Two teams heading for lottery play off.

Not worth the time whatsoever on Thanksgiving. No way I subject myself to watching a loss on a family day. Enjoy

Over 1200 games a season. Some mean absolutely nothing. Fillers.

This is one of them.

Me watching the Habs tonight, ready to react for a 6 straight lost

LOL

 

[Mike Towers]

Do you guys know why Saturday’s game is starting at 3pm?

Probably because they have a game in Boston the next night....gives them more time to prepare for their eventual loss

 

[The Real Timo]

Indeed , idk if it's me but Petry has been awful since paired with Mete

Why WAS he paired with Mete? Seemed to me that Weber-Mete and Petry-Chiarot pairs worked alright.

 

[DangerDave]

I was going to do a brighter GDT but I decided to go with a darker gloomy feel to match how things are around the team these days.

Should have kept Suzuki in full brightness as he's our only beacon of light.

Nice GDT. Love how clean it is.

 

[The Real Timo]

If we lose this one, we'll probably end up with 3 more losses by the end of Sunday.

It doesn't matter. THey'd still be achieving their goal of trying to make the playoffs.

Once you get into a lottery playoff anything can happen.

oh my.. you'll be actually watching?

Don't worry. Clod will fix that.

 

[DangerDave]

I mean , did they really look good together? maybe offensively , but defensively the entire team is a mess.

Weber has been joining the rush quite a bit with Chiarot and he's actually pretty damn good at it. They've been the only steady pairing defensively as well with Petry and Reilly being absolute tire fires defensively.

No support from the forwards (Danault and Domi especially) and Price not being great doesn't help either.

 

[The Real Timo]

While Habs 1st and 2nd lines do not look great on paper, the 3rd and 4th are just sad sad sad... And Habs need another NHL defenseman in place of Reilly or Kulak.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

We're going to win !

You have to say that, as it seems you're not allowed to post that you feel any other way.

It is against New Jersey, so there's a fairly decent chance that should win.

Really surprise Muller hasn't been fired.

18th in the league in faceoff percentage.
15th for powerplay and falling.
31st in PK.

Aren't these the areas where Muller is suppose to help/be in charge of ?

Brilliant !

 

[Archijerej]

We are going to win this one, surely?

Yep, and with better players he would do well.

They have needed another NHL Dman for years. Once somebody points out a problem for him.. Bergevin likes to hold onto that problem as long as he can. Seems to be a policy of his.

Always in the market for small forwards opposing teams no longer want as well.

They dont call him Bargain Bin for nothing.

The Cap space he has been ordered to keep available......pays for his own salary with the balance going in Molsons pocket.

"HOT DOGS ! GET YER HOT DOGS !"

Why WAS he paired with Mete? Seemed to me that Weber-Mete and Petry-Chiarot pairs worked alright.

He paired Weber with Chariot against Boston's big line in the 1st game. The media ask him about it and made him look like a genius since we won. He kept them together since... Probably a ego thing if he keeps them together at this point..

GHG.

This is awesome! This place wouldn't be the same without you and I am sure that the people that matter here feel the same way that I do.

 

[Gally11]

I think it's hard for Julien to do that because Chiarot has looked pretty good with Weber. The other option would be to play Kulak/Reilly with Petry which sounds like a terrible idea.

Or Romanov

 

[MaxDummy]

If they find a way to lose that game...

 

[peate]

A couple of NFL games to kill time before the Habs game finishes us off; and a third at 8:30 just in case it becomes unwatchable, which is a good bet.
Didn't we just lose to these guys? Oh yeah, the beginning of the slide.

Maybe they'll cheer PK this time around, especially if he scores.
