Post-Game Talk: Habs win in OT! MSL's first win against Saint-Louis! Byron 500th game; Romanov 100th; CC is BACK!

[llamateizer]

Kotkaniemi is gonna wish he stayed under MSL

He can still come back.

don't sign an extension and he won't get qualified

 

[ChesterNimitz]

I thought the thread headline was going to be

'St-Louis beats Saint Louis'

Glad the Habs broke the L streak.

Either way, the headline would be correct.

KK doesn’t fit this management’s speed imperative. He can stay in Carolina, that ship has sailed.

Poor guy. Not poor in term of money. When I remember all the love he got in his first 30 games with us. The smile he had every game, like a child with his red pedal car at Xmas. His dream had come thru, and the fans were enthousiasmed. Now all this has gone.
He didn't developped well, his skating is still poor. Part of his problem, his father trained him, they were stubborn thinking they knew better than Habs expert how to train in summer, he came second season heavyer and slow. Here he is now. A below average player overpaid and humiliated. Sad.

Jesus, Tony. It's been 4 games. Keep it in your pants.

Still don't see how Wideman found that passing lane.

Easy, here:

 

[The Real Guy Lafleur]

Settle down, some people acting like we won the cup... LOL

 

[Nedved]

Enjoying the energy. I hope it continues for the remainder of the year. I'm curious what a Marty St. Louis team looks like, but he's got Caufield clicking right now.

 

[JustAHabFan]

Send Cole back to his room! He's not helping the tank!

He should get a hat trick in a losing cause.

 

[JustAHabFan]

Every win now is like wining game 7 of a playoff series.

 

[CheldishGamibno]

Hey Kucherov, stop it.

You can see the difference between Julien and Ducharme vs St-Louis. The first two didn't play the youngsters as much because they were afraid of losing. St-Louis knows that winning is not his first priority for now, it's developing.

What baffled me about the previous regime is the incessant notion that it was either/or. We found just as many ways to lose 3 on 3 force feeding ice time to 'steady vets' like Plek and Danault. Strange that playing skilled players might actually lead to a goal and a win.

 

[Rapala]

As a Blues fan, I raise my glass to the Habs. Good game boys, you deserved the win.

That extra night off in Montreal bit you guys.

We had coaches who played not to lose..................now we have a guy who actually plays to win...very interesting concept, lost on many...

 

[Rapala]

If he stays, he will most probably be the captain and leader for the kids coming in...

Nope. I'm not sure your captain can be a third or fourth liner which is where he will play. Some of his comments this season have raised some red flags.

 

[Wats]

I am not sure if St.Louis is the ideal coach for winning but he might be the right coach for developing Suzuki/Caufield/top 3 pick 2022/ top 3 pick 2023.

 

[Stive Morgan]

Man I'm still so pumped

I'm so happy for CC

 

[domiwroze]

Now that we won one, do you believe that MSL can align 2 in a row? Something that DD couldn't accomplish

 

[CrAzYNiNe]

Settle down, some people acting like we won the cup... LOL

That's what it looked like when they all jumped on the ice!

Goes to show what a tool Ducharme was and how the players really didn't want him there.

The NHL'S version of Sly Lefebvre.

 

[Rapala]

Schueneman is showing a lot of poise and assurance, never looks out of place.

He might have carved himself an opportunity at a regular role at the NHL level if he keeps this up.

He's already better than the Clagues Kulaks and Widemans. I mentioned in the GDT that I like players who are event drivers and he is one. Just keep those events mostly positive and good things will happen.
