its a fun series so far, anyone watching this just to see good hockey, man they are fun games. Both teams totally deserved to be there and play as such.
Outstanding fore=checking and back-checking on the part of Montreal. Their offensive attacks were solid in the first period and they kept it going off and on after that, but they'll have to keep the offensive attacks going for 3 solid periods in the following games if they are to win the series. Price was amazing. I somehow believe they can do it. Maybe the spirit of Maurice Richard is watching over them : )
I think that's just the way they play. A high-speed, mass offensive in the first period or two and, if they score a couple of goals, switching to defence. They just simply want to avoid unnecessary breakaway goals when they have a lead. They go back to offence if the score is tied, though.
Hey look at that, the Habs made adjustments and won game two. Shocker. Pietrangelo showed that he’s definitely a top d-man in the league. This guy almost made the comeback on his own.

@@49erfaithful86 I completely agree with you. Vegas is the favorite and in my option, one of the best teams in the league. I like that they are not top heavy like the Avs, oilers, and leafs. We all know what happened to those teams. What the Habs have going for them is a strong team concept and a goalie that elevates his game during the playoffs.

I think the OP was talking more about giving habs a little respect instead of screaming Sweep, weak division, weak rounds, etc. My brain is saying Vegas will win, but my heart is saying to keep faith in Montreal.
@@Nixonbutcher just because someone is Vgk fan doesn't mean they are new to hockey way before the knights we had a minor hockey team and they sold out a lot of games I used to be a penguins fan all my life but I was boring in Vegas so when Vegas got a NHL team I been a fan before they even played their first game so don't think everyone that's a vgk fan is new to hockey and besides that I played hockey on my high school team in Vegas
Yeah, if those opportunities would've come to fruition in the first period of game 1, it might've looked like a similar game to this one. While Vegas doesn't have much issue with trailing, it's clear Montreal plays best when ahead.
Good win by the Habs. That being said, there’s a lot a areas of their game they can work on and clean up. For instance, wayyy to many goals off D-Zone faceoffs since the beginning of the playoffs. The second Pietrangelo goal is a set play that Vegas has tried a few times now. Pietrangelo actually had a golden opportunity to score on the same play in Game 1 but the puck skipped over his blade. Habs should be looking at video and adjusting, especially if they keep icing the puck this often.
@@maximiliengaudreau4038 Yeah, they tried. All they ended up doing was screening Price. The problem with blocking in this situation is that all Habs players are between the faceoff dot and the goal after a lost faceoff. Blocks are a lot safer when attempted further away from the net, because if they're unsuccessful, the goalie still has some time to respond. An unsuccessful block from 10 feet in front of Price is extremely dangerous. So instead of doing this, they have to do a better box-out on lost defensive-zone draws. That way, if the d-man takes the point shot, Price can see it all the way, and what he can see, he can stop. This will have the effect of forcing the defenseman (Pietrangelo both times) to fake the shot and try a pass, work the cycle, etc. And that's making Vegas play the way Montreal wants them to play (Montreal has been money at creating turnovers in their own end, and especially good at disrupting the puck cycle). So yes, this needs fixing. But if they hadn't been exhausted because of the mandated no-change following icing, I think (at least) one of these goals doesn't happen. You can see the Habs just...standing around in their zone after Nick loses the draw. They had no energy to do anything else. So...they absolutely MUST work on their zone exits so that icings are less commonplace.
I'm only here to witness the salty Leafs and Jets fans go silent after spamming ''VEGAS IN 4, SCABS SUCK'' under the last highlight video And that's coming from a Vegas fan, lol

Не хватало Стивенсона. Первый период дурака валяли, практически не бросали. Смит- Карлссон- Маршессо пока мало заметны. В Монреале надо побеждать. Уверен, Дебур что-нибудь придумает...
The Habs earned this one no doubt. VGK didn't turn up the heat until it was too late. VGK seemed too disjointed and lackadaisical for most of the game. The addition of Petry, Merill, and Danault's face off ability definitely helped with Stephenson out of the mix. With that said, Go Knights Go! Let's get it back!
Danault took one offensive zone draw...and SEVENTEEN defensive zone draws. Guy's a LEGEND (he won 61% of his faceoffs tonight). He may not contribute much on the scoresheet, but I think without him, the Habs would've been in serious trouble tonight.

