Post-Game Talk: Habs get a win in California. Defeat lowly Sharks.

[expy]

Average performance against one of the league's worst, but manage to escape with the win.

Caufield, Newhook, Gallagher, and Armia with the goals.

The goalie finally makes a timely save, but still a sub .900 performance

They tried their hardest to blow it at the end. At least we know the boys are on team tank.

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

We somehow managed to beat the worst team in the league playing a more than average game

im proud to have stayed up for this.

 

[Non Player Canadiens]

not his best game, but Monty's clutch save on Celebrini got us that win.

shout out Armia-Evans PK superduo too

 

[badfish]

Imagine the sharks had tied it on Evans giveaway at the end lol

 

[Riddick412]

Not pretty, but very important W and that's what counts tonight.

MOAR BECK

 

[The Great Weal]

Not to be a pessimist, but there's not much to be happy about this win. Team needs to be a lot better. You can thank Georgiev for tonight.

 

[Canadienna]

It was just Marty's 100th win curse that was preventing us from winning.

We'll get back to our unstoppable game now I expect.

 

[SlafySZN]

Barely scored on the PP too.

Ya, only 8 PP goals.

Don’t know if he’s still the first 5 on 5 scorer in the league?

 

[Pomee]

Ugly ugly win.
We suck right now.
Every player! Everyone!
Good Night!

 

[Svart]

I've been yelling at my TV way too much lately. Not impressed.

 

[Apoplectic Habs Fan]

thats how you break a streak boys

Unconvincingly beat the worst team in the league

Armia was clutch tho

We're really not as good without Guhle and Heineman.

Hopefully next year the top 6 forwards and top 3 D are better able to carry the team through injuries.

 

[Grand Admiral Thrawn]

When you win, but you really lost.

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

A win's a win.

 

[Walksss]

Only watched the third but we sure know how to make things interesting. It looked like SJ was gonna convert on that late powerplay but instead we get the shorty.

Nicely done but this performance puts me firmly on team tank.

 

[HabsCode]

It's only because we opened the armored vehicule thread again. All of this downfall could have been avoided.

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

When you win, but you really lost.

It depends. if they lose the next 3 then that will be true.

 

[Beendair Donedat]

Evans needed to be more selfish or get it in deep at the end there, but seeing as how he set up the shorthanded game winner, he gets a pass. Could have been Patrik Stefan-esque though if the Sharks had scored.

I’ll be honest and say I thought the Sharks outplayed them for a lot of the night.

Beck had a great game, I thought Carrier played another solid one, and Kirby Dach was light years better than he was against Anaheim. Good to see Newhook hit the scoresheet as well, and even got the extremely rare assist to take him to 6 on the year! Evans and Armia with the game winner, shorthanded, was impressive.

 

[VT]

From what I'm reading it's my understanding that Laine tried, but there's a mental block. It must be awful for him, he recently came out of the NHLPA program, injury and mental problems again.​

​

And Beck will be a center instead of Dvorak whom you can trade.​

 

[Kimota]

Sometime I wish Evans had more "du chien" like a Lapierre had. Where you care so much about winning that you do the impossible and make sure you do not put your team in trouble by lazy plays.
