this quote was incredible, and he backed it up i also don't understand why it doesn't get more attention.That was a wonderful series with all the trolling Dale Wiese did and Subban's beautiful quote before game 7:
"I can't wait for the crowd, the noise, the energy in the building. I can't wait to take that all away from them."
my favorite Habs goal, probably.The Subban goal coming out of the box....damn, what a moment.
Damn right. Our very own Bernie from the Sesame Street had only one gear and it was grind. Punish and belittle everyone with an actual talent and pamper your little toy soldiers, Davey Desharnais and Francis Boo-Boo.It’s not a popular opinion (I still don’t get it tbh) but getting Thomas Vanek really solidified our offense and he was a big reason for our success during his brief stint with us.
Michou did him dirty by reducing his usage against the Rangers in the ECF. He should have been working with him instead of punishing him.
I've been a Habs fan my whole life, but that team was the one who really got me into following the team like it's my day job.
And we went from Carey Prime to Dustin Tokarski...Why, did you say something to him like, "hope no one skates into your knee next round!"?
To this day, I still yell this. When that asshole shows up on my tv screen.f*** Chris Kreider.
Weise went full on fookin legend.
And after Keider did his thing, Prust almost killed a guy. I will never blame him for that.
His celebration was selfish...on that second one I remember a lot of people complaining that his celebration was selfish and I think that's one of the definining moment in my jadedness
I will never not believe that we had at least a shot. Yeah the Kings were a better club for sure. But so were TO and Vegas in 21. So was Pittsburgh in 20. Boston was favoured to kill us in 2014 and we kicked their ass.That team had no shot to win anything , why are we even kidding ourselves , a pathetic hypothetical moral victory of what *could have happened* if Kreider didin't run into Price.
I hate how habs fans cling to that what could have happened post season if Price was healthy stuff. The rags got ran over in the finals , I don't think we would have won a single game.
Subban and Weise heroics against boston were awesome tho.
But don't kid yourselves that team was garbage on paper why is everybody in here lying to themselves for a morale boost. It was a nice run but please spare me the contender talk.
Yeah I'm a debby downer but sorry that team was hot trash with Paciorrety David Deharnais and Pleki as our top 3 forwards lmao. I swear people talk about that team like it was something special.
Just another one of our 10 straight seasons we had where we went into the competition with a bottom 10 roster on paper and the best goalie in the world lol

So no, I will never believe that we had no chance. Even with all our flaws. Even with Therrien being a dumbass. We had two of the best clutch players that we ever had. This was right when Price and PK were peaking. We absolutely had a shot at a cup that year.
Price consistently beat better teams. No, we didn't always win - if we had we'd have won a cup - but neither the Rangers nor the Kings were unbeatable.It's the playoffs man "anything can happen" especially in Montreal, there's just some magic that can't be quantified when it comes to this city, it's team and the postseason.
Yeah , I agree with you , I just think the mentality should be to strive for more than *just a shot*. Something I think the current regime is building up much better than the two previous ones no doubt.Price consistently beat better teams. No, we didn't always win - if we had we'd have won a cup - but neither the Rangers nor the Kings were unbeatable.
I won't sit here and say we would've won. But I will say that we certainly had a legitimate shot.

Oh for sure. We had two killer players and some really good supporting cast members but we badly mismanaged the team and had gaps. We were a flawed team with great players. A lot like the Oilers right now only bizzaro style.Yeah , I agree with you , I just think the mentality should be to strive for more than *just a shot*.

Injuries are always a wild card. Caufield is a great example as he should’ve killed it this year.The playoffs are fun.
These last few years of shit (and the next few?) better be worth it. I have faith, but you never know with sports.
