  1. And of course it was a late game that I couldn’t watch, still happy to see that and against the best current team in the league. We might be a playoffs team but I am all in if we can get good effort and energy most games.

    It was a total effort game and took just pure guts, no flashy skills. Imagine this same effort once all the kids grow up some more and mature. Really exciting future so let the boys cook some more

  3. The way they played last night, particularly the third period. gives me so much hope. Shows they can play with anybody.

    Go toe to toe with the champs and this team is still going to get much better.

    #Yes.

    I actually went to bed (long day) at the end of the second and completely regretted it. I did notice Caufield was getting pushed around a lot. I think they tried to physically body/push him at all opportunities.

  6. I watch end of 2nd and finished the game. Wow they played like champs. Ghule was extraordinary, Suzy has found his baring and no one in the team looked out of place.

    Keep it up Habs, you might surprise a few Analysts

  7. I said before the season started that we probably wouldn’t be a playoff team, but we’d be vastly improved from the tank years. Maybe now, people believe me…

  8. Guhle – Barron is cooking. Barron HATES the preseason confirmed

    Man, our defense core will be dominant for years!

    Guhle is a stud
    Barron will have a breakout year
    Xhekaj is Xhekaj! (Notice no one dares to play dirty when he is on the ice!)
    Matheson : thank you Jeff Petry!

    Hutson, Reinbacher and Mailloux are coming up!

    Man I can’t wait for Hutson to show up!

  10. Boys wanted to party in Vegas with the 2 day break ahead

    I agree but I need someone new with suzi and cole im thinking we try Slaf up there but otherwise idk we really need a top tier RW to help our boys on that line..

    I watched 95% of the game, and didn’t feel like we were dominant, played well though. Lots of shots from the outside. Our first goal was a fluke, and second goal was great zone time.

    Our power play though, it’s telegraphed from here to tomorrow. Take away the seam pass and we have nothing to offer. Kind of frustrating to watch sometimes.

  13. Relax guys Vegas lost on OT to the Hawks you don’t see them planning the parade

    I feel like Coach Marty reacts to the season and adapts his coaching to fit the moment. He is definitely different from some other coaches, who repeat the same message over and over again, just at different volumes.

    Give me the current core with 2-3 years more experience with Marty’s concepts, but with a fully developed Slaf, and then David, WaWa, and Bones in their sophomore NHL seasons. Subtract Armia, Savard, Wideman, Dvo, and Andy if there are any takers. That’s the recipe for a long contending window.

    I can’t see our current goalies sustaining this pace, so to me that’s still the biggest long term question mark. Hopefully Fowler pans out, but I suspect we’ll need to sign/trade for someone a little further along in their development.
