Post-Game Talk: Habs Unceremoniously Torched -- Blanked by LAK 3-0!

[OnTheRun]

Honest effort for both team, it came down to the offensive talent the Habs don't have.

Spoiler

Yep, now that's the right direction.

learn how to pass
hit the damn net
and when you do...stop hitting the other teams logo!

Signs of a low skill team.

Send JK back to Finland. Not ready.

Let's be honest for sec the puck luck was on our side the first two games. Like Danault attempting a shot deflected by the dman right on Gallagher's stick for a one timer. Domi tries a pass to Lehkonen in his skates but then deflected right on Byron's stick alone in front of the net. Wont be this way all season long. The first games were exciting but there was not a truck load of goals resulting from skilled plays. Going into the dirty areas work against bad or unprepared teams but you wont win that many games this way. Drouin will have to wake up eventually. People are way more patient with him than with AG. I don't think AG ever looked that bad outside of when he came back from his knee injuries.

In all seriousness, this was a long break and the team probably was nervous to play at home. I won't expect this level of badness until I see a string of these games. It did look like the team that I thought it would, that being said.

I feel safest when Juulson is on the ice. He is a solid Dman. Petry looked like Beaulieu tonight.

Beaulieu scored tonight.

 

[Rapala]

officially out of the playoffs boys

Habs are great until they have to go around something. Ineffective small forwards across the board.

This team can't pass and loves perimeter play

That's been the case for o we 20 years .

 

[mariolemieux66]

That's more like it!

Torched my ass...


We played a solid game!

montreal played horrible no jump at all and no finish and bad goals let in by price....bloody pathetic.

 

[FlatIron]

Tonight's positive...we had a goal for 5 minutes...

6 minutes actually.

 

[26Mats]

Funny to look back at the pre-game predictions. The funny part isn't the predictions themselves, but that some fans saw no chance of this happening.

 

[davey999]

?

Pretty clear. He isn't ready for the league.

 

[Hannibal]

Big team vs midget team.

Speed isn't everything.

 

[dinodebino]

Pretty clear. He isn't ready for the league.

I didn't see the third, but to me, he was one if not the best forward out there, and best faceoff man.

 

[ArtPeur]

Hockey needs more challenges and goal reviews

- change my mind

I haven't laughed so hard about those 5min

The score says it all. Trying salvage moral victories out of shutouts, pathetic.

Welp, we are off to a good start with regards to chasing our own shutout record.

 

[Zorba]

Great. I guess pleks and alzner are in on Saturday

 

[Guy Larose]

When you have Danault as one of your top centres, you're in deep dodo.

 

[didimentionlarseller]

it was worth it to not get that goal that was actually funny as hell

Shaw 'prevented us' from scoring in the home opener lols

 

[teamfirst]

Bad game, kids looked nerveous after the first goal, hope for a better one on saturday

At least beating the 14 pages of the last post game thread is a sure thing
