Chaput follows up his awful penalty last game by throwing a pizza up the middle for a goal this game, it is ridiculous how bad he is.
Bergevin is just completely inconsistent. You'd imagine that you're right, but then, he also went after Vanek, Semin and Radulov.
He talks about character but goes after Drouin who refused to report to AHL in TB and as a young prospect already asks to be traded, and gets cokehead party boy Kassian that doesn't last a game...
So, you assume he has some interest in skill and talent, but then moves Subban, lets Markov walk and brings in talentless plugs.
He's all over the map.
Yes,for sure needs to replaced with someone like Brian Boyle last year of his deal with the Devils.Chaput follows up his awful penalty last game by throwing a pizza up the middle for a goal this game, it is ridiculous how bad he is.
Yes, I will conceed that but did you possibly catch the other 58 minutes of last nights game? Drouin barely had a pulse and it will get to the point where he will have to be reunited with Domi again because he wont do anything on a line where he is not having the puck given to him.Setup on Webers goal was nice though.
He's not going to make 52 saves a night like that all of the time as you know already. A win changes everything but the reality is that we just gave up 93 shots in a back to back with at least 30 of those being what I would call 5 star scoring chances from the top danger area on the ice. Our D is so very very bad. Mete and Weber are the only two that consistently seem to be holding the fort but everyone else is a toss up. We will need to get this type of goaltending for it all to continue but that's not fair to both goalies but it's probably the only way we keep this going.Didn't think Habs would have gotten the points they got lately. Kudos to them. Great determination. Incredible game by Niemi who I thought didn't have that in him anymore.
Watch a Leafs game and tell me who has a bad D.He's not going to make 52 saves a night like that all of the time as you know already.

We should send them some of our D, I wonder if they would send us one of their forwards?Watch a Leafs game and tell me who has a bad D.
I would trade anything on our team for Matthews or Marner, don't get me wrong. Thing is, even with all their star power up front they suck ass defensively. They won't make it very far with their current roster on the back end.We should send them some of our D, I wonder if they would send us one of their forwards?

eehhhh, noWhere dem Niemi haters at? A few of you dissed my boy after that Tampa game.
Best goaltending performance by a Habs goalie this season.
52 saves...wow!
AFAIK, the record for most NHL games without a goal goes to Steven Halko, 155.
The Metay is halfway on his way to the record.
Im no Bergie fan, but 99% of the fans from 31 teams want better players on their 4th line and everybody hates their 3rd pair on D.1 puck over the glass...and 1 blunder because of a Reilly suicide pass...and then he's awful. Of course. He is a 4th liner. Expendable just like 95% of the 4th liners. Like Agostino too who doesn't bring anything anymore. Peca was awful too. Hudon is awful as a 4th liner. Deslauriers can be awful too.
Incredible how Bergevin seems to continuously acquire 4th liners.....and all of our 4th liners suck....
I'm in the same boat, I had us sniffing at a top 10 pick but then all of a sudden things have changed lol.Totally agree. Not saying we are a great team or better team than I thought. Just saying that I didn't think we'd come up with the points we did lately. And totally thought Niemi was just done. He won't be able to do what he did yesterday every day....but he might still has some juice left.
No he wont make 52 saves like that every night. Im told no Canadiens goalie has ever done it. Apparently a franchise record for a road game.He's not going to make 52 saves a night like that all of the time as you know already.

Im not a huge fan of the habs back up goalie.........but it was a franchise record.eehhhh, no
it's not even been the best goaltending performance this week.
and after the tampa debacle, niemi is back to even ground.
he slows things down too much. has the burden to create. he needs to start skating and things will happen for him.

He does not want like to risk getting hit at full speed. So he likes to slow it down. Only in wide open ice will he start skating hard. Thats what makes him useless for most of his shifts.he slows things down too much. has the burden to create. he needs to start skating and things will happen for him.
"It all starts with CAA-REEE"Because we have a GM who dislikes talented players.....not enough character or the right attitude.
Kovy and Koivu were our last two skilled players.....the grinders shoot it in the corner, and go and try to get it back.
Was in Costa Rica on vacation.........On that goal Reimer reminded me of a sloth we saw there.18 year olds aren't supposed to be pulling power moves like that while showcasing that much skill in the NHL. Kotkaniemi is special.
he plays better when you dont notice him.Had an assist on Weber’s goal but other than that I barely noticed him.
These tend to even out during the season. We've also played a bunch of games where we've outshot, outhit and out-possessed the opponent and came out of it with zero points.He's not going to make 52 saves a night like that all of the time as you know already.

Just because you have been cutting him up does not mean you have to be insulted about the performance everyone in Hockey is hearing about this morning. Credit where credit is due.
Granted Dryden, Roy and Plante never had the chance to make 52 saves against a garbage non play off team.....because they never played for a team as bad as the 019 Canadiens. However I am surprised Carey has not had a 52 save road game. He has played for some brutal teams since arriving in the NHL.
None the less Niemi was the best Hab in the arena last night.
(bonus for the habs that Riemer was was in the other net) Now that guy stinks.
