Habs play STUPID hockey.
It's not about "development", its just plain old STUPID hockey.
Matheson for all his offensive abilities is a turnover machine.
This team couldn't hit the ocean if the were standing on a barge with a pail full of pucks in the middle of it.
They can't get the puck out of the zone 10 feet from their own blue line and cough of the puck EVERY TIME when they 10 feet inside the other teams blue line.
The PP is STILL A JOKE.
The guy carrying the puck over the blue line with all the speed passes to someone standing still just over the blueline.
Then WHY even bother with the back pass!!!
What the efff do they look at on tape and practice!
Can't win faceoffs on the PP or PK.
Really starting to think this coaching staff is over their heads!

Only caught the last 10 minutes of the 3rd. Just listened to MSL's postgame and he said that the Habs deserved better in the game played in Vegas but said his team got what they deserved tonight and didn't sound pleased so I guess the Habs didn't play well tonight then.

We will continue to get injured if we keep giving up those lengthy Dzone disasters. I mentioned this early n the season it isn't hard to equate the two.
Yep you get running around in your own zone, getting tired and vulnerable to getting hurt. Agreed.

f***ing Habs didn't deserve better and that amateur coach needs to get his shit together.

The score is a lie, Primeau played super well, Vegas goalie not so much. It should have been like 10-2 for Vegas.

The team was just overwhelmed and done and they have a 5 games trip next...I fully expect the game against the Sharks to be a blow-out in the Sharks favor.

Well at least our Captain played another decent game. He could have easily have had a four point night.

We are playing at least half the teams on that scouting list in the next week or so. I think Vegas are playing Calgary and Edmonton next week and Dallas this week.

I think the metro teams are the only teams not playing either team soon.

How come nobody asking Marty about Habs mind blowing inability to get out of their end without turning pucks over. We aren't talking dominating anyone. We are talking about executing the most basic hockey plays.

Hadn't realized there were so many, Bergevin among them.


Well... Maybe Ylonen will get us a first after tonight. Dvorak will get a fifth for inability to score in an empty net. Anderson... I don't know.

Arber should probably seek a second opinion then. What's Dr. Recchi up to these days?
He’s been ousted by Dr. Slaf.

Didn’t watch the game noticed Vegas had 7 pp’s were the refs bad or Habs just taking stupid penalties again? Also why is it when we score 5 goals we still lose lol

Our D-core is pudrid, we dont have a single top 3 defenseman in that group, Guhle should become one, but he isnt there yet. Matheson is a beautiful skater, but not a great processor. Facing a big strong experimented line-up like Vegas just exposed our blueline big time. We allowed 6 goals and Primeau has been outstanding. The road trip is going to be rough...

I think the Habs have pretty legit chances to end up bottom 5 again this year, the loss of Dach has been brutal, now likely Jack-eye, ishh, I totally expect Habs to be in a position to sell by the end of december and Hughes likely to trade Monahan and Pearson, what will increase our chances at Celebrini or another great prospect.

Refs were bad. At least 4 imaginary penalties called on both sides. And I am sure they ignored many interference penalties.

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.

Would be a nice way to get your best natural goal scorer going, cutting him from important situations!

Especially since he has the most game winning goals this season.

Lordy were the Habs outmatched tonight. That was one of the worst games I have seen them play this year. The giveaways and intercepted passes were truly awful, almostmpainful to watch.

Play Ylonen on the PP or something.
