Post-Game Talk: Habs lose to the Leafs. Fail to clinch.

[Runner77]

 

[Saundies]

Don't we just need a tie?

No. It was 3 points non regulation, 2 regulation.

Down to 2 each now. Can win in OT/SO and clinch now though.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Suzuki went for it in OT. He just missed. No crosscheck call on Tavares of course.

Detroit, NYI & NYR were all eliminated today. We need 2 points against Chicago to eliminate Columbus. Hopefully, Pezzetta & Kapanen are out, and Heineman & Demidov are in.

Columbus plays Washington tomorrow, but I'm not expecting Washington to win that. They're playing a trash lineup.

Team might have done something in the 3rd, but Pezzetta took the dumbest penalty ever, which led to a secondary penalty. That killed whatever momentum we had.

Toronto got in the way of & blocked a lot of shots.

Let's get the win we need at home.

Bruh imagine getting this roster into the playoffs

The first time his roster isn't one of the most injured in the league and he might make the playoffs

Blackhawks aren't going to be easy. They just lost in a shootout to the Jets.

They don't even need to tank. They aren't catching up to Nashville even if they win and they aren't catching up to San Jose if they lose.

who's saying that tho?

who's saying that tho?

read the thread. Like I said it’s surprising

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

We can clinch tomorrow if CBJ lose to WSH.

Washington are taking it easy. They gain nothing by winning or losing. CBJ will probably win. We just have to beat Chicago...

 

[holy]

So we got a point and eliminated Detroit? Good. One team to go. And our phenom on Monday. As planned.

People forget where we came from. Go watch some season reviews from February,

 

[Grate n Colorful Oz]

2 brutal back to back games

Keeping the Leafs at 0 goals in 60 minutes isn't brutal.

 

[HabbyGuy]

Boys left it on the ice tonight, thought it was a real gritty effort, not sure what the hell you're all expecting from this young mishapen roster. Toronto blocked a ton of shots.

Embrace the underdog tag and appreciate what they've accomplished.

Go Habs!

 

[Schooner Guy]

Blackhawks aren't going to be easy. They just lost in a shootout to the Jets.

Two years ago a Blackhawks roster that was torched to the ground eliminated the Penguins in the last game of the season.

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

No CBJ can still hit 89 and have more regulation wins than us.

Daaaaagggg...

 

[Miller Time]

Not many inspiring performances lately. Very disappointing couple games.

I expect CBJ to win tomorrow and all of the pressure will be on us Monday night.

Fortunately, tonight was.

We've set up a playoff spot unless CBJ wins 3 straight or we fail to get 1 pt in 2 home games, one against the Blackhawks.

I like our odds.

 

[Team_Spirit]

Still in the mix! Double header special because it's Saturday.

 

[holy]

He'd be far and away our best player and the one who has done the most in clutch situations to win.

He's clutch 3 on 3 lmao, don't let that fool you.

 

[JianYang]

He'd be far and away our best player and the one who has done the most in clutch situations to win.

Maybe on the nhl 25 console but I'm speaking in the context building a cup contender.

 

[TomKosto]

Keeping the Leafs at 0 goals in 60 minutes isn't brutal.

8 shots in what 50min of play is DÉGEULASSE!

 

[tazsub3]

Washington are taking it easy. They gain nothing by winning or losing. CBJ will probably win. We just have to beat Chicago...

Maybe the 7-0 loss will hit their pride at home

 

[Garbageyuk]

He'd be far and away our best player and the one who has done the most in clutch situations to win.

Everyone knows you’re some Leafs fan’s alt.

 

[Forum93]

Not starting Hutson in OT is baffling.

That's called elite coaching. My God, MSL is dumber than I thought.

 

[Whitesnake]

If you’re going to criticize Matheson, please don’t criticize his skating. He’s an amazing skater.

Clearly, you didn't understand my point. I'm saying that WHILE he is a great skater....I STILL wouldn't use him on OT.

 

[Tyson]

Dobes 2 goals against in 2 games. That's solid back up goaltending.

MSL needs to do some line up tweaks in a big way though.

 

[NobleSix]

If we lose to the blackhawks on Monday I'm going to lose my shit.

Nothing can ever be easy with this team. Fully expect it to come down to the last game of the season.

 

[sheed36]

If Demidov plays Monday I'd move Slaf down to another line and play Demidov with Suzuki and Caufield. Slaf just isn't bringing it right now and really needs be more engaged in the play rather than just coasting and watching.
