Post-Game Talk: PGT no one wants to make apparently...Preds 3 Habs 1

[le_sean]

What about that ice quality though

Ice? I thought they were playing on a Montreal highway.

 

[admiralcadillac]

Seemed like the ice was ****...nonstop turnovers by both sides

The ice looked like absolute crap

The habs played a great second period and couldn't bury it.

Not a loss to feel too badly about.

 

[Harry Kakalovich]

That must have been the worse ice we've played on this season. The puck was bouncing all over

vs the Rangers was v bad too

 

[HabsCowboysOwn]

Outclassed by an elite team, nothing surprising here. It just shows how far we still are from contending, one day I hope.

Nashville isn't really that good. Leafs are better then them IMO.

 

[Forum93]

Give aways cost us the game, disappointing 4th line didn't save us

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

Armia first wave

and Weber always shooting on the PP will not make this PP work.

 

[habtastic]

Gallagher is my boi, but he was not good on goals 2 and 3. Meh, it's frustrating, but this team has done enough to warrant giving them a break. This is what happens when you go 4 days (as a fan) without being able to watch.

 

[Apoplectic Habs Fan]

Gallagher, Drouin and Domi no showing lost MTL this game. Horrible effort by all 3.

The struggle to score is real even on Valentines Day

 

[The Great Weal]

Empty net breakaway, Mete misses completely. Lehkonen falls down and slides into the boards.

It's his 3rd season and a sneeze would make Lehkonen fall. Embarrassing.

 

[Kimota]

Nashville won but I cannot say they impressed me that much. Goalie was good but other than that, it felt like the Habs gave it away. Felt like the two teams were drunk, we couldn't see shit, the ice was bad, two bad PP.

But it's time to restart the discussion about getting another D.

 

[Harry Kakalovich]

a bit of a down game. Habs had to keep coming after they tied it. They took their foot off the gas, and Boyle buried them.

Offensively no doubt but all around I like NSH better. I think they’re a Panarin-type player away from being the clear cut favorites to win it all. Just my opinion of course.

True and i'm sure you realize this but the preds played on the same ice. We got beaten by a superior team that knows how to control a game. I can't really point any fingers at any individuals but in reality we are not good enough to hang with a team like that. They didn't give us the middle of the ice and even when we did manage to get there we had very little time with which to work.

 

[Kotkaniemi15]

Weise is overrated and did nothing this game. Thompson was alright. He wasn’t noticeable which is good for a 4th liner. Drouin was bad. I’ll be the first to say it. Domi wasn’t great either. Benn can introduce himself to he pressbox at this point. He’s not good.

We need to rebuild our entire left defense. There are some major holes we need to patch up before we can seriously contend. We need a young LD that can help us out long term. Hampus Lindholm would be the target and I would pay the price.

This game is indicative of what will be coming our way in the playoffs. We need more star power. We never have offensive stars in Montreal and it’s killing us.

I’m all in on going after Panarin/Stone/Duchene on July 1st. I feel like we’re most likely to sign Duchene out of the three and he would be tremendous for us. He might have been able to score a timely goal for us or be the spark when our offense seemed dead. I would give Duchene big money.

We still have a lot of kids coming up so eventually we’re going to be looking better. Mete isn’t going to be our 1LD for much longer. I’m optimistic about the future but I’m also wary that we weren’t built to contend this year and that we’re overachieving.

This was one of those games where we need to remind ourselves that we were supposed to be a lottery team. Good job, but not quite there yet.

So Detroit is a contender....they did outclassed this elite team in their last game.

Isn't that how it work?

 

[Runner77]

Damp House on AC: we've got passengers.

Basically, too many players didn't show up.

 

[vHAB]

Shout out to my boy Mete. At least I'm not the only one who can't score tonight

Detroit wouldn’t beat this team in a best of seven series and neither would we. It’s pretty obvious how far behind we still are from teams like that.

 

[Kotkaniemi15]

We sure could’ve used Radu in this game. If you want loyalty, buy a dog.

 

[Tyson]

Habs D simply not that good. Not sure what Bergevin will do

 

[MaxDummy]

Markov would look good feeding Weber on the PP.

How many times did I saw Weber shipping his shot motion because the puck is a couple of inches away from is wheelhouse ..

We are not that far behind but we are behind

No question. Worst ice I have EVER seen.
