Post-Game Talk: Habs lose to Vegas 6-5

[Monsieur Miz]

TOI :

Anderson 16:43
Ylönen 7:22

Big meritocracy fan btw.

 

[The Real Timo]

Adin Hill was giving us a free win but we lost anyway. GG!

Habs didn't let a defeat to escape from the jaws of victory. Good collective effort.

Some reading material for Gally tonight.

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

"on the PK"

the team was down a goal and trying to score. You can complain about Anderson being out there, but for better or worse, Matheson has been one of the team's best producers for the team. I know you pretty much do nothing but complain about everything the team does on this forum, but this is a really stupid thing to say.

Matheson si completely abysmal on the PK. I don't know what you are smoking on that one. Also his 5 foot pass on the blueline to farm his secondary assists doesnt make him a good playmaker this season. Once again blinded by the stats. Ill stop complaining when this org makes good decision let alone by the coach first.

 

[neopreneur]

Turns out the shooter tutor practice was very strategic practice, since Vegas' goalie plays exactly like one.

 

[Canadienna]

Feel bad for Gally. He'll wear that one.

Xhekaj being out just put a sour tone on the game. Hopefully it's not serious.

 

[Apoplectic Habs Fan]

3rd line dominated, ZERO adjustments

Anderson again wasting space. No accountability

MSL and company. Maybe we can bring out the foam targets next practice. Thats about the extent of whats being tought

 

[dinodebino]

Tons of scouts tonight. For Primeau or others?

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

Anderson 16:43
Ylönen 7:22

We will give ice time to people that deserves it. -MSL last season

 

[Hannibal]

Just hope Xhekaj won’t need another season ending shoulder surgery.

Please hockey gods!

 

[Stive Morgan]

Missed the game cause I'm at the hospital (don't worry I'm fine.... I think)

Ylönen needs a bigger role dammit. Get him and Guhle on the PP

 

[Non Player Canadiens]

the Habs are so easy to pressure on the power play. they waste precious seconds panic-rimming it (lol) along the boards, because they're never really in control

 

[HabSgt]

Costly loss, we may have lost Xhek for a while.

Golden Knights are the Cup champs, Habs...are not.

 

[Riddick412]

Nice to see progress in Primeau's game. I think you have to drop Allen now.

 

[Miller Time]

I'll take that any day in a season like this...

Impressed by how well the team competed against a much deeper and better roster... Knights are defending cup champs for a reason.

How much longer until Ylonen bumps Anderson to the 4th line?

Listen I know Gallagher is the villain here but if you scroll down ever so slightly and mosey on over into the tank thread, you'll find Gallagher is our hero.

 

[WatchfulElm]

Is there a scenario in which Karl Tremblay can win the Molson Cup for the month of November?

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Anderson may be the nicest guy in the world but at the moment he is shit. He should never have been on the ice in the last minute. Unless Habs are trying to tank MSL should be fired if he won't demote the guys that aren't contributing.

 

[Toene]

Anderson and Slaf dragging the group down. Ylonen should get a look with Suzuki, him and Newhook would be a nice line imo

 

[morhilane]

Why didn't Ylonen not see any ice during the 6v5? He had the hot hands tonight.

Also, Caufield and Anderson have dead hands, remove their asses from important segment when you need a goal at this point. They can't even handle the puck and make passes. They just waste ice.

And stop playing Gallagher in the last 5 minutes of a game, unless then plan is to always finish with a PK.

the Habs are so easy to pressure on the power play. they waste precious seconds panic-rimming it (lol) along the boards, because they're never really in control

That's because most of them can't handle the puck or make actual passes. And Matheson is awfully slow at making decisions which means he always take the bad one since everything he does is super telegraphed.

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

Tons of scouts tonight. For Primeau or others?

They were testing the new quality hotdogs that Molson added

 

[Rapala]

The kids tried hard but were no match for this mature winning team. To be expected. And there will be many games like this.

Unfortunate Arber got injured though.

Yeah they had the puck for 3/4 of the game. It killed us for 4 goals against in the second with the short change and also leads to injury Xhekaj was stuck for 2:48 when he got Barbashoved. We have very few players who can play at Vegas' level.

Tons of scouts tonight. For Primeau or others?

it aint for Anderson or Gally that's for sure

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Shit ending thanks to Gallagher's dumbass 4 minute penalty a fun game overall though.

Don't understand why Anderson keeps getting PP time & is out in late game situations. He has no hands. He spent like 20 of our 45 seconds just fumbling around with the puck. Ylonen was flying again and deserved to be out there.

Need to give guys who are going ice time, and guys who are not bench time. MSL should have switched Ylonen & Anderson, or even get Newhook out there. Really frustrating watching Anderson right now.

Primeau played great. No complaints about him. Hill sucked for Vegas, which was the only reason it was close.

 

[Apoplectic Habs Fan]

So one guy scores two gets 7 minutes, another plays almost 17 with zero shots

Cant make this shit up
