Post-Game Talk: Habs Bookend Tank Season with a loss to Trana, 4-3

[Runner77]

I’m only bugging you.

Oh, I knew that. I just thought I'd be courteous.

Price & Weber are losers in the playoffs too and they have terrible contracts.

I think Price and Weber do more or less what they are expected to do in the playoffs. They don't elevate their play but they don't regress either.

I don't think Weber's contract is horrible. Price's contract though, yes, I totally agree.

 

[sandviper]

Play that epitomizes the Habs' season ...

Marleau looked embarrassed also.

 

[JianYang]

So which team does everyone want to bandwagon on for the playoffs?

I'm hoping for Winnipeg, but I think the most popular choice around here is Nashville.

4 -3????


Thanks for not hurting any of our guys, good luck in the draft and be better next year, it's more fun if you guys are some what competent.

 

[DubDub]

Everytime i read this forum , more and more i wish there was a dislike/ thumbs down button.
The draft was the only thing we had to look forward to all year. Hopefully we get lucky on top 5 pick, draft well with all our picks, & pull off some decent trades for the future.
Terrible season is finally behind us! Now lets get lucky on the 28th & look forward to next year.

Can’t hurt what we can’t catch.

Please destroy the Bruins, or Tampa.

Here's our final regular season dish from our Galloping Gourmet ...

Thanks Groove for sharing your love of gastronomy with us. It added a lot of zest during our GDTs and who knows, it may even inspire some of us to follow your footsteps. We'll be looking to Amazon and EBay, in case you decide to offer inter-provincial deliveries, lol.

As you guys probably heard, Vigneault was just fired.

Gotta say, I like the Rangers' style, there's no p***y-footing around. They're transparent with their fans, they're even willing to put it in writing in a public letter and now, they don't leave anyone in limbo in respect of the head coaching job -- they fire Vigneault as soon as the season ends.

Meantime, the Habs are wondering how to constructively fire their zamboni driver and are struggling with whether they should make it public.

 

[sheed36]

Why hasn't JJD been fired yet? Failed at running the PP. Failed at running the PK.. The defense looked lost many nights so he also failed at that too.

 

[groovejuice]

Is there a possibility that Bergevin could get fired? Are people sensing something?

If he is to be fired, I predict it's because the other owners of the team forced Molson's hand, perhaps with the promise to replace him as President of he did not comply.

Bell is a partner in both the Habs and Leafs and it wouldn't shock me if they are pressing for Montreal to be run in the manner of the current Leafs, using their hierarchy as a template.

This is all speculation on my part, but it seems unlikely billion dollar corporations are satisfied with the state of affairs in Montreal. I'd hazard they're closer to appalled.

I just hope that he is gone but I fear that he gets one more year and history will repeat itself.

 

[CalgarySnow]

He’s got a PC he’s not going to be fired unless he announces his firing/resignation or if Molson wants to really humiliate him by announcing his firing after Bergevin’s PC (we can live in hope). We are going to have to see how low the Habs can go I’m afraid

 

[groovejuice]

Bergevin has more than proven he does not possess the intellect, the imagination, the aptitude or the temperament to be an NHL GM. This has been solidly established over 6 years.

Molson may not recognize it, but others do. Molson is not a sole proprietor. He'll do as he's told.

 

[Runner77]

We may have just gotten a glimpse into the Secret Plan ...

[MOD] doesn't mean montreal has to emulate the rangers, a pretty shittily run franchise right now too

Corporations are not fans, if the team is generating revenue they are fine with bad seasons, the trick is offering hope after a shitstorm like this year.

We're gonna pick 7th.

Point final

You're saying that it's now definitive?

 

[Habs13]

So... is it dead? Is it finally over with? Not that I've bothered to watch much. Just once to see how Rychel looked. This was a bullshit season and I'm not sure I'll even bother with the next one. I know nothing significant is going to change. You know it too. I can't support this level of idiocy knowing the shitweasel and the purple pants monster know they treat us fans anyway they wish because the majority will still drink the cool aid and buy up the seats.

I don't even care if we draft Dahlin; sign Tavares or any of it... f*** it, this isn't fun anymore. I haven't enjoyed a hockey game in years. I didn't even watch the world juniors this time around. First cup I miss in 25 years - maybe more.

I get the feeling my brudda.

I just hope that time can heal the wound and we get some competent hockey minds as soon as possible in every level of this organization.

We just leave it at that.

Nuff said

 

[Runner77]

Edmonton won. All the scores are in.

We're either picking 7th or we're not.

pretty easy answer.... The habs are a country club....

I mean our D core was suppose to be better.... what happend?

 

[Runner77]

By finishing 4th, we have a shot at a best case scenario of a first overall. Or a worst case scenario of a 7th overall.

Ozy just being a pessimist/ antagonist.
