Post-Game Talk: The Finn Armia win! Habs win 4-3 in SO vs NYI

[Tyson]

After that first period I had this game in the loss column. The Cardiac kids do it again!!!

 

[Adam Michaels]

And still without two consecutive losses in a row.... vos.... CANADIENS!

 

[Frenchy]

What the hell did I just watch?

a come from behind win

 

[sharks9]

Great win! Poor Kotka though, maybe stay late after a couple practices and work on your shootout moves

 

[26Mats]

Got to give it to Niemi, he struggled earlier in the game but he came up big in that shoot out.

And shut the door in the 2nd, 3rd, and OT, with a lot of big stops along the way.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Penalty all on Armia. Win all on Armia...well...not really. All on Niemi. Just so solid on shootouts.

Tying goal also had Armia at the root of it.

 

[ROEN]

Exciting ! And that's all I ever wanted ...

 

[le_sean]

Niemi just makes himself look big and doesn’t give anything in the shootout. Nothing fancy. Takes away the bottom part of the net.

 

[Grand Admiral Thrawn]

I have a feeling the only reason we won that game aside from Niemi's stellar goaltending in OT and especially in the SO, is simply because 80% of the OT was not 3 on 3.

 

[BrendanGallagher11]

Where the haters talking shit about niemi

He literally stole that game for us

 

[atrud66]

Georges Vezina Niemi

 

[BigHabs]

As soon as they got the second goal I was optimistic!

And when they tied it I thought to myself win or lose they were giving a 100% and were fun to watch!

Everyone can agree that no way last years team came back and won that game. They would of gave up when down 3-1.

I love the never quit instilled in this team. It’s going to win them a lot of games this year!

 

[PhysicX]

Imma just leave this here....

Ooooooooooooooooooofff

 

[OnTheRun]

Drouin had a good game.

...It kind of feel weird to write that.

 

[Tyson]

Last year’s Habs would have wilted like an unwatered flower in the Texas sun

 

[ahmedou]

They're utlimate warriors fairly enough

 

[Rapala]

Jeezus Niemi looked like a wall in the shootout

A lesson to be learned stop giving up those 2 on 1's and give them straight breakaways when Anti is in the nets.

 

[tooji]

Come back kids

 

[Tyson]

I have a feeling the only reason we won that game aside from Niemi's stellar goaltending in OT, is simply because 80% of the OT was not 3 on 3.

We’ll never know

Imma just leave this here....

yikes. that guy shld delete his account and cancel his internet service. then throw his computer out the window. and then take a nap. and then dream of being naked in a room full of people. and then wake up in a sudden panic and remember he knows nothing about hockey

 

[KingGallagherXI]

Armia: elite 4th liner, great PKer, even better in the shootout.

Armia is an elite 3rd liner. Anyone slightly better offensively than Armia would be a solid first liner.

 

[Deebs]

Where the haters talking **** about niemi

He literally stole that game for us

Not really but he played well enough. A decent 21 save game for him

 

[Whitesnake]

I was and still will be extremely critical of Drouin but tonight's Drouin was the Drouin that was picked as early as he was.

 

[M.C.G. 31]

This team keeps finding a way. So much better than last year.

Thanks for giving us Domi, Galchensuck.
