Toffoli seems to be fairly defensive minded.  He was just out of position (like he often is), but he generally looks around, then figures it out and starts going to where he should be, and as he arrives there something happens but he's there to stop it.  I've seen him do that numerous times.

He is also the best Habs forward tonight.  The puck is on his stick a lot so far.

These guys are an embarrassment. 

 

12 goals in the last 8 games. 

 

 

 

 

But we don't need to try Caufield.  We just have to keep running Jonathan f**king '2 goals' Drouin out there....he's going to break out of his slump and start lighting it up any day now...you'll see!   If this is truly an issue of cap management only, Bergevin and his whole team should be shown the door.  Pathetic.

The players hung Allen out to dry. Every season this "leadership" group of "character" guys just end up playing like a bunch of losers. How do this many 20 goal scorers forget how to find the back of the net all at once?

Can we just friggin fire friggin everyone friggin now??? That was friggin pathetic!!! 

 

they should just sit at least 5 players next game. I know we can’t send anyone without waivers. Just sit the 5 worst players tonight - lots of friggin bums to choose from!! Punish the rest of the friggin team by playing a reduced lineup!! If DD can’t motivate these bums and doesn’t have any flexibility to make lineup changes, just friggin punish the bums! That third period and end of second was pathetic.  When you see an upper talented player like McDavid working his ass off almost every shift l, compared to the half ass lazy effort by our guys???? They SHOULD be working twice as hard, it just really pisses me off. Allen made some great saves to keep them in it, but that was a pathetic effort in front of him. Where the hell is the leadership on this team??? If mountain man can’t be a reliable top 4, or at this stage even a reliable top 6, and is providing zero leadership, than what the hell is he being paid close to $8m for????? 

and what is it with the continuous stupid penalties?????

What is wrong with these group of guys? How can you have the same results every year? 

It's time to blow up this core group of players. It's not going to be another retool so Price and Weber WONT be traded but it's time to say goodbye to Danault, Tatar, Drouin, lehkonen, Byron, Kulak Chiarot, Armia.

Build the team around Caufield, Suzuki, Anderson, Kotkaniemi, Toffoli , Gallagher, Romanov, Weber, Price, Petry, Poehling, Edmundson.  Bring in some new blood to fill around these guys.

   Bergevin has wasted the prime of Price and the usefulness of what Weber brings by not building a team around them 4 years ago.  The window has closed for this core group of players.

Team played well for 2 periods.  Seemed to run out of legs in the third.

 

3 games in 4 nights starting in montreal and ending up in edmonton can do that.


Certainly true however we can’t score and haven’t scored at a good pace for weeks and when was the last game where we played hard for 3 full periods? 
 

We need to clean house and try again. This team stinks

Well it is 3 in 4 most of the time here in. Better get used to it. Waive Byron again and play Cole. He can't do worse. 

 

Sure it is.  But in most cases you will have two tired teams.  Not one that travelled from Montreal to Edmonton the day before.
