Lack of desire, work ethic and intensity will trump even the most skilled players.

With his stats and Price's stats that game would have been decided in the first period. In favor of Price.

Re-watching the game now, really happy with the response from the team after a blowout loss and after being down big in the game, it speaks volumes about the character of the team.

Mitchell on the wing is interesting. Not ideal, just interesting.
I want to see Flash with Galchenyuk. Eller with DD looks like a much better fit to me.

Whoa.
That was a great comeback and character game. You could feel the Habs coming back to life just a little before Larry's goal. Once he scored I had a funny feeling we were going to open the floodgates. Really liked what I saw from the team last night. Everyone seemed to be working their tails off after that first one. Everyone but.... Semin! Who was just terrible and after that boneheaded penalty I got my pitchfork out. Rip Sasha, your days as a Hab are all but over. (I think he pretty much knew it judging from his slumped position in the box looking at the ground)

We're creatures of momentum, it appears. Sure other teams are affected by momentum, but when the other team has it - the Habs look terrible. Maybe its the pressure of the Bell Centre - all I know is I wish they'd come up with a way of gaining the edge in play, when they are down like that. This team is it's own worst enemy sometimes - they seem to get up in their own heads, if that makes sense.
After Eller scored, Petry and Gilbert - and others - threw big hits. Then Max scored - suddenly the team looked like the team we watched at the beginning of the season, again.
How to gain that momentum without a goal, though? A fight? We're not built for that... A big hit? That could do it - I've seen that fire this team up this season. Maybe the coaching staff needs to come up with ways to motivate the team better, because they looked horrible.
Until the momentum shifted.

To be fair, you could see the Habs getting more engaged in the play just before Larry's goal. Started moving their legs, throwing hits and reading plays.
But that's a valid point you're making.

Without deviation progress is not possible
Momentum is an unquantafiable but very real occurrence. Coming back from down 3 is as good as it gets.
I'll have to go back and look for that - see what caused it. Perhaps someone said something on the bench?
Maybe we can solve this mystery - get our names on the cup...

It's never really explainable. But that was a really exciting game.
Comebacks are the best.

DD has been great there though?
Edit: Just saw your posts on the Eller thread, makes sense now.
