Agreed. He's made some good moves. If he's not injured, I would have started Price tonight though.

So unhappy about Budja being in net instead of Price. Nothing against Budja but this is against Boston, when they are HOT. 
If I play the roulette and bet my life savings on number 3 three times in a row and end up winning three times, that does neither make it a good decision nor does it mean I will get away with it a fourth time.
So if we play Boston in the playoffs are we going to keep playing Budaj? For ****s sakes, we play Buffalo next. Stick Price in against our rivals and Budaj against the rebuilding team.

Therrien is either a Pejorative Slured moron or a ****ing genius. Hopefully he comes out as a genius tonight.
Please don't get murdered Habs.
You know he's thinking of securing the win tomorrow.
I kinda agree. Put Buds in and force him to make up for his dismal performance against the B's last week and stack your odds against Buffalo. We'll see. When I think coach T does something right, it usually comes out as a bad decision.
The only reason why he's starting Budaj instead of Price is that he really wants the win against Buffalo instead of Boston.
and despite all this Habs sit third in the division. And even Price himself admitted to being a work in progress, so maybe they know a little more than we do, just a thought.

Murray and Subban?! Feel bad for the guy. Now instead of seeing Frank the Tank for 25 minutes we're going to see Doug the Slug for 25.
Such baffling personnel decisions.
Both of those guys should be eating hot dogs in the pressbox and Tinordi and NateB should be in. They are clearly better than those two plugs.

In the end it really is just your opinion that the decision is wrong, and MT believes it's the right decision. The difference? You have absolutely nothing to lose if your decision is wrong

Price still doesn't look back to form yet after his injury but you'd think he'd be playing tonight if he was healthy. Anyway lets hope Budaj comes up big and ends that Bruins winning steak tonight.
The other difference is that the evidence points to Therrien making bad decisions.
Therrien would hardly be the first "hockey man" to make a bad decision, and frankly, Therrien's not on his first bad decision either.
Whenever people blame the roster and say Therrien is doing all he can they need only look at the starting lineup for this game. We're playing one of the best defensemen in the world alongside a guy who shouldn't be in this league. We're sitting a guy in Weaver who has been plus possession playing 20 tough minutes a night on a crappy team in favour of Frankie freaking Bouillion.
there would also be ample evidence that suggests he has made correct decisions as well, seeing as they are third in their division. And he may be a 'hockey man' but it would be naive to think that the coaching staff does not look at stats (both conventional and advanced). But he also has access to something that we do not, the feel of the room. While this is qualitative it can't be ignored.
