habscout Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 I couldn't watch the game Thursday night, as the heavy snow & cloud cover knocked out my satellite. I only saw the "highlights" this morning. There was a point in the 2nd period where Theodore made a leg save and went down wincing in pain. I read later that the trainer worked on him for around 5 minutes then he continued to play. For those of you who watched the game, I'd like to hear your comments on how well or poorly Theodore played after the injury. I'm asking this because I'm wondering if it had an impact in any way on the Habs blowing the 3-1 lead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haboholic Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 no it had no impact. habs just couldnt handle the pressure, we had 6 shots in 2 periods. i think thats enough to draw ur own conclusions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riker Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 I am not sure. Saw it as it happend on RDS at it seems to be his groin again. I was a very routine move getting from the left post to the right on his knees the he flinched (it could have costed a goal - PHEW). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koivu-11 Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 My prediction theo is not playing on saterday against the wild, hes been playing on a groin injury for more then half the season already so i think its time to give him a break and put huet so he can get at least on game under his belt.

BTH Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 No, it wasn't Theo's fault. Hopefully Huet playes better than Conklin did last night. Yikes! Had we gotten more shots on goalwe surely would have won. Conky fumbled Souray's long bombs from center ice a few times and has real problems handling the puck. He also messed up on Ryder's goal. Is Markkanen injured or just taking the day off? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Cristo gets the start on saturday: bonne chance mec. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Umm i think he wasn't injured because they asked their coach if it was hard to chose between who to start out of the 3 goalies they have he said its not easy but well give conklin the start tonight.

Theo had little chance on that shot, Moreau was allowed to walk into the circle and he wired a rocket high to the blocker side. It was a great shot, the kind that has to hit the goalie in order for him to stop it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mathieug Posted December 17, 2005 Share Posted December 17, 2005 "J'ai reçu un lancer frappé sur la rotule. À cet endroit, les gardiens sont mal protégés avec les nouvelles jambières. J'ajoute maintenant un protecteur additionnel mais ça ne suffit pas pour bien protéger le genou. J'ai terminé la deuxième période mais c'était douloureux. Et comme j'ai la tête dure, j'ai décidé de rester dans le match. J'avoue que je m'en veux aujourd'hui. Je prends le blâme pour la troisième période. Je n'ai pas été honnête envers mes coéquipiers. Je n'aurais pas dû continuer. Ce fut une mauvaise décision. J'ai manqué de jugement. Je ne dis pas que j'aurais pu empêcher le quatrième but. Mais je n'ai pas défié le joueur des Oilers comme j'aime le faire généralement" - José Théodore, La Presse, vendredi 16 décembre 2005 :hlogo: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took a puck to the knee, it hurt me despite some extra padding I had. I'm stubborn so I said I was ok and played the third period even though I probably shouldn't have. It's my fault, that was a bad decision. I didn't stand up to the Oiler player as I should have on the fourth goal..." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
habscout Posted December 17, 2005 Author Share Posted December 17, 2005 Yeah, I had a feeling that the injury had an impact on the rest of his play that game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
