, but played well.

4 consecutive wins!! Whooo-hoo.

Also, Columbus did everyone a favor by sweeping the home & home with Detroit. We're 3 points out of a playoff spot now & there's no longer 5 teams ahead of us. It's down to 3: Boston, Ottawa & Detroit.

We're one point back of Boston with a game in hand. We have another game against them, but not til April. We're one point back of Ottawa, but they hold a game in hand. We still have 2 games against Ottawa. The next one in a couple of weeks.

We also still have a game left against Detroit, which is not till April. We jumped the NYR tonight.

Good stuff.

I'm just thinking. If Dryden got shoved by someone, pretty Robinson/Savard/Lapointe would have made them paid the price.

When it's time to compete, I hope we get better veterans to help guide the young guns.
