GDT: Montreal @ Toronto - 7pm - CBC TVA 98.5 690

Imagine if he bothered to win a board battle instead of relying on Radu and Danault to do it.

I'd rather imagine Danault putting up a point or two.

 

[sandysan]

Good thing his game doesn't rely on size, and he's very, very good at what he does.

Disappearing in the playoffs? Sulking at the first sign of adversity?

He may be the best we have but it's by default.

 

[TRG]

Patch deserved criticism at the beginning of the season. He was SOFT as ****. But he's been great for a while now.

People are way too harsh on Pacioretty. He's been carrying Habs offense all by himself for quite a while now.

Being PPG while your linemates are at like 0.3 PPG recently is really difficult.

A 3rd liner? Meh.

 

[TRG]

Petry with a boulevard in front of him, doesn't move an inch, shoots from the blue line.

ffs.

 

[No More Subban]

Its been awhile since Ive been nervous watching a hockey game. This game has a playoff atmosphere

 

[Kenny Powders]

Yep. Too bad he's not a perfect player.

He's still one of the best scorers in the NHL.

With how we are playing, Scoring one goal a game isn't gonna make us win. We need hustle from all the players and that starts with the captain

 

[Maliki2]

The ACC has terrible ice.. also Radulov needs to wake up. His plays hasn't been up to his standards for a while now.

And people want to give him whatever he wants..rumor is hes looking for 7 million a year for three years or less for term. No thanks.

He was INJURED as ****.

Pacioretty has 9 goals in 31 games against PO teams.

It was a nice hustle from him on that 1st goal he scored.

Nylander has such a quick stick... Man would it be nice to have a player like that.

Tanking a few years for guys like that would be nice but the way the Habs under Bergevin have trended, I'm thinking if he's still the GM and keeps same systems and people employed it wouldn't matter. We'd ruin their developments. Outside of Price, how many of our scant top 10 picks turned out great? Galchenyuk still a work in progress, Kostitsyn never became a bonafide quality 1st liner. Price really. Patches is the best goal scorer the Habs churned out since Richer and he was a late 1st round "project" they said at the time. It's gonna be hard enough for the Leafs to make sure the fishbowl of Toronto doesn't lead to decline but their odds of future greatness much stronger than ours. I don't think that can be argued.

It's because habs are actually playing. They've put hearts and brains so far in this game. Mistakes of course, lacking confidence obviously, but they actually want to win, so do we. I like the direction it's taking.

No Movement Clause

He was INJURED as ****.

He had no hustle at all.

 

[Belial]

Come on boys!!!

 

[Hab-a-maniac]

Pacioretty has 9 goals in 31 games against PO teams.

Be that as it may, the whole team has had issues with true quality teams all season. Patches is one of the last guys I'd pick on this season. Guy is on pace for his 2nd highest total in a season and is paid under his market value. We can talk about his captain abilities since the team has looked more rudderless since he got the C, but without his goal scoring we'd be down the near the bottom of the NHL in offence (and we've been heading to the middle of the pack this past month after being top 5-7 most of the season).

 

[LaP]

AG is now 3rd for points since middle of January (behind Radu and Patch). Byron 2 points in his lat 17 games. Same as Carr who played only 5 games in the same amount of time. Plekanec 3 points in his last 17 games. 1 more than carr who again played only 5 games.

After that ********* effort Montreal gave vs the Islanders....they play like this vs the laffs ...where the hell is the 60 minute effort moving your feet no passengers....PATHETIC.....people need to be fired.

At the end of the day, you win or die with your best players.

Being the best scorer on a team that can't score doesn't make you good. He's a streaky sniper with a knack of dissapearing when the games have meaaning.
