Post-Game Talk: Habs good. Habs win.

[OneSharpMarble]

Dobes
Game 1: 0 goals
Game 2: 1 goal
Game 3: 2 goals

I dont like the way this is trending, I think we play him like 1 more game and then trade him.

 

[Jurivan Demidovsky]

So Caufield start to score profusely again when Laine is out of the line up

Caufield scores 5 on 5, Laine scores on the powerplay, it's perfect.

 

[Kennerback]

I think even with Demidov in the lineup, Hutson is the franchise player but hey, let's hope I'm wrong and we have two of them.

Well Hutson is in the NHL and looks like a franchise player so he’s in the pole position. What’s incredible is that Hutson can do everything he does as a defensemen. No other D does so much magic. On the other hand, Demidov can technically do everything that Hutson does and much more. They both think the game at a mastermind level. So we’ll see.

 

[JustAHabFan]

We don't even have our franchise player playing for us yet either.

Incroyable

One franchise defenseman, it's Huson. One franchise forward, it's Demidov. Hopefully. Dobes or Fowler can become a franchise goalie. If this happened, the Habs should win multiple Stanley Cup.

 

[Canadienna]

Last time we had this good of a run we had Sven Andrighetto on the team.

 

[JustAHabFan]

scenario: Habs continue to gel as a team, emerging as unlikely contenders against all odds, and start to look like the '86 Habs reborn. then, in the spring, geopolitics intervenes. tariff wars between the US and Canada gets real nasty, culminating in a total breakdown in diplomatic relations. right around May, faced with no other choice because cross-border travel is suspended, the NHL decides to cancel the Stanley Cup playoffs.

whenever the league starts up again, the magic is simply gone and the HuGo Habs return to mediocrity. the life of a Habs fan: we are here to suffer

Whatever happened just enjoy the moment.

Who was the franchise player for the Islanders dynasty? Bossy, Potvin or Billy Smith?

Who was the franchise player for the Islanders dynasty? Bossy, Potvin or Billy Smith?

Yes. Did they win 4 or 5 Stanley Cup with these HOF?

 

[Kennerback]

Yes. Did they win 4 or 5 Stanley Cup with these HOF?

Yes. Plus they had: Clark Gillies=Slaf and Trottier=pick one: Suzuki or Caufield.

 

[yianik]

For real this schedule has been brutal and yet the Habs are on fire. The points have been well earned and the boys must be appreciated for their work, including management, coaching etc.

 

[1909]

Savard and AX are a much better pair. Strub just doesn’t impress me. I don’t think he compliments AX like Savard does.

Because he is playing on his wrong side.

Yes. Did they win 4 or 5 Stanley Cup with these HOF?

4 in a row.

I can't wait to see our little russian baby jesus join this core

 

[Runner77]

Our number one defenseman is a 20-year-old kid that should have went first overall lol. We got two number one picks in one draft.

À number 1 defenceman that we passed over twice (on top of our 1st OA pick).

The old axiom of rather being lucky than good, worked in spades.

 

[The Great Weal]

Now I'm actually gonna be annoyed and disappointed if we don't make the playoffs. I thought we might be a bubble team coming into the season but now we're cooking

Exactly. The team is rolling, but some players can definitely be upgraded. Dvorak especially comes to mind. Savard as the #7 man would also be great.

Playing some damn good hockey, hope they keep it up.Aside from a few blips hear and there their forecheck,stickcheck, backcheck and winning the board battles are off the charts. They look like they’re carrying weed whackers when they go in and attack the opposing players.Next up Dallas .

Yep I agree just like Tampa did with Ducherov, Bobbleheadman and Vasyles-skis

can't, been burned too many times.

jokes aside though, i am quite impressed and loving it.

 

[Uber Coca]

A win against a red hot Dallas team tomorrow and I might cream my shorts.

 

[JustAHabFan]

I heard it on TV that we have beaten the last 5 Stanley Cup winners on the road.

The Grillo effect is very evident to me we are not the same team anywhere on the ice.
Three and even four touches to exit our zone or lobs when nothing is available. It's more than just Carrier coming on board. These players are aware in all three zones. WTF

 

[holy]

We should be excited we haven't seen Slaf in first class form all season. He's a beast when he's on, told y'all he just had to get over that hang over. It's all over.

I don't think it has anything to do with Grillo. If you listened to MSL over the years, this is exactly what kind of system and team play he's wanted to implement. He's added little by little since he's been here and players are slowly getting NHL experience. You can't blame him for what's wrong then dismiss his impact and shift praise when things are doing well. He's the one reviewing mistakes, team play and making adjustments directly with the players every day.

 

[Tyson]

I was there when they beat Atlanta late in the season before the strike. Cliff Floyd, with a home run. Magical moment. Felipe Alou and MSL, great leaders that players will follow and play for.

On August 12 they were about 40 games over .500 and then the season ended and ruined my summer.

Whoa!! What in the world happened to this website background? I can't tell if I'm hallucinating or my laptop screen got possessed by the devil!
