If they call that on Ghost, that should have been called for Sanheim.

After a 4 minute power play and then being on another one. I knew that wasn’t happening.

Therien needs to get fired in the 1st intermission...
Giroux needs to get his head out of ass. He is killing the PP.

Much better first. Now they need to follow up with a strong second.

They really need to switch up the power play. Puck movement isn’t an issue but I’m sorry, Price can see everything. It’s just too easy for him.

The thing that amazes me, is how well the Habs are playing defense. I watched a bunch of Habs games this year, and I don't remember this at all.

As for Danault, by my rough count this is the 7th pass on the pp he has intercepted this series.

Pissing away all these pp is going to cost us.

Montreal speed and tenacity really apparent. Not a great first even if they’re up

Montreal is one of the league leaders in both possession and high danger chances.

Yes. This is why the call on sanheim wasn’t made.

Those “chances” haven’t turned into goals OR EVEN SHOTS ON NET!!!

It doesn’t matter whose in net...they could have yhe ghost of bunny laroque...if you don’t shoot on net...you will NEVER score.

He's being fawned on because he actually did was his coaching staff wanted him to. He took advantage of the pandemic and put on 10-15 lbs of muscle. Get used to hearing his name because he's going to be their #1 center for a while.

Big fuking deal...don’t give a sht about him

Can we turn JVR and Ghost’s cap hits into Hall this offseason? Good lord, no one on our PP can finish.

Coming into this game, the Habs rank 9th in HDCF%. Although they do have a high total in HDCF. In Corsi, they rank 14th.

Let's compare it to the first period of the previous game. Unfortunately, the PP is struggling.

I've kind of mentally "moved on" from NP. I just hope if we ever get a #2 overall pick ever again, we trade down.
