Post-Game Talk: Habs win all important game against the Flames

[Uber Coca]

Toffoli, Anderson, Allen and the Romanov pair were good. The rest were average, except for Weber and Chiarot who were terrible. Drouin invisible, which is progress.

 

[Runner77]

Scorey Perry is genuinely funny. Who else would pull off stuff like this.

 

[salbutera]

How is it a bad idea? Bouchard would be called up for the playoffs to lend support for this season, is all.

Ahhh I misunderstood - thought you meant make him an assistant with Habs going forward

 

[Runner77]

I can't stand that Recrutes brute but somehow, he keeps finding ways of embarrassing himself further.

Just saw him tweet how he thinks that Staal must have some undiagnosed medical condition and trying to be funny with something that isn't, he quipped that the condition might be ALS.

 

[26Mats]

Bergevin, why don't you fire whoever it is that recommended Staal's acquisition? Ohhhhhhhhh, that was ... you?

And waive Staal, so we don't have to hear about not having the cap space to call up Evan's

 

[First Line]

I think Staal just needs time after the confinement and ajusting to a new team. At least I still have hope.

 

[TannedBum]

I wonder if Armia could be a late bloomer like Petry was.

Absolutely, he already started to bloom last season. +23 goals pace. And as a reward, this organization pissed on him. He started this season with 11min TOI and on 3rd PK pair. Lmao.

There's zero chance that he will sign here. Nada.

Gally has no shot, but has figured out how to score some goals... Go to the net !

He keeps thinking its flag hockey and expects the play to stop once he is touched.

 

[Apoplectic Habs Fan]

Watched half the game, mainly listened to the rest.

It was just awful hockey

He keeps thinking its flag hockey and expects the play to stop once he is touched.

Dumbest thing I've read all week.

 

[kurt]

Who do you guys think starts in net tomorrow? Sounds like Price might be back? Or do they give Primeau a look? Or does Allen play back to back?

Toffs second goal was world class. Fantastic goal. With intention. Pure NHL.

 

[bsl]

Absolutely....

Staal will be a monster in the PO. mark me. I LOL at posters peeing their drawers about him. He's cruising. Habs could be very dangerous in round 1 if Price steps up.

 

[Grand Admiral Thrawn]

Habs win!

Insert Skin of teeth!

Stat of the game: Habs had 30 turnovers... 30!!!

 

[bsl]

Do we have enough cap space to replace Staal by Evans without waiving Staal ?

Watch out for Staal in PO. mark me.

 

[CheldishGamibno]

Watch out for Staal in PO. mark me.

I mean, hard to predict. Can't skate anymore, even if he has all the heart in the world

 

[tazsub3]

Dumbest thing I've read all week.

Thank you for you opinion .

 

[bsl]

Mr. October only scored 5 more goals the rest of that season.

Toff is a beauty. Can't believe we got him. His second goal tonight was world class. Now add the mighty mouse next year. That is getting somewhere.

True there's no reason not to believe price will be his regular stellar self in the playoffs as he always is. With Staal tho, since attaining him, I've thought that the Habs should try him at 4th line LW with Evans and Perry. He can take strong side faceoffs, play deep in his zone when necessary and wont have to expend nearly as much energy from skating 200 ft the whole game

Armia is a good player and hope Habs can get him signed at a decent deal looking at what Lowry and Laughton signed.

 

[bsl]

yeah i don't really get the armia hate either. Maybe it's because i see him as 2nd/3rd line tweeter who wins puck battles.
Yeah he's inconsistent but he's not there to carry the team offensively and he's not paid like it either.
That line worked tonight because he didn't need to be trigger or set up man

Armia is huge. No problem on the boards. Not hugeley skilled but can shovel the puck in. He's always at 18 goals a year. I laugh at posters here saying dump him. He is a prototypical playoff player.

 

[CheldishGamibno]

Armia is a good player and hope Habs can get him signed at a decent deal looking at what Lowry and Laughton signed.

Problem is he's so streaky, will play 1 or 2 great games in row and be invisible for the next 10

 

[bsl]

Problem is we go no replacement options for Weber. Maybe once the quarantines end for the new guys, we can start rotating some D, but we got to truck on with Weber at least for another week.

That said, I do genuinely think Weber needs a bit of a break. I dunno if it’s physical fatigue or mental, or both, but maybe just take a few therapy days. If we make the playoffs, we need him focussed... and on the second pairing.

Agreed. Webs should be playing 16 min a game from now to playoffs. If they make it.

@BigDaddyLurch might have to tell him to GTFO, to make it official.

...don't wanna offend...bad Lurch...bad...
