Post-Game Talk: Habs lose to the Wild. Uneventful at best.

[Michelangelo]

Shit, if it was Monty who let 4 goals, this thread would be asking for his head.

When did Dobes allow 4 goals?

I’ll wait

Lol you're right, I'll edit

 

[RationalExpectations]

Pathetic.

 

[HuGort]

Nothing to note.

Team is definitely going to be sellers at the deadline.

The only flowers will be on the grave of their playoff hopes.

Embarrassing.

Discuss.

I didn't watch. Haven't watched last 3-4 games. I knew what was coming. The backbreaker loss against Leafs killed us

On paper this is still a bottom 5 team. I am not surprised they have fallen back from their high.

 

[Habano]

Meh, we're not a good team yet. I think when Demidov, Rein, Hage, Beck and Fowler are regulars on the team we will be in good shape. It's gonna take a few years though.

I thought X was our best D tonight. Yes he screwed up on the 2nd goal but he wouldn't have been in that position if wonder boy hadn't been caught up ice like he always is.

None of Matheson, Carrier, Struble (understandably) or Savard looked good. Wonder boy is what he is, could be electrifying some games but has been un-noticeable lately. That said, he's still a rookie and will go through growing pains. He will be a good one.

TOP 10 PICK IS BACK ON THE MENU BOYS

WTF is Newhook doing in NHL?

 

[Vapaatunnus]

I very like Patrik Laine but I think he should be healthy-scratch. The fact that he has problems with his skating and shot is understandable. But a few primitive passes, especially the one that led to Minnesota's third goal, deserve nothing less. Patrik played horribly, destroyed his line. One stands like Lot's wife on the PP, waiting for the pass instead of moving, even though he can see his opponent is watching out for him. Let MSL do something about him.
And if he does play, let him play under 10 minutes on the 4th line without PP. If he doesn't like it, there's a waiver.

He didn't even touch that puck, it was Wild player who took puck out, but Newhook should have gotten it in the middle of the own zone, that goal actually ended game.

Laine just came from bench:

Bring back our wonderful tank thread.

 

[LaineBOOM]

Team is hard to watch right now. Does MSL ever try something with his top lines? Like does he ever switch some players around mid-game to try to make something happen?
