Where are those sleek, quick Weber passes we've be told about ?

I would say give him more than 4 periods with a whole new team and lifestyle change to ask that question, but that's just me.

 

[lou4gehrig]

This is now 4 periods that Galchenyuk has looked awful.

Chucky is doing what's asked of him. He's need a new coach more than any other player. MT does not know how to maximize him at all.

 

[Canadienna]

Don Cherry looks even more senile.

 

[Non Player Canadiens]

I like this Sans Filet intermission on tvasport

Bergy has the same accent as my grandma... those r's... good times

 

[Lebowski]

We've seen this PP for a few years now. Get the puck to the Dman with the big shot. That's our PP.

The PP set-up we've seen in the 1st period is very different from what we've seen over the past three years, and a lot more efficient.

Yes, the main focus is still the big point shot. Only now, the big point shot is put in a position to do some real damage.

 

[NobleSix]

None of them have done anything. Lol

The whole team hasn't really done anything.

 

[Bryson]

Amazing they changed half the players and they still look exactly the same as last year. Hmmm...

Sleek, quick Weber = Individualiste.

Slow, safe Weber = Team player.

I'm happy to criticize Weber but I did kind of like that set-up to Weber on the side. I think if they keep it up, it will work eventually.

that being said, Radulov should be 1st wave PP.

 

[LaP]

Chucky needs to wake up.

He still has 18 games. The standard has been made 2-3 years ago.

 

[SirClintonPortis]

Bergevin build a defense in his image: slow, physical, truculence, character, unskilled. Exactly the opposite of where the NHL has been heading for over 10+ years.

Habs got absolutely mangandled that period. I thought Weber was supposed to be intimidating!?

We should have kept Scott and Brown if we wanted intimidating. Add Frazer Mclaren, Colton Orr and Randy Carlyle with Pronger as an assistant coach. Now there's truculence. Seriously, he can't even figure out how to make a goony team.

 

[Grate n Colorful Oz]

Boucher > Michel

If Bergevin had any actual wits, he would've fired his FBF (Foxhole Buddy Forever), hired Boucher and kept Subban.

Oh and traded Casperrety for someone with more leadership.

 

[CristianoRonaldo]

That's comforting lol

i know.

 

[Habaneros]

Amazing they changed half the players and they still look exactly the same as last year. Hmmm...

It's all the same,only the names have changed- Bon Jovi

 

[LaP]

Players do what the coach ask. Specially the professional ones.

Nothing will change until the coach is fired.

 

[MaxDummy]

I forgot **** Pageau. So it means we are down 3 goals. I should start thinking about something else to do ...

There is a game starting at 8:30 that might entertain you

 

[The Nightman]

Double shift Radulov

 

[Habitant#1]

The problem with Markov-Weber as a pairing is neither is good enough to carry the other

 

[Kimota]

Shaw is an agitator and pest. Protecting and teammate standing isn't the first thing to expect out of him. Getting under the opponent's skin is his comfort zone.

When you're a gritty player and a "character guy" like they sold it to us, he's supposed to do all that.

 

[Non Player Canadiens]

haha man we're all so tilted right now

2-0 vs Ottawa though

 

[lou4gehrig]

Well I guess the only positive I can see is that MB/MT have gone all in with what they want by trading PK. So if (when) it fails miserably, they will certainly both be out. Right?

 

[CristianoRonaldo]

Karlsson speak faster than he skate.

 

[Newhabfan]

Two garbage goals and half the thread is about Subban and "the trade". Seems almost like people are happy we got scored on.


Let's have a drinking game ... everytime Subban is mentioned in the GDT. Or maybe not.

 

[Bourne Endeavor]

He has looked brutally slow.

Sadly, he always has been. My biggest concern with Weber is our lack of good transition-- an attribute he lacks. Didn't catch the Buffalo game yet, but he's looked brutal today.

 

[AshyHabs]

I wish we had toronto's prospects.
