I don't know if anyone else noticed it in the Wings game, but it was certainly evident then. There's far too little passing TO people and far too much passing AT people. It seems like if one guys sees another guy out of the corner of his eye, he'll attempt to make a pass, whether they're open or not.

i don't know if your observation is correct but, in any case, i've always found 'blind passes' a frustrating thing to watch... it smells of a rushed play and one that simply turns the puck over to the other team... :angry::angry::angry:

GO :hlogo: GO!

Our guys are just so damn tight out there. Carbo should tell them to forget about trying to score pretty goals...just hit everything that moves, and throw shots from anywhere at the net while the other two forwards crash it. This team needs to get ugly for awhile...at both ends of the ice.

You know the one thing about Van that I don't get - all these green environmental types who vote for the Green party and then drive some massive SUV from suburbs to work everyday.

how true!

Now lets all jump in our two down winter beaters.. and ram all those SUV's. That'll teach em!

GO HABS GO!

Well when you need 30 acres of trees to build your massive cabin at the top of a mountain sometimes you just want to treat yourself to a viehicle that gets 3 endangered animals per kilometre.

Good grief. Reading half this stuff you'd think the game was already over. They may very well lose, but if they do manage to win, I hope those of you who have written this one off can look back at the thread and admit a very premature 'whoops'.

At least where I come from, one period does not a game make.

EDIT: And now I know why I usually don't bother with game threads.

re-EDIT: Because I can't spell edit.

The game is by no means over, but there's just nothing going on that's different from the Wings game and the Sens game. And that's what most of us are pissed about. Carbonneau has mixed the lines up, but the effort isn't changing with it.

Charged game thread tonight.

Lots of "not a real habs fan" talk (against Pierre, etc)

Lots of negativity in general, etc.

Come on people. Keep your chins up, we'll get through this!

(Oh and Pierre, sorry to disapoint, but Habs will win this one.)

actually I'm not joking. A good clean hit can change momentum and give a play that extra piece to score.
