Post-Game Talk: Habs lose 4-1 to Canes

Back down to Earth.

These guys are cooked. Not even trying to be a hater, they are just all out of gas. Everyone looks dead out there. Our first line has disappeared, our PP is garb.

They're not even in these games. It's not like they're fighting hard and losing, they're just being outclassed.

They've given everything they've had but it looks like they'll fall just short.
 
Frustrating game to watch. did we even ice the puck once. we usually get a ton of icing from the breakout trying plays, just a bunch of nothing tonight.
 
Really disappointing outcome. Adding a forward or two would have helped immensely at the deadline. They just had to get a few points and they'd be solidly in control of WC2, instead we've gotten a string of losses where they looked like complete ass. The team is crumbling under the pressure.
 
This team, just a few games ago Anderson was getting emotional after being chosen 1st star and talked about the playoffs, f***ing pathetic.
It’s not pathetic, they’re burnt. I saw that against Colorado. That was their last hurrah. But mentally, they’re spent.

Calling them pathetic is pathetic. This is not a playoff team, it’s still a rebuilding team. They have punched over their weight class since December.

Young team. The same thing happened to the Flyers last year. Flyers ironically lost a crushing game to us last year down the wire.

Which would have been a good reason to use mid-round picks for depth. Just a little help for a team that was going to eventually run on fumes.

Hopefully Matheson's last 11 games as a Hab.

(mod)
He's still our second best defenseman and the team collapses without him.

There is not a single player available by trade or free agency, or in our system or in the draft where we are likely to pick, who even projects as being at Matheson's level, warts and deficiencies and all.

Playing with 4 players would be better than having him on the ice.

He is not the 2nd best defenceman on the team. Guhle is far better than him. And Struble is too at this point.
