So, those fugly retro jerseys, now an 0-3 record. I believe they are scheduled for 3 more appearances so 3 more losses.
As for the wretched leaf, I will concede they are currently better only because they have a hot scorer but when the playoffs arrive they will be exposed as a one line team with a mediocre D and average goalie. There will be no Cup parade in Canada in 2021.
As for the Habs, they still have a ways to go. Their centers have to gain experience, Weber and Wagon have to go to the second pairing, Meat to the freezer (kudos above) and the coaching staff needs a serious upgrade. Hopefully Cole Caufield can bring his scoring ability to the NHL, the Habs sorely need it.
One thing I do not get, why is it so easy for opposition teams to play at the Bell Center? Since the beginning of the 2019-20 season the Habs are the second worse team in the entire league at home. Only Detroit is worse. It's not like they should be nervous to play at home in front of the fans these days. There aren't any. Back in the day, teams coming to the Forum would hope to keep the score respectable or maybe get a tie. Not any more, seems like it's an easy two points for most teams.
Year Wierd where the guy most likely to sit in CHarged CHair is leading the league with what have to be appreciated as near unstoppable goals. Why was the D Man not in Narcs grill like a golden helment Game ofThrones Style. I say lets shave the pors stach with ice cubes and frons cracked carbon fiber. Green Mo ve. I prevented an image that looked like a high intensity carbon creating operation from scoring.
Use this game to get your heads out of your asses. I'm looking at all but Andy and KK really. Though KK needs to play consistently like he did last night too.
Wow...Just re-watched the OT. 3 Habs watched Tcachuk walk out from behind the net, then he knelt down, tied his skate lace, he then went and signed an autograph for the maintanence guy, then he skated back in front of the net and took a couple of practice shots at Alain (just to get his angles right) before burying the winner. F. F. S!
To me it was Anderson. He was the only fresh legs on the ice and was too worried about sticking to his guy who was out near the point, when he was a couple of strides from keeping Tkachuk away from the front of the net. Oh well c'est la vie. The more we lose, the more chance I like to think that CJv2.0's days behind the bench are numbered. Whether or not that's true, it's what keeps me going.
Maybe the Habs should replace Julien with Daniele Sauvageau. Maybe if the players had a 'mom' yelling at them to clean up their mess, it would be more effective.
I am not a huge CLOD fan but he is a reasonable coach, we could get in Herb Brooks DNA crossed with Scotty Bowman and the Gipper and I doubt the result would be much different. Clod will adjust. The biggest thing that has happended is the other teams have killed our team speed forward, and feasted on our lack of team speed backwards. St louis won the cup with a d that was slower than our current one. I believe we are just having birth pangs from popping out UTES like we had an UZI on the farm. We have nothing but UTE down the middle except for Dano who seems to be having a mid life crisis at age 27.
TSN tonight so no Gawley. Mudryk is busy at the Scotties so we'll get TSN690's Dan Robertson I think. Dan's a fine Blue Noser. Used to call the Moosehead games here in NS.
Just win. Or don't. My level of care is drastically diminished.
DO NOT NO DONUTS IN OUR NO CENTER WORLD watCH Dark. We are having the same experience as the actors on that show. There is no center, no one is in control and time runs wild and next thing you know you have missed the playoffs again, and got a draft pick that is not a bust but if they made one it would be paper MaCHe
I'll probably put it on in the background with the sound off. No commentary. I'm sick of listening to all that crap. I'm sure all you FHFolks have heard and read all the julien talk. I've refained from commenting because my feelings on the matter are no secret. The only thing I'll say, and I'll stand corrected if wrong, didn't they play much better after julien left the bubble with health issues and Muller took over? As Stan Lee used to say: "Nuff said."
BTW, it's very refreshing to have no sound on. No more listening to no talent hacks trying to call a game and trying to grab the remote to hit the mute button when they play 50 annoying commercials.
