Post-Game Talk: Jake "All-in" for an NFL-type score!

[LaP]

No one is acquiring Allen because he clearly isn't a solution for anyone.

Our best hope to trade him is this summer by accepting a bad contract in return.

Like

Allen
For
1y / 5+ millions contract + 3rd round pick

Something like that. A little bit like the Pearson trade but the contract in return will have to be higher since Allen's contract is higher than DeSmith.

3 players injured in 2 games, what else is new?

Heineman injured in Laval also

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Yet Hughes gave Allen the extension with big raise

It wasn't a big raise and Habs had no other goaltender then.

Sir this is a hockey site

Sir this is Habs hockey

Just watched the "highlights". Allen is the biggest dog shit I've ever seen.
Unfortunately, SN didn't have replays of Harris or Guhle injuries.

Gonna keep looking.

Is Guhle's injury serious?

Nvm... found it. Can't believe idiot MSL didn't dress Xhekaj. Habs are forever pushovers with this kind of BS mindset.

Looked like nothing. But with our luck, he will be gone for a long time.

Hughes has done a lot of good things so far, this three goalie system is his worst decision so far.

I'm not sue it's that bad,

Playing Monteambeault more this season would be bad imo. He's probably not ready for 50+ games yet and he would win meaningless games. Primeau will play around 15 NHL games this year. He's 24 don't think it's the end of the world. Allen is good for the tank he's the main reason why we are so low in the standings honestly. But Allen has to go before next season that's for sure.

Winning should never be meaningless.

Several here opposed that deal at the time. Hughes’s first mistake extension and he wasn’t even crying when he did it, which makes it worse.

TBF, Monty was not on the radar at that time.

 

[The Real Timo]

Yoel delivers most devastating hits.

 

[Tyson]

If you wanted to play Harris today why not dress 7 D? MSL has done this in the past.

What makes you think Monty can't handle playing 50 games? He looked ok last season playing 40.

 

[The Real Timo]

I wonder if Xhekaj will go after Armia the next game... and then going to work down the list.

 

[CheldishGamibno]

Looked like nothing. But with our luck, he will be gone for a long time.

Same as when a Chicago player sneezed on Dach and he got ACL and MCL injury. Cool!

 

[sampollock]

Team is soft and has no scoring
Will be a very long rest of the year
KH has lots of work to do

 

[The Real Timo]

Well that sucks. Hope it isn't serious. Hurt his shoulder maybe?

I wonder if it's a rib... looked like he was holding there... who knows. Sigh.

Winning should never be meaningless.

I agree. Thought they were building the winning kulture.

It was bad deal but to be fair KH probably saw Allen and Primeau sharing the work which made Allen's contract more justifiable yet still bad.

I am starting to wonder if Hughes is the right man. It's been 3 years now.

 

[1909]

Those two weekend's losses are the start of a long run down in the standings. Celibrini, here we come !!!

 

[LesHabitants]

With Gulhe and Harris likely out for the remainder of the season... we'll call up Mailloux too early and destroy his development. 10 more years of mediocrity on the way. Good times.

 

[Habs13]

Glad I missed this game. Because of the score but mostly because Xhekaj was scratched again. The f*** are you doing coach? This is a big, physical western conference team, you dimwit! And what happens? Two injuries. Moronic.

I was a supporter of MSL but I'm quickly losing faith in his strange choices and hatred of physical hockey.

Same as when a Chicago player sneezed on Dach and he got ACL and MCL injury. Cool!

Hard to say. He did lots of goods so far. He had to clean up Bergevin's mistakes, and there is still lots to clean up. Injuries are the biggest factor to why this team stalled this season. And I am still not convinced that MSL was the type of (rookie) headcoach to hire to do the job.

Huge cleanup to revamp the two bottom lines but huge obstacles with Armia, Gally, Anderson, Dvorak, Evans still under contracts for a good while.

Harris is day to day.

Matheson
Savard
Struble
Kovacevic
Xhekaj
Harris

They won't call anybody up long term. Even if Guhle is out long term, they don't need to at the moment.

And once Gallagher comes back Thursday, they will send Roy back down.

 

[Habs13]

When the shoulder dislocates the arm drops so could well be the shoulder again too.

 

[Habssince89]

brutal!
