GDT: Habs-Leafs Pt:III

[Lafleurs Guy]

I'll happily relive that 08-09 season over we are going through now. At least that team had some skilled players and likeable players.

Markov got hurt just before the playoffs. I was at the game when it happened.

That series was... horrendously bad.

 

[Koivu11]

Scariest part of it all is Bergy and Ducharme likely come back with a freshly signed Danault

Bergevin extended.
Ducharme returns.
Danault 6x6M.
Tatar 5x5.5M.

Can you imagine?

 

[Ezpz]

Who thinks the Habs will score this period?

 

[CristianoRonaldo]

Galchenyuk looking great out there tonight!

We did not ruin him enough, even though we tried our best.

It was a good team the first half of the season. We were missing Markov, Lang and Tanguay in the playoffs. If they were playing and we had Halak in net I’m sure we could have won. I still believe it today, we had a good team.

 

[M.C.G. 31]

Caufield, Kotkaniemi and Romanov, were sat to start this series so they could sit... and learn... from the bullshit they threw on the ice. I'm still not over that. This team is gutless garbage.

What can they learn from a bunch of veterans who no-show when it matters most? I’m sure they learned a lot from our defense not being able to move or our supposed offensive wingers not being able to get clean shots off or hit the net.

 

[Fledgemyhedge]

4 goals in 4 playoff games should be a good enough narrative to end the MB era

 

[Vukotal Recall]

Hal Gill had the turning radius of a school bus and yet he'd be our most nimble defender even now in his 50s.

 

[sandysan]

He's inconsequential to the future success of the habs. It really doesn't matter one iota if he's not kept around after this season.

The fact that this type of over the hill player is a bright spot shows you how depressing this team is.

That's a management problem
Not a Perry problem

People don't like him becuase he won't buy into a pie in the sky hopefully sometime in the future tank

 

[BigDaddyLurch]

Bergevin extended.
Ducharme returns.
Danault 6x6M.
Tatar 5x5.5M.

Can you imagine?

 

[sandviper]

Nice, another 40 foot shot with no screen.

 

[donghabs98]

How Bergevin regressed every year on the job makes no sense to me. The man decided to built a team for 2011 in 2021

 

[Mrb1p]

Ah I see. Thanks for the clarification. I thought you were saying that we have one too but I think that's just a myth.

Its probably going to shoot some kind of smoke when it goes off, hasnt been used since 93

 

[Capz]

i just want a caufield goal

its the only reason we are all still here

 

[Andy]

Losing to the Leafs isn't what's frustrating to me, that much was expected. Losing while benching the kids, that's bad. Losing while playing like offense is an afterthought, that's bad. And most of all, this is the ficking Leafs, these two teams have not faced each other in 60+ years, they are historical rivals, this is the POs, and there is no meanness or intensity to this group. I don't recall ever being so embarrassed of this team. Even when we faced Boston and they'd beat all our guys, or Ottawa, we still were bringing some intensity.
Today? It's as intense as an all star game.
Puke worthy. Disgusting.

Could you imagine the media anger if Gauthier was the GM of this and koivu the captain?

 

[Monsieur Miz]

A shot from the blue line with no screen.

Lot of creativity.

I don't hate anyone. Except Marc Bergevin.

 

[Apoplectic Habs Fan]

5 more years! 5 more years! 5 more years!

I agree, had we been healthy we would have been more competitive. That team had a lot of bad luck

 

[Hansman]

Players are lucky there is no fans,the boo birds would be loud.

 

[HeussLenfoire]

I miss the times when we were bad but we had real leaders ( not Weber leaders ) like Koivu and Kovalev carrying the team against the powerful Boston Bruins

 

[LastRide]

Suzuki sure does lose his stick a lot.

 

[RandR]

William Nylander, who plays on the Leafs SECOND line, has as many goals in this series as the entire Montreal Canadiens team.

 

[DubDub]

This is the worst series in the playoffs!

I remember PK talking about him: "It's like he's somebody's dad..."
