  1. True for Gomez Sergei and D'Agostini but Lapierre took D'agostini job for a few shift. 2 games in two night is tough on a goalie but Price is the hot goalie right now and the Sens are playing the rebound a lot. No Halak there for me, maybe against Atlanta next week end.
  2. It was a Jacques Martin game plan game, the Habs blocked somehow 28 shots on that game. Flyers D played the same game plan with Laviolette. Boring, yeah but interesting yes, i like to watch who can play the MArtin system as a forward. - Moen is the best player for that kind of game, i would have gave him a 3 star The surprises, Sergei K, really plays great PK and position himself ahead of his man covered 5-5, made the transition play pretty by crafting plays not getting rid of the puck. Yeah it's amazing how Gill is slow but he knows is flaws pretty much more than anyone else. Somehow he get's the job done, it's not pretty but it works 90% of the time. Even Laraque looks ok there when he plays the system. On one play everybody was tired he took the puck threw it in reach and skate to it behind the goalie and all players had time to switch and put pressure. Deceptions, lack of guts, with Boucher in the net it could have ended 8-1 if they shot the net and challenged the centre of the ice, Flyers D owned it. Mara out, good we had a 7th D fot the job. But it stinks having another D hurt. These guys cannot play +22 minutes all the time.
  3. With injured players coming back with the habs makes the domino effect. White is back in the AHL and he did a heck of a good job in Montreal with body checks, playing a in your face style. I see him as the agitator that the habs miss. He saw he can play now he has to be that guy with the Dogs. Other players are on their way down if they do not perform next one is clearly Pyatt when Pouliot returns.
  4. The Habs have to fight for the puck everywhere on the ice. If they let Philly use their speed they are done, if they play the body they are done. And shoot and shoot again. I still don't get why Cammelleri and Gomez are not playing together...or Maybe a last chance for D'Agostini to show something, two passer one shooter. If he can get in a streak, that would help, habs need secondary scoring.
  5. A 1-1 talk with Roy and Carey may have happened too. I know Roy style taking Carey in a corner and giving him his thoughts. Hey you play very good but you can be great with more aggressiveness and dives. Did you see how Carey was tough ? not only good, but tough for miracles pad saves. Even for the hat trick my 1st was to Carey for that 5-3 PP. Special note to Hal Gill, he's been missed, O'byne 20 and finally Gomez. If fan want Cammelleri and Gionta to score they need passes from Gomez and or Sergei K. This is our offense. For the celebration, the 3 can finally go to heaven RIP. RESPECT. HE broke the french neg*r barrier and captained the team to rough time until came Maurice. to 3.
  6. And Saku was following him with his legendary move...it didn't work, but so fun to watch. For Latendresse, if Minnesota was necessary to give him balls then good for him. A guy that listen to Ginette Reno on his I POd before a game is not what a call a real men. Maybe rednecks will turn him out of his metro style, phony and girlishious to a men playing hockey.
  7. Want to hear something weird ? Pyatt-Gomez-White second line. How many points they show for ? White 2 pass, Pyatt 0, combined 24 games Martin is trying to shake Gomez by promoting 2 grinders on his wings. but not a way to give the opportunity for Gomez to produce, what the heck Martin wants him to do ? Play crash and bang style ?? euhhhhhhhhhhhhhheuhhhhh.
  8. Moen is doing what exactly there ? Drinked his Sakatchewaaaaan liver all sunday night and can't recover ? Please play Cammelleri with Gomez. Chipchura stinks. I like O'byrne, White and ....and let's say put the defensive of the Alouettes on skates.
  9. Lack of depth/quality defensively hurt in the last minutes. Mara, Bergeron, Gorges, the NJ guy and to some point Spacek don'T do the job to clear the zone. Sad to say we miss Gill, but it's true, pair him with Hammer and there is better chance they hold 40 seconds and then O'byrne covers some bodies for MArkov to clear the zone. ANd hey i had to discuus things over with ex habs fans last night who gave up on the team for Bob failure. Believe me there are many of these who gave up on the Habs, for many reasons but they are totally blind to the miracle these Hammer, Pyatt, White, Moen, Paccioretty, Gorges, Metropolit play to held this team head out of water. 1 They are not real fan they just bandwagoner. And i understand their frustraction to a certain point, fed up of overmercchendiding overpromising and not delivering. But a fan is a fan, good time bad times, like the GM or not. 2 Blindness to see the hardwork of players with limited capacity to bring results and not giving them recognition for that is a lack of hockey IQ. Hard work is rewarded somehow someday. 3 The players gone are gone, time to move on.
  10. The Gionta comment is very true, in the NHL referees call penaltys for interference only if a star/established player is in control of the puck. Wen did you see a forward of the opposing team have a penalty for tripping our defense like they called against Sergei ?? Bergeron is tripped or falls by himself on the ice 4-5 times a game. The slash on the foreharm of Andrei ?? Half the face of Pyattt has been cut by Umberger stick. Max Pac had the good reaction or he would have been hit directly to the head last night. No penalty. New NHL...bull...
