Post-Game Talk: Habs lose to the Kings who played back-to-back

[Saundies]

Dvo killed us in the last 10 minutes.

Clear 2 on 1 - doesn't do anything. Doesn't pass, doesn't shoot. Just blanks. Gets the puck taken.

Another odd man rush, Hutson streaking down the ice throws it cross crease.. Dvo misses the puck completely.

Sent out for a D zone faceoff, loses it insanely clean. 3-1. Game over.

The guy either just doesn't care or is that bad. In either case, waive his ass. I've seen enough.

 

[Agalloch]

I don't even care.

Can't wait for the draft. (where we will have another high pick)

 

[Sasha Orlov]

Cole Caufield is supposed to be some kind of offensive dynamo. He's the reason michkov wasn't drafted, he's paid 8 millions, he gets every opportunities, he gets all the support, he gets praise everywhere, but I haven't seen him be dynamic since 2021.

It may be time to move on.

And he's also the reason why you draft BPA.

If he isn’t actively scoring goals he is genuinely useless and unfortunately he’s a 20 goal scorer

 

[Canadiens98]

Before the comments of us looking unorganized and soft, please remember that we have 3 rookies out there - I'm not trying to make excuses but there's a reason why you don't see any top teams with that many rookies out there

 

[zx81]

Not even worth a detailed analysis.

WE f***ING SUCKED
Pretty sure a cardboard goalie would have beaten us tonight.

P.S.
Stop giving important faceoffs to Dvorak.

Going to give away my tickets to the Rangers game too.

Michkov > Caufield

But also somehow,

Reinbacher > Michkov,

because.............. reasons.

 

[Apoplectic Habs Fan]

At least we will be privvy to some profound MSL philosophical type of comments during the post game press conference

The Philosopher Kinglet can teach us all about Concept hockey

Thats the stuff you learn from coaching 8 yr olds

 

[NobleSix]

I dont know how they let MSL run wild on that bench without an experienced assistant coach. He's getting exposed.

 

[HuGo Sham]

smallish team with crappy vets and a youngish core.
I don't know why Pezzetta isn't playing to at least wake these
guys up.
I find Arber is in a difficult situation, as he's the only real physical presence on the team outside of Pezzetta (anderson, yeah right) and he can't fight because habs are then down to 5 D. The trade-off with 4th line goons is terrible, so he seems afraid to play on the edge.
As I've already written, so many holes up front with guys like Dvorak collecting pay checks and that's' about it.
Second line is a 3rd line and Dach is still playing himself into game shape.
Cannot wait for Hage and Demidov to get here, and Florian / Tuch get enough reps to create a true 4th line.
The team is just not built properly, especially up front.
Can't rely on a 5'9 162 lbs dman and 5'7 sniper along with a 5'9 gally to win games vs big trapping team

Is Caufield a f***ing rookie?
He's starting to PISS ME OFF more than Max Patch ever did.

 

[Agalloch]

Caufield has 4 goals this year. I mean, he's there to score and he does. He had a off game tonight, yes.

 

[Mrb1p]

That's my point. I love Cole if he's gonna score 40 a year. I don't love Cole if he's gonna score 23 a year.

 

[Sasha Orlov]

It’s ok guys we’ll get 1st overall again this year and draft a mid level player

He has 4 goals in 5 games, relax.

He's not paid to be more than what he is, which is score goals and be average basically otherwise. If he can score 35+ the value is fine.

I'm way more concerned with Dach although we need to be patient. All in all the habs were brutal but they were also a few missed chances away from tying it in the 3rd.

Anyone who is expecting anything more than a 20th place finish league wide this season is optimistic

gg!
eee .... eee....
eee...
BARRON GOAL!!!

eee...
HUTSON BODYSLAM!!!

 

[Max2]

David Rittich is one of the worst ice hockey goalies on planet earth, and the habs made him look like Kenny Dryden from 1975

I don’t know if you’re joking or not? He’s scored 1/3 of our goals.

 

[CoopersFalls]

Dvorak should get a seat in the press box. Two lost faceoffs that lead to goals. Two on one and he takes so long he doesn’t get a shot or a pass away. 4.5 mill. Horribly useless player. Contributes nothing.

 

[HuGo Sham]

Not even worth a detailed analysis.

pretty sure they couldn't give this guy away for free right now.

John Tortorella doesn’t call MSL to give him some pointers from time to time?

 

[Sasha Orlov]

He’s there to score and can’t pot 30, very elite

 

[Hoochi Papa]

That was awful. Against Ottawa I was somewhat surprised that Lane Hutson was already the best player on ice in his fifth match, now it's just sad how much this team relies on him. First period was decent but from there on it was an absolute ass for a performance. At the moment Habs is a one line team and if that line plays subpar or badly, there's very little they can do. No one expected this season to be easy or Canadiens being above bottom third but this Kings team wasn't very good at all. They just whiffed last two periods.

We need to draft another big defensive RH D.
