GDT: Montreal Canadiens @ Boston Bruins, May 1st (Thursday) 19:30, CBC RDS NBCSN

[Habaneros]

good first road period by Habs....

 

[FrankMTL]

I think our 1st line spent all their time in the D zone so far.

Crazy..I don't think I heard Pacioretty's name once in that period..

 

[Treb]

Why the **** Brière is getting benched?

Because Vanek is sucking so he needs to play more

 

[sukimono]

So you have an agenda against someone who is saying what DD looks like tonight? The whole 1st line is putrid tonight

What kinda powder are you using

 

[Shaby23]

Crazy..I don't think I heard Pacioretty's name once in that period..

DD is the only one trying.

 

[Wats]

Prust is so bad. I'd put Moen in his place and put Bournival in the lineup.

 

[ThaDevilGirl]

Prust is so bad. I'd put Moen in his place and put Bournival in the lineup.

I'd do the same.

 

[Kimota]

Well not DD... he worked hard, I don't understand why you say he plays "scared" or something...

He may work hard but he's pushed around like an infant.

 

[Team_Spirit]

Price in gandalf mode

 

[Natey]

DD playing scared

lol what?

 

[sukimono]

Not a chance we win this if we keep playing like this, that was brutal

 

[zx81]

It was ugly but they're leading. They will have to play better though.

 

[jpchabby]

Prust is so bad. I'd put Moen in his place and put Bournival in the lineup.

Yeah Prust caused a lot of turnovers, and in fact so did he around the end of the 1st series too... Not a good stretch of games for him

 

[Summer Rose]

Price in gandalf mode

Ye who seek to cross the goal line of death,
Must answer me these questions three,
'Ere the other side he see.

 

[Theosis]

1st line is scaring me... Aren't really generating anything and seem to give up the best chances for the Bruins...

 

[nyhabsfan]

It's a mistake to play Moen over Bournival but not a huge deal.

Bournival's speed was needed in that period.... moen is not physical enough to negate his lack of foot speed

 

[TheRooster]

Was a decent period, but they need to tighten up defensively. Too many Bruins players left wide open and not enough pressure. Once they do that, it'll translate to quicker breakouts and more scoring chances.

Price is god-like as usual.

 

[Kimota]

Yeah Prust caused a lot of turnovers, and in fact so did he around the end of the 1st series too... Not a good stretch of games for him

I thought that was his arms and shoulders that was crumbling but he can't even skate.

 

[McGuires Corndog]

Pacioretty-Vanek invisible!

Subban in beast mode as usual. If we can get our top line rolling we have a shot at this series.

 

[Cole Caulifield]

So you have an agenda against someone who is saying what DD looks like tonight? The whole 1st line is putrid tonight

My problem with your comment is that

DD is not the best player on his line in terms of skill and impact. Vanek and Patch are the superior players. Despite that... DD has been the best on his line by far. Why specifically target the lesser player playing better than the better players? Just reek of someone with an agenda.

 

[Kenny Powders]

DD is trying dont get me wrong, he's just beeing targetted right now since h'es the passer, Vanek and Pacioretty are playing way too high for him to do something, which means he has to go thru traffic to get out of the zone, which led to him doing chip passes most of the time. I'm not saying he's terrible. Vanek is invisible and the qhole line needs to wake up

 

[overlords]

Bournival's speed was needed in that period.... moen is not physical enough to negate his lack of foot speed

Because that's how hockey works.

 

[Natey]

He may work hard but he's pushed around like an infant.

Who cares if he gets pushed around of he comes out with the puck

 

[Habaneros]

Not a chance we win this if we keep playing like this, that was brutal

what is with all the negativity ?????


WERE ON THE ROAD ,AFTER a long lay off.......Habs did well in period 1 .

Boring Sean Monahan ‏@boringmonahan 2m
It's the 1st of May, Montreal scored the 1st goal and it's the end of the 1st period. What a crazy day so far.