Yes! Also delivered a stunning check earlier in the game - goodness, even little 'smurf' Suzuki did too. What's gotten into these forwards? They want it - this is the kind of all out effort it takes to win playoff games!
The refs and/or the league definitely have an agenda here. What do they gain from letting a team that sells out regardless of performance win? Luckily, Habs pulled out a big one today.
1)The refs must forget they have a whistle half the time because spearing a guy when he's down *REALLY* calls for a penalty 2) 6:20 This had potential to be the most awe inducing thing 3) Jeff Petry's eyes scare me. A lot. Lmao
Price and Fleury are both good. Price is better because he gets in the heads of oppenents. Hey where did all those Vegas fans go saying the north are not nhl calibre teams.
Vegas’ fans are all bandwagon tourists who are visiting the city, so no they don’t even have real fans. Vegas residents probably don’t even know what’s a puck 😂
This is an insane effort from Montreal, two of our Centre's are 20 and 21😳 I could go on... Imagine if they had a tad more experience. So proud of the whole team, I'll admit I wrote them off just before game 5 against Toronto! How wrong I was.

Hats off to both goalies solid performances
Habs silenced all the posters from last game excessively boasting about Vegas.
Still a lot of hockey left to play, Vegas dropped 4 on Price in game 1 and Habs dropped 3 on Fleury tonight, this is an interesting series so far. I'm not panicking for my Knights tho, especially cuz we have Fleury.
@@49erfaithful86 this will be a great series but the vast majority of goals on price were through screens and lucky bounces if vegas wants to win they have to score on price the way montreal scored on fleury tonight
@@49erfaithful86 I completely agree with you. Vegas is the favorite and in my option, one of the best teams in the league. I like that they are not top heavy like the Avs, oilers, and leafs. We all know what happened to those teams.
What the Habs have going for them is a strong team concept and a goalie that elevates his game during the playoffs.
@@mikedi7850 That's almost impossible though.
You need screens and lucky bounces to beat Price.
@@49erfaithful86 I don't think there's a question of panicking, Vegas is definitely a solid team. I think the OP was talking more about giving habs a little respect instead of screaming Sweep, weak division, weak rounds, etc. My brain is saying Vegas will win, but my heart is saying to keep faith in Montreal.
As Steve dangle says, “That is it for this one, thanks for watching.” Go habs Go 🔴🔵⚪️
Price is insane
Montreal deserved the win. If they can score first they're awesome.
Price is otherworldly...I mean he's dialed in. So fun to watch him make saves.
3k people at the bell center will feel better than thoses 20k
Still. Unfair. There is always an unfair treatment of Canadian teams in the playoffs. This year, it's having an audience.
Bring Canada back to the finals let’s go Habs bring that cup home
I''ll be really happy if they get that loser's trophy.
For the North!
would love to see Canada in the finals, just not the habs

Are you a new hockey fan?
@@Nixonbutcher just because someone is Vgk fan doesn't mean they are new to hockey way before the knights we had a minor hockey team and they sold out a lot of games I used to be a penguins fan all my life but I was boring in Vegas so when Vegas got a NHL team I been a fan before they even played their first game so don't think everyone that's a vgk fan is new to hockey and besides that I played hockey on my high school team in Vegas
@@teddymalec2677 good i don't care
@@teddymalec2677 exactly
Just lost for words. As an impartial fan of the playoffs this is just great hockey. Good luck to the final four.
Habs played two pretty decent road games all told. Game 1 got away mid way through, but they got the goals early tonight.
Yeah, if those opportunities would've come to fruition in the first period of game 1, it might've looked like a similar game to this one. While Vegas doesn't have much issue with trailing, it's clear Montreal plays best when ahead.

