Carrier was so good last year. This year is very tough. What is Matheson and Ghule?

I broke down and got one a few years ago when we lost power for 9 days. Rushed to Rona who had huge lineup and I got last one

Got my generator ready. I need the generac connection to fuse box to be able to get whole hole home going. Tonight it may be just fish tank and wifi so we can watch on our phones

Monty has played all 3 games against Sens and is 2-1 so far. We shall see but we got Toronto first

Well I respect your perspective even I do not share it. He has played very well most of the season. His glaring mistakes are few and far between and it frustrates me seeing Carrier all year and the blungers made by MM. And do not get me started on Struble. Anyways onto tomorrow.

Well many games you see the whole team running around and chasing people in our zone and its a main reason why goalies stink this year. Can't remove all 23 players.

No Schrodingers cat was put in a box with a vial of poison. You could not tell if the cat was alive or dead so he was considered both until you opened the box. Was a Bing Bang Theory episode on it. lol

Or did he? lol

Wednesday is an absolute must win. After that I just hope and see

Well agree to disagree he has been god-awful. Thats what MSL wants you to think. Have said for past 3-4 years that only 2 players who could be Weber-light is Mailloux and Arber. One has finally started to get 20-25 minutes in St. Louis, the other will be gone this summer. So we will be/play small

Hey I have been saying that for last two years. Coach has to create system for team he has, not wants. Its been 4 years now and we still chase. If you chase and are behind your many then technically its 5-4 as you are out of position. But thats just me.

The issue with all the d will not be fixed by Engstrom and Reinbacher. Its 4 years of the man to man that is not working. If Arber was given a role of clear the crease he would be way more effective. Everyone chasing a man around D zone is just not working. We now see Mailloux doing 20-25 a night

09.03.2026 14:05 πŸ‘ 2 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 2 πŸ“Œ 0

And what do we say about MM, KG, Dobson and Carrier? The mistakes they make each game that cause GA are even more glaring. But that’s OK but Arber are not is fine?

Great a 3 pt game coming up

Nice article. Coach is player first and will not take Gally out unfortunately. Every game this season and next gets him 1000. And I absolutely do not agree with your Xhekaj comment. He has his moments, but the other 5 are worse. And he was 2nd best d last night according to corsi.

09.03.2026 00:35 πŸ‘ 0 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 1 πŸ“Œ 0

Agreed. I notice he always wants to take that 1 extra step either forward or to the side that give the attacker than 1 split second more to block the shot. He needs urgence when its that close.

08.03.2026 22:11 πŸ‘ 1 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 0 πŸ“Œ 0

Respectfully I do not agree. He had one horrible shift but was solid rest of time. And MM, KG and Carrier made 10x more mistakes. Its a personal issue with AX and coach.

First is get rid of system that is not tailored to Habs strengths. It is a pig headed move. Add a seasoned coach as Associate to replace Burrows is a need as well. 4 years in game management is still alluding the coach. And for the love of all things we need 15 minutes of Xhekaj in front of the net

Been saying it for two years now. Also made the comment last night after first period. Marty is a great teacher, but cannot do game management. It has been 4 years now and team is as confused as always. A coach does not implement his system, he should tailor for team he has.

08.03.2026 18:13 πŸ‘ 0 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 0 πŸ“Œ 0

We need the coach to get his head out of butt and play Xhekaj more. Only physical one we have and doesn’t Mae any more mistakes than other 5

Sure am glad Arber got 9 minutes, was a play 2 and tied for lead in hits. Meanwhile MM gets 25 minutes and a -3.

Matheson, Carrier and Evans just out to lunch. No one fort and Dobes. Sheesh

Periods two and three we need Hughes to come down and intervene. We need to simplify system Thai game. Back to zone defence to reset the the Habs IQ. Just for one game. Let’s go

All three forwards were just gliding back when all that happened. Unacceptable

Rick Green suggested Arber with Lane a long time ago. Lets hope it sticks. Good pair

I loved the MSL hire and the story has been about how great a teacher he is. This is 4 years in now and we keep hearing "we shot ourselves in the foot". Every game we see periods of sloppy and unorganized. Is it the 23 players at this point, or a very bad system? Did these goalies and dmen forget?

Lebron said Habs on his no trade list.

One of the panel said Habs are on his no trade list?

06.03.2026 14:33 πŸ‘ 2 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 0 πŸ“Œ 0

He declined the trade

Thomas isn't going anywhere. They do not want to trade him unless a team is stupid for overpayment. Hugo have never indicated that level of IQ. Buffalo talks went a long way but decided Powers+ was an overpayment
