Post-Game Talk: Marill... Merrill..! Habs win in Oil town

[Tyson]

Much deserved gritty road win.
Huge huge 2 points

 

[OnceWasNot]

That was close to a major meltdown.

 

[frapp10]

If Oilers didn’t have McDavid they’d be Sabres level

 

[Deebs]

whoever said weber was having a good game after 40 mins should be thread banned. Shutdown D my ass. Hall Gil 2.0 right now.
looks lost on the PK or playing a man down with their net empty

Weber was excellent again tonight. Shutdown Drai all night

 

[Habano]

Drouin has to sit for the season. He brings nothing to the team and almost singlehandedly cost us the game with his 4 minute penalty. Enough is enough, just get rid of this loser already!

 

[Scott1243]

Phewww. I love hating the team I love.
At this point the media has to ask about Drouin’s favouritism.

 

[Clumsyhab]

Can Perry beats the crap out of Drouin after the game please?

 

[Jee]

Ouuuuuuf.

 

[le_sean]

Always happy to see us beat the Oilers. Their fans are insufferable.

Thought I hated Sens fans the most but these guys take the cake.

 

[HabSgt]

I noticed Merrill, he was decent.

#thanksjdrou

 

[Kudo Shinichi]

I dont want to laugh but god damn it was funny seeing anderson break his stick for his hat trick lmao

Also : Someone push drouin's pinky so he get injured and we can play Caufield instead of this dumbass.

I don't think it would've gone in time anyways since he took so long before deciding to shoot. There was like 0.8s left

 

[nyhabsfan]

I can't stand that piece of garbage #92!!
Darcharme if you dress him against Calgary you shouldn't be back next year either!

Drouin is a complete headcase and the worst trade Bergy has made.... Man would Sergachev and Romanov look good together on this team.

Yup, he’s just a liability at every level.

I’d rather play with one extra defenseman

to be fair, he was great the first 2 1/2 periods, he just completely dropped the ball in the last few minutes.

 

[26Mats]

The ending became interesting. But that was a statement game by Habs.

I really hope they carry this with them to Calgary.

Having the right line combinations helps.

First Merrill with Romanov instead of Kulak.
Then Lehkonen KK Byron is much better than Drouin on that line.
Anderson is finding his groove with Tatar and Danault. Toffoli-Suzuki-Armia were quiet today, but are a threat.
Drouin had his usual gaffs. But I liked a lot of shifts from that 4th line. They created chances.

Line combos matter.

 

[CapSpace]

Go take a look at the Oilers board thread if you want some good laughs. They hate us so much lol

f*** their clown managed team and f*** them.

 

[HuGo Sham]

Weber was excellent again tonight. Shutdown Drai all night

except with his head up his ass on the last 2 goals.
committing on the pass with no one to cover the slot,
and screening Allen instead of clearing chiaisson out of there

 

[Goldenhands]

THIS was a playoffs game! Alot of positives, even Stall played well...

 

[Boardish]

Hal Gill was an amazing PKer.

 

[Rapala]

Ducharme and Drouin are to blame for the game being that close at the end.

It's become ridiculous. Edmonton were dead in the water until that shit happened. He doesn't deserve PP time gets it anyways and that is how he repays the favor.

 

[Simarino]

Good job boys, lets build on that!! 5 very good period out of 6 in Edmonton!! Hopefully the games in Calgary will be that entertaining!!

 

[Want My Dach x 77]

Anderson and Danault absolute monsters tonight
Kotkaniemi and Weber very very solid as well.

Tatar looked very hungry.

Perry was effective , probably best game from staal as a hab.

Jon Merril Hockey !

 

[Riddick412]

Overall great showing tonight, until the last 5 minutes courtesy of Drew and Gil. Any other team would've benched Drew by now.

 

[Holystik]

Always happy to see us beat the Oilers. Their fans are insufferable.

I think we both easily agree on that one.

 

[le_sean]

That should have been an easy victory with the PP at the end. What a boneheaded penalty to take. Absolutely disgraceful.
