zzz Habs lose 1-0

[Lshap]

Can't wait for tonight's game! Anyone have the lineup?



... oh.

 

[Belial]

Well , we played good defensively and on the Pk I guess ...

 

[Phenom]

Good ol' Habs game badly coached. Good ol' Habs can't get the puck out their zone nor penetrate the opponent's zone cleanly.

 

[Lshap]

One of these days the team's and Price cross-connection will finally connect and we'll have an outstanding game by both. Instead of this Price is great but the team sucks or the team is great but Price sucks mode we've been going through.

Given the choice of one without the other, it was still good to see Vezina-Price.

 

[HuGo Sham]

what a **** ****ing game and **** tactics. at what point does the fatigue excuse not fly?
red wings, the queens of embellishment were playing 3 deep for 25 mins.
when did therrien think playing 2 on 3 would create scoring chances? they needed
to activate D and get a 3rd fore-checker in

not happening

 

[OldCraig71]

Pitiful effort against a much weaker team, no traffic in front, dumping the puck in with no attempt at puck retrieval, absolutely nothing. That was a game that I thought we should easily win.

 

[Ursus the White]

Blame the American Congress. If this wasn't a US federal holiday,then no afternoon game. No loss.

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

I should of recorded this game. It's better than sleeping pills without the side effects.

I actually did fall asleep for about five minutes.

 

[Belial]

It's mind boggling that everybody was off , not even one line or a player was on ...

Pac-Chucky-Rads had a couple of good shifts but they can be so much better...

 

[sheed36]

It hasn't happened much this season but there was zero effort and compete from the Habs this game. They mailed this game in even before they landed in Detroit.

If they play like this against the Pens on Wed they'll get lit up.

 

[sheed36]

The TSN690 guys praising Barberio for how good he's playing. A much different opinion from what I've been reading in GDT's here.

 

[Non Player Canadiens]

sometimes teams come out flat. happens.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Well, Price played a good game.

Despite the 4 goals against on Saturday (at least one in controversial fashion), he played a real solid game against NYR. And he had a real solid one today as well. That makes me happy!

 

[Hansman]

by the comments here I guess I lucked out the game was a regional black-out.

 

[Price is Wright]

Radulov was good.

Weber was bad.

 

[Roadhouse]

It's mind boggling that everybody was off , not even one line or a player was on ...

The only positive there is that we know Chucky is feeling good. He didn't hesitate to skate/turn hard and had no issue when guys got physical with him.

 

[OldCraig71]

If they play like this against the pens it will be another blowout loss. We are much too easy to play against in these games, I have to also say, not impressed with Weber, the game is looking too fast for him, he seems to be in trouble much more now than he was to start the season. We desperately need Markov back to eat some of the minutes on D, he is still a very valuable member of this team.

 

[Habs]

I watched it, wasn't that bad, Detroit smothered the team. MT had that ******** Barberio out there every crucial minute, including the final 1.5 , and he was god awful.

Barberio sucks balls.

 

[ThaDevilGirl]

Afternoon games should be illegal.

 

[sheed36]

13-1-1 in their first 15 games

14-11-5 since then.

 

[peate]

13-1-1 in their first 15 games

14-11-5 since then.

In other words, back to normal.

 

[waffledave]

Well , we played good defensively and on the Pk I guess ...

They had some major defensive breakdowns.

 

[Tyson]

A few hours of my life completely wasted.

 

[WeThreeKings]

If there's one thing I've learned, it's to never watch a game where the Habs play a ****** goalie.

They always get shut out.

 

[mariolemieux66]

I didn't watch the game, but by the look of it, many guys didn't show up.
