Fast Resume of tonight game Vasilevski >> Price

Hudon is terrible
Drouin back to sucking

 

[CH25]

Tampa is gonna be annoying for a loooong time.

 

[tazsub3]

d law, hit, was turning point of the game.

Drouin skated, but his passing and decision making were horrible

 

[KevSkillz4]

Deslauriers is stupid

 

[mariolemieux66]

Drouin f***ing sucks!
Better team won!

 

[Deebs]

Hung in there for a while, but then Tampa's depth and skill took over, showing that they are the best team in the East.

On to the next one

 

[ChikN]

Why is Spanre blaming D-lo? That penalty was bs...

 

[Positive Vibes]

o well on to the next one

 

[Zorba]

Price allows 11 goals on this home stand
That’s just not good enough
He’s just not a game changer anymore. This contract is gonna bite the next GM of the Habs in the ass
Don’t care about age but Rinne just got a 2 year extension for 5 million a year. Ok....

 

[Apoplectic Habs Fan]

Better shooters win. Its simple as that.

Vasy played very well but the shot quality he faced tonight was sub NHL. Petry fluffing the puck all night or missng the net. Same with Reilly. Go down the whole lineup it was the same powderpuff girl shot

 

[Rapala]

A good illustration of just how far off we really are.

 

[OldCraig71]

Poor execution cost us the game. Drouin is still not buying in to what the team is trying to achieve. Hudon is going to be the casualty from this loss because it’s what we do.

 

[HabsDood]

MB can't stay put.. He sells and plays youth or gets help NOW! On the fence is not fun..

 

[Spearmint Rhino]

PP sucked and our 4th line got too many O-zone starts - more than zero is too many

 

[Le Barron de HF]

Byron is not too far away from coming back right? We really gotta do something about that 4th line, DLo should sit. I am hoping that his current speed is due to the muscle he lost because of his injury (couldn't eat for a good 7-10 days). Let him workout in the gym and play when a) he's 100% conditioning wise and b) no longer has the cage. Also, Peca needs to step up for a fringe NHLer, he's had one good game so far, that's it. I can understand that his teammates might not fit his style but so what, do something out there. Shaw was the best one tonight but our 4th line has been a weakness for a long stretch now. I don't want Bergevin to waste picks on a bottom sixer but I am curious as to what solutions there are out there without resorting to yo-yoing McCarron.

On a different note, although Benn has been doing good this year, I hope the team sells high on him when Weber gets back. I like Ouellet's game, I'll eat crow on him. That being said, one of the kids, Juuls or Mete should be sent down. They are not showing me that they are too good to spend some time in the AHL. How far away is Schlemko?

Our big money players were no where to be seen tonight
Drouin and price were crap

 

[Le Tricolore]

Price was bad. Deslauriers doesn't belong in the NHL

 

[Rapala]

Price allows 11 goals on this home stand
That’s just not good enough
He’s just not a game changer anymore. This contract is gonna bite the next GM of the Habs in the ass

Price will never be a difference maker with this group and I can't understand people who thinks 10.5 can change that?

 

[Seb]

Let's be honest guys, the Habs played average tonight and still had plenty of chances, it easily could've been a 4-4 game. It sucks to lose but it was simply "that kind of game" where the puck won't go in.

And even if the Habs were average tonight, they still gave a lot of effort.

I wouldn't worry.

Some players were trash tho.

 

[Zorba]

He has to be a difference maker. Yes money has everything to do with it

 

[Kudo Shinichi]

A good illustration of just how far off we really are.

and the caps game was an illustration of how close we really are
dumb logic

 

[habs73]

Drouin is such a huge disappointment, you would think there would be some fire in his game facing his old team. Floating all night and then ices the game for the bolts. If I see him curl off and turn back to make a lazy saucer pass one more time, I am gonna break my tv

 

[OldCraig71]

Tomorrow there will be those that say that the negative fans were out in full force after a bad loss. The same people also tend to think that Bergevin has done a great job.

 

[cactusjack]

we allowed to many grade A scoring chances. We switch the goalies and it's still a 4-1 game.
We are grinding it out, creating scoring chances but it not enough because skill players against us create better chances.

Drouin need to skip PP. Too many turnovers, not enough creativity
D-LO is done, and the penalty was undeserved
