I'm starting to get sick (probably from crow)
Did Slaf try harder ?

Lot of players contributing to this streak.
Dach seems less tentative and playing more physical, which is getting him to play his skill game more. Man it would solve a huge issue if he could be our 2C.
I have to mention Pezz. Guy plays every shift. He is has a 1.0 plus HPM ( hits per minute ).

Yeah he played a great game
I think the impact of Carrier is underestimated; he puts everyone in the right chair . Matheson doesnt need to play 30 minute games with Carrier and Hutson taking on defensive and offensive missions. Struble and Wifi have less responsibilities, which is perfect. Marc Denis (color commentator for habs games on RDS) made some good points that even Guhle was noticeably better with Carrier at his side.
I'm especially impressed that Savard and Laine havent played the last 3 games and you can't really tell.

I was sure they were going to collapse with Monty playing bad and how they started the 2nd period. But they said nope and "screw you Refs!" instead.
Officially in WC1 until tonight Jacket/Pen game.
Going to OT with the Canucks helps them stay above the Flames in the standing too. So perfect "tank-mix" night.
Who had the Habs in a playoff spot and playing above .500 before playing game 42 after that 2-10-0 start?

Playoff spot at game 42? No
However, a few of us did post in preseason prediction thread the Habs would be battling it out for a wildcard spot this season….

At this point this team is probably getting underestimated around the league due to our poor start and the last few years of tanking. But right now the Habs are showing that when they play to their potential as a cohesive unit they can beat anyone in the league.
What they need now is consistency and not getting into losing streaks. You cannot win every game but losing one here and there is acceptable. Winning 5 in a row only to lose 6 after that is not.
Hopefully they can keep riding the current good vibe they are on. If they do this team is making the playoffs. Erasing Toronto in the first round would be glorious lol

Matheson and Savard look so much better with more limited ice time since the acquisition of Carrier, crazy what that move has done for this team!!

I don't do it often. But I"m watching the game a second time, while having my morning coffee. Great way to start the day.

Its the biggest lesson, that teams can have talent but if people are in the wrong chairs, the downstream impact it can have, can make good teams look terrible.

I'm reading that Monty played a bad game. I really don't see it. Did he play Dobes-ish like? No, but he was good enough for us to win. In saying that, I'd like to see Dobes get the next start.

Don't think it was bad bad, but not great game. The consensus was that with Dobes this isn't going into OT. Habs win in regulation. No need to help canucks with extra points.

He's slowly becoming one of my favourite players on the team. The goals are nice, but if you watch him closely. He just seems to do all the little things, that normally go unnoticed.

I can see that. Maybe I'm just old and grumpy lol. I'm just not ready to hand over the #1 spot to Dobes just yet. Monty is still our #1. Dobes, if he continues to show what he has so far. Will get his chance.
