Post-Game Talk: Habs tubthump Canucks - 7-3 (Horvat x2, Sutter)

[I am toxic]

Hey Tofu, we didn't let you get back to back hatties! Suck it!

 

[Dab]

Imagine taking 3 FRANKING MINORS in a game plus that cheap shot.

like just handcapping your team for 10% of the game because they are short handed for that at least.

like Eriksson was just invisible which can somewhat deal with.
Myers actively works against the team.

Cheap shot ?

 

[vanarchy]

I want to be patient and supportive of the struggling youngsters but it’s easier said than done.

 

[rypper]

can we buyout myers?

$888,889 for the next 6 years. Plus 5 million dollar signing bonus this year and again in 2023.

 

[krutovsdonut]

that was just a train wreck of bad. i mean i understand the excuses with the young defence but there was a lot more wrong than that.

that is now four out of six games being horrendous demoralizing losses. tick tock.

 

[Ozone]

Ewwww...

'nuff said.

 

[mathonwy]

Habs are gonna curb stomp us on Saturday.

 

[I am toxic]

Imagine if we traded Horvat like many here wanted to do last year?

We'd have no one scoring goals.

That's my captain for a reason.

Imagine this team without Bo and Brock right now.

 

[rypper]

Imagine if we traded Horvat like many here wanted to do last year?

We'd have no one scoring goals.

That's my captain for a reason.

I said a year or so ago in a redraft of the 2013 draft, I might take Monahan before Horvat and I'm ashamed and embarrassed of that take. I completely take it back.

 

[krutovsdonut]

how did myers get 16 minutes of penalties? is there a second 5 minutes tacked onto the major?

 

[Pastor Of Muppetz]

Other than Rafferty in the 1st..I thought the young D guys played ok....but yeah, there was a lot more wrong than that.

If anything else, this season is showing us how last year absolutely everything broke our way, including a once in a century pandemic to get us into the playoff picture.

If the result of everything breaking your way is getting shelled defensively while being buoyed by 1. Vezina calibre goaltending or 2. 3 games of other worldly .980sv% performances from Demko, then the whiplash is going to hit hard when you remove multiple key contributors to those teams that found the first sliver of success in five years and don't build on that team.

 

[MS]

Less upset about this game than the previous couple because the defense we had to dress tonight was so laughable.

But on the other hand, pretty much every team every year will have multiple stretches with 2 defenders injured and when your depth is this terrible, it's on management.

Horvat is a bright spot so far but not much else.

All of this was so, so predictable.

"Guys are disappointed in themselves, and they should be. We know we can be better. We aren't going to use injuries as an excuse, we need to be better and we will be. As for the Myers hit, I didn't see a replay yet. It looked like he was trying to get him in the shoulder and hes a tall guy, so I'm not sure exactly where he got him. Petey is squeezing the stick right now, and he just needs to work thru it. He's a pro, and he knows what he needs to do. Guys like him are competative and they are their own worst critic. He will be better"

Coach TG

Team is bleeding goals,,Green needs to be fired asap..just pathetic..

Stop being so pessimistic! This is just a mere step back. Nothing shocking about this reboot. Nope. Just a wee little step back.

 

[lawrence]

At least we are not dead last. We are ahead of Dallas.

 

[Ozone]

$888,889 for the next 6 years. Plus 5 million dollar signing bonus this year and again in 2023.

This, plus many unbelievably uneducated moves by Benning, is most definitely affecting our team morale now.

It is time.

 

[StreetHawk]

I want to be patient and supportive of the struggling youngsters but it’s easier said than done.

It’s a playoff style format this regular season. Top end guys will get extra attention. Reality of the division only format.

Regardless it’s good experience for them to play the same team over and over to prepare themselves for future playoffs. Can you win 2/3 in the sets.

 

[mathonwy]

That game was a new low ...

And with no Tanman or Marky to turn to for advice..

And every veteran shitting the bed HAAAARD..

Bo... JT... y'all gotta rally the troops.

This one hurt.

 

[Bourne Endeavor]

Not going to lie. Seeing Toffoli make us his bitch sucks knowing we could and should have kept him. The only hope is it wakes up management to how bad Benning is.

As for the game itself. Myers continues to be a giant disappointment. How do you take such a boneheaded penalty when we're down 6-3? I'm worried about Petey. Just 1 assist is dreadful. Demko has also looked remarkably average. Granted, team defense hasn't exactly helped

 

[timw33]

In two games, Tyler Toffoli has scored 13% of the amount of goals Loui Eriksson has scored in his entire career as a Canuck.

 

[krutovsdonut]

Other than Rafferty in the 1st..I thought the young D guys played ok....but yeah, there was a lot more wrong than that.

i thought that even when they weren't hurting us they were still reacting nit initiating, which took us out of the game most of the night. but yeah, not exactly my focus.

these losses are like what happened the year messier killed the team.

 

[sting101]

F = Myers Chatfield Rafferty Gaudette
C- = Virtanen Demko Schmidt Hughes Beagle Pearson Roussel Pettersson

C = Sutter Motte Hoglander Miller Boeser Juolevi
C+ = Horvat

12 players who should be ashamed of how they played

 

[Hodgy]

I love seeing Toffoli scores on us. It just makes it harder for Benning to keep his job.

 

[iFan]

It’s crazy how every year Horvat keeps getting better
