Slaf has gone back to passing when he needs to shoot. That empty netter was his fault
Such a piss poor effort.
Cant wait to get wrecked by Roy and the Isles…lol
So sick and tired of this team not showing up against shit teams then turning it on in the last 5 minutes. We were 4 points back of a playoff spot playing our best hockey all season and now that all seems like a distant memory, this team is so wildly inconsistent
Slaf has to learn to shoot
I know Slaf is having a rough night but how comes hes off the line with Zuk & Cole
Imagine losing to the 2023-2024 Ottawa senators TWICE IN A WEEK.
Yikkeesssss. This team deserves to be made fun of.
Anyway, only 8 pts behind us now, we’re coming 
we’re a joke
Great Now we have a reason to loose Thursday . Patrick is back for fucks sakes !!!
I watched that play and in my head it was Ralph Wiggum saying “I’m in danger” but in reality it was Slaf saying “I’m a playmaker”.
such a great game for the tank tho. need that top 5 pick babyyyy
We’re cursed since our 2 wins in a row
Guys. Wake me up at the draft. This season is over.
I mean let this be a lesson that even one PP goal would’ve made a major diff.. extremely big difference
I feel a little bad for Roy, feels like he played well since he got called up and we still got shit on twice by the Sens.
Caufield and Suzuki have points hey
i miss the 2018-19 habs
They didn’t make the playoffs.
But god damn were they ever fun.
Well I’m hopping on the tank bandwagon!
🙏 Maybe the Sens can get out of the Celebrini race
Celebrate for Celebrini
Wish we at least had the expos to look forward to this summer
Crowd should be booing this team off the ice
They gave their all against the oilers, avs and the devils lol
Sens TSN broadcast has shown Habs fans leaving the arena on 4 separate occasions because of what Stutzle said. Fucking cringe lol
When was the last time Habs played a full 60 minutes? Seems to be a long time ago. Tonight, they showed up only in the 3rd. Slaf HAS to shot that, he overpassed and it caused the goal.
Half of you are more embarassing than the team
Hey, all and all, we’re not the team that are underachieving crazy style.
So the fact we lose I can understand but MSL has to at least have some answers as to why this team comes out flat. I dont expect they will be good, but I expect they come out with some sense of desire. Whats happening there?
For those who didn’t believe me earlier, Martin McGuire referring again to the “brasse-camarade” in yesterday’s practice.
It’s a shame we have 7 loser points. We’d be in the race for a top 5 pick if we didn’t have those.
