Post-Game Talk: Habs lose to the Rough Quacks 3-2

[HabsCode]

Reinbacher needs to hit his ceiling for real. We need a stabilizing presence at the blueline.

We need a better supporting cast of veterans

A glimpse of what we can be and a glaring solar flare of what we are. Get assets

Yep time to be sellers

For sure. We have no quality vets.

 

[Tyson]

I respect Gallagher but this can't continue for 2 more seasons.

For sure. We have no quality vets.

Two of the better veterans are UFA's...that's also a challenge

 

[habdynasty]

4 Hab defence men threw no-hitters tonight. Must have sunburn lol.

 

[hvac412]

almost zero effort again, still tired i guess

Cant execute any play and cant defend, i guess still not practicing

No coaching adjustments

Dach and Laine get benched after they cost you the game

Free falling fast and the effort level is back to sub normal.

Yep, that pretty much sums it up.

 

[Grate n Colorful Oz]

We're (+1 in win+/-) now closer to to the bottom 5 (Seattle 5th last is -4) than we are to a wild card spot (both are +7 for now).

Losing against Anaheim puts the writing on the wall imo. Bottom 4 is just a hair under Seattle (Buffalo at -5).

 

[eklund the clown]

Not surprised and as I get older I care less and less. Been watching this mediocrity since Tremblay and Houle. Over half the years I have watched this team they have been below average.

I feel for the young fans who never got to witness a Habs dynasty.
No 100 point player in 39 years, no 50 goal scorer in 35 years and no 40 goal scorer in 31 years.
This era of loyal Hab fans deserve better than this.

Remember those days well.Team was that good half of the games you didn't even have to watch knowing the final score would be 7-1 .Some of the games they didn't even have to put out 50% to win easily .Those days are long gone .

 

[JackZap]

Def need a legit second line center. Trade what you need to, overpay but need one bad .

 

[SwiftyHab]

Did it happen again?

 

[Rapala]

Must win game and lost to one of the worst teams in the league. I would say that's a wrap for the season.

We've lost 3 of 4 points to Anaheim who have some very nice young talent coming along.
Can we leave Matheson and whatever else they want for Jackson Lacombe?

 

[OldCraig71]

Why have they quit playing? Every team has a tough schedule and every team has injuries, it's not an excuse that can be used. Why have they stopped playing the tight defensive game that made them successful? It's hard to watch a team quit like this.

 

[Rapala]

Anaheim identified and beat on a slow Savard early and often.

 

[Walksss]

At least we'll be selling UFAs in one of the tightest sellers markets i can ever remember.

Savard, Armia, Dvorak might get a really decent return.

The kid is legit tho. For me it's more a matter of when than if.

They no longer believe.

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Full tank. Dvorak gone for whatever. Armia should be good enough for a 1st round. Evans...keep him. Trade Savard. Trade Newhook.

I'd trade Anderson, Gallgher but nobody wants them with that contract.

Apparently there would be a LOT of interest in Anderson.

 

[BergevinBurner]

If you exclude the Devils game where our 1st line actually produced, then since January 22nd the Slaf/Suzuki/Caufield line combined for 4 points total across 5 games...

You want a rookie with 0 NHL games to hit his ceiling?

 

[HabsCode]

Yeah?

It;s the beginning of the rebuild. If they don't make the playoffs next year it's time to get wiorried.

 

[waitin425]

Tank you very much

 

[vokiel]

Yeah?

Good stuff... Like my Lotto Max tickets.

I guess we'll be on a rebuild forever.
