But given where we are in the standings, halfway through the season, it's really not enough, especially given the opportunity to take two.

Scott462 Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 That will be 5 losses in a row. The effort is there but unlucky and unfortunately the injuries just have ruined this team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but I'm about 80% sure that if we have the same scenario at the other end, we get screwed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chiarot had a brutal line change too that helped lead to the first two-on-one. Then Suzuki's led to the winner.

Chris Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Thompson didnt cover his man on goal #2, So Suzuki made a mistake on a team that made a bunch of mistakes, The goal scorer still beat the habs player for the rebound Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomh009 Posted January 5, 2020 Author Share Posted January 5, 2020 On the positive notes ... Two goals by Lehkonen; he's easily on pace for a career high, without seeing any PP time Price playing like we expect Price to play Domi's point streak continues Scandella! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DON Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Entertaining game, but Habs sit 12th in the east and gonna need Kovalchuk to rip it up to get back into contention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DON Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Again, the blue goalie crease seems to mean absolutely nothing, as the winning goal showed. PK went 4-4 which was good. 21:52 for Suzuki (maybe was just gassed on OT and simply had to change?) 14minute for Poehling, is good amount. Chiarot 26:59 Fleury had 3 shots and looked pretty good out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Chicoutimi Cucumber Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 You know what bugged me about that game? The hockey gods wouldn't even allow us the sort of special moments that even losing teams sometimes get to enjoy. E.g., Scandella comes home, his tearful mom is in the crowd, it's a nice story - then he rips a slapshot that beats Murray and clangs off the crossbar. That goal would have been the perfect capstone, a great moment. But not to be. Similarly, Lemon-Hands Lehkonen gets two. Nice story, but the really special moment would have been a hat-trick. He had about three grade-A chances to make it happen and came within an inch in one of them. But not to be either. Sigh... Anyway, the Pens were the more dangerous team for most of the night, and the Habs made too many defensive mistakes. I think the overuse of Chiarot and maybe even Petry is starting to show. At least Price played very well, and I thought Scandella looked good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Misses a breakaway hits then hits a post to wi it with a hatty. Meanwhile everyone and there mother seems to score there first career goal or get there first shutout in the only true Mecca of Hockey. What I dont agree is on Chairot. He is in good form at the moment and hasnt slowed down. I'm ok with his use because he doesn't seem out of place with the added minutes. Mete however, didnt look to fluid in his game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
