Neech Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 Beck makes his surprise debut, Habs lineup back to 12 forwards and 6 defensemen. Wideman out, Kovacevic back in while Edmundson nurses his injury. Hoping for a fun game and 0 points in the standings. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Chicoutimi Cucumber Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 Yeah, good thread 👍 I like the non-linear thinking. I hate the Senators organization. They're not a respected-yet-despised rival like the Bruins; nor are they evil incarnate like Toronto. They're a third-rate POS franchise, unworthy of our attention, that always gets cranked up for games against us and so manages to be a pain in the ass. Kind of like the Hartford Whalers used to be, minus the cool uniform and excellent name. A distant third on my "hated teams" list, but definitely on it.

Plus, its where the Habs are at - they're injured and needed to call him up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dlbalr Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 A pretty even first period and a pretty quick one at that; there were nine whistles in the opening 20 minutes. Beck hasn't looked out of place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DON Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 At least Beck did fine. Wonder if he dresses in his OHL game tomorrow? Anyways, great to see him get the experience, aside from the shutout. Dach still had some nice work out there and stripped Sens of a few pucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, it could have easily been 3-3 at that point. 2 hours ago, The Chicoutimi Cucumber said: Sigh. One thing this team is going to need to solve is to stop taking so many penalties. They definitely take a lot of penalties, but I find their bigger issue is making a ton of poor puck choices when in the o-zone. ex: in the 1st period a Hab was in the middle of the ice and passed to the right side and that player really had no shot. The guy on the right side had a perfect passing lane to a wide open guy on the far side who would have had a great shot. However, the 1 with the puck didnt notice and took a low chance shot. Later on when WiFi was in the middle of the ice he did similar and passed off to the side vs shoot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commandant Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 At 5v5 The Dach line with Hoffman and Dadonov played really well. Kovacevic, Matheson, Harris, and Barron also did well. Decent enough night from Anderson and Suzuki and Pitlick though not as good as Dach's line. 3rd and 4th lines, and Savard Xhekaj pair got caved in. Special teams was poor and team took too many penalties which was the biggest issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
