bar Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 It's not my turn for the GDT so I'll wait to see if Brian wants to risk the streak and let me do the GDT....while you're here...take a look at the the chief de canadiens (haha is this anywheres even close to correct? My french is terrible) when he was a player: Quote
BCHabnut Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 Cunney was a fiesty guy. I just watched half a dozen fights with him. Fun. Go habs Go. Let's win this Quote
JoeLassister Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 Prof Caron died today. Another source of motivation for the Blues (and the Habs) as Caron was also with the Habs for many years. Quote
JMMR Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 I hate it when this teams Wins when I would prefer they lose and lose when I prefer they win. I still believe they can not get in this season. I want t top 3 pick so badly. I wont CHEER for them to lose but I will not get upset if they do. Quote
DON Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 I hate it when this teams Wins when I would prefer they lose and lose when I prefer they win. I still believe they can not get in this season. I want t top 3 pick so badly. I wont CHEER for them to lose but I will not get upset if they do. Only way the Habs get a top 3 pick, is by trading Subban,/Pacioretty to Columbus or Ducks, or if Carey said screw this hockey crap and became a full time cowboy tomorrow. But like you, i have tossed in the towel for this season and am looking towards developing youngsters and next fall. But am also not adverse to a crazy winning streak and all the pieces finally coming togeather and all the stars somehow aligning for next 3 months, as unlikely as that might be. 1 Quote
dlbalr Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 We'll use this as the GDT. I've been in bed all day sick so I haven't the time or the energy to put a GDT together. I'll get the next one hopefully. Quote
brobin Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Nice to see some applause for Halak when he handled the puck... I am glad to see his season coming together with the new coach. Hopefully we get a good game tonight with some great goaltending both ways. Quote
brobin Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 wow.. Pleks vs Halak.. first point to Halak.. nice moves by both of them.. Quote
brobin Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Nice plays by emelin and great desperation save by Price... Habs look a bit brain dead but some good moments so far. Quote
Commandant Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Habs look like shit this period. No transition. Quote
Helmethead Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 No coverage of the game here in Connecticut. Any Halak stop signs in the stands?? Quote
JMMR Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Blues controlling the play early. No coverage of the game here in Connecticut. Any Halak stop signs in the stands?? More French flags. Quote
hab29RETIRED Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Blues controlling the play early. Doesn't look like we can stop their big forwards. Quote
Commandant Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 I haven't had a big issue with our defence containing them,, they only had one or two scoring chances despite lots of shots and possession. We are keeping them outside. Its when we get the puck, we can't make a pass and every attempt just ends up on the blues sticks in the neutral zone or their own end. We can't connect on any breakouts. Quote
Commandant Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Seriously did we connect on one pass? Quote
brobin Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Habs are playing like they are just trying to keep them from scoring. It reminds me of that playoff series with Washington.. What is sad is the pregame comments from RC about having to go hard to the net... well, first you need to get in their end... Quote
BCHabnut Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 St. Louis is playing awesome! Their forecheck is relentless. Quote
dlbalr Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 I think the coaching staff needs to make an adjustment to the breakout plan, St. Louis' forecheck is more aggressive than a typical trap-formation that Hitchcock generally uses with his teams. Short passes should be the key rather than the long breakout ones we've seen a lot more of lately. The Habs had 9 giveaways in the period...there are games where they don't have that many. Quote
TurdBurglar Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Was it just the camera angle or did Oshie check DIaz in the head? Quote
brobin Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 I tell you what.. PK wants to win this for Price... Quote
BCHabnut Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 There is a whole lot of clutch and grab going on by St Louis. Finally a call! Quote
