Toronthab Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 another penalty to OTTAWA????????? What's with the refs?? Nice 1 on 4 rush Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
habscout Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 Game, Set..... Talk about a game of inches.. " What If...." All started Game 1 with 50 shots on Anderson...Facing a goalie that is at his best. 1. injuries. 2. Untimely goals by Senators 3. or that one big save to keep team in it When its not your series, you look for all kinds of excuses ( officiating, unlucky bounces..) The team made strides this year to get back into the playoffs and exceeded expectations in facing 2nd in the Eastern Conference in a shorten season. With all the new staff and extra people ( scouts etc,,,) they now can look at a 48 game plus playoff to look at where the team is going and progress. There were signs at end of season showing the team is not yet ready to contend: 1. .500 hockey last 20 games ( 10-10) plus 1-3 (4?) playoffs.. So a Below .500 team in last 24/25 games 2. Positive is young players have been evaluated ( even if they arent getting th minutes some would like..) 3. Depth of team..where to go from here... 4. Senators are not exactly top tier contenders either. But their young players have been given minutes to show their stuff. 5. End of day, the team wasnt ready this year. All and all a good season. Address some of the issues of the veterans and if they are past their prime. 6. Who in the FA market can be brought in. 7. With all the 2nd round/ 3rd , who can we find, can we find ( Lucic, marchand, Bergeron: what accelerated Bostons rise...countless other examples with other now top contenders.) yes can find jewels in rough, This is a key year for the organization. Season went well, but playoffs maybe made expectations of team to a more realistic level ( well going back to last 20 games of season). Cheering the Habs on till the end That was well said. I can't disagree with anything. I'm believe the future is bright with some of the younger players, and trust that Bergevin will continue to make the necessary moves to improve the team overall. I'm not a fan of the two 4 year contracts he's given to Desharnais [at the time, still too unproven] and Moen [too slow, one dimensional]. I'm chalking up those two moves as "rookie" mistakes for the GM, but I expect better from him going forward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hab29RETIRED Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 Bouillon another adventure in his own end against Pageau I'd say that was a pathetic shot by DD, but i guess he actually got a shot on goal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brobin Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 Dd and Pleks are useless because they can't drive the net, so they just take crap perimeter shots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
