han_dyl Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 (edited) Komisarek brutal on that play. Perfect deflection, not much Price could do on that one, yet he still gets the Bronx cheer from the fans the next time he touches the puck. Hopefully it doesn't deflate the Habs too much. If they keep the first period pace up for the rest of the game, we will win, no contest. Edited April 20, 2009 by han_dyl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackp Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 What the hell. Absolute garbage luck. What are the odds that Kessel was there, and able to get a stick on it. ######! :puke: As I've said in the other thread, 6 shots 1 goal, save percentage just under .850. Once, just ONCE, Carey make a spectacular save when the game is still on the line. Anyone notice a couple of Habs shaking their heads on the bench? In most games, there are going to be 9 - 10 glorious scoring opportunities. The goalie has to stop most of them... if he's a NHL goalie that is. Thomas might have let in a weak one on Higgins but he's already stopped 3 great scoring opportunities. Price has stopped *1* and let the other one in. - Jack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easy Ryder Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 Why does every goal deserves a goat ? The guy whos scores deserves the credit. Higgins shot was good enough to go in good effort by Metropolit there to distract defense and goalie. Kessel acted on instinct to deflect that puck. A fraction of a second and he put the stick for deflection. Hope to see similar action in period 2, it's a fun game to watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Habsfan Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 Yep, he is now square in the crosshairs for a fanbase who will blame him. For the situation, this was a bad call. Amazing that a 21 year old kid will go down in flames in a series that pits the 8 against a 1. You seem to forget that when Carey played a bad series against the Flyers last year, the fans kept on cheering him even in the last minutes of the 5th and final game of the series. Just because a few idiots may have booed him, the vast majority of the fans are behind him! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackp Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 ... Perfect deflection, not much Price could do on that one, ... He could have made a great reaction save. This one wasn't even as hard as the one Halak stopped early in the 3rd period in Boston. (Cross-crease pass that Halak was spectacular on.) You don't win in the playoffs without *great* goaltending. We're not even getting mediocre goaltending... We have *no chance* with this kind of goaltending. And when the Bruins get their next one (and there will be a next one), the team will completely deflate. (Remember the last game against Philly last year - we had a great start - and then the sieve took over.) I guess getting Price's confidence back and vindicating a bad draft pick are more important than winning a playoff series... - Jack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brobin Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 the vast majority of the fans are behind him! So are the vast majority of pucks... :lol: Sorry, couldn't help it. I am pulling for the kid tonight... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
habs rule Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 I've got a good feeling about this game but we need the seventh man. the 8th and 9th wouldn't hurt either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

han_dyl Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 And 3 habs standing in front of the net with their thumbs up their asses, leaving Thornton all alone. But yerah it would have been nice to see pirice kick that one out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JLP Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 meh our PP is all about slooowing things own, then surprising the opponent with a shot. we can't roll that way in the playoffs against boston . . . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
