GDT: NJ Devils @ Montréal Canadiens

[The Nightman]

You would think a guy making 4.6 million would be able to receive that pass... Thanks MB!

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Tanguay Koivu Latendresse
AK46 Pleky Kovalev
SK74 Lang ???
??? Lapierre ???

I forgot the rest. Was it also the year with Bonk/Johnson? Dandenault/Streit played some 4th line too, I think.

I love that lineup, btw. Had potential. Stupid injuries.

Higgins was an assistant captain on that team.

That was Pacioretty's 1st season.

Begin & Kostopoulos formed the 4th line with Lapierre.

Bruins down 4-1 to the Caps. Julien will have the Habs try to protect the tie to get at least a point and then lose in OT

 

[CauZuki]

Alzner pointless in 23 games...

 

[Tyson]

My god WTF did Bergevin see in Alzner?

 

[Johnny31]

Alzner trying to cut in the center of the ice to receive a pass. Too bad his hands are so bad that he cant even control a pass

 

[LaP]

Shaw has played well, though.

He is playing well lately. But the word lately is the key here. Every time Shaw has a good sequence the usual crowd comes back and pump his tire. Then when he disappears those people either disappear too or try to find a bunch of excuses.

When he will finish a season with 20 goals and 40 points i'll the first to come here and congratulate him. If he does that 3 seasons in the 6 years that will last his contract i'll be the first to come here and admit i was wrong. I'm not afraid to say i was wrong about Byron and his contract.

But so far Shaw has been a very inconsistent player. He goes from solid 2nd liner to barely a 4th line player. Inconsistent in his production and in his effort too. You never know who will show up. The playoffs of last year Shaw. The beginning of the season Shaw. The last 8 games Shaw. He had a good sequence in the middle of last season too. In the end what matters is what he does over a full season. Everyone has good sequences.

What could MB possibly do to turn this around

 

[Tyson]

I read somewhere that Habs were not interested in Will Butcher....

 

[Tyson]

What could MB possibly do to turn this around

Quit

 

[The Great Weal]

Disgusting that we didn't resign Markov for 1 year. His contract wouldn't hinder us from getting the 5th liner Bergevin has been scouting for the last month.

 

[sampollock]

PP time

 

[Whitesnake]

Alzner pointless in 23 games...

But he does all the little things.

I mean there is NO WAY we should have given 2 years to Markov. No way! WAs never going to happen! But 5 years to Alzner? Sure! No prob!

 

[Saint Patrick]

What could MB possibly do to turn this around

Quit, quickly

 

[bryan1966]

What could MB possibly do to turn this around

hand in his resignation!

 

[Johnny31]

I read somewhere that Habs were not interested in Will Butcher....

Yep I read this too, it seems that they haven't offer him a contract when he was one of the biggest need of the team

 

[Censored Toad]

From what I've seen so far (Just the second period) it has been the carey price show. Was the first period like this too?

 

[sampollock]

Boring pp

 

[Saint Patrick]

I like Hudon and Shaw, but first pp wave. Seriously?

 

[sheed36]

I just realized that the Habs top scorer is 118th overall... Jesus F. Christ.

My post earlier in this thread. The Habs offense is really fugly..

They just showed a chart on TSN of teams and the number of players on those teams that have 20 points and over already this season.

Here's teams with at least 5 players and over from a quick look..

Tampa: 7 players
Nashville: 7 players
Vegas: 6 players
NYI: 6 players
Pens: 6 players
Leafs: 6 players
Caps: 5 players
NYR: 5 players
Blues: 5 players
Habs: 0 players

 

[sampollock]

What the Sam H

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

Cripes Weber... wtf was that? That pass was f***ing dumb.

 

[Saint Patrick]

Powerhouse Pacioretty on the pp, Devils must be trembling.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Big save by Price.

 

[nhlfan9191]

Big ****ing save. TERRIBLE by Weber.