Well I tuned in just as JD made it 3-2 and watched the rest. Far too angry about the W being stolen by Tronna. I can't imagine how the team feels though I saw Gallagher's presser and he was visibly frustrated and perplexed.
If someone in that organization doesn't raise this obvious bias against the Habs to the league well we might as well forget about ever succeeding.
And yeah the 4th goal was a total stinker but apparently he made a number of amazing saves before I tuned in.
I'm just so pissed @ the war room right now. FUCK!
Said it many times over many years the tranna bias, be it media, war room or scheduled television nationally, runs very deep. It will never get better. Molson needs to speak up loudly. Take a million dollar fine, pay and then donate another million to youth hockey.
DD and Alex Burrows now in charge. Hopefully the players respond otherwise the Jets are licking their chops waiting for a mentally weak opponent. And for pity's sake nail Price to the bench for a while.
Halifax Moosehead Memorial Cup winning coach Dom DuCHarme is in charge! I think he'll turn this team around. First test will be to see where he puts Da'Non' in the lineup. And it'll be interesting to see what Burrows brings to the team. I'm looking forward to this change.
And if he could find a way to figure out exactly when Price is going to let that soft one in each game and make some sort of adjustment...
Hmm, did Toronto do us a favour? If that buzzer beater counts and Habs get the W, does MB still can him today? I remember Gainey firing Carbo after a big W in Dallas, but Bergy ain't Gainey. Anyway from upthread "The more we lose, the more chance I like to think that CJv2.0's days behind the bench are numbered. Whether or not that's true, it's what keeps me going." So I'm keeping going!
Nilan on TSN690 saying it was obvious Julien had lost the room. Says Czar is a major center-piece of the future that was getting hung out to dry and needs to be brought along more carefully, or he'll falter. I heartily agree.
I never wanted Claude back here, too many bad memories of his broonz dirty tactics and some of his fucking goons manhandling players at the end of games the b's were losing. Good riddance. Captain Kirk will always be one of my favourite Habs of all time. I too thank him for his time as a coach as well as a player but every coach has a shelf life. The fucked up and biased 'war room' probably did us a favour last night as it sped up a needed change. I still have hope the Habs can turn things around but the player deployment needs to change ASAP.
Players like Suzuki and KK, the future of this franchise need to play a lot and not be afraid to make a mistake. Give KK Gallagher and Toffoli. Make Evans the #3 center. Bring up Frolik and sit out Byron. Put Weber on the second pair with a younger quicker defenceman. Put Chariot on the 3rd pair. Bring up Cale Fleury. Play Allen a lot.
Let's be patient with Ducharme and Burrows as they try to turn the bow of the Titanic from the iceberg. I'm actually looking forward to the Jets games now to see if things can improve.
We've ripped him in the past, mainly for good reasons, but DGMB is impressive in his new attitude and how he answers media questions. I missed part of CHarm's presser but let's see if he can put the team in a higher gear.
Tiger get well soon your lucky to be alive bro. As for the buzz he had a buzz I am going not down that road, I think not. But why did he swerve into the wrong lane and get launched 100 feet into the rough. He saw a golden bear in his path.
Brian Wilde has mentioned it a few times. bergy has brought in 5! really good hockey players. There is no reason this team should flounder. Scotty Bowman said: The secret to coaching is correctly deploying the right players at the right time. He doubled shifted Lafleur all the time. Play the fuck out of your best players. The leaf don't roll 4 lines they play the crap out of narcos and midget. Look where they are at the moment. Here's hoping DD does the same with his young guns. No more 'playing not lose'.
WatCH the first leaf goal last night, that is goal tender interfernece and guess what, good goal.
DD is a radical thinker. he will line up 6 players at the red line for the opening face off yes six, he will not dress a goalie also adopts rugby rules, no forward passing
So, those fugly retro jerseys, now an 0-3 record. I believe they are scheduled for 3 more appearances so 3 more losses.

