At least Canfield remembers how to score. Nice set up from Suzie and Dach.

Maybe we should have kept Lindgren... After the Binnington trials this season, the Blues probably think the same way, especially after Husso left.

Congrats to CC for hitting the 20 mark again. I believe he is the third Hab to do it in his first two seasons. (Lafleur, Richer) ** Actually scratch that ... Ryder scored 20 in his first two seasons too. Must be the third to do it before age 23.

Hoffman is good at absolutely nothing... Drouin is good at absolutely nothing 2 negatives do not make a positive That 3rd goal started with Hoffman panicking and just giving the puck away on a freebie. No effort required on Washington’s part. Then the worst is letting that a$$ Ovechkin score.

And on the Ovi goal, Harris leaving Ovi alone in his wheelhouse was a bad move. No excuse, you don’t leave that guy open.

Evans' contract is not problematic or anything like that, but yeah he has basically proved he cannot play in the middle six.
With all the injuries, Harris will not be getting any respite. However, he really looks like the season is wearing him down. If and when enough guys get healthy, a stint in the AHL to decompress and hone his craft would not be a bad thing.

On a late shift, Drouin had a chance to go wide and drive the net from the face off circle and instead chose to pass back to a trailer, but right onto the stick of a Cap for a delicious transition counter. Frankly I think he’s lost any bit of desire (courage?) to go to a dirty area. No one wants him. Waive him and gain the $1MM in CAP space.

Touchdown. At least the boys won’t lose again in 2022.

At first I was PO'd that I wasn't getting my Saturday Habs fix on City TV, probably because of the 4PM start.
Now it looks like they were doing me favor.

Down 5-2 after 2, Monty should've started the 3rd...just to spread out the pain.
Allen wasn't good...but we're not winning this with vintage Sawchuk, either.

I recorded it and unless someone can tell me some redeeming value, I'm sending it to DELETE hell....
Anybody still think we don't need a great young goalie? Because wild guess here, Montehole is...full of holes.

What really ticks me off is us letting Putin Jr. score 3 goals. I do not want him to catch Gretzky. He's the worst example to have an NHL record. If Gretzky was playing the Habs today, at 61, he'd probably get 4 goals.

The whole team wasn't good tonight ... they dressed four rookie blue liners, I got that ... the team is young and are going to have bad games, I got that too ... Washington is a far better team, this is true, but please, don't give up ... the Caps took advantage of just about every turnover the Habs gave them, and there were plenty of them ... IMHO, at one point, it looked as if the team became resigned to their fate, and went into coast mode ... it's not going to be easy with so many young players on the team, but Martin St. Louis has to get a grip on that right away ... as an aside, major respect points for Alex Ovechkin ... great game by a class act ... Cheers.

I can't tell you what motivates Alex Ovechkin politically, but he has to know what happens to high-profile Russians if they choose not to endorse Putin ... how many oligarchs have been assassinated ... and counting ... it certainly wouldn't surprise me if he's leery about his own safety, should he go public with any criticism of Putin or the war ... if he does support Putin, then I share your disdain ... all that aside, I called him a "class act" on the ice tonight, and he was ... Cheers.

What an embarrassment. Onward and downward we go We are once again the laughing stock of the league. But that’s what the tankers want, right? To be ‘embarrassed night after night so the guys just give up. Cause that’s what is going to happen. And that means no FAs will come here, and anyone good will want out. And all this and we don’t get Bedard? Then what? Cause looking at the WJC, there isn’t another player there that will help and make this worthwhile.

No one knows what we will get in this draft but I've had enough middling habs teams since 1993 to last a lifetime... no pain, no gain... if your happy with a middling team barely making the playoffs fine.. I've had enough... I want a cup contender for a decade and if it means sucking and being a laughing stock so be it...
