Hughes’ three assists Monday helped him reach 400 career assists in his 484th game
Wow!
marty doesn't trust Struble or Arber. Fingers crossed on Reinbacher for next year.

Pick play on entry too.
Literally all night. They are amazing at it.

Boldy has impressive strenght and puck shielding. That one hander was nice.
-
So many picks and holds.
-
Wild making smart picks all night. On the edge of illegal. Ive seen a lot of those called against the habs over the years.

Well played game so far. Even on 50 50 pucks. No big defensive mistakes.

I don’t know what to think of this quote.
My stats are poor but it’s not my fault and I’m working hard so stats are misleading…
Is that what Monty is basically saying here?
I think its good. He isnt in his own head about it. Move on.

P.S. I'm still salty about your 18/19 season prediction win over me in a tie breaker, but it's hilarious that you're still rocking it on your posts
Oh shit. I only use devices. Forgot that was there.

He has been great since being out on the 2nd line, but he’s trying over handle the puck lately, or trying to go through the other team. I think they should try a line swap for Dach and Demidov.
No way! Let them work through it. They find each other regularly.

It is absolutely incredible how Dobes has the record that he has with the way that he plays the position. He is out there doing the Booker T spinaroonie most nights, but somehow keeps racking up the wins. My thirteen year old son who is a goalie is more technically sound than he is.
Booker t spinaroonie. Didnt you coin cardio joe? Youre on a roll.

First guy I’d sit is Gallagher. If play Blais over him.
Not me. Gallagher line was excellent last game. Top notch. Kept the play in the o zone every shift. Need to keep that line together at least one more game.

I found this game to be exceptionally frustrating but after some time to ponder things I think the Habs are giving a great deal of effort.
Ottawa, Wings, Caps, Buffalo are all gritty teams that play heavy. What I was perceiving as lack of effort (low shot count, losing most battles) might actually be a play style that our team struggles with.
Habs can’t match the heavy play and we can’t skate through it. Our defence is incredibly mobile but not tough at all (Arber can fight but he isn’t a player like Chairot). The only forward that has “jam” is Anderson (Slaf uses his body but he isn’t a physical menace).
I think Montreal has a structural weakness here and hopefully Hughes can figure that out.
Suzuki, Texier, Slaf, Dach all have the ability to use their strength to play middle ice. But as you say, that has been common in these games. Heavy defense. Heavy forecheck

The boys lost every puck battle but 6. All 6 resulted in goals. Sens goalie was bad.

Habs were badly outworked all game - frustratingly so.
Montembault is not at fault for most goals.
Ottawa’s goalie stunk
I hope we win in OT
Agree on all points.
Lost 50 50 pucks were terrible. Need puck battle practice.

Josh Anderson played an ok game tonight.

Another brutal 2nd period… this team needs a goaltender but it also needs to tighten up team defense..
they remind me of the oilers from 8 or 9 years ago… tons of talent but couldn’t play D to save their lives… never went anywhere.
Surprises me with evans, guhle back and danault added that team defense is still trash.
-
Lost a lot of 50 50 pucks tonight.

Boys need a bag skate. No presence vs detroit, buffalo, or ottawa

TEN shots in two periods ... 😡
Yes. I saw i screwed that up.

Non call on slaf was shit. But 10 shots per period is pathetic.

Buffalo outplayed them all night.
