BCHabnut Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 The team needs to cling to this islanders match up. Would rather play them than Tampa Boston or Toronto. Need a W here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Habopotamus Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Armia's forecheck is solid, but he has low offensive instincts... I honestly think Pecca would be better suited in that 3 spot, atleast for the time being. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xXx..CK..xXx Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 I have a good feeling about this upcoming power play. It could be because it hasn't started yet though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trizzak Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 I watched them set up the same play on that powerplay twice and I still don't know what the end result is supposed to be. Looks like a lot of passing to easily set up a blocked shot. Why not start working down low, try to create some chaos in front of the net, and maybe... just maybe... Weber might get open for a shot.

xXx..CK..xXx Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 I say just feed it to Weber repeatedly and let the other team's forwards, defensemen and goaltenders suffer.... The consequences. Until they start moving out of the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't even look like Weber Petry has played more than him for three straight games. I don't think that's a coincidence. 12 minutes ago, sbhatt said: Lehkonen looks useless out there. I was hoping he would have been moved today. He had probably their best chance of the period shorthanded. I thought he was alright. I suspect he's valued a whole lot higher in the organization than you think; I don't think they have any interest at all in moving him anytime soon.

He seems like an anchor that drags down KK's production far too often...I'd like to see a better shooter on the kid's wing. If he stays on line 4, that's better...but there again I'd like to see a more physical player on the 4th line. I just don't see where he fits.

Scott462 Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 Weber looks like he’s really struggling. Hopefully they can turn it around but it looks like they are still reeling from Saturday nights loss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 Getting shut out by the lowly devils in the midst of a playoff push. Pathetic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlbalr Posted February 26, 2019 Author Share Posted February 26, 2019 Aside from the whole not scoring a goal while getting scored on part of the period, that wasn't a bad road period from the Habs. Unfortunately, everything just looks rushed - they looked that way against Toronto as well at the end of the game; instead of showing some poise, they're quickly getting rid of it and the timing is just off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
