Post-Game Talk: Montréal Canadiens got Halak’ed 4-1 loss

[dinodebino]

Oh. Must not be very positive.

 

[Zorro]

The tank is ****ING ON lads

 

[Treb]

Why

Because we are not in the 1940-1960s when coaches could even threaten the livelyhood of generational players.

The world has evolved.

 

[dinodebino]

30 years without a cup this year. 30 years. Shame on Habs.

Seriously. You were hoping for a cup this year?

 

[Zorro]

So what can Habs get for Armia now?

A less severe kick to the nuts

 

[NewDef]

Joel Armia is a tree, confirmed.

I am groot...lol

 

[The Real Timo]

Oh. Must not be very positive.

Yeah. Doesn’t sound good.

 

[Skip Bayless]

Because we are not in the 1940-1960s when coaches could even threaten the livelyhood of generational players.

The world has evolved.

No, but why did you feel the need to bring up Michel Therrien to the conversation?

It's irrelevant.

 

[Kennerback]

Suzuki no goal in 7. Habs no win in 6. Coincidence?

 

[sheed36]

Oh. Must not be very positive.

That's what I also thought when I saw the tweet.

 

[Schooner Guy]

Who got injured? Like most of Canada, I was watching the WJC final.

 

[SlafySZN]

Who got injured? Like most of Canada, I was watching the WJC final.

No one i think. They wanna do an update on Guhle and Gallagher mostly.

 

[SwiftyHab]

Who got injured? Like most of Canada, I was watching the WJC final.

Guhle 4-6 weeks

 

[bsl]

Seriously. You were hoping for a cup this year?

No. And I can't believe you asked me that.

 

[Treb]

No, but why did you feel the need to bring up Michel Therrien to the conversation?

It's irrelevant.

Because coaches throwing tantrums all the time don't accomplish shit now.

 

[Tyson]

Suzuki no goal in 7. Habs no win in 6. Coincidence?

Blame Slaf ....

 

[The Great Weal]

A 14 page GDT against an O6 team is crazy... WHC or no. Shows how bad this season has been.

I haven't watched a complete game in a while. 1st line has fallen off a cliff and Slaf isn't ready so there is nothing really worth watching with this team. When most of the team doesn't care, I'm not sure why I should care.

 

[dinodebino]

No. I can't believe you asked me that.

Oh! You were joking then. I missed it.

 

[Kennerback]

Blame Slaf ....

Get him off Suzuki’s line already.

 

[Skip Bayless]

Because coaches throwing tantrums all the time don't accomplish shit now.

As a manager, there's a huge margin between acting completely dejected and being a tyrant. But I guess you're not aware.

 

[Runner77]

Guhle 4-6 weeks

François Gagnon is saying it could be 4-6 weeks but there is also the possibility that his season may be over.

 

[hardcorehabs]

30 years without a cup this year. 30 years. Shame on Habs.

Best chance at not hitting 40 years is 1-2 more seasons of this. Get used to it bud

 

[SlafySZN]

Suzuki no goal in 7. Habs no win in 6. Coincidence?

Suzuki 3 points in 13 games.

 

[SwiftyHab]

François Gagnon is saying it could be 4-6 weeks but there is also the possibility that his season may be over.

Ugh…this sucks. Hope the kid is ok.

So we're at the stage past early season 'anything-can-happen' confidence, which whether we find it silly or not these athletes have to have that mentality every season. But now things are coming into reality, and you can tell the initial result of losing this bad this often is the team kind of lost and lacking energy, and that's because the young guys on the team are not having fun right now, and they are reacting accordingly. The vets stink right now for the most part, so together the team has flatlined. But do not despair!

We need to keep in mind that the team will likely get more bearable to watch as the vets finally get shipped and maybe some injuries occur and some new blood play their hearts out because they want to stay in the NHL. I doubt we get much better record wise, but I imagine the team will eventually find a way to stay in games longer like they did at the start of the year. The roster is bloated, the coach is being challenged to be the bad guy and not just the fun guy, and the GM has work to do. Should be interesting to see which of the young guys can pull it together and start to get hungry to win again. Good test of character....hope that word isn't banned haha
