Post-Game Talk: Habs lose 5-3 to NY Rangers

[40Armia]

There's no value to a goalie who plays well for two periods of each game.

If a goalie is not playing well for all three periods, then a goalie is not playing well.

Of course he deserves to be yelled at , if you would have read my post that's the first thing I said!

You played the childish name game. And said Petry isnt aloud to call him out, well because you hate Petry. Strange

I find it ironic Petry is blasting JD for his defensive play, it makes me

Absolutely, and it's not because I'm sticking up for Drouin, I'd like to see both Drouin and Petry traded.

I don't care what team fans are cheering for, I care how this team plays.

Jeff Petry has to be the next to go, his attitude is bad.

You got that right, there's a reason why his last name starts with a P and ends with a Y.

So ? Hes protected by the cage. ***** team from last year is back

so you want a guy in a cage to play policeman ? with what ? his stick ?

he wears the cage at the opponents discretion. he starts acting like a big guy behind a shield ( you know the ncaa) and there goes the cage.

Even with Dlo, we are as soft as cotton.

just wondering, what's the value of a D corps that doesnt play D and repeatedly leaves their goalie out to dry ?

more importantly, how is that the goalies fault ?

Lol hockey responses arent only fights. Have you ever played ? If so. You would know what i mean

I do not

there is a word for guys who play tough behind a shield but its on the tip of my tongue. I'm sure you've heard it, plenty, care to help a fella out ?

Anyone expecting dlo to stand up for a teamate while wearing a shield is likely to never see that expectation come to fruition.

Everyone in the building knew he was pulling that to his forehand
Cmon man
Nice goal tho

Just curious... don't you think reilly should've hit pionk instead of looking at pionk pulling it to his forehand ?

I think most goalies would give that goal. You don't think he should be able to cut in front like he did cause the other D is there so you go into butterfly and make sure no low shots are going in.

Price is meh this year, making some huge saves and giving up some softies, but I don't get why some people act like every goal he gives are softies that Niemi would've saved.

Even if price anticipates Reilly stopping Pionk there, he still needs to be ready in case he doesnt - he just sat there hoping the DEF would do everything and didnt even bother poke checking when he saw Reilly getting beat. price is pathetic

He was not good on the sequence, but to say every single goalie stops this is nitpicking. Just my opinion here. I think the third goal was god awful and pretty costly, but other goals were goals most goalie allow. Can we expect more for him ? Sure. But people are exagerrating.

That's a hard play to stop, because you can't get off the short side post very quickly, else they are gonna tuck it up there.

There's really no excuse for that play to happen with both D men back but Juulsen isn't NHL ready and Reilly isn't a strong defender.

So when the defense objectively sucks but the goalie saves our ass the defense is good.

When the defense is bad but the red light goes on, it's the goalies fault.

We were in the game for two periods because of good goaltending in spite of our defense and lazy ass backchecking wingers,

No i'm saying the defense sucked all game, it just got that much worse in the 3rd.
