Post-Game Talk: Habs lose in Boston

[Rapala]

For my standards for Anderson that was a great game. Gally and Hutson also played exceptional. Suzy and Slaf have to get it together, not near enough compete or urgency. We will be in the lotto again, the lack of talent is a huge issue but we can’t even say we are out working the other teams either at this point. Also gtfo Matheson.

Anderson was one of the best forwards...Says everything right there.

 

[Hannibal]

Give time to Xhekaj everybody. He missed the end of the season, and barely played in preseason. It’s always longer for bigger guy to start. Look at Slaf. It’s not like we are a good team anyway.

 

[Tyson]

Kapanen should stay in the line up!

 

[zx81]

0-14-1 vs the f***ers.
enough

Sad..
Now I will completely forget and forgive this one if we can end our 9 loss streak against Ottawa Saturday

 

[sbhatt]

Primeau was putrid.

 

[NobleSix]

Primeau will not last the whole season. This guy is not an NHL goaltender.

 

[Tyson]

Give time to Xhekaj everybody. He missed the end of the season, and barely played in preseason. It’s not like we are a good team anyway.

I am not giving up on him. I feel for any D paired with #52

 

[Rapala]

Matheson plays too many minutes and has no business on the pp; keep him for 5v5.

Would be sweet if Hutson and Guhle are a thing now.

The problem is the other two pairing sucked sooo much once that switch happened...

 

[Le Barron de HF]

I don't agree with the Barron bashing. Don't be surprised if he makes mistakes when he's suddenly playing every other shift and his partner is having a terrible night. I saw him be physical at times and I liked his involvement with the puck. His usage should be gradual though. Not 0 to 100

 

[Whitesnake]

Team is soft soft soft.

Right now, it matters not that much. But in due time, you will NOT need a BB on a bottom 6. You will not have a Gallagher either who is too slow despite the scoring. You will not have a Anderson who glides. The bottom 6 right now are not made to start momentum. In due time. Hopefully.

 

[Bottomshelf]

It’s crazy that we win that game if Monty is in net

 

[Sasha Orlov]

When it comes to handling the puck I think Primeau is the worst goalie I’ve ever seen

 

[morhilane]

Anderson was one of the best forwards...Says everything right there.

He's been putting in more efforts at both sides of the ice and makes better decisions with the puck. Still a low IQ player thought, but he's fine on the bottom 6 if he continue playing like that.

 

[Adriatic]

Bruins are a good team, got humiliated last game and this was their home opener. They were waiting for this game so a loss was predictable. I only really have one issue.. this constant collapsing in our zone and on the pk. Wtf is going on with that?? How many times can let the point players walking in and take a slapper from the high slot??

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

You played against an experienced team with one of the best NHL defense include using the first pass. And look who was the best in offense. Experienced players (Evans' line) and only young Hudson in defense (from not so big players). It's a growth issue, nothing wrong with that. Also all of them played very agressive hockey.

But with all due respect, Barron shouldn't be in the roster IMHO, he wouldn't be in the top 4 even in Columbus with all the injuries to defensemen. And if Gudbranson, Bernie, Peeke and Bayreuther are in the top 4, that says a lot.

Maybe it is time for Pazzetta.

Boston defense maybe good. Their forwards are crap.

 

[Habano]

I know some of you hate him but Anderson at least works hard and imo had a good game.

 

[74 others]

Team is soft soft soft.

Caufield is super soft

 

[Saundies]

I know some of you hate him but Anderson at least works hard and imo had a good game.

He did have a good game. So did Gallagher and Evans.

 

[Rapala]

I am not giving up on him. I feel for any D paired with #52

His suck-a-tude was far worse when they paired him with David Savard.
Savard was skating in cement which is why they moved Hutson off his line.
Hutson/Guhle were great but it destroyed our other two pairings.
We missed having a Struble able to rotate in.

 

[Big Lurk]

Lets all relax..

 

[Habano]

Give time to Xhekaj everybody. He missed the end of the season, and barely played in preseason. It’s always longer for bigger guy to start. Look at Slaf. It’s not like we are a good team anyway.

Why give him time? Trade him so when other teams take liberties with our skilled players, Barron or Hutson can stand up for them

 

[Kimota]

What if Gally has 30 goals come the TDL?

I know what you're thinking!

 

[SlafySZN]

Hutson was the best player.

Caufield, Gallagher, Evans, were also good.

Dach played well yesterday, he had a tougher one tonight. Suzuki needs to wake up.

The collapsing was happening far more than just on the PK.
We turned turtle in our zone the very second the Bruins had sustained pressure.
The amount of space we give teams is ridiculous flippin' acres of it.

My concern is he hasn't improved since being acquired. Am I wrong?
