That sounds like Habs' drafting and development, all right I know the "first game back from a road trip" is supposed to be death, but they're gonna win tonight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huzer Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Go Habs! I'll most likely miss the bulk of this one tonight. Since it'll be the first game of the season I'll miss, maybe they'll get the win for a change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnyhasbeen Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Tonight it all turns around because I am finally back in Canada to watch a game. 6-1 Habs. Let's get this train back on the track, Team is not as bad as it has looked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Chicoutimi Cucumber Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Massive save on Barkov after Yandle makes an o-zone play that no Hab defenceman could make in a million years. A 'breakout attempt' so laughably inept by Benn/ Alzner that that duo might as well be in the employ of the Panthers. And Drouin looking lethal on every single shift, plus an actual recorded bodycheck by Pacioretty! Entertaining so far, at least. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like how you stay positive, I hate to admit it but I'm having alot harder a time doing that watching some of the "low IQ hockey" plays in the O-zone :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alzner is fulfilling all of the promise of ineptness I thought he would bring. He’s a classic 90’s dman. To bad for us it’s 2017. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dlbalr Posted October 25, 2017 Author Share Posted October 25, 2017 That was an ugly start but the Habs were a lot better in the second half of the period. Price looks a lot more like Price in his movements/reads as well which is good to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbhatt Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 Well, we still can't score....but at least Carey looked sharp, and Max played like he might actually have a pulse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FLA was the better team for most of the period, but the Habs did very well toward the end. Our D remains clownish and Galchenyuk looks as lost as I've ever seen him. In better news, MaxPac is playing a really excellent all-around game. That is what he needs to do - make a difference in other ways if he's not scoring. And the Drouin line looked very good. Scherbak had a nice shift there, but his linemates are turds so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alzner, Benn, Briere, martinsen, king, semin, hemsky, streit, ott, Parros, Tangradi, pleks extension, kassian signing and subsequent trade for Ben friggin Scrivens, John Scott, Subban trade, Sergechev trade easily badly offset the vanak trade and the Byron, weisse and danault pickups. i didn’t list Petry, because I’ve mever been a fan - so while many like him, too me he’d be part of the negative ledger.

I guess after we trade him for a grinder and MB gets fired, the next move is to hire either carbo or Martin as coach. to think if Therrien was fired we could have had guy Boucher!

zumpano21 Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 I’m watching the TB game. We should never have traded Sergachev. He’s going to be incredible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
