GDT: Nashville @ Montreal - Part II

[JuicyHam]

We're winning this! GHG!

Well obviously but we are losing right now so it's time to panic.

 

[sheed36]

no need, i heard julien will fix that

The Habs have 3 offensive forwards. As for the other 9 forwards you can polish a turd but it's still a turd.

And here I thought that by getting of rid of the people who were ****ing up this team, it would mean instant great results?

Where are those people anyway? Therrien.....DD......Barberio......all gone and yet....still the same ****ing uninteresting play, and borderline results. Strange how it is. Good news is that people will FINALLY see what needs to be seen. Show me the talent!

Not available/too expensive/Not a good fit/the window is eternal anyway, no rush.

 

[Hackett]

Looking around the league.... Man it's a very low scoring night.

2-0 sens in the 3rd
1-0 caps in the 3rd
A couple 1-1 games in the 3rd

This offence is dry as hell. It's, essentially, three players.

The Preds aren't dominating; it's our offence that is sooooooooo bad. Radulov is getting frustrated. I think Danault has been rattled by his teammate's fits on the ice. He looks completely frozen and afraid to make a mistake. Intimidated. That is why Muller talked to him a long time.

Radulov needs to calm his **** a little here. No use for that type of behavior. He hasn't played a fantastic game himself either. In fact, since Julien took over, I'd say he played 2-3 solid games max. I'm wondering if the contract situation is bothering him. I mean, besides his 4-point night, he had like, what, 1 point in 9 games?

 

[Skip Bayless]

This team cannot make a tape to tape pass to save its life.

We have got to be the most boring team to watch in the league

 

[Lshap]

It makes no sense that so many of our forwards can't get a damn point. Danault, Lehkonen, Byron -- okay, they're not 20-goal scorers, but they're not zero-goal scorers either. Something has to give. Same with Gallagher, who was a 20+ goal scorer up until a few months ago.

Something has to give.

 

[Markov4Captain]

Your team cant score for a month and you think its because some players are going through a rough patch? its a joke

I prefer to think that Radulov knows he made a bad pass and that's why he was mad. He wasn't mad at Danault, he was mad at himself. That pass was way ahead of Danault. He had zero chance to one time that.

it's not panic if win or lose a rational individual can see we clearly need offense and that job belongs to MB. It's been the same concern for 5 years.

just need a new coach

This. Even terrible teams score 2 goals per game

Therrien, DD and Barberio were not good, plain and simple. These results don't change that fact. I wonder why you still harp on that. It's over with, we got rid of a very bad coach. I like the way we play, personally. Very tight. Problem is that this team just lacks talent. It's evident to see. Just no talent after the first top-3.

 

[Belial]

Well obviously but we are losing right now so it's time to panic.

We're not playing bad, just struggling offensively.

 

[bleuetbio]

Even if Im not proud of not being able to get offense this deadline, MB has made the best deadline the Vanek's year and the best UFA summer this year with Radulov. Thats only why I would give him redemption. He's already proven us that he's able to be the best at this two specifics moments.... but we cannot always be the winner

 

[Whitesnake]

Danault would have as much success playing on Crosby's wing as center with Patch and Radulov. THAT is the point.

We don't have a Crosby or Malkin. Instead we have Price, Weber, Patch and Radulov.

No team is stacked at all positions.

The point is that it's silly to make a ridiculous claim such as "If Danault is playing at *insert position* you're a bad team"

Nah, the point is that everybody who wins the Cup and go far do NOT need their best player to be the goalie. And most teams who go as far as have more than 1 offensive real star on their lineup with d-men that can pass the puck and play a great transition game. THAT what a team should be made of. That's the recipe for success. Aside from Boston, that's what worked since this new NHL came in.

So fine...don't be stacked at EVERY position. But be stacked at the RIGHT ones.

I agree and I hope. But Radulov has not been himself for a while. At least, regularly.

 

[CristianoRonaldo]

you guys don't want to know what i paid for my Pens tix lol last home game I've been burned for

Bergevin is embarrassing this franchise

we need scoring and he brings 4th liners it's like the hockey borg

"We are harder to play against "


My ass.

 

[zx81]

the habs are now scoreless at home in their last how many regulation periods now?

10.5 ?

Took MB 5 years to figure out the Habs needed more size. How many more years tell he figures out it also needs some skilled and talented players?

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Pretty boring game by the Habs.

There is zero offense on this team.

You can see Rads getting frustrated with Danault, who while I love him as a player is completely miscast as a #1 center.

I would try him with Lehkonen and Gally. Take some pressure off and get him away from the tight checking. Chucky hasn't been bad in this game. Promote him.
