GDT: Game 24: Columbus at Montreal | 11/27 7:30PM

Jackets can't give the puck away fast enough...
Own zone? Dump to center
Got the puck at center? Dump

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Just wait if you think this game is boring, tomorrow is going to double it.

 

[DJA]

No possession and cheap giveaways. Nobody wants the puck right now on CBJ

 

[Johansen2Foligno]

Odd how the puck is only rolling on the Jackets

Are you inferring what I think you are inferring?

 

[aRussian]

Our offense has been largely nonexistent for large swathes of the season. This will eventually catch up. Need a response or some pressure. Stuck at 5 entire shots

 

[Zarathustra]

Well that went well.

 

[DJA]

Since we can’t score, this is likely enough goals for the Habs to get the 2 pts

 

[Byrral]

Well that was as fun as a punch in the gut.

 

[Viqsi]

I'd forgotten how much Tim Peel and his ilk can ruin a good hockey game for me. Love how he's not just crap w/r/t the discipline part of his job, but can't get out of his own damn way and causes turnovers for the opposition in our defensive zone as a result.

 

[MFRONE]

Wow, took a 2nd blatant penalty by Montreal for the refs to actually call something

 

[aRussian]

Need special teams to be a difference

 

[MFRONE]

Is the guy with the puck the only one who is allowed to move on the PP?

 

[aRussian]

Is the guy with the puck the only one who is allowed to move on the PP?

That definitely seems a trend in multiple areas of our game. Caught in D zone? Everyone standing except guy chasing puck. PP? Everyone waiting on a cross ice without moving and opening the pass lanes. Not doing simple things to generate chances.

 

[CBJ goalie]

I love the pressure they're putting out, but that PP is just so bad.
No threat at all.

 

[MFRONE]

Jackets are going to shatter the record for the worst PP % in a season

 

[Theo Von]

Carey Price hasn’t given up a goal in the last 86 minutes of play...

 

[Halfboard]

This power play is absolutely pathetic!!

 

[aRussian]

Motte getting a lot more ice time. One of few players showing energy

 

[Johansen2Foligno]

I imagine the plan to play the Jackets is to take a 1-0 or 2-0 lead and then commit penalties the rest of the game

 

[Viqsi]

I love how the Habs are handling transition defense. Double-team on one forechecker, and one defenseman plays the puck while the other just grabs the player. Never called for it. Ever.

 

[ReggieRed]

At least the second PP unit generated some chances, right? I'll take a moral victory at this point...

 

[DJA]

Jackets don’t have a soul in front of the net on these shots

Tim Peel a fan of old school interference-palooza, it seems

Apparently. We need more Dubi hits.

Apparently Customs allowed Julien into Canada with that plan as I always felt Boston’s game used a lot of that holding style.
