  1. Just watched the game once again this morning. Three things standout, 1) Danault had a great all around game 14:48 min - 7/12 58%- +3 - 2pts. But most important his aggressive forecheck caused numerous turnovers and two great elite passes that ended up as goals. 2) all 6 Ds had a great solid almost flawless game. Weber was 6th in ice time with 18:21min which is perfect for long term success and Kulak 20:56/Romo20:36 paring lead with most ice minutes, a result of the coach’s confidence in the two.  3) Price had a very good solid game, did not have to make high wheel saves which indicates to me he was always in position, square to the puck and most important very confident. 
     

    Great all around game effort from the boys! a little taste once again on what we’re capable of and what we where like on the first 10 games of the season.

  2. Price always warms up mid season and finishes strong at end season carry over into playoffs, That’s where we’re at now. I’m also expecting a solid game tonight and moving forward from Price. I’m sure he’s feeling a little guilt on Waite’s firing and will take this to heart.

    The FW configuration doesn’t interest me much; in fact I think that Armia line could be great, especially the way Drouin is playing hot right now.  

     

    The hypnotic fascination of the status quo on the blueline is what baffles me. The D has been a disaster, and yet it remains unchanged game after game...


    I’m assuming Dom is stuck for now on how well the D looked for the first 10 games this season. There was buzzing talk around the league on how Montreal was in the running for top 3-5 D core in the league. If we can get the forwards back on track with a fast tempo, aggressive offence, good solid goaltending from both price/Allen the D will follow suite. Just thinking there not ready to give up on current d parings.

    I wouldn’t give Dom so much credit on Waite’s firing, it would undermine him with the team if he was to throw Stephane under the bus one week into the job 


    I don’t look at it as Dom undermining or throwing anyone under the bus. More of Dom relating a serious conversation with his boss. And like I mentioned this could of been between goalie and coach.. berg is taking the so called bullet here.. 

     

    just a thought... there has to be more here with the timing during the season and the timing during the game..

  5. I was surprised but do like the move. Price has not been a great goalie for past 3 years now ( besides bubble playoff mini run). This is a so called fresh start and perhaps new messages for price (retooling his game again). Sean Burke is one of the best in this business. 
     

    I’m thinking when Dom took over as head coach he had a heart to heart chat with Carey and perhaps in that conversation both realized the relationship between Carey and Waite was no longer on the same page and a change was due. This was a final decision made between Dom and Berg! 

  6. I would of chosen Allen tonight but I do understand going with price. He is the biggest part of this team for success now, moving forward and we need to get him dial in sooner then later. Him sitting on the bench to long will add to his lack of confidence and ramp up this circus with media negatively to another level..

     

    Absolutely a must win tonight. Lol
