Habs UNBEATEN in OT, Formula Not Ideal, But it’s WORKING So Far…
Montreal Canadiens beat the Ottawa Senators 4-3 in overtime, Alex Newhook scores overtime winner for Habs. Canadiens are 5-0-0 in overtime so far this season.
Habs goal scorers Cole Caufield, Juraj Slafkovsky, Ivan Demidov and Alex Newhook.
VIDEO OMMISSION: I didn't even see the Struble/Cousins fight until AFTER I uploaded the video. Struby did well defending that dirty slash from Cousins on Demidov from the pre-season. Love how this team sticks up for each other and it doesn't always need to be Arber! ANDDDDDDD Bolduc hit SANDERSON not McDermaid, GEEEEZ! (hockey junkie reference) My bad, friends… :/
I get that it’s not sustainable winning games in OT after blowing Leafs all the time. However, is it just me or they’re always getting a FLUKY goal scored against them in almost every game. I guarentee with the quality of the game they played, if you played this game 10 times, they would’ve EASILY won in regulation 9 times out of 10. Go Habs Go!
The boys are clicking along right now. Like to see fewer OT games and bracing myself for the inevitable slump that has to come sooner or later. But for now they are showing us some great hockey ! This ones for you Dekes ; Matheson is playing better as of late but that tying goal was as much on him as it was on Dodson. Matheson as he so often does was late getting back after getting caught too deep in Ottawas end. Mc Dermot or whatever his name is is due for an attitude adjustment. And good on Arber for resisting the temptation last night. When we're comfortably in the lead is the right time to tune him up. GHG
If you go in overtime for the 82 games….. You will have a minimum of 82 points….on that 82 overtimes if you win 20 of them(1/4) you finish with 102 points!!! Not a So "not ideal" way to go in playoffs!!
Can't keep going to the well, comes back and bites you. Blowing a 3 and 2 goal leads in back to back games? I'll give them a pass, young team and hopefully can correct it. As for Monty, first 2 goals not his fault but the third should have never gone in. A good outcome after all.
We appreciate the compassion and empathy you feel towards the horrors that occur each day around the world. It is one thing if it is a disaster caused by Mother Nature, but tragedies created by decisions by humans against other humans, is truly incomprehensible to understand. Always follow your heart Andrew, plus it's your channel, you do you! As for the game, as you said, not the greatest way to win games but hey, we'll take it. I give credit to MSL giving Monty the net against Ott…he needs to get Monty's confidence back…not the greatest game for him but a win will help. MSL knows he needs Monty to have a successful season. As for the Stuzle goal…I agree Dobson has to come support Matheson…but these guys are still getting use to playing with one another…Dobson still not impressing me with his defense BUT, as time goes on, you can tell he is settling in so I'm giving it time. I feel Evans is really struggling so far this season…showing he is missing his partner Armia, and you can tell he Is still adjusting to playing w/Anderson & Gally. My hot take…with all the talk about Mtl needing a 2C…I think Hughes should work on finding help for the bottom 6 instead. As much as I had hoped Veleno would find his game…he is doing in Mtl what he has shown w/his other teams he's played on…flashes of high end skill, but the hockey sense/IQ is just not there. Bolduc needs a talented C to partner with…Dach has shown flashes, but that has been his MO since he's been a Hab. Patience is still the focus with Dach, but I feel that patience will quickly run out before the season is over. I feel the 2nd line is fine w/Kapanen, Demidov & Newhook…altho I'll keep harping on wishing to see Bolduc w/Demidov. It's unfortunate Gally who was given an offensive opportunity at the start of the season is back to being a bottom 6 player in MSL's eyes. Gally has definitely lost a step, but his heart & soul always bleeds bleu, blanc, rouge. I thought Xhekaj had himself a solid game…kept it simple, showed smarts not going after Cousins or accepting MacDermids fight request w/the score 2-0. We definitely miss Guhle but credit Xhekaj & Struble for doing a pretty good job till his return. This month of Nov will be super interesting to watch, starting Nov 8 vs NJ…watching this team play against more experienced, better structured teams, and more physical will be a big test in my eyes. It will either glaringly show the weaknesses this team has OR, that this team truly has taken another step forward…we shall soon see! Enjoy your trip to Montreal DD! Say Bonjour to Demidov for me! 😉 Go Habs Go!

I am very happy Newhook got the goal! Habs must, however, try to win in regulation time. Overtime, they always run the risk of losing.

We are winning in OT like it’s 1993 again.

Slafkovsky Juray is a big and strong player, he was selected for the playoffs.

Привет из России, у Монреаля супер молодежь, заставьте их работать, они могут больше, я верю
Praying for our Christian brothers and sisters in Nigeria and Sudan. 🙏
Leafs will break that OT streak Go leafs Go woo lol
Matheson is a beast. Pointe-Claire is proud of that guy!
Happy Habs are winning, but they need to win in regulation and not always in OT.
Bolduc didn’t check McDermid…
But McDermid did take exception to that check
Could it be the Habs have the personnel for three on three?
