  1. My god I love Suzuki Here is hoping he can pull the Habs back from a 3-1 series deficit like he did in Guelph
  2. I think I am going to dig out my Habs foam finger I bought at the Bell Center for Game 6 against the Penguins in 2010 for good luck. I'm sure it still reeks of beer and is disgusting, but I don't mind feeling like a moron sitting at home with it on during this game if it helps at all.
  3. Don't forget AV with his quote about how it was a hockey play, Gallagher got up and was talking, and that it isn't Niskanens fault he is taller than him. I feel a rage I haven't felt from hockey since I tried to take my skate off and stab a guy. Edit: I didn't actually do that, it is a Happy Gilmore reference
  4. What a read and then dish by Drouin to find Suzuki for the game winner. So satisfying to see a goal there rather than hitting a post or missing wide
  5. No matter the penalties, I like the way Kotkaniemi is playing. That was not a major
  6. I agree, his expectations from some of the fan base are to carry the offense but he is who he is, a top 6 forward with glimpses of being elite and also garbage. He is paid accordingly, so it shouldn't be an issue. If we want to trash Bergevin for that trade then so be it, but i think the chance he would be closer to a point per game player was worth it at the time.
  7. He averages 49 points per 82 game season for his career and is paid 5.5m per year and that seems about right to me. The only concern I had about the trade and still have is not that Sergachev is necessarily better, but that we traded a defenseman for a winger. But I was and am still hopeful he can play more consistently.
  8. I guess all it takes is a couple losses to get the boo birds all fired up. It's easy to dump on the Drouin trade since he hasn't produced in these playoffs so far, but keep in mind that half the team has gone silent on the score sheet. Drouin was our best forward to start the year before he got injured. And I don't see how it was such a terrible trade at the time when we acquired a 3rd overall pick who just came off a 53 point season in 73 games as a 21/22 year old. I'd love to see Yzerman's reaction when Habs29 offers up a 2nd round pick for him like he suggested.
  9. Games 1 and 3 could have went either way, game 2 was all Habs and I'll give game 4 to Philly. So at worst it is 3-1 Philly, could be 3-1 Habs, but should be 2-2 IMO.
  10. I think overall this series has been evenly matched, with Philly up in the series due to puck luck. That being said, it is a familiar story line with the Habs where we get scoring opportunities but fail to capitalize on them.
  11. Fun facts Philly is the first team in history to lead a 7 game series after 4 games while scoring only 5 goals. The Habs have scored 6 goals to Philly's 5, but are down 3-1
  12. I dont know why you quoted me, that has nothing to do with missed nets, posts hit, or how they dont give up
  13. What a frustrating last 5 periods, nothing but missed nets and hitting posts. I expect the Habs to come out flying this period, they aren't the most talented team but they never give up.
  14. And we are down 2-1 in the series. Unbelievable
  15. Apparently Chris Lee is reffing tonight, can't wait to punch a hole in my wall
  16. I like our Hart better than their Hart Not sure of any line up changes at the moment, had to post now since I won't have a chance later on today. I like to put Toronto in the title because it is absolutely amazing that the Habs are playing playoff hockey in Toronto and the Leafs are not. Side note: Carey Price turns 33 today Other side note: LET'S GO!
  17. I noticed that as well, seems like he is pretty pissed about that. Love the way they played but hopefully this wasn't something to fire up the Flyers.
  18. As per tradition, I will continue until we lose! So hopefully that is sometime in 2021
