When was the last time we were ahead 7-0? I can’t even remember. It feels soooooooo hood not having to worry about them blowing the lead and just hope that more players will end slumps.

sbhatt Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 Unfortunate that a penalty cost Carey the shutout, but still...keep it to 1 and it's still a strong statistical night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prime Minister Koivu Posted March 7, 2021 Author Share Posted March 7, 2021 Great way to kick off a western road trip. Im hoping we do similar to Vancouver on Monday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alfredoh2009 Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 That was fun, like postes earlier it was nice to be able to sit back and enjoy I hope they continue to play like this: F support of the Ds on zone exits, driving the net and retrieving pucks 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neech Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 One of those games where everything seemed to go our way and we got all the bounces. Great to see the Danault line get going and Price solid. Hopefully we keep it going against a Vancouver team that's surely in better form than when we saw them last. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Chicoutimi Cucumber Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 Well, that was satisfactory, LOL. A good slump-buster of a game from a team that was playing better but not really getting rewarded. One key was that they finally didn’t take a bunch of stupid penalties. Another key was the KK line. I’ve been saying for a while that the kid is rounding into form, and it’s great that Ducharme is rewarding him. Keep those guys together! A third key is that the Danault line ***FINALLY*** woke up. They were winning puck battles, being creative, being dynamic, getting stuff done. It wasn’t just Gally any more floundering around wondering where his linemates are. If they can build on that, it’s big. Price looked quite Price-like except for that one sloppy rebound. The only thing is, that might be the worst game I’ve seen Romanov play. Didn’t hurt us (obviously), but geez, it seemed like every decision he made with the puck was terrible. (Side note: am I the only one who enjoys seeing Beaulieu floundering? I really think WPG’s extensive use of him is a sign of their lack of blueline depth rather than N8 the Great having ‘found a home,’ as Gary Galley said).

Trizzak Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 6 game road trip now (2 vs Vancouver, 2 vs Calgary, 2 vs Winnipeg.) I'll be happy if they take 2 points from each series, honestly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prime Minister Koivu Posted March 7, 2021 Author Share Posted March 7, 2021 Im happy for Price the most. He was really on his game. I still think Weber needs a partner with wheels. He made some good plays but he also displayed his incredible slowness. I really hope we can destroy Vancouver again and maybe we can take advantage of Calgary and their old school coach Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DON Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 Surely Danault has to score very soon, if keep that line together. Suzuki quiet again, 4gm point streak, on 61pt pace (for 82gm) and seems to be avoiding the sophomore slump. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suzuki quiet again, 4gm point streak, on 61pt pace (for 82gm) and seems to be avoiding the sophomore slump. That line and the Kotkaniemi line were both fantastic last night. They should certainly be kept together. Danault will break the goose egg for sure if they keep up the momentum, but the main thing is that he was very offensively involved, getting assists and participating. That does leave Suzuki with Drouin and Armia. Not optimal, and that’s a trio I’d be willing to tinker with; but Drouin has playing well and Armia is solid, so Suzy should be able to operate reasonably well with those two.

I don't wish Beaulieu ill as such, but his inability to develop his obvious physical skills into a solid NHL game in his 5 years with the Habs was so frustrating that it does leave me not unhappy to see he hasn't really fixed himself. Much as I dislike Gary Galley, I also think Nate has found a home in Winnipeg ... but it is as a third pairing defenceman ... or, in other words, that home has a short-term lease Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
