tomh009 Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 Time for Captain Kirk to make some changes for the second period, to get things happening. He has the last change and he should be able to take advantage of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commandant Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 I'm not liking the reffing. They called stuff against montreal last period but not calling the same trips on the Flyers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commandant Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 Look at Kotkaniemi outskating two Flyers D to that loose puck. The kid clearly did a lot of work on his skating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Chicoutimi Cucumber Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 Deflection, but still...a bad goal. This is not a game (or series) in which the Habs look to be able to recover from one bad goal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dlbalr Posted August 18, 2020 Author Share Posted August 18, 2020 I know there's a lower XG% on point shots but right now, get the puck to the point and let Weber/Petry/Kulak/Chiarot fire. Philly is collapsing everything down low and killing everything in the process. Look at those last couple of minutes - their best chances came off the point shots and the ensuing bounces. Driving the outside and trying to pass it through five players to get a shot isn't working. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too many pluggers, not enough snipers. Basically unless a team is dumb enough to get into a track meet with us, Carey has to pitch a shutout to have any chance to win.

illWill Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 What a frustrating last 5 periods, nothing but missed nets and hitting posts. I expect the Habs to come out flying this period, they aren't the most talented team but they never give up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had said this in another post we have no D that can move the puck up and set up plays. Really miss Markov back their makes you really appreciate him more and more.

Once Philly starts taking the point shot more seriously it might then open up deeper in the zone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
