DON Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 Win one for the turtleneck's 39th birthday boys! Team stats favour the Ducks, but they have actually given up more goals. I assume the Habs 3rd stringer will be in nets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Chicoutimi Cucumber Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 It’s the second night of a back-to-back, so excuses are baked-in…our only hope is that the Ducks also blow chunks. They’ve lost 6 in a row, so the Habs are just what the doctor ordered for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hockeyrealist Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 Point night for the Ducks! reverse psychology Sunday! Intriguing plot line: Will Caufield shine or be outshined by Zegras? Thinking our guy rises to the occasion, pots two goals and finally opens the floodgates to his first of many 30+ goal seasons! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xXx..CK..xXx Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 Hoffman’s been a bright spot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir_Boagalott Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 Well they've already exchanged PP goals. Nice pass by Wideman and Hoffman with the blast. Those 2 are doing alright offensively anyway. Hoffman will be the Habs highest scorer this year and his offense is really the only positive of this year. Oh no - Paquette with a 5 min major penalty.

Sir_Boagalott Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 Well, Montembeault could have saved the 1st goal, but he had no chance on the 2nd. The Habs better kill the rest of this penalty. D'oh, Lehks wth was that? When killing a 5 min major it is a terrible time to take a dumb ass penalty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides, Lettieri didn't shoot it to the empty net, he nearly hit Montembeault in the process. Not a smart hit from Paquette. You're already playing with an injured player in the lineup in Evans, why go take a run at a guy that he should have known was going to get him tossed?

Hmm, I'll have to see that goal again because I thought it went straight in. My point was mainly that Lettieri was left wide open, and somebody should have been helping Montembeault out by covering that area. It wasn't a smart hit by Paquette, but there have been way worse hits that haven't been called or the player getting ejected. btw, do you still think Flor wants Montembeault back? The Habs might have done them a favour by taking him off waivers. I'm getting the impression he will end up in Laval when the Habs eventually waive him.

I do think Florida will take Montembeault back. They only have three goalies under contract which is definitely on the low side. They didn't make a move to replace him so they're banking on getting him back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlbalr Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 Nice to see Evans get one to make up for some of their missed opportunities in the second half of the period. There was at least some life over the last 10 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir_Boagalott Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 It was good to see Evans get his 1st goal and Petry get his 1st assist. Now its time for Suzuki or Caufield to get a goal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GHT120 Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 Well ... 5 Home games coming up ... all spaced out by at least a day (one has two) ... unless Price is coming back, I expect Allen gets all 5 ... then Montembeault gets the first road game in Detroit and Allen takes the second of the back-to-backs the next day in Boston.
