Post-Game Talk: Mon Lars leads Pens past the Habs 6-3

[expy]

Defense was Barren outside of Guhle and Hutson.

Guhle, Slaf, and Heineman with the goals.

Everyone else was bad.

Eh, game was fun. Team didn't give up

 

[SwiftyHab]

Best thing we got out of this game

 

[Zilo44]

Marty. It’s the mix or Matheson. Make a choice

 

[Hannibal]

Savard worst player on the ice for both teams. My god atrocious.

 

[le_sean]

Man the f*** up Marty and staple Matheson to the bench with the man advantage. And why is he up high on the point 6v5 with Hutson on the side to take one timers? Stupid coaching

[Hacketts]

Get Heineman on the 2nd line.

 

[Kennerback]

Team didn’t give up. I was entertained.

 

[Stive Morgan]

Honestly a pretty enjoyable game despite the loss. That 2nd period may have been our best of the season so far.

Not to dump on Dach who's coming back from a long injury but the bar was set high for him to replace Sean Monahan.

Monahan was providing secondary scoring all by himself playing with scrub during his whole tenure with us.

I'm sure Kirby will come along fine but he will have to figure out a way to produce with lesser quality teammates.

We played a good game but we did mistakes. There gonna be lot of games like that this year. Be patient it's the 2nd youngest team in the league.

We're more than 1 piece away from being in the mix, and Matheson isn't the worst defenseman by far.

 

[Canadienna]

We needed more from Monty
Dach needs to show some finesse in execution though I like his effort
Matheson has the same problems as last year

Bummer. Back to .500 hockey.

 

[Team_Spirit]

Crappy 1st period sank the tank

Lots of ice time for the kids all is good.

 

[The Great Weal]

Can't really fault Monty even if he wasn't great. Seems like they had a great scoring chance every 3 minutes. 2nd line doesn't work and the pairings besides Hutson-Guhle were horrible.

He's coming back after missing an entire year can we give him 20 games to get back in game shape?

I know the season is young but I just don’t see “it” with this core.

Suzuki is too slow and not engaged enough on a regular basis. We are extremely thin up front on talent coupled with a lack of identity and no physical presence on any line.

Extremely thin on the right side of our defence (with no help in our pipeline) and our goaltending is extremely inconsistent. Not to mention I have seen no noticeable improvement in our D zone coverage in the last 3 years. We are as clueless in our own zone as ever have been, which is troubling to say the least.

This rebuild is at least 2-3 years away.

 

[iamtalbot]

things seemed turned around when we went up 3-2.... .then.... then it was time to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory

 

[Habs7631]

What does Newhook even do

 

[Ezpz]

Matheson and savard making difficult choices easy. No way either is extended. Missing Laine is obvious on the empty net. With him and Cole we can get pucks on net but now we have five passers out there with Cole and it's pretty obvious who to cover.

 

[Rozz]

well, that sucks.. but the game had some fun moments ... this year is going to be full of good and bad games... such is the way of transitional years... but hey, I got my Slafsquatch goal!

Yeah he needs more time but it doesn’t look good right now. He provides 0 offence, Newhook is the only one with life on that line. Dach looks like a defensive specialist which is not what we want.

Savard worst player on the ice for both teams. My god atrocious.

Not the worst. Sorry. There’s an elephant in the room.