ReplyDeleteThink I'll skip tonight and start WandVision. I've heard good things.
ReplyDeleteIs it on Disney+ ?
DeleteYep
DeleteI forgot Viper starts tonight, they got a chance...
ReplyDeleteA&W, Bitburger 0%

A bit late....Garry gawley = mute and I'll try syncing 690.
ReplyDeleteRDS
DeleteJust fucking win... Stay outta the box and Go You Fucking Habs Go!
ReplyDeleteI like Wanda Vision. Really different from the MCU. 6 Eps in and starting to get some explanation.
ReplyDeleteIs it just me or is the reffing completely stupid and/or biaswd against the Habs? --SiM
ReplyDeleteThat was a rotten bunch of sloppiness by the Habs in the 2nd period. BBQ looks lost. --SiM
ReplyDeleteHey that perfectly describes the 2nd Sens goal.
DeleteOh for fuck's sakes' fuck's sake!! --SiM
ReplyDeleteWas the two-hour bus trip to Ottawa THAT shitty? Come the fuck on, boys! --SiM
ReplyDeleteCash it!! --SiM
ReplyDeleteNature is making bad decisions now. We're doomed. --SiM
ReplyDeletePerry 2-2.
ReplyDeleteCHommodore!! Yes! --SiM
ReplyDeletePear eh!?
ReplyDeletePomme keeps it even. --SiM
ReplyDeleteOT. Play only Meat and Dish on D, not BBQ. But we know our Claude. I call Lip. --SiM
ReplyDeletePomme!! --SiM
ReplyDeleteOuf.
ReplyDeleteDamn...my phone told me we lost a minute before I saw it.
ReplyDeleteShit. Again, a puck bounce off Czar this time that goes the other way. Pomme deserved better. --SiM
ReplyDeleteI am one more shit game from making the " Claude's lost the room" call...
ReplyDeleteWow...Just re-watched the OT. 3 Habs watched Tcachuk walk out from behind the net, then he knelt down, tied his skate lace, he then went and signed an autograph for the maintanence guy, then he skated back in front of the net and took a couple of practice shots at Alain (just to get his angles right) before burying the winner. F. F. S!
ReplyDeleteI know eh? I think Czar was gassed and couldn't get off. --SiM
DeleteSeriously, in a situation like that, if I was Czar, I would try to swat at and ice the puck. Claude still had his TO available. --SiM
DeleteTo me it was Anderson. He was the only fresh legs on the ice and was too worried about sticking to his guy who was out near the point, when he was a couple of strides from keeping Tkachuk away from the front of the net.

ReplyDeleteJust win. Or don't. My level of care is drastically diminished.
Fan or not, all the best to 🐯. Pretty bad looking crash.
ReplyDeleteI have curling this evening. I won't be pvring this game or rushing home. Just tune in when I get back...maybe. It is what it is.

ReplyDeleteOh yeah, attitude my ass. Fix the fucking power play and penalty kill and maybe you can win some games. That's a coaching problem.
DeleteI gotta new acrroynm for the sidebar...STFOTB= Stay the fuck outta the box...
ReplyDeleteNoice
DeleteAnd a new profile name... Thanks Moe!
DeleteVery noice
DeleteFull on day tomorrow so no late night for me. GYFHG... JFW... STFOTB!
ReplyDeleteBad start, 1-0 Sens
ReplyDeleteI'm starting to think Jsck Todd is right. This tesm needs King Patrick to come in and coach it. --SiM
ReplyDeleteKing Patrick?? Shit, and I ain't smokin or drinkin nothin! Saint Patrick FFS --SiM
DeleteAnd of course, the requisite 2 min. penalty on KidKoho for throwing a check no one else gets penalized for. --SiM
ReplyDeleteWell, that wasn't a hit to the head but definitely a hit from behind.
