Post-Game Talk: Habs remain winless in November

[Habby4Life]

It's a miracle the rebuild is this far along with the effing mess MB left. As i said in the previous post the only question is why do they not appear to be giving 100%.

Far along, we see things differently.

Slafkovsky is looking like poop as well. I know it was a weak as hell draft that year, but I am expecting more from this guy even at his age. Can't hold onto his stick,, looks and plays like a low iq individual and wouldn't hit the broad side of a barn. The habs drafting is pure garbage but it would really set this team back if Slafkovsky turns out to be Bustkovsky

Some comments should stay unwritten sometimes.

Calling a kid ‘’low IQ’’ and a supposed bust because of 11 games at the start of a season where he has 8 points.

I wonder if Newhook will have more games like tonight or did he reach his quota of good games. In fairness he was dynamite tonight. Habs tend to have random players wake up at random periods of time but never as a whole team.

 

[Redux91]

Yeah and this one isn’t proper.

That's because it's not finished yet Einstein.

 

[gusfring]

Worst team in the East. This team is regressing.

 

[OneSharpMarble]

I just saw that 2nd Newhook goal, that was dirty.

 

[Guy Larose]

The Hughes Masterclass posts are so funny these days

He’s good at signing contracts but he is pretty trash at everything else.


It’s really just 3 guys in a constant circle jerk with each other

What's trash is this post. Jesus Christ give it time.

People has no patience.

Some say they are patient or that they understand the situation the habs are in but then act like drama queens. Nothing will change the fact that Demidov isn’t here yet, Hage neither and Slaf/Hutson are only 20, you can’t skip those years and go faster.

Put the game on while taking care of the catch of the day and what a surprise, Montreal gave them a game. A very good effort for a change and it showed what they are capable of, just need to bring that every game and learn to play better defense. A lot of the players looked good, some very good, what were they waiting for.

 

[Habssince89]

I get that. The majority of teams are in the USA. So have the American teams play each other at stupid times... how can you schedule a Canadian team when we have to work? That's not right.

Thankful that I moved to beautiful BC. Blew my mind when I found out Remembrance day was a stat

Another 10 years or so? Or 30? How much time...

 

[Ieatsht4brkfst]

5/18 losses, 13 more to go to tie the record

They've been on the job 2 years or so LMFAO. "I want a rebuild but I can't wait"

I love how our late 1st round pick from last year has suddenly turned into a core piece

There is good news and bad news,that is the bad news. The good news is Montreal is leading in attendance and Molson is loving it.

 

[Runner77]

Gallagher looks like the Gally of old. I thought he'd be the broken animatronics figure forever, so it's a nice surprise.

Time to give him his due:

 

[Runner77]

What is Matheson tonight... -3? Another amazing trade by Hughes.

The trade was a win for Hughes, considering what he gave up to get him.

Question is, if Matheson is still at peak value based on last season, what kind of window does Hughes have if he wishes to max out on a return for him?

 

[Nedved]

these losses are getting tough. team is tough to watch. the season looks like it's almost over, and it's almost time to cheer for a bottom 3 pick.

 

[Runner77]

only from a handful, most argue that he’s legit stud who just plays a little too many minutes. My issue with him is constant bumbles and mistakes which outweigh his sexy silky smooth skating imo.

I wonder how much better Matheson might be if his minutes were more closely managed. He’s too erratic and mistake-prone at his current workload.

 

[Runner77]

They were able to produce last year...why are they all choking?

We’re still in the middle of a rebuild but ideally, you’d like to see signs of progress over last season. I’m not sure what factors are the most prevalent — maybe the loss of Monahan plus Marty losing part of the room?

Someone mentioned in the GDT how the Habs have always had trouble landing first line centers. Ideally, you’d want a first line strong enough to push Suzuki, Caufield and Slaf to the 2nd line. How realistic would that be?

 

[Habssince89]

Devils are clearly superior, and given that not that bad a night tbh. We can easily cite games this year that were way worse. We had our top line be silent but still scored 3 goals and were competitive in the game. In hindsight a pretty much perfect tank game.

 

[The Last Red]

We have the same record as San Jose. Wow.

All 3 on a second line? Totally unrealistic.

1 point away from dead last, but posts with the dreaded T word are still being censored.

I think the problem is the paradox where people COMPLAIN about the team when its a tank year. It makes no sense, and is often bad faith.

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

How many times has Matheson lost us games mishandling the puck at the blue line in the last 5 minutes of games? 25? That stat must exist somewhere?

"Yes"
