Its so fitting Montreal loses in the last minute, blew a 2 goal lead. They make fun of the rest of the league for doing that, but now they are blaming the refs for their mediocrity.
I think I can honestly say, the Habs fans are officially worse than the Leaf fans.
That was a huge loss for them, but an even bigger loss by Florida. Lets do it again Philly.
Now we are playing a tired team. Hasn't happened much this year so play like your playoff lives depended on it....because it does.
Back check like you are desperate. That is the only problem with this team, its not d men fault the forwards don't back check. You need to skate back as fast as you did going forward.
Come on Keefe, no matter the name on the back of the sweater, sit them if they coast back. That will change their tune.
Back checking is this teams bane. Its the difference between winning and losing.
Back checking is a mind set. It can be corrected but discipline by the coach is necessary to correct. Sit some of these rich, overpaid babies to send a message. If they don't get the message then trade them.
Matthews, here is a little something about you. Try back checking. Your 40+ goals don't mean squat if we miss the playoffs. Everyone talked about your 200 foot game when you came into the league. Haven't seen it this year. You are lazy and we can get a boatload of pics and prospects for you. How can you look yourself in the mirror knowing that the entire bottom 6 outworks you and Hyman up front.
Same with you Captain. Start playing like you care.
Get rid of Nylander for a D man. Tired of his perimeter skating and giving up the puck. Yea he has more points this year, but worst back checker on the team. At least Marner back checks.
