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

[Vi Nc E x13x]

Why is our slot always open?

 

[MaxChart]

Suck more guys.

 

[Nashy]

Not huge Gorges fan, but this team misses him....especially his shot blocking.

 

[Fire Everyone]

Let's see if the fat ass coach is capable of making an in game adjustment.

He's not capable of making an adjustment from one season to the next, let alone from one period to the next.

 

[Bill McNeal]

The team's closer to a bottom feeder than a contender. Hope management realizes this.

Giving up 20 shots to Nashville in a period...

 

[overlords]

I don't like DD, but those blaming him are reaching. It was a bad penalty, but the habs have played like garbage the entire second.

Yep. A goal was coming against us whether we went 5v4 or stayed 5v5. Can't get that dominated and not give one up.

DD 12:26
Plek 11:13
Eller 9:19
Galchenyuk 11:04
Gallagher 12:28
MaxPac 12:16
Gionta 11:29

 

[Natey]

How is Bouillon our #3 defenseman after being press-boxed for two weeks.

 

[Wats]

If by miracle Habs win, will people ignore how awful they were?

 

[Teufelsdreck]

The lesser lights on the Habs showed why they are. I winced when I saw Diaz and Murray behind the net going for the same man. Then Desharnais took an unnecessary penalty and suddenly it's 3-2. I don't know why some fans are high on Murray. His physicality doesn't nearly make up for his poor skating and lack of smarts. If is the way the Habs play against scrubs like the Preds, I shudder to think what they'll be like the next time they play a strong team.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Putting a Norris winner with a 6-7th d-man like Bouillon, way to go MT!

Well, who do you play Cube with? Subban's the best defenseman and makes Cube less of a liability.

 

[Theosis]

DD 12:26
Plek 11:13
Eller 9:19
Galchenyuk 11:04
Gallagher 12:28
MaxPac 12:16
Gionta 11:29

Go Desharnais go!

 

[sampollock]

MB are you proud

 

[Fire Everyone]

If by miracle Habs win, will people ignore how awful they were?

Therrien will.

 

[LyricalLyricist]

DD 12:26
Plek 11:13
Eller 9:19
Galchenyuk 11:04
Gallagher 12:28
MaxPac 12:16
Gionta 11:29

Apart from Eller, looks relatively equal across the board. Unless you count by the shift.

 

[HatTricK09]

Typical team always let the other team come back after taking a lead

 

[Vi Nc E x13x]

Who do you want ahead of him lol Murray? Diaz?

 

[lou4gehrig]

Well, who do you play Cube with? Subban's the best defenseman and makes Cube less of a liability.

Say what? You don't play your best players to accommodate your weakest. This isn't communism. The best players are supposed to play more, because they're better at hockey.

 

[SB164]

I don't like DD, but those blaming him are reaching. It was a bad penalty, but the habs have played like garbage the entire second.

I'm not blaming DD, accidental penalties happen but I bet if PK takes that same penalty, TSN would gather four irrelevant dickweasels and question his maturity, his hockey IQ, his dedication to the team, and his status on Team Canada.

 

[Account Terminated]

Good Guy Habs.

Runs up the score.
Allows you to get back into the game so the loss doesn't look so bad on paper.

 

[Hope Of Glory]

If by miracle Habs win, will people ignore how awful they were?

I hope not. We're terrible. Collectively, terrible. I don't get how you can play this bad after being a somewhat decent-to-good team not so long ago.

 

[Habssince89]

Gotta get our cushion back. We need to be better at breaking out. Nashville is just chipping away. Hopefully we wake up. I'm sure they're not happy with the nap they took.

also, what is wrong with Briere's shot?

 

[Nedved]

too much character

 

[Nashy]

Say what? You don't play your best players to accommodate your weakest. This isn't communism. The best players are supposed to play more, because they're better at hockey.

In Montreal you do...you play a 6th defenceman on the PP....you use defenceman as forwards....you never double-shift....it's a crazy place, man.

 

[Natey]

DD 12:26
Plek 11:13
Eller 9:19
Galchenyuk 11:04
Gallagher 12:28
MaxPac 12:16
Gionta 11:29

Those are all pretty close. Who cares? None of them looked any good that period.

The real issue is;

Bouillon 13:19
Murray: 10:55
Diaz 8:56

Sure, Diaz has looked poor. But when the hell is going to get a real partner instead of the scrubs he's been playing with for weeks? How are we going to create any offense with Bouillon playing 20 minutes?? And Murray having more minutes than Diaz is a ****ing joke.
