Post-Game Talk: Habs lose to Leafs.......again

[SirClintonPortis]

Well boosts their confidence. Our team won't win 4 against them

If we take them to 7 or even advance, I don't know whether I would laugh or cry.....

 

[dinodebino]

Just LOL at Bergevin being in talks for an extension. You have to be kidding. YOU HAVE TO BE ******* KIDDING.

Never mentioned an extention. I believe Friedman said discussion on his future.

What Bargain Bin's future with the Habs should be:

 

[McGees]

Send him a Rosetta Stone and then come whip these slackers into shape.

[Goldenhands]

We are slow as hell and our transition game stinks...

Torts in Montreal...can you imagine the shyteshow that would be...

 

[Grand Admiral Thrawn]

I will say what a flamboyant, very decisive Habs defensmen once said:

I can't wait until we take it all away from them!

TO or EDM it doesn't matter. We will win the 1st round.

That is if we clinch the playoff spot. LOL

 

[LaP]

He had two #1 defensemen among the elite and an elite goalie.

Along with a top 10 goal scorer who could do it while playing with AHL players.

 

[Andrei79]

This feels like the Kevin Lowe Oilers. Brutal GM that has the owners ear. Stays for 9 years then gets promoted to president of hockey ops.

 

[dinodebino]

Nothing about an extention. Just talking about what lies ahead.

He's got one year left to his contract. Guy probably wants to know what lies ahead. The Molsons from way back have always rewarded their most loyal employees (I go back to Hartland).
Maybe Molson will offer him something else within the organisation, who knows!
Bergevin has been loyal over the last 9 years. I truly believe he had to work with an internal cap because of his 'reset'plan.
Until I see the contract signed, I will not presume of anything.
This piece is speculative at best. Discussing means nothing.

Yup. To me, that's what it's going to be.

Let's hope we come out of it with four 1st ov like they did

 

[Goldenhands]

They just look like a bunch of guys who dont enjoy playing hockey anymore... I would go the full re-build and sell the vets outside of Toffoli, Anderson...

Unless we have respectable playoffs, big changes will come...

That's the culture since the early 80's sadly

I would love to see Torts here but since he won't be able to speak to that 1 idiot reporter in his language, there will be protests again

 

[expy]

It's not just the number of injuries though... losing Bryon or Drouin, no biggie.

Losing Price hurts... a lot. And people are starting to figure that out. But to lose him AND Gallagher at the same time? And this happens with Weber playing as bad as he has and then getting hurt? I mean...

And the thing is, even if these guys come back, they'll all be coming back right after injury into the playoffs with no recovery time. I think either way we'll get crushed now. Esp when our coach has decided that Staal is the guy to rely on late in games.

Yup. And even if Price were to play like he did in the playin last year, he'd probably have to keep that up for 28 games if the Habs wanted to actually make a run, because it's not going to be a short run if they ever do.

...and most of the "protestors" wouldn't even be hockey fans...

 

[expy]

McDavid hit 100 pts tonight. 4 pts so far.

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

I don’t think Therrien was a good coach but at least he had the team performing well for most of his tenure.

He had superstar talent and got the least out of those teams that any coach could have. He was a God awful coach.

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

McDavid hit 100 pts tonight. 4 pts so far.

I'm tracking him in another thread. If he's got 4 tonight that means he's got 31 in his last 11. That'd be 225 pts over an 80 game season. Hotter than prime Gretzky right now.

 

[Kimota]

He had superstar talent and got the least out of those teams that any coach could have. He was a God awful coach.

I'll say this though, the Habs never had much offense in this era so neither Therrien or Julien had the luxury to have any sort of offense. And the team still don't. Two good Ds and a good goalie can only take you so far.

MT used Desharnais as his first line center. That was his choice. He did not have to do that... It was a disastrous decision and only the tip of the iceberg in what was wrong with him.

It's one thing to have limitations on your club. It's another thing to make those limitations worse. That's what bad coaches do.

 

[V13]

This team is 24-21-9 which is more like 24-30 in reality. They may make the playoffs this year bit in a regular non covid season they would probably end up finishing 10-12th in the East

All we can hope is a miracle on ice and that Bergevin get canned during the summer before the draft and free agency.

This might be a bit

Send him a Rosetta Stone and then come whip these slackers into shape.

I could see him ending up in Buffalo....
