Still weeding out the virus... 3-2 Ducks

[WeThreeKings]

Galchenyuk's goals tonight:

Right side of the ice.
Center of the ice.

Clear Chucky is a C/RW.. no idea why they use him on LW, the worst forward position for him.

 

[Price is Wright]

So much more entertaining without him.

Moral victory for the tank tonight. Couldn't have scripted it better... two goals by Galchenyuk and a beautiful setup by him for Eller in OT, only to have Eller take one for the tank.

He has been the tank king since October.

 

[expy]

Galchenyuk is going to be a beast

Unless Bergevin doesn't manage to get rid of DD.

 

[Kimota]

I know the concept of shut down line still exist but having Matteau and De Larose trying to match up against Getzlav was asking way too much of them. Matteau would have been more effective crashing and banging on the fourth line.

Rare Pacioretty sighting

The Ducks were on an 8 game winning streak. It's an elite team. The Habs should feel proud of the way they tonight.

 

[incognito Burrito*]

I would just like to say that Bergevin has to be upset a little. You pick Brown up to play against tough teams and your dumb-as-**** coach benches him against a tough team.

 

[Rapala]

Good old Lars Eller. Does some really good things but end up missing an open net which costs us the game.

Never gonna score on that play falling away from the net.
Why am I sure these details are escaping our coaching staff.
It's a simple adjustment and Eller had all day to do it.

Rare Pacioretty sighting

Is that little girl in the background Plekanec?

 

[donghabs98]

I don't mind losing games like this. The Habs gave it all they had and showed some heart. The young guys also looked good. Those are the type of games we want. Winning isn't important anymore this season, it's the quality of the game.

 

[yRessUneChose]

positive:
they didnt get rammed like they did vs the Sharks
McCaron looked alright
Galchenyuk goals were beautiful
Matteau skating is strong compared to DSP it seems, bad penalty but he responded well to it right after
Subban good as always
Condon good
pleks good on pK etc

negative:
they play in less than 24hrs the Kings with Scrivens in net
they got a point
therrien still HC
galchenyuk not center, not even RW
andrighetto on 4rth line
bartley or w/e
refs brutal non-call on the Ducks 1st period, which resulted in 2 pps

Good old Lars Eller. Does some really good things but end up missing an open net which costs us the game.

This, too. Looks good all the time, right up until the point where you need the puck to actually go in the net, or hit the tape of a linemate's stick, or NOT get possessed off into no man's land...

 

[deandebean]

Plekatchu was back tonight. But very efficient on the PK.

 

[Runner77]

Gotta give it to the Habs. McCarron showed he belongs. Chucky is a star in the making, is trademarking a mean money shot.

How did you guys like Ellis and Pateryn tonight?

 

[NobleSix]

Is that little girl in the background Plekanec?

Wow I didn't even notice that was Plekanec in that photo, good eye!

 

[SirClintonPortis]

Galchenyuk..only 11 goals away from 30.

 

[the]

Let's forfeit our point and just give it back to the league.

 

[SB164]

The Habs gave it their all against one of the best teams in the league.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Good game. It was so good to see the Habs compete in a physical game and not get run over.

McCarron, Matteau, DLR, Pateryn even Emelin all stood their ground. Habs competed tonight.

The D would be much much better with Beaulieu and Petry on it. It had issues moving the puck.

Ellis has a wicked beard. He seems like he has a good outlet pass too.

A fun game to watch. It's been awhile since I said that.

Chucky is unreal. Just getting better and better.

[Bob b smith]

Plekatchu was back tonight.

If he's our number 1 C, forfeit next season's playoffs right now.

 

[Apoplectic Habs Fan]

First time ive been entertained watching a hab game in months

 

[SirClintonPortis]

Wait, isn't it the Ducks wanting that matchup since they have the last change?

 

[Rapala]

Gotta give it to the Habs. McCarron showed he belongs. Chucky is a star in the making, is trademarking a mean money shot.

How did you guys like Ellis and Pateryn tonight?

Loved his game tonight.
He can stay...

The Habs gave it their all against one of the best teams in the league.

They didn't impress me much...

How did you guys like Ellis and Pateryn tonight?

I'll give Ellis a couple of games... but Pateryn, I like the guy. Liked him for a while. Trade Emelin and keep him, its the same style but he can be better.
