Neech Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 Let the regulation losses continue. And more points for Captain Nick! Guhle and Barron both out of the lineup with UBI's. New addition Allard makes his debut, playing his second NHL game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

habscout Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 I lost respect for Craig Button. His "mock draft" has the Habs picking two left wingers, Colby Barlow and Eduard Sale. I doubt Button has looked at their depth chart lately, because this team has a much bigger need at center and right winger, over the left side. Also, Craig must have forgot that Slavkovsky is the left winger they drafted first overall last summer. I don't have anything against these two players, but with so many good centers at the top half of this draft, I would seriously question Hughes judgment if he used both of his picks to take two left wingers. Also, Button is terrible as a colour man during this game. Too many times, he interjects to talk about something unrelated or little related to this game while the play is in action. One time the guy calling the game had to interject to quickly describe a scoring chance. I used to think Pierre Mcguire was a terrible colour man for the Habs, but Button now has risen past him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neech Posted March 6 Author Share Posted March 6 Habs showing some life after getting down 3. Hopefully we can get some stat padding going this game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DON Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 Not any positive stats to speak of...only 5 shots by Vegas in the 2nd i suppose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neech Posted March 6 Author Share Posted March 6 Ok, that's enough stat padding. Belzile and Pezz seem like best buddies, fun to see them succeed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never thought much of Button, but in fairness, he may just be applying the BPA principle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
habscout Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 BPA fits a team when they have depth, but that's not the case in a rebuilding Montreal. I give this team credit for rallying back to make this game 4-3. They made it exciting to watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neech Posted March 6 Author Share Posted March 6 Perfect result! Hoffman nearly tied it up in the final minute but the hockey gods kept it out. Matheson looks like he has 50-point potential in a healthy lineup, he was our best player today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir_Boagalott Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 I still think RHP is the real deal. He just seems to constantly move around and has a knack for being in the right spots at the right times. In the last game right before Drouin scored I was expecting him to score. I wasn't surprised to see him get 1 tonight. Gurianov was somewhat quiet tonight, but I was thinking he'd be the 1 to get the tying goal that never happened. It was too bad that he wasn't able to keep that puck out, that was a great attempt.

Also its relatively easy to convert LW into a RW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alfredoh2009 Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 (edited) Good summary, happy to see something positive on Drouin. The #Habs put up a spirited comeback effort on Sunday in Vegas but it wasn't enough as they fell 4-3: https://t.co/5WPA3UIEJt — HabsWorld.net (@habsworld_net) March 6, 2023 Tierney is underwhelming, place holder if Evans ever comes back from injury (is he out for the season?) Allen fought hard but the give aways and missed D coverings we’re too much I like the Laval kids, Ylonen had a strong game Edited March 6 by alfredoh2009 Adding link to article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCHabnut Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 I didn't see the game, but was listening. If Kovacevic hit was clean and Martinez made him fight, shouldn't there have been a penalty for Instigating? The league needs to Crack down on this I feel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kovacevic dropped the gloves so much earlier than Martinez, I think that was why there was no instigator called. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
