He had some decent moments at the beginning of the year where he was playing with speed and not being completely invisible but that hasn't been the case over the past few weeks. I was hoping Julien had learned a lesson from yesterday that Petry can't QB the top power play unit. He's not enough of a shooting threat and the puck seems to stop on his stick. The way Morrow is shooting right now, I'd be inclined to try him in that spot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dlbalr Posted November 23, 2017 Author Share Posted November 23, 2017 Anyone else not thrilled with how much running around Subban's doing tonight? He looks completely disinterested in playing and instead is just head-hunting and hacking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Link67 Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 Man I got to say, our D looks like an unstable mess without Weber's presence. Everyone looks like they are in over their heads and overextended on their capabilities, bit of an eye opener really, I mean I had a feeling this D would look like a mess without him, but man do they look like a mess without him.

I saw him and Gallagher going at it, but pretty normal for the showboat guy he is.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I said earlier.... Petry is ideally a 3, we are asking him to be a 2 and that is already causing issues. Take out the #1 and ask him to be a #1 and its trouble. Now Alzner who is a 4/5 is asked to be a 2. Benn who should be a 5/6, is asked to be a 3. ETC...... Everyone is being asked to do more than they can.

sim.on Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 Bad penalty by Drouin. Very Habesque to allow the goal so close to the end of the period. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm a Subban stan ... he could shit on my head and I'd thank him for the hat. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Habber Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 Bad bad penalty by Drouin. His selfish play he demonstrated in tampa is now happening here in Montreal. Tampa didn't put up with it but Montreal will. I'd take Sergachev over Drouin any day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCHabnut Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 I agree with dlbalr. PK did nothing until that rush. In fact the run he took 5 seconds before the goal, probably contributed to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commandant Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 Drouin being selfish? If anything he's a guy who isn't selfish enough on the ice. He passes a bit too much and needs to shoot more. Yes thats a bad penalty, but claiming he's been a selfish player on the ice in his career? I don't know what you've watched. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When was the last time you saw a Canadiens d-man rush the puck and create a goal like that? That's the kind of hockey I want to watch, not a bunch of plumbers that can't rush, can't make perfect first passes to clear the zone and spring odd man rushes, ect.

He is unselfish to the point it is a detriment...his recent insistence on trying to force passes through the skates of defending players has to stop. Skate with it, or throw it on net more kid...please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlbalr Posted November 23, 2017 Author Share Posted November 23, 2017 It hasn't been pretty from Niemi but he has got the job done so far. I've been impressed with Nashville's willingness to attack with speed and the pace of their game in general. Montreal needs to take note of that - they've played like that at times this season and good things have happened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bad was stepping up on the forward for a hit, leading to everyone being out of position and benn scoring Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
