Habs lose 4-3... ugly

[Et le But]

This felt like a JM coached Habs game tonight..

More like a RC coached Habs game.

 

[Kenny Powders]

Like I sais in the first page, I hope the media chasr Gionta out of town.

 

[Plante]

Coach made bad choices and players didnt compete when they needed to, I dont know you can be a competitive person and actually cave into so much pressure (3rds)

 

[Habskrieg]

That's dumb. We got dumb penalties. They scored and caught up on us with their PP. We gave up the lead. At least we got a point. Even though we should have gotten 2.

Oh well. Maybe this should be a signal for Therrien to improve our special forces.

 

[Hannibal]

Diaz return to his manlet form. Give his icetime to Subban FFS!

 

[Poulet Kostopoulos]

That's the danger of playing at home. Over-confident and not sticking to the plan. Defense broke down as the game progresses.

Gio was the worst forward on the ice. Obviously, MT is trying to get him going with all those undeserved bonus shifts.

 

[Guess]

Can someone explain to me why we turtled whenever an Isle came into the D zone with the puck as well as us losing all the puck battles after we were up 3-1?

 

[drewbloodfins]

Markov should at least pretend like he cares.

 

[Mynameismark*]

Great going Habs, because of you Jack Capuano gets to feed his family for another week.

Classy.

 

[OneSharpMarble]

Bourque 14 mins... Eller 14 mins... Gionta 18 mins...

Anyone see a problem?

I expect this to be a fun PGT even though we've got 11 points out of 12.

I don't get it, Gionta brings almost nothing while Bourque is a strong presence and Eller creates good rushes. Maybe showcase him for a trade because once Gallagher gets back Gionta should be off the top line.

 

[Luigi Habs]

Nice comeback for the Isles. Hickey scores his 1st career NHL goal - a game winner too.

I'm not even mad. Just, meh.

I'm mad. Because we could've easily win if Michel Therrien didnt take stupid decisions and if he stopped his love affair with Diaz.

 

[hockeyfan2k11]

Loss is on Therrien. Gionta on the point for a 4 on 3? Diaz leading your dmen in icetime? You deserve to lose!

 

[nyhabsfan]

Habs blow another lead in the third with the STUPID icing all period and kills any momentum!!!!

FFS... can we stop being passive in the third period.


PP was horrid in the third.... nobody took control and were just out worked!

Only positive was the the DD line seems to be back.... although Cole needs to learn how to stand up on his friggin skates!!!!!

Gave away another point... so counting the Buffalo loss in the dying second.... 3 points?

UGLY!!!

 

[Habsfan18]

I do.....for quite some time now. But I'm almost alone in the Gionta thread....you're all welcome...

I'm with you regarding Gionta, WS.

 

[donghabs98]

What has happened to our PP. After that great start it's just as bad as last seasons

 

[Mats NAslund]

This team is giving me cancer.

Not funny man...been living with Chronic leukaemia and lymphoma for five + years now. It's living hell.
I know you meant nothing by it I'm just a bit sensitive about these days!


Habs showed us who they really are tonight!
Easy schedule is why they are where they are right now.

11 of the next 15 games are on the road........This will be the season playing itself out over the next 15 games

 

[Habtchum*]

Loosing two 2 goals lead .... Bad

 

[habdynasty]

The team was due for a loss at least we get the loser point !

 

[CanadienShark]

Gionta........ wow...
Price... not your best
Markov... come on man

 

[TennisMenace]

I believe in giving the devil his due- the Isles deserved this. They played much better after 1st period.
Although we did ice the puck better.

 

[Dr Gonzo]

Enough with the Diaz-Gorges pairing. Re-unite 26-76.

 

[McGuires Corndog]

Great going Habs, because of you Jack Capuano gets to feed his family for another week.

So low, but yet I find it so god damn funny right now.

 

[TRG]

I need a new nickname.

 

[zx81]

The Defense was worse than in our 6-0 loss.

 

[Agnostic]

Screw all of you who called it an easy win after the first. The game is 60 minutes long and anything can happen.

Hope you remember this the next time we outplay a team in the first period.

"The Islanders are easily the worst team in the League"

and suddenly they weren't
