The headline nicely somes up Drouin’s impact on both teams during his career up to now:

Tampa is a bit like Nashville, in that they combine a fair amount of success with excellent drafting and development. Basically the opposite of the Bergevin Habs.

Yep.  MB’s strategy is ride Price and hope he gets a shutout and pray that we can at least score one goal

I've got a funny feeling this is the game that leaves anyone's lingering hopes for a playoff revival face down in the mud during a rainstorm. 

 

Kinda like Tom Cruise in the Last Samurai when he gets beat with a wood stick.. into the mud.. during a storm.

 

This is going to be painful...

This game is essentially a referendum on GM ability. Steve Y has two years of extra time on his hands compared to MB.

 

As of now, TB is a dominant team with a recent Cup final to its resume. MTL does have a conference final appearance to speak of but absolutely zero positives going forward.

I don't think one game is a referendum on GM ability.  By this i mean, even if the Habs win today, Stevie is still the better GM.  One win doesn't change that. 

Stevie has done a much better job than MB, that is obvious regardless of the result tonight.

Yep. MB is a joke. 

 

Patches looked especially useless on that PP i must say. It really might be time to think about moving him.

Hadnt even contemplated the thought of a Habs win!

 

Times are dark for the bleu, blanc et rouge.
