Post-Game Talk: Hutson and Suzuki lead Habs in comeback win vs Flyers

[Nedved]

Habs had a great 2nd and 3rd period of hockey. They keep finding ways to win. I hope they can keep it up, but also get some more easy Ws down the stretch.

I hope they learn from the last 3 minutes of the game. they stopped skating and allowed the flyers back in the game. A lot of tape about what to do, when to do it, and try to execute it next game.

A win tomorrow would be huge for this team. Odd they probably have to fly tonight, try to get some sleep, and then play in the evening. I think tomorrow's game might be a tough one for them.

Knowing that you are wrong 80% of the times since 2009, we shouldn't trust your words really

Lol the irony!

Stop, you're killing me roflmao

I am no scout but if Hutson was this elite and they all knew it how did he fall to 62nd?

I didn’t think he’d be able to play effective defense in the NHL in spite of doing it in the NCAA and world juniors. We’ll see how he does in physical playoff series where opposing D are wearing down habs forwards and Hutson does well on goals for and against but doesn’t wear anybody down.

The Centre Bell vibes are crazy lately obviously but holy f*** does Renault makes it akward. Those "how special is this place" kind of questions need to stop. Let the fans support speak for itself.

Literally every single on ice interview following a win, is about greasing the Bell Centre. Part of the blame goes to interviewers with no imagination asking leading questions about the crowd and part of it is the format — not exactly conducive to more than recycled cliches.

It’s the verbal version of a Storm Surge.

Excellent 3rd period. Playing too fancy shmanzy in the first. My god.

 

[dinodebino]

Loved being there with my son. He had bought me the ticks for X-mas and since I don’t have the opportunity to see him often, I just loved it.

 

[Junohockeyfan]

Gallagher - Evans - Dvorak was a really good line tonight. They created chance after chance. Dvorak couldn't score on a free hooker.

I think Hughes addressed this on one of his recent interviews.

They had Hutson higher but the scouting team thought that he would be still around at 62. Obviously no one know he was this good but they had him much higher than 62.

Same as Fowler, they had him higher but had the scouting team thought that he would still be there in the 3rd round. Risky but it allowed give their 57th pick (2 round) to move up for Hage hoping Fowler would be there 3rd round.

Yeah that's just special.
My favorite game last year was when I got to take my daughter for not only her first game but a Habs win!

and those were extremely rare last year.

 

[CrAzYNiNe]

Just hitting his prime. Great waiver pick up.

Agreed. In spite of so many positive attributes, I remain indifferent about him. I think I am hard to please

 

[waitin425]

seriously this team man!!! f*** what a special Unit. Kappy goes to Europe for most of season comes back and Gally picks him for player of game. Showing him the way. Holy shit this is a special group of men.

Missed the 2nd and 3rd. Had umm...some business to handle, if you know what I'm talking about.

What did I miss?

It’s always the same story. That’s also how the Habs landed Caufield.

On D, teams love their giant sized, physical long stick Ds. Only 16 teams bothered to interview Hutson at the 2022 Combine.

Even a team like the Kraken, that had 4 picks in the 2nd round of the 2022 Draft chose not to take a shot at Hutson.

 

[Habs10Habs]

The resurgence of Dvorak, Gallagher and Anderson cannot be understated.

Dvo has really amped it up. Gally seems to have found the fountain of youth. While Andy is playing like a lot of us hoped he would when we traded for him. They're not quite a cup contender 2nd line. But they're playing solid hockey. I no longer curse and throw things at my walls, when they're on the ice.

Wrong drafts. Fowler was 2023. Hage was 2024. Remember, they traded their late 1st and 2nd for Newhook so unless they would've traded for an earlier pick, they got Fowler at the earliest time possible after the first round

Suzuki and Hutson carried the team. The Gally line played well even without Andy. So same old same old

 

[CharleyHorse]

All I know is my Dad thinks I'm a genius because I read the posts on here saying he was high upside and I wanted him with our late 1st!

yeah but also weren't there posts that said he was 5-foot nothing, couldn't skate backwards, and would get killed along the boards?

 

[salbutera]

They lost

 

[Canadienna]

I'm sure there were, but I know a lot of us wanted Hutson. Like I think a lot of fanbases did. High upside Boom/Bust pick is every fan's dream pick lol.

 

[NobleSix]

Holy f***ing shit were actually going to do it

 

[Guy Larose]

They lost and we're out of the playoffs.
