I am not the least bit angry. Nor do I care if you are humble about the refs officiating. I am not avoiding seeing anything because "I don't want to sound like a whining baby." I am not hypocritical. Basically, I just see no point in blaming anyone other than the team itself (and some bad luck) for the loss. It is a hockey game - sometime the bounces go your teams way, other times they don't. As I said earlier, it is how the team reacts in the face of that adversity (which I do not believe is a conspiracy or happens to the Habs anymore than it happens to any other team) that really matters. Last nights game was blown, in my opinion, because Ottawa had the momentum in the third and the Habs did nothing more than to try to avoid the loss (as opposed to trying to win). That all culminated in the last thirty seconds of the game when every Hab on the ice panicked and ran around in circles without reason.

Hello common sense, oh wait you're not common sense, you're idiocy.
@ian_mendes:

Horrible choice of words unless he meant to do it.
to be fair, one blown call did directly result in an Ottawa goal. I understand not wnating to blame officials for everything, but when a goal is allowed that should not have been, you can't blame the team for that. And the second goal in my opinion could have been disallowed because Turris was in the crease, and we have already seen a goal disallowed for goalie interference, so a little consistency would be nice. To blame the officiating entirely is mistaken, but to disregard it is also foolish.

As it has been already pointed out thousands of times, +/- has more to do with who you're playing with and who you're playing against than training wheels. Don't tell me Ryder with a +1 needs less training wheels than a Plekanec.
If Pricer would have a pulled an Anderson mega flop when Turris made contact with his paddle I'm sure it would have been counted as 2 goals, I mean disallowed.

In all fairness it's a saying he's not saying they are going to out and pummel them lol. The best revenge is win in 7, we can do it the only question is will we
Agreed maybe I went a little overboard in my original posts about the refs but I was infuriated.

You're missing the point. Even without taking +/- into account, Galchenyuk has shown nothing that would suggest he still needs "training wheels" more than his teammates. Will he need some adjustment? Of course he will. But a team-leading +14 differential and his global play getting better and better offensively as the season went by, plus actually being in the plus in the team's rough stretch to end the season, suggests he's ready to get more responsibilities.
Imagine if PK had laid out a dude in a pool of blood and given that Gryba quote after coming off his suspension.
One thing that was noticeable about him in the playoffs at times he looked tentative to go to dirty areas. Perhaps it was because of all the injuries and players getting run, who knows. The team needs more than Prust protecting their star players though.
Again I'm not saying your not right, just saying that it was ALSO horribly officiated which in turn didn't help. There is no controversy against the us or any other team just last night game was badly reffed.. Do you not agree?

If the game gets to a point where we know we won't come back, I hope the elbows will be flying high and that the knees will be low.
I really hope that doesn't happen. It were loosing for sure and you wanna fight or just lay some clean hard hits ok, but headshots lowblows and dirty elbows? No thanks leave that for some other dirty team

The way they have treated us in that series, that their coach has been speaking about is and that Gryba is speaking now?
I have no sympathy for any of their player. They want blood? I hope they'll get some if the game is over before the end.

Why the
?He's trying to keep his guys from being over-amped. They should be scared, the Habs won't roll over and die.

MacLean seems to be a good coach when the team is on the ice but when he's in front of the cameras he sounds like an arrogant fan. It's crazy how much of a **** he is.

I think one of the things that pissed me off the most is the glued smile in Mclean's face.
So when Ottawa scored the 2nd and 3rd goal, he didn't react, he just kept his same damn smiling face.
He'd lose game 7 in OT and he'd keep that ****ing smile on his face, like he is always above the situation. "Don't worry guys we'll win game 8...oh wait"

He was being facetious, not literal.
Lol I understand your passion don't worry
Not saying I wouldn't like to see someone crush gryba just can't see anyone doing it for the Habs without it becoming a gigantic controversy so if they end up facing the bruins them good riddance lol
