Post-Game Talk: Well, Caufield scores two in Habs loss.

[ReHabs]

This is bad. This is as bad as the last few games that finally got Ducharme fired when we were getting shelled every game.

It isn't the losing. It's the lack of compete, lack of drive, lack of work ethic. And, it's being driven by guys like Drouin, Hoffman, Armia, Anderson, Dvorak & Edmundson.

It's OK to lose, but not like this. This is ugly.

Gallagher too.

“Intangibles” (Allen, Eddy, Anderson, Gallagher, & Dvorak to an extent) are worthless when they’re not supporting tangibly good performances.

As leader of the pro tank high society, I must admit that this is not a healthy turn of events.

I got the GDT poll question right, at least. What do I win?

Backward wings. You have to bring them to La Cage du Sport. Hope you live local.

 

[ReHabs]

I posted the same thing during the game, the team looks exactly like the Ducharme habs, completely checked out, maybe on Marty. His body language is concerning as well, the enthusiasm of the first 25 games is gone.

How did you expect a born competitor and fiery personality to handle one of the worst rosters in the NHL?

Tanking is bad.

If MSL is smart he will take his frustrations out on a dartboard with Bergevin’s sweaty face on it.

 

[OldCraig71]

The anti-tankers will commit collective suicide if that happens

Imo it won't be that bad.

Tanking is necessary but what we have seen in the last three losses is concerning.

No, it would be a long drive from Michigan.

 

[Grate n Colorful Oz]

We're now only +7 over Columbus, +9 over Anaheim and +11 over Chicago (win +/-)

We were around +12/+14 over all three just weeks ago.

Bottom 3 is feasible if we continue the super-sucking

 

[StCaufield]

hopefully msl stops breast feeding the team and actually challenges them. Seems like he doesn’t do that. Nobody ever benched or held accountable. He should be the coach but I don’t see much of a backbone yet

 

[sheed36]

Completely off topic, but at least Michigan is having their asses handed to them by TCU!! Damn probably jinxed them now!!!

 

[Habs13]

Some sort of wake up needs to be made. Can't trade any of these losers so wave a few. I'd rather see a kid like Ylonen, who I'm not at all sold on, over half the players currently on the team. Nobody is going to trade for Dadonov or Drouin so waive them and try somebody else. I don't care who. Just switch it up.

 

[ROEN]

This type of loss makes me feel like a buffalo sabres fan up to 2021

 

[Doc McKenna]

Ottawa has 10 goals from 6 players. Do we have 6 goals from 6 players?

 

[Grate n Colorful Oz]

OMG I accidentally bet on the wrong team!

Hey that's @groovejuice

Saddened that he never comes by nowadays

 

[morhilane]

I was sure the team would stick to .450-550 range this season, but with the way the vets have checked-out now, I expect them to not win a lot of games among the ones remaining.

 

[Habs13]

we don't need picks; we need cap-space and less radioactivity in the locker room lol

Can never have too many picks...

 

[Stive Morgan]

Hey that's @groovejuice

Saddened that he never comes by nowadays

I don't appreciate the judgmental way Frank Zappa is looking at me

"$800 on the Habs? Really, man?!"

 

[Fatbiggie]

Damn do we ever suck when the Habs players Moms are tagging along on a road trip. I swear we are getting run over every year they are in ( or every road trip ever)

If MSL is smart he will take his frustrations out on a dartboard with Bergevin’s sweaty face on it.

What he did on the ice does not necessarily translate to success behind the bench (see Gretzky). He has no experience at coaching at any significant level and it shows. He might be frustrated by his own lack of ability. The questions will get tougher and it will be interesting to hear his responses.

 

[BozoTheClown]

Dang!
Thought the game started at 4pm.
Guess I didn’t miss much, but looking a the state, it’s pretty obvious that Drouin, Anderson, Armia, Hoffman, Gallagher and Edmundson all need to go.

 

[Grate n Colorful Oz]

Not in the 4th to 7th round range, which is something bunglebrains never understood

 

[Kennerback]

Good news: MSL got Caufield scoring. Bad news:

As leader of the pro tank high society, I must admit that this is not a healthy turn of events.

The upside is the utter lack of interest of vets gives us Tank certainty. That has to be worth something.

 

[GordonGraham]

They tried Drouin on the 1st 2nd 3rd 4th line, as a centre, as a winger and as an healthy scratch as well

What are they waiting for to trade him/waive him ?

 

[Cournoyer12]

Sorry Doc McKenna your probably a Michigan fan. I meant no disrespect, looks like I jinxed TCU anyway

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

Tanking is necessary but what we have seen in the last three losses is concerning.

I’m not concerned.

Welcome to rebuilding. This is what it looks like.

 

[Habs13]

I find it odd that people are comparing MSL to Dumb Dom... this is still the same team. It doesn't have any pieces that MSL has brought it yet - not counting the rookies. So what did people expect would change?

Still the same loser mentality with the same loser players. We have TWO good forwards and ONE with potential. That's it.
