Wamsley01 Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 Well still over 3 minutes to kill on that Komisarek penalty that will be huge. Like I said, like clockwork. In control, then take 2 penalties giving them a 5 on 3 and they have to kill off a double minor to start the period. They rarely just coast to a 4-0 victory. More often than not they will make us all sweat with a 5-3 win into an empty net. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wamsley01 Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 (edited) This is one of those games where the shots are not indicative of the play. Shit there goes the shutout Edited November 22, 2007 by Wamsley01 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KoZed Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 That was a weird goal allowed by Huet. He didnt do a butterfly lateral movement. His right pad was up in the air... Habs are really playing soft in their zone now... Gotta be tired after all those PKs to start the 3rd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMMR Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 That goal was Huet's fault why would he try that stupid kick? Oh well. Great win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KoZed Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 Nice clean win. The kinda win Ottawa got on us in the last game. Make the opposition pay with opportunistic goals. Good to see Begin get 2 goals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wamsley01 Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 Those are the type of wins that get me excited about this team, but I continue to rail in my enthusiasm. I did not expect that good of an effort tonight, but they have continually surprised me this year. Good rebound, let's sweep Buffalo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MFT77 Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 Nice, gritty road win. Good PK. Soldier-like effort tonite. 2 points is 2 points. Especially how the Islanders have started the season. Too bad Huet couldn't hold the shutout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cataclaw Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 Wow, this game sure seems to have passed under the radar. 5 pages only, smallest game thread ever? Shame too, considering the favorable outcome. 4-1! Great job guys. Must be nice for Higgins to score in front of family and friends! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyhasbeen Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 I believe that will move us to above 83% PK and from 16th to about 10th. Few more games like this and we can top the league in that stat again too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bacchus Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 Good game boys! Too bad the team didn't help Huet with the shutout late in the game. Way to go Begin and Huet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xXx..CK..xXx Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 I can't believe I did not start Higgins in my hockey pool.

Habsfan Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 I knew Huet would come out strong after a so so performance vs the Senators. Great game by the boys tonight! Nice to see higgins score on the road...it was almost a given that he would score. he has 7 goals in 6 games vs the Islanders in his career! I can't say that anyone played bad. overall solid effort by teh boys, even though they slowed down a bit in third, but with a 4 goal lead who can blame them!? Let's go to buffalo and kick some sabre ass!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brobin Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 Good solid game. Huet was awesome (I can't believe someone would bitch about a goal on a cross slot pass going in). 45 shots, 44 saves. Begin was hot tonight for sure, good to see. Sweet move by Higgins on that goal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sbhatt Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 A much-needed win...setting up another important game against the Sabres. Great to see Begin score twice, and Higgins send the friends&family home happy. Kovy needs a goal next game though...I don't want him to fall off of pace for 40.

The Chicoutimi Cucumber Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 I didn't see the game. But the SOG are worrisome given that the team was supposed to recommit itself to defence tonight. Can anyone who actually saw the game explain that - ?

Wamsley01 Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 (edited) I didn't see the game. But the SOG are worrisome given that the team was supposed to recommit itself to defence tonight. Can anyone who actually saw the game explain that - ? Habs got up 4-0 and the shots were fairly even. Even though the Isles had close to 30 shots they didn't really have a lot of scoring chances through 2. Huet made a couple of big saves when they were up 1-0. At the end of the second period with the Habs up 4-0 the Isles had a 5-3 and Komi got a double minor for high sticking. The third was a bunch of Isles PPs and the Habs sitting on their huge lead. Nothing to be worried about. A strong game. More shots but a lot better effort than the Ottawa game.
