Post-Game Talk: Habs lose nail-biter to Sens in OT, 4-3

[A Loyal Dog]

Ottawa are going all in this year for 2 reasons:

1. Get Duchene to stay with team (by making him believe they are better than they are)
2. Give the Avs the middle finger (let them get a crappy pick)

 

[Prettyisland]

We had them in the ropes until the alzner gaff.. he doesn’t fit the culture. He should be done in mtl , at least Lernout will hit

 

[Adam Michaels]

 

[Whitesnake]

Ordinary goaltending

Incredible that lately, I feel more confortable with Niemi than Price. That has to change.

He doesn't fit either.

 

[Cobra Commander]

Look I have nothing against Armia, he's a good PK player but holy ****, can we give Kotkaniemi better linemates ?

No!!! We f***ing can’t!!! You believe this f***ing shit?? Makes no f***ing sense, the kid should be PPG right now.

I’ve been complaining since game 1

 

[Tyson]

Anyone who thinks Kotkaniemi is going back after 9 games is wrong. He is one of the better forwards and is needed

 

[Tuggy]

Alzner should be permanently eating hotdogs in the press box.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Armia should never play 3 vs 3

I have no idea why he was out there before Byron.

 

[ottawa]

Never know what you get with Drouin!

Kid needs to find a middle ground between sucking and not sucking.

 

[Cole Caulifield]

With Niemi we win this easy 3-2. Price let them back into this game with this awful goal. He should have shut the door after that and made a huge stop but couldn't make a single great save. He blows. God he pisses me off.

 

[NobleSix]

Get Danault off the freakin' 2nd line and give Kotkaniemi Tatar / Gallagher.

Agreed. Danault in the top 6 is currently my biggest habs pet peeve.

 

[zx81]

Sens deserved the win, they dominated the last 2 periods and the ot.

Alzner....way too much TOI.

Armia's best game IMO.


4th line without Hudon was terrible.

Faceoffs will be a problem all year I guess, which is really frustrating.

Bring back Mete and Hudon.

 

[loudi94]

It was Deslauriers first game of the year, wearing a face mask still. Pick someone else to pick on. He didn’t negatively impact the team whatsoever tonight. Talking about grasping at straws.

I like DLO, but face mask DLO shouldn’t be playing.

 

[Stive Morgan]

Incredible that lately, I feel more confortable with Niemi than Price. That has to change.

Price ain't Finnish

 

[Milhouse40]

On a positive note....Habs are 2 points away from Toronto with 2 games in hands

 

[JianYang]

Drouin tries to be kovalev out there. He can be a more effective player if he tries to be drouin instead.

I wouldn't be surprised if the flow is kovalev inspired too.

 

[Number 57]

Send Alzner to the moon.

Why is Deslauriers dressing instead of Hudon

 

[Koivu11]

What’s our record in OT since 3-on-3 was introduced? Seems like we always lose them.

 

[domiwroze]

You just cant leave Stone open like that for a deadly one timer right inside the dots...

Alzner is bad. Jesus f***ing christ. Can he at least play 1 f***ing game where he looks like a man that deserve his contract?

Price was bad on the second goal, couldnt do shit on the 3 others, A++ scoring chances.

Sens were better tonight, all over us and we couldnt get the puck to settle in the Ozone since the start of the 2nd period.

Armia in the OT... can we just sit him instead. Put Lehkonen/Hudon/Gallagher instead of Armia with Kotkaniemi in the OT and we might score instead of giving up a 2v1 and a breakaway, thanks to Armia turnovers and slow skating.

 

[Shabs]

For a team that knows a win gives price a tie for second in all-time wins, this effort does not bode well for the season.

 

[Cobra Commander]

I have no idea why he was out there before Byron.

Why is Kotka chained to this guy?? Why? Because it’s his idol? Is our management this dumb and blind?

 

[Number 57]

Drouin tries to be kovalev out there. He can be a more effective player if he tries to be drouin instead.

I wouldn't be surprised if the flow is kovalev inspired too.

He used to wear 27 for Kovy

 

[HeShootsHeScores]

Sens displayed great hockey there. Never felt safe watching this game. Our OT game is so off. Seems every team is good at it but habs just don't know what to do. Put Byron and gallagher out there.

 

[Tyson]

Who the hell can win a faceoff?
