[starsfan86]

Why is Benn even out there lol

 

[Kcb12345]

Wyatt Johnston finally scores again tonight

As expected

 

[Troy McClure]

Johnston got greedy. Good. Need some more guys wanting to take the puck to the net.

 

[Satan]

Fucj it lets go green

 

[Blindsummit]

Stop giving me hope

 

[Troy McClure]

Robertson and Miro both forgot how to shoot this season. Sad

One remembered. Miro still can’t shoot.

 

[Kcb12345]

Oh man Duchene had 2 guys right in front

 

[redbeardtx]

Sad.

 

[Satan]

Fun ending, thats hockey

 

[Kcb12345]

Marchment missed an empty net on the whack out of mid air

Another lesson in showing up at the start. Can't play like this against Colorado

 

[catters078]

Hopefully this loss puts a fire in the ass for Colorado Thursday.

I don't know if I agree - I thought the effort was mostly there and they did score 11 seconds into the game lol. Montreal did a good job of choking offensive opportunities (the other team gets paid to play hockey too- which is often lost on people here) and Montembeault made several big stops.

What killed the Stars in my opinion was:
1. Awful showing of goaltending from Wedgewood on goals 2 and 3. Montreal didn't have a ton of scoring chances but he didn't come close to matching the opposing goaltender's night.
2. Back to back penalties by team leaders (Benn and Pavelski) in the 3rd period. The 4th Canadiens goal sunk the ship.

 

[Johno]

Yay team

Wasn't able to watch, but seems like the effort was there. Hard to ask for much more night in and night out.

 

[eartotheground]

goalie dif.

 

[Zapp]

goalie dif.

DPS diff

 

[eartotheground]

DPS diff

too much focus on burst instead of DOT

 

[Sports2]

They were due a stinker against an inferior opponent. They’ve actually been good about that this season and i almost posted something about it but didn’t want to jinx it

Just let me be angry lol.

Monte played amazing, gave them the saves they needed, and like you said, we didn't get those saves.

I made money off Montreal winning at least, and it was an exciting finish. Just wanted the two points!

Let's not forget the X Factor. As Grant McCagg stated on Twitter, Slafkovsky was the best player on either team

his blocks/60 were off the charts

Couldn't catch the game, so just watched some highlights. Sportnset used the Dallas commentators and they were great for the tidbits that came through. They were constantly giving the Habs props and almost tricked me into thinking Montreal is an actual good team and they didn't just get lucky last night.

Good luck in the season and into the playoffs !
