Danault now 1C, Suzuki 2C with D&D and KK gets 3C with Byron/Lehkonen. None of those lines have figured out how to break through the trap yet. Chip and chase more boys. Use speed off the puck. Turn their D around. Get in front of Hart.

I don't like how we can't seem to mount an effective offense. As if that is a surprise. Don't worry, we can claim that we beat the decaying Pigeons.....so it was all worth it.

Another part of a very strong period for the Flyers. The Habs need to wake up.

Beating a trap must be a mystery, BIG mystery.....like the equal mystery of fighting and beating them for the puck INSIDE their zone, making a mess of their net area.

Another good fourth line shift, until Armia’s tip went into the corner instead of on or in the net.

Philly hasn’t even turned it up.
Again, our 4th line gets a solid chance in front. Zippo.

Gotta do better than that Drouin. At least hit the net and maybe get a rebound...or get that nice wrister of yours in the back of the net.

I though we had last change so how in the f do the 4th line get the best chances... Is Muller working the lines like they're a power play?

Don't put the number one unit out. It will hurt Vigneault's feelings.

Next time, start the 4th line on the PP. Ha!

Bad PP again.
If you are going to be on the boards on your PP, you better be willing to win those board battles. We lost them all that PP.

Close to 5 periods without a goal.
Petry off the post

Hart just got a toe on Petry’s shot. It was going in.

First bad goal.
That might be enough, sad to say.

A crap goal. The way things are going that's enough.
They aren't putting Hart under any pressure at all.

And a knuckler beats Price.
Now it really does look like a mid-February game against the Sabres.

Double shift the 4th line in the third. :-)

A crap goal. The way things are going that's enough. It just got a lot tougher, yes ... the Habs have gone just about 5 periods now without scoring a goal ... they just have to get to Michael Leighton Carter Hart ... Cheers.

If that goal took the wind out of me, imagine what it's like for the team ... not the way they wanted to go into the dressing room, but they're going to have to put that behind them and come out hard in the 3rd ... Cheers.

That second Flyers' goal is bad, but Price has been great this post-season so when the boys are back on the golf course the real reason is not going to be hard to figure out.
Muller started the line blender before the opening whistle and he just keeps blending.
Aside from Montreal and Philadelphia fans, I wonder who would bother with this besides just the novelty of having playoff hockey on as background noise in August. Two teams that create almost nothing offensively, not much hitting or animosity, not much of anything.

I'm sure after the series is over, on Thursday, we'll hear this guy was injured and that guy was injured... but they had to stay in the game because their ego wouldn't let them not play... what's best for the player, not what's best for the team... Stupid mentality...

Losing the series 4-1 is as useful a confidence builder as a hemorrhoid.
I'm trying desperately to hold on to any hope.....

What a waste of 5.5 mill a year... burgerbrain is a moron He’s not a moron. Having said that, I’ve never gotten the impression that he’s bright. He’s a 3rd quartile GM who knows how to stroke the owner. In 2 years we’ll probably look back and wish he had taken some of our suggestions. Just watch. The team will score 3 goals and we’ll all sound silly.

Jonathan Drouin worked hard in prepping himself for the 2019-20 season and it paid off ... he bolted out of the blocks at the beginning of the season and that's the Drouin we need right now, methinks ... Cheers.
