Post-Game Talk: Habs lose back-to-back

[HabSgt]

We are hab's fans.We are so pathetic that we take more joy in our enemies losing than our own team winning anything as it never happens.I'm already mentally setting my mind to cheer against the Leafs in the playoffs when they advance. Sad years to be a fan on this team.

Can't wait to cheer against the Leafs & the Bruins! GO Not the Leafs or Bruins GO!

 

[dinodebino]

One thing I’ve noticed under Dom is the team rarely has hot starts. They sometimes bounce back and finish strong but not often enough come out flying.

I'm really not convinced of his coaching, TBH.

 

[Andrei79]

No way this is acceptable after one GM has been at the helm for over 8 years and has fired 2 head coaches

Honestly, it feels surreal that a billion dollar franchise is fine with this.

 

[Habano]

Just waiting to read all the hot takes from the experts about how Suzuki played better than KK again

 

[Hullois]

Suzuki is a big concern.

It could all be second year slump, but his stamina and endurance is a big question mark. His play of late, for over a month, is unacceptable. He's slow, weak on the puck and nonchalant. And now also taking stupid penalties.

Let's hope this is growing pains and not a more definitive trend.

 

[PhysicX]

BENCH, RIDE, TRADE, TRY
BENCH: Mete
RIDE: KK
TRADE: Drouin
TRY: Primeau

BENCH: Evans
RIDE: Drouin
TRADE: Lehkonen
TRY: Staal

That's what will happen

 

[Kriss E]

Staal has a really positive impact on the room.

It's unfortunate the game is played out on the ice...

 

[zx81]

Why is Edmundson and Weber out there for the last minute?

And why is it Edmundson who shot ?

 

[Apoplectic Habs Fan]

Wonder how Bergy can make this team even slower?

The make up of the team is beyond bad. Very little chemistry hence the bingo machine line combos and none seem to last a game or two.

 

[AlexGretzchenvid]

Good.

 

[dinodebino]

no point in being frustrated with this. Hasn't ducharme had enough time to turn this around? Worse/even record with Julien.
I just wanted to see playoff hockey, but as they piss away games in hand at home no less, it's squeaky bum time.
They need to start sitting a few guys.

Worse record in fact. Shades of the Martin-Cunnyworth season. Except we'll make the playoffs this time around.

Sophomore slump...2nd year curse

 

[26Mats]

Wasn't expecting much on the back to back.

I was happy to see us outplay the Jets in spit of this.

Glad Staal is one game closer to being moved to the wing, and KK one game closer to going back to C.

Only one more sleep until Caufield's debut...

 

[MarkovsKnee]

BENCH, RIDE, TRADE, TRY
BENCH: Mete
RIDE: KK
TRADE: Drouin
TRY: Primeau

Yup.

Bench: Kulak
Ride: KK
Trade: Lehkonen
Try: Leskinen

So very well said.

This team wasn't built with a plan in mind and it shows.

 

[ChikN]

Aside for a couple of short stretches, he has not been very good since the 3rd week of the season.

Yeah I agree. I think some healthy competition with KK would do them both some good, light a fire under Nick's ass and reward KK whenever he outplays him.

 

[dinodebino]

Our schedule be brutal so this could get bad. If they're tired now wait until 2-3 weeks from now.

I found them more energetic than expected. Except for some of the usual floaters.

 

[zx81]

And some thought that MB was a candidate for GM of the year.
We are so sloooooowwwwww.

Oh don’t you worry you’re little head about that...where there’s a will, there’s a way - MB will figure out a way

 

[dinodebino]

Better hope canucks play 56 because if they go with winning % nucks might get past habs.

Come on man, not even close. The losses in OT don't count.

 

[cujo1117]

Rather watch the Rockets at this point atleast they have a few exciting players to watch

 

[RC51]

clearly habs need McDavid, but Habs have no money so MB must get get McDavid with 70% retained. Offer up 2 second rounders and close this deal right now. I good All other gm's could make this deal in 2 minutes RIGHT???????????

 

[Zorba]

Tick tock. Tick tock. Tick tock
That’s the sound of the clock Bergevin is looking at. He’s gonna if we miss the playoffs which is now conceivable or when Toronto humiliates us In the first round.
10 dark years is coming to an end

Honestly would sit him a game at this point.

Yup. Hence how you can "win" all your trades but keep spinning wheels
