Go Habs Go!

[jalimon]

Haha Gaby il n'y aura AUCUN match à la porté des Habs cette saison. Ils vont devoir se battre bec et ongle pour gagner contre chaque équipe de la ligue.

Comme Yogi Berra as dis 'Il y en aura pas de facile!' (bon à part la petite julie derniere année d'université mais ca c'est pas pareil haha)

Cheers,

Pas pour te reprendre, mais cette expression vient plutôt d'un autre coach: Claude "Piton" Ruel !
It aiin't over till it"s over est une des expressions associées à Yogi Berra.

Yogi Berra was talking about baseball, not hockey, when he made that statement. Yogi also said that “50% of baseball is 90% mental.” I am not sure either statement applies to hockey. Hockey is a more physical sport whereas baseball is a more cerebral sport. In baseball, games are played for 9 innings and other than the pitchers, nobody is getting tired. In hockey the guys are skating up and down the ice and all the players are getting tired. Therefore in baseball it’s much easier to mount a comeback in late innings. In hockey things are more over when they look over than they are in baseball. So Yogi wasn’t talking about hockey.

Only 1 win in 4 games for the habless habs. People are already starting to panic. The defence is terrible. Suzuki is obviously not NHL-ready and should be sent down to the minors. Price hasn't been able to win games by himself although he's still by far the team's best goaltender. People are saying that were it not for him Detroit would have scored 10 goals that night. One bright spot has been Drouin's play. More involved, more intense. Coach Julien looks like he's holding in a shit during every postgame press conference. People are already wondering if the habs won't finish last. Unreal!!! The season is barely 5 games old!!!

If he drinks some prune juice or snacks on plums, he will not be able to hold it in as well, so the Habs should be watching his diet carefully!

......or if he eats something from KOJAX during the game.

Perfect game and big win 6-3 against Blues.....nice surprise.....on ne s'y attendait pas....réussissent toujours à nous surprendre.....rapidité, exécution et ténacité....leur formule gagnante.....et quelle belle ovation pour DROUIN en fin de match....il était ému....beau moment....et bien mérité avec 5 pts en 5 games consécutives..

Belle soirée les boys.......lâchez pas.....

 

[gaby]

SUSUKI....laissé de côté ce soir .......se rapproche t-il de Laval ?...d'autant plus que Bergevin accomgagne actuellement le ROCKET sur la route .....sûrement pas juste pour le plaisir....lol.

 

[gaby]

..Oups..changement..Suzuki sur le 4ème trio ce soir....Bergevin a sans doute envoyé un texto à Julien...lol.

Montreal-TB is the national TV game of the night on NBCSN. First time this year MTL is on NBCSN

 

[gaby]

Les habs ont incroyablement manqué d'opportunisme en PPLAY....peut-être temps de remplacer WEBER par PETRY qui s'impose de plus en plus.

 

[nicknickolas]

I was there,you can switch weber with god himself,nothing will help this powerplay. No presence in front of the net and they kept shooting from outside,not gonna score like that

 

[gaby]

WOW....interrogé hier par un journaliste sur l'utilisation de METE Julien a répondu.....je suis obligé d'y aller avec ce que j'ai.....tout un message à son DG....évidemment par la suite il a défendu son défenseur qui tourne en rond depuis 2 ans et crée des maux de tête à Weber.....et aux fans....

 

[gaby]

Soirée magique.....METE son 1er but :fat::clap2::rockon::yo:......et 1er but aussi pour SUZUKI :whoo::cheer2:.......match parfait 4-0....et tout le monde est heureux :thumb: .....METE est assuré de son poste pour au moins les 2 prochaines années....lol.

Minnesota may actually be the worse team in hockey right now. They're old!!! Way too many players in their mid-30's for one. That's what happens when you hand out too many expensive longterm contracts to players in their mid-to-late 20's. Sure the first couple of years look good....but when those players are about to enter their mid-30's and the team is stuck with unmovable contracts then the franchise suffers.

Take Shea Weber. He looked good when he first arrived with the habs since he was still in his prime at the time. But now he looks very slow and the only thing left is the big slap shot on the powerplay. But teams know this and have learned how to defend it. And the worse part: Weber is signed until 2026!!!!! There's no way you can trade such a big contract especially for a player his age on the downslide of his career!

On the other hand PK Subban is a shadow of his old self and injuries have also taken their toll on him. Two bad, expensive contracts. But Subban is younger than Weber so maybe he's still tradable if the Devils find the right partner.

WOW....autre match parfait 5-2....gros 2 points.....m'ont vraiment surpris today.....domination totale face à une puissante et imposante équipe..... de superbes buts de DROUIN et SUZUKI....et que dire du jeu de KK...et le but de GALLAGHER ...wow.....PRICE égal à lui-même.....life is beautiful....lol

Et demain le WILD avec le sympathique gros bouffon de BOUDREAU..... complètement dépassé....et qui vit sur du temps......plz clean the air.....go HABS go....

I think that it will be another up and down year, they will win games that they are not supposed to win and will lose games that they are not supposed to lose, it could be a make or break year for Bergevin as he has 2 more years left on his contract, and yes I can't wait for Poehling to join, he was absolutely electric in the season finale last year.:thumb:

Another loss last night....this time against San Jose.

At their current rate the habs would finish the season with 82 points and miss the playoffs again.

They're at best a .500 team.

Carey Price is still your best player although he's aging and a shadow is his once-great self. He's the highest paid player on the team and the league's top-paid goaltender. Rarely do Stanley Cup-winning teams have the goaltender as your best player. I don't remember the last time it happened.

This team can't make it into the playoffs with this defence. Surprisingly they miss Jordie Benn. But it's more than that. You still have no #1 centre. Max Domi isn't a #1 centre. On most of the good teams in the league he's a good #3 centre.

Time to try to unload some salary starting with Weber and Price. Trade them for high picks and top prospects and this team could turn the corner a couple of years from now.

Also get rid of the general manager. He's part of the problem.
