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

[Rapala]

Can't believe the penalty they called on Savard and then the no high stick on Nylander.
That is two games in a row we are getting absolutely beaten down with bad calls.

 

[Laboeuf]

5 points is still a lot to make up. Columbus needs to win all thei final 3 games.

 

[dinodebino]

We lost in OT against a potential cup contender, tired.

And we got rid of three teams today.

Our diamond in the rough goalie with Laval came as advertised. The other kid goalie was amazing.

Out phenom is getting integrated quickly and will play in f***ing Montréal, in front of 21, 273 crazy folks. Guys will be pumped and will win it.

This forum makes Reddit become reasonable. Which is scary.

 

[Sam de Mtl]

Thanks Dobes. That point could prove to be the difference maker between making the playoffs and an epic collapse, when it's all said and done.

 

[Svart]

LOL This thread is hilarious
Everybody wants to fire everybody
Get a grip

 

[larek]

Dobes not happy.

I wouldnt be either, i'd go through at least 5-6 sticks in the room

In a shooting gallery with his team shooting blanks- he's all over trying to stop shots from all over the place
And that's a leaf team that wasn't that good tonite
No wonder he's mad
Every game he gets bombarded

 

[expy]

Don't we just need a tie?

Nope, we needed a regulation win today to clinch, to ensure we don't lose the tie breaker. We now need 2 points of any type to clinch.

 

[Tyson]

Daaaaagggg...

Washington got embarrassed today, they play them again tomorrow in DC...I hope the Caps compete.

 

[Kudo Shinichi]

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

Because having Hutson instead of Matheson in that 2 on 3 would've changed anything

 

[RandomTask26]

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

Ugh don’t remind me. Because of that, the Panthers made the playoffs and instead of getting the 14th pick we got the 31st.

And because the blackhawks won, they jumped up to 3rd overall (from the bottom), won the lottery and got Bédard

 

[Fledgemyhedge]

Dobes did everything we needed from him to get the win. Good effort

 

[larek]

If they don't make it then yes I would say someone needs to get shown the door

 

[Rozz]

well, it definitely sucks to not get the 2 points, but my god some people on here are so over the top lol... lets step back from the ledge lol oh well its the HF boards way lol

Anyway, not a great game.. but Dobes stole us a very crucial point.. 2 points more to go... or 1 Columbus loss... dont care how we clinch i just pray we clinch by Monday.

and OMG Demidov will be in next game!!!!!

WOOOOOOOOOO!

That was bad. These last four games have been bad.

 

[Miller Time]

flat footed start as per usual. Bad powerplay. Didn’t ever really look dangerous outside of a few good shifts by our 1 good line.

Not at all. Was a great first 10min, on the road, against a contender, in game 2 of a back to back.

Newhook line won its shifts.
Dvo & Evans lines were even or better.

Refs & PK time tilted some the stats, as did missed nets.

They won’t. They are probably laughing at that game. It’s pointless for them

 

[Prettyisland]

Glad the Columbus caps igame got out of hand and feisty today. Washington has some short term vendetta to play for tmrw

 

[JianYang]

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.

The rules change around the crease, but that infraction at the net essentially knocked Suzuki out of the play.

Refs usually call things when the infraction can lead to a dangerous counterattack, but its one of those plays where it likely doesn't end up in anything 5 on 5. 3 on 3 is a different story.

 

[zx81]

Fail to clinch, but they eliminated the Wings and made it so the Jackets need to win all their games in regulation until the end.

Not bad.

They could get 3 otw and pass us if we dont get another point

 

[Treal]

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

I'd call 7 shots through 2 periods pretty brutal but that's just me

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Need to win OT to clinch the playoffs hmmm I think I’ll keep Hutson on the bench

We don't clinch with an OT win. It needed to be in regulation.

 

[goon37]

Slaf can be so frustrating to watch. Drive the net damn it. Its tight games like these that his big body should be crashing the net creating space for others to shoot.

 

[Tyson]

That was bad. These last four games have been bad.

Yep this isn't the time to go on a bad streak.

 

[Grate n Colorful Oz]

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

They need 3 regulation wins to gain the tie breaker. If they win a single game in OT/SO, the magic number falls to 1.

Habs have 29 RW and 37 ROW
Jackets have 27 RW 31 ROW
