GDT: Montreal Canadiens vs Nashville Predators- 12/21/13 7:00pm EST CBC,RDS(HD),TSN 690

[sampollock]

oh yeaahhhh. That boardplay toughness.

Habs don't have any

 

[LyricalLyricist]

Fisher, Vermette, Stoll. One of those guys for sure

Hat trick aside, Vermette is another guy I like. I guess the former Ottawa guys

 

[Nashy]

2 D and the center behind the net vs. 2 preds leaving the slot open after losing puck battle. Kind of like the opposite of hockey 101.

Those are the kind of plays that should have people's ***** stapled to the bench...

 

[MD thaivuN]

Therrien should really stop using Murray. Barry Trotz been sending Stalberg whenever Murray's there.

 

[Hoople]

Douglas Murray gets beat to the puck.
Douglas Murray loses battle along the boards.
Puck in the back of the net.

Sigh...

You probably should blame Eller on that one. He should have picked up the better Bourque. Who was wide open

Great narrative to blame Murray though

 

[Winter Eclipse]

Whelp, Montreal back to its old self :/

 

[M.C.G. 31]

shots are 15-3 this period

 

[Fire Everyone]

Except that they've been happening all season (and much of last season as well, iirc). It's obviously a coaching issue.

 

[Hab-a-maniac]

Don't think the Nashville lineup has scored 3 goals in a game all year.

Whatever the case it's now 3-1 and this team can't generate a lot of shots while it's caught in its own zone. Need another goal or two to make me breathe easier. Habs are always content to use one good period to win a game and hang on for dear life in the other two

 

[M.C.G. 31]

Fisher, Vermette, Stoll. One of those guys for sure

I would absolutely love to have Vermette on this team. Always been a fan.

 

[GoodKiwi]

I believe murray just tied bouillon for team 'lead' in the negative +/-

In less games too, so Murray gets the tiebreaker.

 

[Natey]

I still don't see how Tinordi could be worse than Murray or Bouillon.

I wish Drewiske would hurry up and get healthy. He'll be better than both of them.

PS. Not blaming that goal on Murray. I think the center was a bit slow getting back to the slot. Not that it matters, the whole team is playing like crap again.

Great narrative to blame Murray though

Yeah, totally.

Murray losing the battle that resulted in the puck coming out for that shot was a non factor.
Neither was Diaz covering an already covered, despite poorly covered, player.

Great narrative to blame Eller though.

 

[HABS win CUPS*]

Seriously bring Tinordi back up I don't mind rookies making mistakes and learning

 

[BigM]

Where is Subban...missed 2 shifts.

 

[Fire Everyone]

Pateryn deserves the call up ahead of Tinordi.

 

[Andy]

Wow Rene Bourque has been awful tonight.

 

[Theosis]

My grandmother can shoot harder than that Briere.

 

[NobleSix]

One goal game is inevitable with this team. Cant wait for another nail biting 3rd period. Woooohooo.

 

[BigM]

he's back

 

[Theosis]

Booooo Leafs tied it.

 

[Natey]

Yeah, totally.

Murray losing the battle that resulted in the puck coming out for that shot was a non factor.

Great narrative to blame Eller though.

Eller was just as much to blame as Diaz and Murray. He went into the corner where there was a puck battle with two Habs there (Diaz had the other guy cut off). The guy in the slot was wide open and Eller was the third man in.

Eller isn't perfect, even if he's awesome.

He wouldn't be but his development might take a hit if he plays the same amount of ice time in average than these 2 for an extended period of time.

Murray took the guy with the puck. The slot was wide open and people still blame Murray for that??

 

[Natey]

Where is Subban...missed 2 shifts.

He's on the ice now. Equipment problem, probably?