DeleteYeah I guess, and his skates weren't on the ice. --SiM
Delete2-0
ReplyDeleteDid you see Clod looking at ancestors dot com on his phone. Turns out his DNA is same as a fruit fly at this momment.
ReplyDeleteI am now sure that Montreal should have picked Brady Tkachuk 3rd in 2019 instead of J.K.
ReplyDelete*2018*
DeleteBBQ 2-1
ReplyDeleteCan one player save his coach's ass? Tune in later to find out. --SiM
DeleteFrom bad to worse.
ReplyDelete3-1
ReplyDeleteDruid 3-2
ReplyDeleteDruid! GYFHG--SIM
ReplyDeleteBBQ 3-3 !
ReplyDeleteI think Matt Murray's not sorry it didn't hit him, actually. --SiM
DeleteBBQ!! --SiM
ReplyDeleteThats why the best BBQ is a WEBER
ReplyDeleteIs there a cab idling outside the Canadian Tire Center waiting to take cj back to Montreal when this is over?
ReplyDeleteThe way the first period was going, I was about to suggest Claude might want tk hand in his resignation between periods. --SiM
DeleteCssh it! --SiM
ReplyDelete1 PPG for the last 20 now is it? --SiM
DeleteCpt Kirk your fired, 8 years of futility on the PP. Ottawa looks like the Gretzeky era oils with no talent.
ReplyDeletePretty much. Not every great player is an effective coach. Carbo however...
DeleteBTW, it's very refreshing to have no sound on. No more listening to no talent hacks trying to call a game and trying to grab the remote to hit the mute button when they play 50 annoying commercials.
ReplyDeleteTheir attitude looks better tonight.
ReplyDeleteHowever, that's just a lame excuse for a coach who is out of ideas. Or solutions.
Toffee/Tyder!! GYFHG --SiM
ReplyDeleteFuck --SiM
ReplyDeleteTFS was simply abominable on that. Is he dick of the CJV2 experiment? Ouf --SiM
DeleteHeh heh, Price trying to get julien fired...
ReplyDeleteHe got AF fired so there is a precedent.
Just noticed, Bergevin is dressed for the prom. --SiM
ReplyDeleteChia for the win.
ReplyDeleteMight be KidA
DeleteGYFHG!! --SiM
ReplyDeleteReview says no goal
DeleteWar room strikes again, they hate the Habs
DeleteSend the cabbie home...
ReplyDeleteMaybe not
DeleteSo what was the reason for no goal?
ReplyDeleteSupposed goalie interference
DeleteNot called by refs, no request by the Sens, a 100% decision to review and disallow by the biased war room.
DeleteWow. Thanks
DeleteAnother L. If they want a chance to make the playoffs they better turn the net over to the Snake. Price stinks.
ReplyDeleteWell I tuned in just as JD made it 3-2 and watched the rest. Far too angry about the W being stolen by Tronna. I can't imagine how the team feels though I saw Gallagher's presser and he was visibly frustrated and perplexed.

W stolen from Habs by COTU. But they are playing poorly, need coaching change. I am now convinced. --SiM
ReplyDeleteSaid it many times over many years the tranna bias, be it media, war room or scheduled television nationally, runs very deep. It will never get better. Molson needs to speak up loudly. Take a million dollar fine, pay and then donate another million to youth hockey.
ReplyDeleteDD is the New coach.
ReplyDeleteJulien and Müller gone.
Really? For the best

DeleteNever like to see good people let go, so thanks to Claude and Kirk for being part of the CH.
ReplyDeleteI think it is a move that needed to be made. I was a bit surprised CJv2 came back this season but I'm glad his health was good enough to do so.
I like CHarm and Burr has been getting good reviews in the AHL.
Time will tell.
Just make the fucking playoffs !
Hmmm...guess the room was lost after all...
ReplyDeleteI never wanted Claude back here, too many bad memories of his broonz dirty tactics and some of his fucking goons manhandling players at the end of games the b's were losing. Good riddance.
