It's incredible. If our world is really full of overly emotional, cry baby adults like what we see on this board, then I'm truly scared.

Yea it's no big deal, some posters here wait for the first sign of anything bad to proclaim that we suck and will get swept without scoring a single goal

Montreal and Tampa 2 very well Coached Teams should provide an interesting 1st Rd Matchup Great Goaltending on both teams
Funny that Bowman...one of the best coaches ever...thinks the Habs are well coached and the beer league armchair coaches/GM's on here think he's an idiot...priceless!

I expect he'll get 3-4 games.
No prior suspension...the cat itself was dangerous, if he was a repeat maybe 6-8 games.

Standard Bowman quote, he spits out that phrase every chance he gets for most teams. He got the goaltending part right.
I liked the game because we saw Carey take the game to the next level. Yes we lost, but to be fair we lost because of a stupid play on the PP by Desharnais, we could have easily gotten in to OT. Carey just played a monster game and this could only give him confidence against them in the playoffs.

Is beating Buffalo, Toronto, and Florida something to be oh so proud about? Three crappy teams that even mediocre teams SHOULD beat? The shootout win against Boston? Shootout wins are not something to be in awe of. It means the team couldn't take care of its business in regulation. Even in Detroit, the game should not have been 5-4, but rather only 2 goals scored by Detroit, but our pathetic "defense" showed their worth(lessness)
Do you honestly believe Scotty has even seen more than a handful of Habs games this year?
i've watched every second of every game for years. If you can explain to me why everytime we have an opportunity to win a must game we fail. Everytime we have an opportunity to put a dagger in the hearts of our enemies we waver (Game 3 Boston under JM) I'll jump on your delusional band wagon.
Until then i will continue to assess the team i love as it plays out before me.
Yeah we clinched a play off spot and yeah we've won our fair share of games recently.
But none of you are going to convince me we are playing good hockey right now.
Not close to what it is going to take to go far in the real season.

Scotty Bowman watches a lot more games than you think, and I would probably trust his opinion over a fan's opinion, even if he has only seen 1/10 of the games because he can see more in a minute than a fan sees in an entire game.

Habs cup - its in the BAG
So I'm supposed to believe a political tweet from Scotty Bowman over watching almost every single player on this team regress offensively?

It will be a hard fought series. I really believe in our chances. I hope Weiss-Prust-Moen will be back in time. Any news on these guys?

Fair enough.
Scotty watches a lot more games than i think. He has vested interests elsewhere and would be necessarily watching those games. My perception is mine alone. Do with it what you will.
i don't think the current edition of Les Glorieux is particularly well coached.
I also don't think despite our record we are playing a very good brand of hockey.
Go ahead and put your trust in Scotty's opinion and God Bless.
Fortunately i don't need Scotty sitting beside me during a game to explain what I'm seeing or even not seeing. I love hockey enough and am smart enough to know that a fan is not a completely reliable critic
particularly in the heat of the action. My assertations come from watching games and sequences of games multiple times. Some folks will see much of what i see and others perhaps none.
Isn't that the general idea of a sounding board?

it,s not the one loss,it's how they lose,we finally get comfortable with how there playing,especially this close to the playoffs,and then they play agame like that!it's enough to drive you insane.not a fan of pj stock but he was right yesterday when he said we have the same problem with 5 games left as we did at the beginning of the year.its your guess who shows up in the playoffs jekyll or hyde.

Dude what are u smoking ? He made a costly turnover, sure, but it's not a reason to be dramatic at this point, and definitely not a reason to conclude that he'll struggle in the playoffs...calm down.
