Romanov for Dach. Mailloux for Bolduc. Rebuild permanently short-circuited. Hugo's trade record is heavily in minus territory.
Time to unchain the wild Django slapper finn
How much time did Texier play in his own end? Classic 60 ft player!
Guys, those rose coloured glasses are blinding me. Take them off.
Matheson didnt have a bad Game he was only minus -1 -1 -1 for a change he is horrible Get rid of MSL Matheson and Gallagher to old to slow Its not Goaltending never has been the Offensive style Marty employs is the problem give us a new coach play Arber make denfence play defence and watch look at Edmonton all that fire power no cup.
For everyone who is shitting on Matheson……..you are not real fans. These guys play with their heart on their sweater, Matheson has saved countless goals with great plays over the past few seasons. These things happen, he didn't do it on purpose. Was the timing bad, yes but what are you going to do. Matheson is a SOLID defencemen and am glad he is a HAB.
No Anderson and no Xhekaj. The redwings were alot friskier with the habs. Struble only smiles.
It was a good game. Unfortunate set of circumstances. Dobie played amazing. GO HABS GO!!!!
Why was Mattheson trying to turn around rather than just continue skating behind the net. He must have known that DeBrinkat was right behind him.
Why was MSL hollering at Newhook…he should be doing the same to Matty
time to bring out Laine
3 out of 4 losses this is a horrible time to stumble
Switch Kapanen to center where he has been playing great and put Newhook's speed on the wing where he can get in quick on the fore check. Keep the faith and Go Habs Go!
Hopefully Fowler has a great game on Saturday.
Demidov and Kapanen are gassed. Somehow they need to be given a break.
Not sure why Bolduc is playing.
I blame Habsdigest for jinxing the 900 + save % wins earlier this week! 😜
Yeah Demidov doesn't get enough ice time, never has thanks to cement head Marty.Kapanen needs to practice his shooting , realize he's scored some and probably will reach 25 which is exceptional but he gets nice setups .of he had an additional mins such as Sheaffer and or Cellibrini and play with top tier players as they do , he'd be closing in on 75 points now and be a 90 point rookie.
I blame Matheson for falling and losing the puck , Evans missed a wide open net if he didn’t hit Gibson he would have missed on the other side of the net! Veleno is crap 💩! MSL had them play defensively in the third period when the Habs defensively are really bad compared to the rest of the nhl !! #1 MSL for being a shit coach !! #2 Matheson for blowing a tire 🛞 #3 Evans he couldn’t put the puck in the ocean if he was standing on the beach !!! I’m disgusted by this the Habs are NOT making the playoffs !!!
They gotta beat Isles with our last game in hand.
Jake Evans gave the puck away 3 times, missed an open net, terrible on penalty kill, can't hit, and he plays 17 minutes? There's a reason he was a 7th round pick!
Could Dobes stop sliding 10 feet beside the net?
Mike Matheson is bad most nights. Marty St Louis barking at his players like a petulant puppy? Give me a break. The coaching staff sucks and our record is because of of a hand fill of star players and Dobes. The team is too soft, no toughness. It’s open season on our crease. Our defensive system is unsustainable especially in the playoffs, oh but wait, the bias, arrogant Marty has favourites and that means the chemistry may be starting to slide.
So they lost to the Red Wings. They didn’t lose ground. All teams are in the same position. Fight for playoff position. They’ll be fine.
Good bounce bad bounce 😮 we could definitely miss the playoffs, Islanders coming up and piss off . Newhook not a good fit / chemistry on the second line again missing Slaf physicality 🙈
I said it at the time, matheson should not have been extended, he is not a top 4 on any legit contender, he has more turnovers than a bakery, carrier has been awful all year
Easy = boring… this is the type of playoff race that we fans should cherish… its stressful for sure but these are big games for both the habs and their opponents.. also not sure if u have ever noticed but the habs never win games by “a bunch of goals”…. Maybe once a year
When Dobes is your toughest player in front of the net, you have issues
Too much Mickey Mouse shit going on. This team has a long way to go if we’re thinking second round or even first.
#freeLaine
We have nothing to lose Valeno is a fing pilon , bring in Laine FFS
