Machine of Loving Grace Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 I'm guessing a bad night. We had a three game winning streak prior. The team is desperate for reinforcements to arrive. I expect a win against the Jets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyhasbeen Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 That was clearly a case of trying to sit on a lead. It doesn't work. Don't try it again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They might have been sitting a little but the Flyers were on fire. They wanted the win badly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Chicoutimi Cucumber Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Losing Pleks is potentially huge - worse than losing MaxPac - and Eller's -4 last night suggests that he was not prepared to step into the breach. We'd better hope that Plekanec recovers soon, and that he recovers fully. His game is so built on speed that he could well struggle if his groin isn't at 100%, and that would be a grievous problem in the playoffs.

Eller actually looked good until it collapsed with 5 minutes left. I think the bulk of the work will be shared between him and Halpern. Halpern seems to still have decent energy left.

xXx..CK..xXx Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Yes, you are definitely in the minority. They had 17 total shots against a bottom feeder with only 2 of there regular 6 defenseman in the game. The habs just laid an egg. I didn't even se them really working hard, the didn't skate. The first was a decenet period. Hopefully it was just a bad night. If they think games will get easier they are sadly mistaken. All points and games for the habs are meaningfull, especiaslly if they want home ice. Might as well call up Kristo, see what he can do a for a couple of games. Put him ont eh ing with Prust and Eller. Put Galchenyuk with Ryder and Gionta, see what happens. I watched the game in two different segments so I'll admit it probably threw my judgement off a little bit but in the first period, the flyers barely got out of their zone. I felt like it was a period we actually dominated. The next two periods were not as good but like people have said the flyers were a desperate team and the game was still 50/50. Outshot or not, at least 3 of their goals went off our defenseman and another was an empty netter. I'm not saying that I'd be happy with the habs continuing to play the way they did, but in my opinion, (other than the lack of intensity late in the third) the habs have played a few games like yesterday's... They've just managed to walk away with a win. Perhaps my opinion is a little different because I watched the away broadcast and the announcers spent more than half the game praising the habs.