  11. Your' d*mn right, constitency is a problem and it's quite normal with all the unexperienced guy out there. But you know what they play hard when theu come back ftom a bad shift. I'talking about White, Pyatt who are my big surprise players. Carey sees big pucks, but more importantly, as finally some luck on his side and bring us some wins. Great. Sergei is an NHL caliber player on the ice, he is plagued with the referees because he is gutsy, but you know what he is the best bet we can make for having points on the scoreboard anywhere out of our 5 million guys. MAB gives me arirhytmia with passes in front of the net. But he his a fairly good band aid. I'm very happy with the 09/10 version of O'Byrne so far. Different guy out there....shh keep that a good secret im more than staisfay with his stay at home and strenght to push guys around. Mara should learn from that. In fact i would send Mara to the bench press before every practice and with his format he would push opponent with the puck thing that he doesn't do at all. Other than that he is showing to be a great team player.
  12. Bringing Sergei back is the only option they have to create real scoring opportunities, like him or not he has talent and will, ore will than his brother i might say. Yeah he is a headcase so what ??manage him that why you paid for Martin. PP goals will make this team win some games...with talent on the ice, Sergei is the closest thing we have as a set up men.
  13. Washington, Detroit, Colombus Pittsburg. Ok we need big players + O'byrne, Laraque. But there is a ? too many similar player, White, Stewart, Chipchura we need an offensive player, Desharnais is my first choice , Sergei the second one. I would't mind having both. Cammalleri- Gomez -Metropolit Andrei Plek ? Max Pac-Pyatt- Moen Latendresse-Lapierre-Laraque
  14. Don't minimize the impact off a Markov less habs line up on the other players production. If no D can make that first pass on the tape it becomes very hard for small forwards to use their speed. Speed is what brings opponent to the penalty bench. Only 69 PP opportunity in 1/4 games is not near 78 the average of the league. MTl did score only 11 goals, league average is 16. It's more than safe to say that with Markov there would be 5 more goals would have been scored, more penalties would have been called against the habs because of Markov pass accuracy and more 5-5 goals on Markov pas opportunities. Cammelleri 16 points in 21 games would be easily 1 point a game. ok for 6 million. So hold on, O'byrne and Laraque are back with 479 pound more or less for vegetarian for tougher opposition. Washington, Detroit , Colombus and Pittsburg. Yeah they are teams loaded with talent, the only way to compete is put beef beef on the ice and play the system. Note to Laraque one word, nobody touches Plekanek and Gomez. Note to O'byrne, bring what you showed at the camp and you are our top right D.
  15. Maybe the next coach will choose one, Martin sure will not name someone to lead this team to crap. Crap will happen if they lose Carolina.
  16. Not bad at all. Louis Leblanc 20 5 2 5 7 18 .111 +4
  17. How about an A for the little girl that became a men ? This and a contract extension right nown before losing him for nothing. C Gionta A Markov A Plek He now plays gritty, shoots, skate, no one else except Gionta does that that every night.
  18. Latendresse-Lapierre were to be seen one time that period... I am getting fed up of Lapierre. I am not the only one when Metropolit is your third line centre by far. And by the way Stamkos is the best kid i have seen this year. Wow he sees the ice.
  19. Habs need 7 defensemen on the line up. Ouff what a chance missed there, Gomez line should be there more often, how can we say they play bad when they play as often as the 4th line.
  20. Spacek is hurt ? i know he took a hit to the head, came back later but what about him, if so yeah Leach makes sense being cheap chip. Maybe he'll make a Metropolit of himself...
  21. Tall, slow, leftie, stay at home. Somebody is dumb enough to pick crap to help the Devils. We should be the team that unloads players on waivers.
  22. On the delay he had the puck near his foots, he bends down and had no idea where his player were so he did like most of the guys there he got rid of the puck, too bad for him there is a rule about this because if there was a rule for a forward to get aa penalty to intentionally throw the puck in the stands i would call it the Gui Gui llaume penalty. Gill is doing good for a 6th depth defensemen, hell he plays 20 minute a game. It's way too much. I still don't understand why MArtin doesn't go with 7 defensemen dressed. These guys log to much time on the ice for their capacity and it shows against the stronger teams and brighter coach. Fnow i would call the best D in Hamilton play him 12 minutes a game and double shift one of the smurfs for the 4th line. Anyway that is what they will do when O'byrne will be back.
  23. Lapierre on the wings of Plekanec is not a bad idea at all. He was low average at C both offensively and defensely. He plays like we would like Latendresse to play. Neverminds the hits in the offensive zone, the job is getting the puck to the net Skate it, pass it, shoot blindly but get it to the goal.
