Habs in big trouble, but people seem to focus on the mirage
Last night was a pure example. The habs were outshot by the LA Kings 46-20. The Kings had their backup goalie (Jones) between the pipes and he wasn't very good. Carey Price, on the other hand, was fantastic and stole that win all by himself.
Yet on the various tv shows after the game, i'll bet that the panels raved about the habs' win.
The way i see it, a marginal team with a great goalie can only go so far. You can't play him every night or else he'll either burn out or injure himself.
Last night's game proved to me once again that the HABS WILL NOT MAKE THE PLAYOFFS.