Hi Timeworks! I didn’t know you were into hockey 🏒
Hello Timeworks
I didn’t know Timeworks watched hockey. MTL or Vegas?
@@HAA0603 mtl cuz im canadian lol. i think both are great though
@@Timeworks hey, I’m Canadian as well! I’m a Ottawa Senators fan, but I’m cheering for the Habs cause Canada’s cup drought is like 28 years, jeez.
Canes fan here. Montreal is my second team…Everyone needs a Canadian team, eh?
Funny enough habs are my 1 team and the canes are my 2, love the culture the canes and rod the bod are building the last few years
@@tylercassidy9426 I become a Habs fan when they traveled to Carolina in the 2002 Eastern Conference Finals. Great fans.
Great. Loved going on the road to Raleigh for a game in '19. Hope to do it again. Canes fans were a hoot 🍁
The Habs are the most likeable team remaining in my book. I hope they csn finish the Knights off quickly.
4:18 when you try the flying poke check as a goalie in nhl 21
Good win by the Habs. That being said, there’s a lot a areas of their game they can work on and clean up.
For instance, wayyy to many goals off D-Zone faceoffs since the beginning of the playoffs. The second Pietrangelo goal is a set play that Vegas has tried a few times now. Pietrangelo actually had a golden opportunity to score on the same play in Game 1 but the puck skipped over his blade. Habs should be looking at video and adjusting, especially if they keep icing the puck this often.
I wanna bring myself to cheer for the habs but it was a tough lose and i’m still very bitter about it. Not yet. They’ve gotta really impress.
Price wants his damn Cup! No matter who wins this series I hope the winner moves on to win it all.
One day you will understand that the Canadiens Jersey is bigger than any other f@(king team! Sooner or later Lord Stanley will come back home !!

I don't get it.
All Vegas's goals were score on a faceoff after an icing
The Habs are going to have to find a way to fix that.
Vegas’s d-men have been lethal this series.
@@TheArcher143 just block the fu**ing shot of pietrangelo
@@maximiliengaudreau4038 Basically.
@@maximiliengaudreau4038 haha never did 🤣
@@maximiliengaudreau4038 Yeah, they tried. All they ended up doing was screening Price. The problem with blocking in this situation is that all Habs players are between the faceoff dot and the goal after a lost faceoff. Blocks are a lot safer when attempted further away from the net, because if they're unsuccessful, the goalie still has some time to respond. An unsuccessful block from 10 feet in front of Price is extremely dangerous. So instead of doing this, they have to do a better box-out on lost defensive-zone draws. That way, if the d-man takes the point shot, Price can see it all the way, and what he can see, he can stop. This will have the effect of forcing the defenseman (Pietrangelo both times) to fake the shot and try a pass, work the cycle, etc. And that's making Vegas play the way Montreal wants them to play (Montreal has been money at creating turnovers in their own end, and especially good at disrupting the puck cycle).
So yes, this needs fixing. But if they hadn't been exhausted because of the mandated no-change following icing, I think (at least) one of these goals doesn't happen. You can see the Habs just...standing around in their zone after Nick loses the draw. They had no energy to do anything else. So...they absolutely MUST work on their zone exits so that icings are less commonplace.
Its hard enough beating the VGK but having to beat both them and the refs. Good win Habs!
I'm only here to witness the salty Leafs and Jets fans go silent after spamming ''VEGAS IN 4, SCABS SUCK'' under the last highlight video
And that's coming from a Vegas fan, lol
*Habs
Yes he knows it’s the habs he was just saying that’s what leaf fans said . I’m guessing when someone tells you a joke they have to explain the punchline
I'm a lifelong Leafs fan, I want Mtl to win just so I can feel like my team lost to the best team. And because of Price if I'm honest.

