Dnjscott Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 This is horrible. We look like we don't know what to do. But the New Jersey players always look dangerous advancing the puck. This is an omen....I'll bet this game ends 3-0 or 4-1 with the Habs hardly generating any offense. Hockey isn't very much fun to watch when it's played this poorly....

thefooligan5 Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 Can't decide what was worse on that one, goaltending or defense. Put your money on defense. I'm never particularly upset by goals scored on a breakaway and Price nearly had it but it just squeezed through him. The D definitely should have been back waiting for the man to come out of the penalty box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twillightzone Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 I dont agree with some people that say Habs are as "lazy" and "passionless" like last night. This is NJ that is the very definition of discipline in the league, a much better start by the Canadiens then last night. Not good enough but I can see this game be much better then the one against Atlanta. Yes the habs looks out of place sometimes but again this isnt a "pushover team" they play tonight by a long way.

I don't think the habs are playing incredibly but they have had some very good scoring chances so far. They really should have scored on at least one of them but none the less I think they are playing pretty well against the Devils who are notorious for owning the habs.

Flying_Lion Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 we need a goal. I say this not to state the obvious, that we're down a goal. I say it because we're down a goal to New Jersey. Nothing is more boring than watching the Devils play their defensive game. GO HABS GO! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thefooligan5 Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 Even the NJ commentators have mentioned that this is the best game the Devils have played at home so far. So I'm not too upset that we are only down by one and yet we still had some good opportunties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the exception of that Pleks-to-Kovy rush, we have not threatened at all....yet the Devils are inches away from being up three or more. And I don't see anything that tells me it will be any different as the game goes on. We're constantly giving up the puck and the zone way too easily. As long as we do that, any team can "own" us.

SteenIsThaFuture Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 The Devils announcer called this one of the best games of the year so far, I guess when you watch the Devils all the time, 1 goal is considered an explosion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
habtalk Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 We are unlucky not to be up by 3 or 4 goals. Brodeur is going to have a tough time getting his starting job back with this Clemenson guy playing like this ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

some-guy-pp1 Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 WHY THE HELL IS KOVALEV NOT ON ANY OF THE POWERPLAY WAVES??? Everyone knows the plays well when he feels loved, and that our powerplay is not what it is without him. So why not put him in there?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJG93 Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 I am sure if it wasn't for Price, this would easily be 2 or 3 to nothing. Yah and i'm sure if we finish half the chances we had we'd be heading to the cage for chicken wings already.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you need to take off those bleak and bleary glasses you have on. "Inches away from being up three or more"? What? The breakway goal was the only genuine scoring opportunity the devils had that period. Meanwhile the habs had at least 3 good chances on their PP combined with the Sergei getting stoned by Clemmensen while he was splayed out on the ice and Kostopolous fanning on a perfect set up in front of the net among others. We're being outshot but we definitely out-chanced the devils that period. Don't get me wrong, I expect a loss because we are playing the devils but by no means are the habs playing as poorly as a number of you think.
