Post-Game Talk: Carey the GOAT

[Habs Icing]

This is art.

I am blowing each frame up to poster-size and mounting them in sequence along my hallway. When you walk toward my bedroom, we will score. When you walk away from my bedroom we will un-score. Then you can turn around, walk the other way and score all over again. Then I am enlarging the frame where the puck goes in the net and wrapping both my cars with it. I am printing t-shirts with each of the Plekanec/Pacioretty passes and making my kids wear them to school. I'm getting personal stationary for Mrs. Lshap and me with the inscription "2-on-0" printed on top.

And your wife has agreed to all this?

Whenever she objects, I play the goal-horn at full volume and start cheering.

Where are the halak lovers?

Do you see who is the problem here? It was all you price lovers and your hate for halak. The goalie coach we have had for this year and last has changed prices game. It was rollys style on price that was frustrating, because price DID stink back then. Still think halak is a good goalie and Isle are 6-2 which he has been a major part of.

ETA and its only you guys that kept bringing it up for years later as shown by this completely unrelated post in the PGT.

DD looks so damn jealous in this picture.

Saw this on NHL.com and was about to post it.

It's absolutely ridiculous that this still gets brought up. It was 5-years-ago... move on already.

PS. Halak's still a very good goalie anyway with almost identical numbers to Price, although extremely injury prone.

DD has got to stop reading HF...
How else can we interpret his recent facial gymnastics.
Troll in one shot.
Scorned lover in another...

His neighbors keep looking for the Zamboni to appear those sultry July evenings...

How hilarious would it be if he did funny facial expressions all-year and then in however many years when he's retired, he lets out the secret that he was trolling because of all of us.

Not going to happen, but would be amazing if it did.

lol...I was going to say same thing. Halak has a Jennings Trophy. Where's Price's?

 

[Habsawce]

The defense is starting to get comfortable playing with each other and Carey Price has found his form. Good luck Eastern Conference.

This place is going to become rather boring if this keeps happening. A happy HF MTL board? What would that look like..

Trust me - we'll never get the chance to find out. A week on the west coast should stir up our angst.

A well placed trade rumour seems to work.

 

[WeThreeKings]

Winning and we have bournival, sekac and beaulieu unable to play with Hudon and Andrighetto playing well in the AHL and de LA rose not far behind..

Or a Desharnais goal. This place occasionally turns into a facepalm buffet.

Which reminds me i need to get tickets for the Crunch game at the Bell center.

Safe to say Bergevin has done wonders for this team

Damn, out of all games to miss. I keep hearing it was a good one to watch. Can't believe I didn't get to see that 2-0 live.

 

[Cole Caulifield]

Beautiful.

It was probably the first game where the team played a solid 60 minute game. All 4 lines were rolling and getting chances, the 3 D pairings had great showings, although Tinner-Weaver got hemmed in a couple times. A big part of MT's game plan seemed to be to keep Nash at bay, and the Plek / Eller lines did a great job of doing that.

Was a treat to see Galch-Plek-Pap get tough matchups yet spend entire shifts in the offensive zone causing chaos. The two wingers have developed a great understanding for each other. They're always in movement, switching sides and helping eachother out. Plek and pap love giving Galch the puck, and he's showing incredible patience with it, making defensemen second guess themselves. They honestly don't know if he's going to take a quick shot, deke them, or dish out a quick pass. Truly amazing to watch these guys.

Poor markov

Great team win, everyone played well

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

Yup. People are quick to criticize him whenever he makes a mistake, but no one seem to notice when he plays the "quiet" style that brings so much praise to other elite defensemen around the league, while often being reproached to PK. He played a flawless game tonight. Generated offense at the right times, picked up an assist, and played great defense.

He quietly went about his job last night and had a good game. But I miss seeing the dynamic 'take over the whole game' PK Subban that we've come to know and love. I'd like to see him again soon.

Only up to page 5... Well this is awkward...

7-1. Not much else to say.

Mike johnson is my favorite....his comments in the third about leadership and Koivu and how it all really works was a thing of beauty....wonderful broadcasting.

He has gotten a LOT better in terms of broadcasting. He was really, really rough when he first started.

Mike Johnson is one of the best former players turned broadcaster. Probably because he's a product of TSN and wasn't forced into being a Leafs homer like the CBC and Sportsnet talking heads.
Same story for Romanuk. I'll always associate him with Canada's glory days at the World Juniors.

I'll always associate Romanuk with the cop from Terminator II.

This game makes me a bit sad.

Oh what could have been if krieder didn't take out price

You and me both. I think we would've made it to the finals last year.

Yea we play Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Sunday this week

I thought we didn't play until Saturday... Okay, guess I've got to actually make some plans for this weekend then.

Costume party at my place? Anyone coming as a Bruin though will be barred at the door.

Let it go...

I only play the goal-horn when my wife and I have sex.

It really bothers the neighbours but it only happens once a year so they put up with it. I score about as often as Bork does.

(For those who think I'm serious with this stuff btw... I'm jst kdn)

Sunshine and rainbows.

We'll have to start discussing the Leafs.

Damn, out of all games to miss. I keep hearing it was a good one to watch. Can't believe I didn't get to see that 2-0 live.

It was okay. We were the better team but it was pretty even. A lot of sloppyness on both sides and a lot of lulls in the action. The 2 on nothing was awesome though. Max, Eller and Price all had really good games. Lundqvist played really well too. Ryan McDumbass (I'm not bitter about him leaving at all) screwed up to give us the two on nothing so that was cool too...
