Is he earning his salary? Seems to be that he is a bit removed from things.
So... on a night like tonight, do you normally call up you family members and gloat?
60% HabsHow was the Sens to Habs fan ratio tonight?

Still don't get why Karlsson exposed himself like that. No other defenseman airs out their own weaknesses.
In other instances in this game, I saw a player with some pretty nifty stickhandling. I looked at the number and it was #18.
I never said Ceci would be replacing Jaros though, but good job on the deduction. In case you didn't notice... short on forwards, going 11-7, something I might not want to see every game. So I'll switch it to make you feel better :
Add Tkachuk, Formenton, Pageau, Ceci
Remove Carey, Pyatt/Paajarvi, Jaros, Harpur/Boro
I was talking about a healthy lineup if we had that luxury. I would be tempted to have Jaros instead of Wideman though.
Tkachuk-Tierney-Stone
Boedker-Duchene-Ryan
Formenton-Pageau-Dzingel
Paajarvi-Smith-White
McCormick/Pyatt
Chabot-DeMelo
Lajoie-Ceci
Harpur-Jaros
Boroweicki-Wideman
12:51 of TOI and a 28% CF%. Phenomenal I tell you!
1st goal : pp goal (on a back-to-back PP no less). Boro screens his goalie, Harpur is late to take care of Gallagher who screens Andy as well. Hard to blame Andy but as a goalie, you never want to give a goal that goes through you.
2nd goal : nice tic-tac-toe play from the Habs, they had all the momentum after their PPs and goal. I think I saw people blaming Ryan there who is coming down the right wing to cover the LW because both the Center and LWer were not doing it. Shows you the discrepancy in hockey understanding from fan to fan.
3rd goal : Chabot and Duchene initially lost their battles creating a opening for the Habs. Wideman was slow to react and just too soft at defending, unsure what to do. Boedker can't tie his man (Byron) and very poor structure from Andy as well, bad goal. A bit of blame for everyone.
That's how hockey works. Score effects.
Harpur had 4 giveawaysTierney has been great, Demelo as well. Credit the pro scouting staff for adding these two.
Harpur looks like he is just playing hockey, he looked big and quick last night. He got pinned down a couple of times, but he didn't play apprehensive like he did last year, loved his open handed slap to face on Gallagher when Montreal had the early lead, he wasn't dejected or feeling guilty, he just wanted to keep fighting, told me he and the entire team would be back, and they came back. Small thing, but shows a lot about the teams confidence and battle intensity, loved it.

idk....we were down 2 early and down 2 after 1. we outplayed them for 50 minutes. I get score effects but I'm not sure this game was a great example of it
I think he’s a bust actually. Not worth the time. Too much uncertainty hesitation and mistakes. Better players will be available.I know Harpur has some warts on his game right now but I firmly believe that they just need to let him play through this and get his confidence back. He looks to me like he is improving and I think he's going to be fine.
That’s exactly how score effects work.
They had a two goal lead in 24 seconds.
We spent most of the game trying to tie it up and then win.

He is a way better hockey player tha Sean Avery. Id take him on my team anyday.While watching that game, I initially wanted someone to feed Gallagher his own teeth. Then it dawned on me that it would be better if they simply ignore him. He's like that kid acting out at Walmart trying to get attention. His antics will escalate until he's the next Sean Avery.

Not from my vantage point. More like 60 percent Sens vs 40 percent habs.60% Habs
40% sens
That’s it? Everytime the puck was on his stick it was an adventure. I noticed him less towards the very end of the game but before that...wwwwheewHarpur had 4 giveaways
My gf works at club bell said the same.Not from my vantage point. More like 60 percent Sens vs 40 percent habs.
