Post-Game Talk: Habs lose to Vegas.

[expy]

Nah...I prefer Hoffman, there's still some tiny hope with him at least.

And much cheaper.

 

[26Mats]

Perfect night.

Kids played well (Suzuki, Caufield, Dach, Slaf, Guhle). And the loss helps us add another one to the future core.

 

[expy]

Hoffman is worse than everyone. Including Chris Wideman as a forward. Of course our resident moron with no redeeming purpose other than starting PGTs doesn't see this and bashes Drouin like he stole his lunch money.

Drouin is worse than Hoffman, in hockey and on the salary sheet.

Marty, I love what you've done so far and your way of thinking. But, get Monahan some f***** help! Time for promote Slaf with 91. I would have Andy too, but he's getting suspended a few games probably.

 

[Tyson]

When the Habs defeated Vegas in 6 games not long ago, the rat Mark Stone was held pointless...as he was again tonight

 

[Rapala]

maybe I'm suffering from PTSD from our player development for the past decade+, but I need to see him dominate juniors offensively before coming to the pros.

He gives me DLR vibes.

WHAT? DLR had zero offensive instinct and grew up playing during Team Sweden's attempt to win with defensive hockey. He could always be relied on to turn the wrong way in the Ozone. Like always. I don't see it.

Andy will likely get 1 game, but no more than that. Pietrangelo turned about a second before Andy hit him.

 

[Gustave]

Good loss, they did all they could. Only thing that matters is that they don’t fold and become desensitized to losing like the Sens.

 

[26Mats]

To be fair, I don't think Dvorak ever wanted to be in Montreal. He's a good piece to attach a mid size contract (Armia, Hoffman, etc) and a pick to, to clear up cap space

I think Dvo or Evan's can complement Monhan and Slaf well on a scoring 2nd line. Dvo just isn't a dynamic play driving center. But he's got good hands and a good shot. He can play with other offensive players, unlike most of our wingers.

9 goals in 11 games so far, it's happening

And much cheaper.

and worst case scenario we can even buy Hoffman out next summer and only carry a 1.1M cap hit for 2 years.

Yup Smith Petro and that grind line were the ones giving us problems.

How did Vegas not get a single 5 minute major when two guys took their gloves off and are swinging away at anderson?

And somehow the Habs still get a 4 on 3 followed by a 3 minute kill. I legit never seen that happen before.

They were both called for minors, so in the end the Habs ended up with a man up for the initial 2min being served.

They have a pupose and it isn't neccesarily to win games. It's great.

 

[Belial]

There's zero hope there. Hopeless Hoffman.
Hoffman without hope. A shining beacon of hopelessness salted with a bit of despair. He's done.

He's not done IMO.

He just has zero confidence in himself right now.

There's literally zero chemistry on all the lines apart from the first line...

They should have had a player tossed for that 3 v 1.

He gives up the puck in offensive zone every time. He absolutely kills offense. He's terrible, and we're buying him out next summer.

He's done don't kid yourself. He has absolutely no interest in bettering himself or it would have happened by now.

Ok let's not allow Drouin to take up spots on the roster and allow ourselves to debate who is worse - just send them both with Dadonov to Laval, or Siberia, wherever.

Best 4th line in the
League

 

[Runner77]

Therrien would have f***ed it up somehow. Thank God they didn't play under that dinosaur.

He's in his 30s now, and his shot is no longer the threat it used to be.

I think it's more likely that he's done than to believe he has a renaissance left in him.

 

[Tyson]

f*** I hated that POS

 

[Rapala]

Exactly the type of fourth line I adore. And like I posted earlier all for less than Gallagher.
