Post-Game Talk: Habs lose, eliminated from playoffs.

[WG]

Lol at the handshake between Anderson and Wilson, wouldn't be surprised if they are really good friends off the ice.

It's one of the best things about the NHL playoffs. Players go tooth and nail after each other but when all is over they all show respect. Well, everyone but Lucic. But everyone else shows respect.

 

[HuGo Burner Acc]

Fowler plays until he loses.

I agree. All I'm implying is Primeau would've been the starter if he didn't get called up. So it's an L for him

 

[Asdetran]

Do we go all in this summer or not yet??

 

[Forum93]

Wow...saw the nice class from Dowd at the end? saying byebye mockingly towards the Habs.

They are such a dislikable team, hope they get wrecked.

No . It's how sad pro sports has become.

They get very aggressive. I don't know what all in means, but they aren't coming out of this offseason without a 2C

Primeau has been the best AHL goalie the past 2 months but I expect Fowler to get several starts. The best thing that could happen to Primeau is end up in a market like Seattle, Utah. High pressure markets aren't for him.

What a season by Hutson - best rookie season with the Habs in my lifetime.

Full season of Demidov next year.

Reinbacher will graduate and impress in a top 4 role.

Tuch & Xhekaj coming soon to add size to our 4th line.

I fully expect and trust Hughes will be making some trades this summer with our picks & talent in the AHL.

 

[Rafafouille]

The Devils lost their best player.

The Habs were NOT the better team and the Habs lacked goalscoring, so many of the Caps goals were just textbook good goalscoring, meanwhile we got outshot every game and barely had any chances.

Thompson stole game one where Suzuki went ape-mode but aside from that, it was a nothing burger performance.

Game 1: Habs 35 shots, Caps 32
Game 2: Habs 26, Caps 32
Game 3: Habs 40, Caps 21
Game 4: Habs 18, Caps 26
Game 5: Habs 29, Caps 28

Habs out shot the caps 3 out of 5 games.


Expected goals
Game 1: Habs 3.66, Caps 3.68
Game 2: Habs 2.89, Caps 4.12
Game 3: Habs 4.49, Caps 1.81
Game 4: Habs 1.86, Caps 3.17
Game 5: Habs 4, Caps 3.62

Habs and caps are tied 2.5 games a piece for expected goals as well(Let's not hang over 0.02 goals for G1).



Which games were you watching?

 

[Runner77]

No not him, he brought us bergevin.

André? Denis?

We’ve pitlicked a few Savards over the years.

 

[HabsTown]

It is always difficult to judge until you’re in the driver seat and show consistency over a long stretches but I truly believe Dobes has the making of a #1 goalie.

Source: I’ve been a goaltender and a goalie coach. Trust me guys (ok, I’m kidding, think what you want!)

 

[Habs10Habs]

Still love my team. Great effort, they just came up short.

 

[FLHabs]

I'm all in on the Sens bandwagon now

 

[Redux91]

Woke up this morning knowing it was the last game of the year

Still just sucks tho lol

I don't CARE tho, we werent even supposed to BE here yet!
Proud of the boys for an unbelievably successful season
So much to look forward to

Capitals just made a new ENEMY in the East too

We'll. Be. BACK BABY

Can't wait to see the changes this summer!

2C
RD
Better bottom 6ers
Get it done Bosses

 

[Runner77]

Savard will be a coach in the organization next season

Would make for a great teddy bear mascot in the dressing room.

 

[ahmedou]

Reinbacher will graduate and impress in a top 4 role.

Great game by Reinbacher against Cleveland Monster. AHL playoffs. Game 1.

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

I'm all in on the Sens bandwagon now

Wild are the only non scum team left. I could cheer for Ottawa if they weren't such aholes in preseason games.

I think it was close, but I don't think the Canadiens were great. I just think Washington are no where near as good as their regular season record.

They're going to get smoked by Carolina.

 

[Runner77]

We need a power forward like wilson.

Slafkovsky isn't it. He doesn't play mean hockey.

You can’t train a gentle giant in the finest points of assholery.

 

[Habano]

I was just looking up the draft and it's being held at the peacock theater in LA. Didn't they say they weren't going to hold the draft in public arenas or venues any more?

 

[ahmedou]

I'm all in on the Sens bandwagon now

We didou a goodou season!

Our season will be more goodou if Sens are douing a remontada and win 4-3 the series against the Leafs!

 

[FLHabs]

Wild are the only non scum team left. I could cheer for Ottawa if they weren't such aholes in preseason games.

Oh I meant just for the reverse sweep

Edmonton bringing the cup back to Canada would be cool so they'd be my pick

 

[Toene]

So f***ing proud of them.

 

[Grate n Colorful Oz]

Would make for a great teddy bear mascot in the dressing room.

More like a walrus or a whale

 

[Rafafouille]

The biggest loser tonight is Primeau for having to miss game 1 for Laval

One can only hope Fowler is lights out tonight and Primeau doesn't get to play a single game. One needs to the experience, the other isn't part of this organization's future.


Edit: I'm a dumbass it's already 10:30 and game is over lmao. GJ Fowler you stud. Point stands, stay home prims.
