Drouin had a fair last game and had an amazing pass on Caufield's goal.

Dadonhoffman is another story.
I'm not a Drouin hater, far from it, but to be honest he wasn't doing well up until that great pass. Even Marc Denis mentioned it in the morning, that passed just masked most of his play as everyone will remember that play.
I hope he gains momentum and plays like this the rest of the way, the talent is there!

I know the prize for sucking is possibly a franchise player but do some of you watch hoping that the Habs lose?
I never want them to lose...just no way.

Nah, I always cheer for wins when I'm watching. The rebuild just make the losses feel good once the final whistle blows.

Also can't really be mad when they win because of Suzuki, Caufield and Guhle. Would be more frustrating if the wins were coming from Hoffman and Dadonov while the kids sucked.

If I'm only looking at the boxscore and not the game itself, it's easier to cheer for the tank.

We’re 4 games in. The worst team is still us imo. Although I think our young dmen are better than many expected. We have a ton of deadwood. We will be fighting for the bottom. 4 games doesn’t change that.
SJS 0-5…

IMO Habs will not be a bottom-5 team unless there are serious injury issues on the horizon nearing last seasons NHL all time record for man games lost

mannnn....we aren' even in that tournament anymore. Top 5 if we are lucky 😅
Sadly I think this is so.

At least 3 teams worse than us. Arizona Chicago and San Jose.

Maybe we get #4 that would still be amazing

I just try to find an angle of interest, focus on certain players with upside and enjoy well executed plays. It helps me get through a rebuilding season and not be too concerned with individual game outcomes, knowing that the people in charge don’t want to lose either and that there is a plan for better days ahead.

Pitlick doesn’t deserve to sit
He absolutely does. He was one of our worst players in the first couple of games, and Hoffman dressed for those as well, so that's saying something.

He played well at the end of last year but has not looked good at all this year so far. Hopefully he comes back and turns it around.

I agree...

They are showing right now, despite being down their top 2 dmen, that they are closer to a middle of a pack team than a bottom 5 one.

I hope Hoffman gets a hat trick so I don't have to read 100 messages/per day about how much he sucks for a couple of weeks. :laugh:

This is a must lose.

Hopefully Montanbo doesnt play good, what the hell is the tank commander doing? Hes driving backwards.
But Allen already had the baby? Isn't the highest paid goalie back of course tonight? Its his Job.

Talent without effort and desire amounts to what we have in Drouin...
