Pre-Game Talk: Habs vs Blues

[habbubba]

Never a shortage of laughter coming here as you have some scoff and ridicule others for their thoughts and opinions all the while presenting their own postulation as fact in a mocking manner, text book douche-baggery.

The notion that Martin St Louis, who won a Stanley Cup with the Lightning, and went on many lengthy playoff runs.. would have no appreciation for toughness, grit, physicality.. is just one of the silliest, unfounded rumors that there is out there.

He got soft... In the head?

 

[Habssince89]

Any line that needs the fixing can use Yoel. Yoel will now fix the 4th line. No problem.


All positions. Look at other heavy teams. Somehow they found those kind of players... so it's possible.

but who do you like? What player is available? I'm honestly asking

I honestly don't know. I know the type of players I want to see. Hughes gets paid 5M to figure out how to bring them in.

 

[Grate n Colorful Oz]

I just read a rumor albeit a speculative one that MSL might resign and that Hughes is making calls around the league to possibly make a trade to help the roster. This was something from the French media and I am not sure how credible the journalist is.

It's Jean-Charles Lajoie, he's a f***ing joke and he's just a TV talkinghead, not a journalist by any means.

 

[Grate n Colorful Oz]

I know, but the management are the ones that spewed out the nonsense how we will be 'competing for a playoff spot' or 'in the mix' when the fans knew this was total bullshit.

If you could all see it was bullshit, why all the drama then? It was non sense, but the over the top dramatic overreactions are just as nonsensical.

 

[OldCraig71]

I hope they benefit from the few days they had to practice some minimal defense. Calendar was game heavy until this week.

Thats a good point, it will be interesting to see if there is any difference in play. They were unprepared to start the regular season as well.

Because its a message board and its for venting and applauding?

 

[The Real Timo]

It's Jean-Charles Lajoie, he's a f***ing joke and he's just a TV talkinghead, not a journalist by any means.

I read on both Le JOurnal and RDS that Hughes is making calls about a D. Didn't read about MSL resigning. Based on that he "doesn't listen to his critics" high stand, I doubt it's part of his plan. He thinks he's doing well.

 

[Habs]

Well they could have said Habs will be in the mix if they remain relatively healthy. They expected that to be understood.

Even with a healthy laine and guhle we can always account for our core to be depleted at some point the mast 5 years ? It just has to be a factor for some reason

I'm glad to see you are getting the hang of it.

This has to be up there on the list of worst 2nd line ever

Congratulations to Jake Evans on the 2nd line promotion. He’s been superb this season. He’s been so good that he's making Anderson and Gallagher look somewhat decent.

He’s really stepped up his game early this season. Well deserved.

Habs are so next gen running 3 4th lines.

Pezetta 1 game 0 goal Dvorak 7 games 0 goal Heineman 6 games 2 goals
Armia 7 games 0 goal Newhook 7 games 1 goal Kapanen 6 games 0 goal
Anderson 7 games 1 goal Evans 7 games 0 goal Gallagher 7 games 2 goals

6 goals and 2 of them are coming from a guy that plays 10min a game.

Fun fact Slaf-Suzuki-Caufield scored 9 goals together
rest of the entire team has 9 goals combined

St-Louis better be ready , this 1 aint gonna be a walk in the park

If the Habs lose both games in similar fashion as they did against Pittsburgh and NYR it will be an interesting time in Montreal to say the least.

I'm glad Marty's investing in Kirby Dach. Yes, he's had a crap start, but we have a lot more to gain by giving him time/opportunity to find his game.

Maybe they should plan a longer trip to Philadelphia.

Man.... the mood already sucks. How much worse can it get?

It'll be more entertaining if the Habs win both games. The massive swing in opinion will displace gravity.
