[Priyanta Emrith] Habs Kovacevic: “it would be a lie if I said we’re not looking at the standings- you’re always looking at the standings b/c we have a goal of making the playoffs. That’s our goal & we’re still pushing towards that goal…we just need to get hot here & go on a lil bit of a streak”

    Gonna need a bit more than a Lil bit, but I like the attitude

  2. Honda Civic with the right vibes

    That said, TANK ON BOYS

  3. smolgoalboy

    Sorry Kov but I hope the next 29 games are high scoring losses where our top line and young d men light it up but we still lose, get a top 5 pick, trade Winnipeg’s 1st and ours for a top 4 pick, get Lindstrom, make some trades in the off-season for a top 6 forward, and then be slated for a playoff spot next year

  4. Mtlsandman

    Sorry bud but that’s exactly the opposite of what needs to happen at this point. Maybe don’t suck for half the year next year and you guys can focus on playoffs in February

    This man has a degree in Engineering. He’s well aware that the math isn’t there for us.

    But this is a sports environment, and 50% of sports is the mental aspect of showing up for games and trying to win. If it’s still possible, act like it is until it’s not.

    I mean, we all know it won’t happen, but it’s the mindset they need to have if we don’t want to become the Sabres.

    Some people always say the right thing, but it rarely goes beyond that.

  8. Le8ronJames

    Love the attitude buddy. That being said let’s lose a couple more and get a better draft pick.

  9. whiteslinky

    No we don’t, but I love the wining attitude

  10. slowflo123

    Would be pretty cool if we beat Detroit in the last 2 games of the season to take the 8 seed from them. Even better if it were Toronto, what happened to the annual last game of the season against them?

  11. jhenry137

    fuck the tank 🙂 [and everyone who wants it]

  12. TrentonRommy

    It’s always possible until it isn’t. It’d be a shame if professional athletes phoned it in, so I expect them to fight tooth-and-nail until the last minute. The competitive fire will pay dividends when the roster is actually good enough to make the playoffs.

  13. Frites_Sauce_Fromage

    So are we gonna trade him to a cup contender for a first?

  14. Legitimate-Bass68

    I know we are trying to get the best possible draft pick but I fucking love hearing this. I hope Marty pushes these boys to do their absolute best right to the final game

  15. ACProfessor

    Probably won’t make the plofs but I’ll be damned if we don’t go down fighting for it!

    Tank season is over boys it’s been 2 years. Time to start putting the wins on the board.

    Excited for next season.

  16. JeanJacquesDatsyuk

    Get on the program Kovy

    I love the way Kovacevic has stepped it up. Someone needs to put a voice to the frustration both on and off the ice. I hope that this results in a bit of a heater. I don’t care for tank talk, I want to see some wins and a team that fights hard every shift. Hopefully he’ll lead by example and drag a few on the team with him

  18. JediMasterZao

    It’s the right attitude to have and I hope this is what the team is pushing internally. If we look at the season so far though they’ve just never really been on a hot streak, it’s been hot and cold all season. They’re one of the most .500 teams to have ever .500’ed.

  19. In order to get on a streak, your goalie needs to get hot, a goalie can’t get hot if he plays every 2-3 games. I don’t remember the last time a team had a 3 goalie rotation

  20. okokokoyeahright

    Slaf has had an influence I think.

    Johnny Slafs good.

  21. Sorry Johnny.

    I mean, yeah. *You* as a player should do that and hope for that. Us as fans and management have to look at a bigger picture. I definitely appreciate how they give it their all.

  22. Tanky tank mctankface we should llook like Edmonton soon with all our first round picks

  23. Legitimate-Bass68

    Which is excellent. The team needs to keep competing with their heart and soul and keep losing. I can’t think of a better scenario. The players are encouraged to win and keep a winning mindset and we will hopefully get that 5th pick

  24. logictable

    I think this is a shout out to Allen and Primeau that we are actually trying to win.

  25. Lithium187

    That’s the kind of positive outlook that turns you into an Edmonton Oiler at the deadline.

  26. GeistHunt

    So I take it Kovy is a glass half-full kinda person
