Post-Game Talk: HorriBad Habs lose 6-2 to Knights

[Lafleurs Guy]

Looks like I missed the right game.

 

[Habs]

KH needs to stop being a bad GM and take bad reclamation projects as if we were gonna fix them. Wake up. Dach had Kane all of his time in Chicago (past his prime yes, but still an incredible PP player) and Newhook had all the chances in the world to be a complimentary guy to three top 15 hockey players in the world and still couldn't do it. Acquire Matheson who has never been past the first round and has been killing this team sacrificing defense to maintain the illusion that he's a 50-60 pt offensive dynamo. Keep Slafkovsky on the team as an 18 year old while he's barely a midget AAA level skater (no seriously, his speed isn't terrible but his instincts and his skating technique is god awful).

We are clamoring for MSL's head while he's not even the cause for all of this stuff. The team KH built is not only bad but also filled with players that are content with being on a bad team if it boosts their point production by 10.

I've always said, be very wary of WHL players, they are risky and the stats are inflated. Very very very few have careers that translate, very few. On the D side, it seems fine, but forward.. tread with caution. I'm glad they never drafted Catton, and Iggy Jr isn't like his dad. If Demidov wasn't there I would have grabbed either or, but I would have crossed my fingers.

Dach was a putz in the W

Newhook - BCHL drafted , even worse

Hopefully this sparks a small trade, or something like Roy coming up for a stint. Laine replacing someone will be good for roster construction, as he takes a top6 spot, but Hughes needs to get a C

Or 2. Perhaps 3.

Like f***ing clockwork

Off by 33% but patting yourself on the back?

LMAO classic garbage

Thinking Emil Heineman deserves to stay and is underrated actually. Like what he brings. Great bottom sixer.

"great" has lost all its' meaning.

 

[MasterD]

Pezz sits every night while guys keep getting ice time and PP time. Why isn’t Dach sitting?

No accountability at all.

Bro are you f***ing serious? You're gonna bring Pezz as the savior to this f***ing garbage team?

We are bottom of the league because that's where we belong. We have not talend at forward, and goalies are trash. And the dman are poorly coached, at best.

f***ing Pezzetta ain't gonna change shit lmao

If you read between the lines during Marty’s press conference, he sounds like he’s exhausted all options. Again,great hockey mine but but he just can’t seem to put it all together. Jim Montgomery would look great behind the bench but my guess is Pittsburgh will try to pick him up. Oh well as Kent says …..View attachment 934878

Give me a f***ing break with MSL and Montgomery. Roster is trash, the end. We're in the middle of a rebuilt

I will never pay money to watch hockey live or on television.
The product is boring despite high level of skills.

No. The Habs are. Have been for 25+ years, mostly.

 

[MasterD]

That being said, if you look at the roster, CC is supposed to be an elite sniper, Suzuki an elite two way center, Slaf a power forward superstar 1OA in his D+3 and already signed to a 7m contract.

He's not. He's a 1st OA in a very bad draft. He's a 2nd line power forward who needs the right environment to succeed. And needs to put in tons of effort.

 

[Big Lurk]

"great" has lost all its' meaning.

He's hammering guys left and right, has a great shot, decent hands and is nice on the forecheck. He is a great 4th liner. He'd fit in on any team. So yeah, great at his position.

 

[RationalExpectations]

He's not. He's a 1st OA in a very bad draft. He's a 2nd line power forward who needs the right environment to succeed. And needs to put in tons of effort.

I don t know any 1OA whose stock has decreased as much as much as Slafs. The excuse of the bad draft does not work.He was sold as a unicorn already leading his country as a 16 year old. That should not be a second liner.
