What is happening.

 

Shaw has done nothing to deserve power play time.

 

I understand you need a guy to be in front of the net, but give it to Danault or Mitchell.

Shaw wins faceoffs, that's why he's there.

This year he's winning some in a small sample size but he's a career 46.6% guy at the faceoff dot.

It probably is why he's there though regardless considering he's playing center.

Mitchell and Danault should not be used on the PP. Mitchell has enough on his plate playing on the best 4th line in the league and being the only capable face off man at this point. 

Danault does not play the type of game needed to be in front of the net, he's way to polite.

Danault has been playing some of the best hockey of his career  

 

Don't play Mitchell; the guy who's leading the team in goal scoring, because he plays on the best fourth line in the league. Great strategy 

 

You know what scoring at 5 on 5 gets you? power play time

Don't agree with Byron sitting up on the second line. Carr has more potential there. Hopefully Carr will play great and force Therrien to move him up. That or insert Andrighetto. Both Carr and Andrighetto are a better fit on the second line. Nothing against Byron but hes more your 3rd/4th liner.

Shots 14-5 for the Bruins. The trend continues

 

I know the shots were lopsided but I thought the Habs were a lot better than those might indicate.  They missed the net a lot (on what would have been some good chances).  I thought that was one of their better opening periods lately.

 

I'm a bit surprised McIntyre is in for Boston - I know Rask played yesterday and isn't great against Montreal but this is a big rival and a divisional matchup, that seems like a risky play to give someone their second NHL start.  That said, Montreal needs to get more shots through to test him.

Quite a bit of scoring in a short time to start the second period.

 

First Weber puts the Habs up by 1 with a great hard shot. His fourth of the year to tie for first amongst defence in goals.

 

Price uncharacteristically let's in a bad goal. Bad bounce but should have been aware of the lively boards. 1-1

 

Galchenyuk taps home a feed from Radulov to put the Habs up 2-1

Besides Weber, nobody can hit the net.  Pathetic.

 

It's interesting you say that - only two of his seven shot attempts have actually hit the net.  The Habs are certainly missing the net on quite a few high quality chances though, hopefully that doesn't come back to bite them.

Ya, but he scored.  Petry fires canons that never hit the net and the forwards have missed golden opportunities.  Game should be 4-0 MTL.  Price let in a softie when his stick broke.
