Habs lose 2-1 to Bishop's pads in OT.

[freezie]

Sucks for price , no point tonight without him . But he is terrible in shoot outs. What happened to our creativity ? This team has NONE . They are downright embarrassing in the shoutout.

 

[thegreatgasby*]

galchenyuk has no creativity and he sucks so much on pressure you can see in his eyes hes gonna miss even before he touches the puck

We saw that during the world championship

 

[LeHab]

Glad I wasn't the only one who noticed it.

Bute is too much of a gentlemen to get into trash talking.

 

[SB164]

I have no idea why Subban never gets any shootout attempts. He's the best player and has amazing hands which could prove worthy in a shootout. MT, get your head out of your ass.

Subban never gets any PK time either. Therrien is such a joke. I just don't understand how he justifies this when the team's been losing.

 

[Le Barron de HF]

Why are we so bad this year?? I just don't get it. We have a "good" team and yet we get dominated every ****ing time. I guess our coaching staffs isn't as strong as i thought.

Dominated? We get dominated against teams that are in the top 5 of the league, other than that we can compete with any team outside that range...

 

[Aspirine]

I hope Price stares them down in the locker room.

 

[googlymoogly]

Next time they should just pick Moen, Murray, Gorges. It might throw the opposing goalie off seeing those three

 

[Rosso Scuderia]

he has an history of being average in shootout, im not saying he didnt play well tonight

You're just seeking for attention.. Price played one hell of a game and looks like you were jsut waiting for someone to make the PGT and blasted Price for sucking in the SO.

Seriously, Price was probably the first star of the game and the first thing that came out of your mind is saying something negative about Price??

 

[HABSonaroll]

That 5-hole staring at those guys - blast it -

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

Most depressing loss of the year.

 

[realtalk11]

We saw that during the world championship

yeah JUNIOR lol,

just don't send him first hes young and stressed, he has skills but he loses everything due to stress

 

[Cole Caulifield]

PJ stock being a total Pejorative Slur on antichambre reminding me why I never watch this.

 

[Et le But]

That Markov backhand deke can be use once every 5 years so the young goalies don't know about it. After that, no more Marky in SO until his retirement.

A big oaf like Bishop would be the perfect victim.

 

[sheed36]

I don't care what MT's excuse is for not using Subban on the PK but it essentially removed his best player from the ice tonight for pretty much the last 5 minutes of the 3rd and over half of the OT..

Beyond stupid.

 

[NobleSix]

Briere and Galchenyuk don't belong on the SO.

I would have picked Bournival, Gally and Eller.

...Excuse me?

Galchenyuk is exactly the type of player you want to shoot in the shootout, especially with our sad team. Just because he tried to switch up from his classic backhand-forehand move, and missed, doesn't mean he doesn't belong in the shootout.

Gallagher on the other hand... He is a great player, he scores goals, but he isn't the skilled guy with quick hands that you want in the shootout.

 

[JAVO16]

Common guys. Criticizing the coach for his shootout choices is ****ing stupid. Are you there at every pratice ? Do you know who's the best shootout performer that can score under that kind of pressure ? It's a crapshoot.

 

[Apoplectic Habs Fan]

Is Bart as the QB instead of Nelson similar to Bouillon playing instead of PK?

OR DD for Eller or Pleks

 

[SB164]

Anybody remember this? Whoever our coach was, he had balls at the time.

 

[JohnLennon]

Carey Price is jaw-dropping. The Habs had all the momentum by the end of the game. It's a shame the shootout exists.

 

[Rosso Scuderia]

It took 53 minutes for Therrien to ask his players to crash the net more...

 

[HabsForHire]

This team needs a finisher, do the isles want DD for vanek ?

 

[Bring Bak Damphousse]

Would you go to war for Therrien?

Poor paying fans.

Maybe not, but when Price is playing out of this world you go to war for him, **** the coach.

 

[Bryson]

I almost lost it when Pierre said the only habs to ever score against Bishop in the SO was... Desharnais!

 

[Lshap]

Biggest problem in the game was the total inability of Habs players to connect passes. Tampa went tape-to-tape-to-tape from their zone through the neutral zone and into ours, which is why they controlled the play 75% of the time. Their passing was crisp and accurate. Habs gave them room and waited for a mistake, which didn't happen often enough.

Tampa's playbook seemed to be make the Habs rush their passes. It worked. Habs had no time to do anything with the puck except throw it in the general direction of a forward, or chip it weakly along the boards. Very few solid second passes, which meant plenty of incomplete plays resulting in Tampa regaining control.

 

[FrontierPsyCHiatrist*]

I hope Galchenyuk, Briere and Gallagher all feels horrible tonight.
