Pre-Game Talk: Round 1 Game 4 : Washington @ Montreal Sunday April 27th 6:30pm EST

[Mrb1p]

A concern that I have is the hard decline by David Savard. He is clearly banged up and whoever is his partner will also struggle.

He was good in game 3. Limited minutes and PK duties.

 

[Gustave]

Yeah control your own destiny type shit.

Still would be nice to have a little help from les fantomes du Forum.

Yup, those f***ers got three free goals going off Guhle, Savard and Matheson’s leg…

Enough of those

 

[SwiftyHab]

Would love to have Orville fill in for Savy today

 

[Soaker]

Expecting a tight checking game with not many scoring chances boys.

Dobes gives a lot of rebounds so you know the wingers will have to get heavily implicated lower in the zone and it will stiffle our transition a bit.

It will be important for the habs to capitalize on the PP and stay out of the box.

Thompson gives up so many rebounds you'd think he's allergic to vulcanized rubber.

 

[Grate n Colorful Oz]

Dvorak should only be signed if they aren't able to acquire another centre.

Even if we acquire another center, the chemistry might not establish itself, and we might not have a 2nd stable line. It's a risk you're willing to take, but I'm not sure Hughes will take that risk.

Going into next season with only one established stable line is a foolhardy proposition, even if we get some miracle trade or FA 2C. Nothing about that acquisition will be a sure thing.

Don't be surprised if Dvo gets renewed before we even get a chance to acquire the much coveted 2C.

I am a fake Texan...I don't own boots or a cowboy hat

Is your broad blonde with a major rack?

 

[teamfirst]

Hes incredibly soft in the corners, lets up and loses battles left and right, just unnacceptable stuff. The focus isn't on him so far but gahd damn I cant with him.

Agree with you for most of the games he played but not the last one, i really liked his game friday and i really don't like his game usually.

But i know you where at the BC for the game..... more fun but you can't see details that we see watching it on TV unless you have very good an expensive tickets.......by the way, must have been amazing bein there you lucky f***

We have many of those but we also have many Latina goddesses running around

You are going to get in trouble for saying anything negative about Fatso, be prepared

I was wondering if we'd see him called up after practice.

I love Savard, my concern is his health. Great teammate.

 

[Tyson]

While Reinbacher has missed significant time I am convinced he could step in right now.

How can you guy's think about next season right now...........all i can think of is how long this day will be before puck drop

Thompson gives up so many rebounds you'd think he's allergic to vulcanized rubber.

Both Monty and him are not very good at ‘reading the room’. We were blessed with CP31 to have a goalie who knew when to freeze it. I think Dobes does that too when he’s in his zone.

And I agree with our colleague on this one. This is where you can see some of Savard’s utility( the stuff behind the camera. Plus he gets a lot of passes from the refs on his play because he’s a respected vet.

 

[Kennerback]

I love Savard, my concern is his health. Great teammate.

His 5 on 5 game has really declined. He’s just a staple on the PK. Not a fan of Matheson either. But those two guys are still our best PK options. They really need to give a crash course to Guhle and hopefully RB over the summer.

Translation SVP.

I really feel for the kid, can you imagine how nervous he feels right now, just hope for a good solid game for him

 

[dinodebino]

Translation SVP.

Know when your D needs you to freeze the puck. Fans go nuts on saves both goalies make (Thompson and Monty). But in a lot of cases, the saves are made because they allowed badly timed rebounds. With CP31, it looked boring at times because he knew when his D needed a respite.

 

[Natey]

He was good in game 3. Limited minutes and PK duties.

He played more than in game 2, lol.

I wouldn't say he played good. He played better. But Washington also got rattled early.

 

[Tyson]

That's the Texas we all love. Try sitting at El Paso airport for a few hours!

 

[Natey]

Glad Thompson's injury isn't serious.

But that's going to make the series a lot tougher.

 

[schwang26]

HOW??? That was a nasty collision. Cross check to the head plus he couldn’t skate because of his leg. I hope this decision costs them the game.
