Post-Game Talk: Habs can't shake SJ Curse -- Sharks win 5-2

[Runner77]

We made it! Some of us actually managed to watch the whole thing, "fatigued" and all.

They tried and actually came close over the first two periods.

Nice find, OC.

That's one that got away. SJ looked slow, and didn't establish much.

I’m against overusing goaltenders. But until there’s an “x” next to our team in the standings, Price plays every game. Those first two goals are ridiculous for an NHL goaltender to give up. Julien saw it which is why Niemi wasn’t playing. Should’ve given up a 2022 pick for Kinkaid. Awful. Just awful.

Jordan weal on the ice. What the ****?

He's been on the ice all night and you're surprised only now? Guy played what? like 17 minutes or so.

Still believe it has nothing to do with giving Kok a break and everything to do with exploiting the willingness of a guy to save his job for next year. We will press the citrus until there's nothing left in it and we will dump him. Been there done that.

Lol here we go..

 

[Holystik]

Disappointing,

Goodnight everyone.

 

[Rapala]

One better than our game against the Leafs.

 

[GrandmaCookie]

The main board needs a replay of that empty net

I'm in the process of sending the yogurt gif to all my friends. That should be a nice e-mail for them to start their day.

 

[Kudo Shinichi]

That was probably Niemi's last nhl game. I doubt he plays anymore games for us, and certainly no team will want to sign him during the summer

 

[Runner77]

Oh, forgot to add this.

 

[Koivu11]

Should have traded for a backup goalie.

 

[Adriatic]

Both games we dominate against these hacks and both we lose. Had enough of Niemi, another embarrassing performance. Good on the team for not quitting. Sharks again going nowhere come playoffs.

The kid was practically crying in his interview with the media before the game or yesterday. This isn’t a simple resting situation. They’re trying to send him a message. Which I don’t know why or how you can at this junction in the season by benching.

 

[Runner77]

We should have established a safe word by which we could have all massively bailed on the game and saved ourselves a foregone conclusion.

In case you're a time traveler, here is tonight's safe word.

Spoiler: Safe word

Fatigued

 

[Habs10Habs]

Neimi is a really nice guy, and he did help make it easier for Kotka to fit in with the Habs. It's time for him to go now, that was too painful to watch.

Like i said should have been done earlier. And he should have been replaced by a higher quality player.

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

Put back Kotkaniemi , did not even hear Weal names tonight , hes probably tired.


Blaming coaching staff/org for this L

Putting Niemi was a stupid decision.
but like board say , tomorrow we will 100% because its Price in the net because Ducks cant score any goals

I did not expect this.....


That the game was somewhat close.

 

[Fazkovsky]

We miss kotka ... Thompson out please

 

[Habs10Habs]

Should have traded for a backup goalie.

Besides Kinkaid who is almost as bad as Niemi. Who else was available?

we can use 1 of our 6 4th liner and use him as a goalie

Easy win tomorrow. Just have to score 2 goals and it's done.

 

[Apoplectic Habs Fan]

This felt like MTL vs the Pens.

It was lost before puck drop.

Just like thinking Benn vs Crosby would end well, Niemi vs any NHL team wont end well.
