Absolute clutch to comeback against a strong team for that important point, despite signs of fatigue. Totally agree the break can’t come fast enough. I’m trying to stay objective about Dobes and reserve judgement until the sample is larger, but man he was amazing in the 3rd period!
Laine looked to be labouring last night. As usual, Habs don't quit. I'm happy the 4 Nations tourney will provide a break. I'm exhausted and I'm just a spectator.
Thinking outside of the box here. A reason that a lot of Habs are taking a lot of penalty minutes maybe that these guys love being in Montreal and don’t want to leave. Montreal’s new system is finally kicking in to these players psyche and ability. They are trying very hard to be productive and to stay in Montreal. These penalties are not only learning curves but desperation moves. Montreal is now and is becoming a place to be for players. Thoughts?
Habs need Matheson gone this Summer He is not a good reliable D for Hutson often passing to Hutson into pressure situation If I was Hutson I’d be tired too playing D with Matheson Offensively his shots either get blocked by shingards or miss the net completely if they aren’t the easiest of saves / Arber, Ghule, Carrier, Hutson, Strubble hell even Savard get shots through on net Playing too many minutes on PK I’d rather see Arber or even Hutson on PK Hutson can already play beater defensively With Ghule & Hutson clearly top 4 LD Matheson is the odd man out at LD no way I’m moving the Sheriff RD Carrier is playing well, Savard should re-sign 1-2 years team friendly deal DAD on the team Stanlet cup winner basically a coach out there, even if he stays as 6-7th depth I would rather see Mailloux on this line up today than Matheson Never mind when Reinbacher is at full health & ready Yeah Matheson can score on a breakaway onsite twice a year, but how many does he give up? Not just talking about last night’s People blaming Laine’s pass, pass was on Matheson’s stick, Matheson kept skating wide instead of turning into the pass, then his lack of effort to regain control got out worked not by one Devils but by both of the forwards basically gave 2 -0 breakaway Yes the team needs this 4 nations break to rest up, I’m sure they are banged up and can use that time to recharge and bear down on the rest of season to push for playoffs That’s my rant I’m sure Matheson is a great guy, but if in charge of roster construction I’m looking to move him. Vancouver is dying for a puck moving D Trade Matheson for a Dakota Joshua big bruising body / speed / grit / scoring touch can play on bottom 9 Something like that Gally needs to go as well soon maybe to LA to play with Danault / Habs retain 1/2 Bergevin is there maybe he talks Rob Blake into it, the return doesn’t have to be great just opening up a spot for young kids is huge rather pay half his salary and spend the other 1/2 on a couple of ELC’s Keep Andy around his contract is high but he is embracing his role Resign Evans possibly Armia too Send DVO at deadline he is the one UFA not coming back for sure Beck or Newhook can play 3C Heineman / Roy / Boulett can play up on 2nd LW Kapanen too at 3C once his season is done
The Canadiens need to show up for the first period. They are making the games much harder on themselves and the goal tenders. The habs can skate hard and fast, move the puck fast. Cole's goal production has decreased and the power play needs to be adjusted. Don't just focus on Pat Laine. Thanks Kevin
If that’s your take that it’s just about Laine or my focus was just on him…I don’t know what to say. I gave my positive take on why everything you point out is happening and why it shouldn’t be concerning to the point of panic. Cheers
Great Show Shaun 👏
Keep it up 💯
thanks Russ!!

Dobes is a gamer! Once he gets his nerves and mind so slow down he will level up
Hey Shaun. Great stream. I dropped a super chat but didn't see it. Just a glitch I guess. Go habs go
SPUD!!! What's up brother? When does Dobes play again

He is
not a good reliable D for Hutson often passing to Hutson into pressure situation
If I was Hutson I’d be tired too playing D with Matheson
Offensively his shots either get blocked by shingards or miss the net completely if they aren’t the easiest of saves / Arber, Ghule, Carrier, Hutson, Strubble hell even Savard get shots through on net
Playing too many minutes on PK I’d rather see Arber or even Hutson on PK
Hutson can already play beater defensively
With Ghule & Hutson clearly top 4 LD Matheson is the odd man out at LD no way I’m moving the Sheriff
RD Carrier is playing well, Savard should re-sign 1-2 years team friendly deal DAD on the team Stanlet cup winner basically a coach out there, even if he stays as 6-7th depth
I would rather see Mailloux on this line up today than Matheson
Never mind when Reinbacher is at full health & ready

I’m sure they are banged up and can use that time to recharge and bear down on the rest of season to push for playoffs
That’s my rant

Trade Matheson for a Dakota Joshua big bruising body / speed / grit / scoring touch can play on bottom 9
Something like that
Gally needs to go as well soon maybe to LA to play with Danault / Habs retain 1/2 Bergevin is there maybe he talks Rob Blake into it, the return doesn’t have to be great just opening up a spot for young kids is huge rather pay half his salary and spend the other 1/2 on a couple of ELC’s
Keep Andy around his contract is high but he is embracing his role
Resign Evans possibly Armia too
Send DVO at deadline he is the one UFA not coming back for sure
Beck or Newhook can play 3C
Heineman / Roy / Boulett can play up on 2nd LW
Kapanen too at 3C once his season is done
dude...awesome! Great takes
i think dobes needs to play more dureing this stretch and trade for another 2nd line forward wouldnt hurt either