Классный хоккей. Thanks guys for beautiful hockey.
Montreal gonna cost me a lot of money if they win this series, but it’ll almost be worth it
leafs fan jumping on the habs wagon! You're playing awesome
You're never in trouble til you lose at home...
Especially since it was Game 2. Now the series shifts to Montréal.
Pietro is so good at getting pucks through. I love his game. He was a beast last night.
The Habs earned this one no doubt. VGK didn't turn up the heat until it was too late. VGK seemed too disjointed and lackadaisical for most of the game.
The addition of Petry, Merill, and Danault's face off ability definitely helped with Stephenson out of the mix. With that said, Go Knights Go! Let's get it back!
Danault took one offensive zone draw...and SEVENTEEN defensive zone draws. Guy's a LEGEND (he won 61% of his faceoffs tonight). He may not contribute much on the scoresheet, but I think without him, the Habs would've been in serious trouble tonight.
Habs fan here, are you following Vegas since the beginning? I mean is hockey new for you? How do you like that?
Cheers!
@@JOE_XD Me? I've followed VGK since their inception and have watched/played hockey since the 90's so I'm not a bandwagoneer. Loved watching Roy, Sakic, Forsberg, and all the greats of that era. My wife and I love visiting Vegas so it just happened to be a great time/fit when VGK came in to the league.
@@mtbrickhouse6292 Cool! Ok so you're not from Vegas, you knew hockey before and played, from US or Can? Tryin' to chat with a new hockey fan, a new knights fan.. If there is any.. XD Just joking... Go Habs Go! :P
@@JOE_XD I'm in the US. Always had a soft spot for hockey ever since transitioning from traditional US sports like soccer and baseball growing up. Loved playing as a defenseman but would often get put in as a winger. LOL. Marchessault's my fav from VGK. Small in stature but he's got a big heart and hustles.
Surprised but very happy to see Knights fans and Habs haters are able to not trash talk nonsense for no reason. Good on you.
As a Toronto fan, go Habs!
Didn’t even include Toffoli’s diving tip to save the game for Montreal
Yes! Also delivered a stunning check earlier in the game - goodness, even little 'smurf' Suzuki did too. What's gotten into these forwards? They want it - this is the kind of all out effort it takes to win playoff games!
The refs and/or the league definitely have an agenda here. What do they gain from letting a team that sells out regardless of performance win? Luckily, Habs pulled out a big one today.
I totally agree with you. Its disgusting
Definitely agree NHL wants a Vegas Tampa Cup. Too bad its gonna be Habs and Islanders
@Dr Funke Yes cause cross checking Edmondson in the numbers into the boards isn't penalty worthy you damn goldfish
@@malekiththeeternityking5433 I've seen that play probably 7 times these playoffs from different teams. They are letting LOTS of penalties go.
Holy,...Carey Price and the Habs on FIRE
1)The refs must forget they have a whistle half the time because spearing a guy when he's down *REALLY* calls for a penalty
2) 6:20 This had potential to be the most awe inducing thing
3) Jeff Petry's eyes scare me. A lot. Lmao

''Breakaway Byron''
@@rocosuavez yes ... thank you Ricardo ..."Breakthrough Byron" ...Byron doesn't have to buy a goal ...he earns it, the hard way :))
First off, we gotta ice less and win the draws cuz it seems like the only way Vegas scores is off a draw and a slapshot.
Price and Fleury are both good. Price is better because he gets in the heads of oppenents. Hey where did all those Vegas fans go saying the north are not nhl calibre teams.
Just wondering...who the hell roots for vegas (except their fans)? The underdog story is always more exciting
Vegas’ fans are all bandwagon tourists who are visiting the city, so no they don’t even have real fans. Vegas residents probably don’t even know what’s a puck 😂
Lots of people don’t like Montreal because they’re a huge franchise and have had a lot of success in the past.
