Yeah, this four game road stretch after Christmas always previewed to be brutal. 0-4 would not surprise me because a slow starting team with leaky team defense is going to be in tough against good clubs in their barns.

Anderson fans on a good set up: Armia lets a backchecker knock the puck off his stick from behind on a clear breakaway: Barron takes a good turn behind his net to avoid a forecheck and later takes too long to move the pick resulting in a turnover and Florida chance: armia gets the puck in the left corner in his end and gives it right to a Panther. It’s amazing how we stay in some games when we give the other team do many chances.
Armia should not be on the left wing. He can’t handle the puck on his backhand.

Marheson tries to deke Cousins st the blue line while he’s the last guy back. Over and over. How many holes can our feet stand?

10 shots total for both teams. Compelling hockey.🙁

Bit of a snoozer of a period. Most of Habs shot attempts coming from the perimeter with many sailing over the net or wide.

Tie the game & follow it up with a too many men on the ice penalty.🙁
Florida scores as thd PP ends. Called back for offside. They have to wind the clock back 39 seconds to the time of the offside entry.

The most exciting play in hockey: the post-goal offside review. I hate it just as much when benefits the Habs as the other team. If it’s so close that 2 linesmen don’t catch it in real-time it shouldn’t be reviewable IMO.

I think Caufield's goal was their only shot of the period.

And there is no doubt, refs are biased

Unbelievable how much trouble they have clearing the zone.

The boys look terrible tonight, considering the Panthers played the Rangers last night and Montreal dodged Bobrovsky.

They are either extremely efficient or extremely lucky. Maybe both. Part of the problem is that guys like Armia and Anderson, turnover specialists, are in the lineup. Transition would be better without those guys. We still need to play at a faster pace to improve the space and time we need to make plays. Are players where they should be? Is Burrows in charge of exits and entries?
One thing Im pleased to see is that Skafkovsky isn’t shying away from contact. That was a hell of a move (but very risky) cutting through the slot through 2 Panthers with seconds to go in the second. (In his own end).

Rather enjoyed seeing Michael Pezzetta getting involved early in the game ... he won his fight, convincingly, IMHO ... nice goal by Cole Caufield ... more, please ... wonder what Martin St. Louis has to say to the troops after that lacklustre 2nd period ... Cheers.

Watching the Dvorak-Gallagher-Armia line makes me sleepy and irritated at the same time. Gross, just gross.

Armia should spend the rest of the game on the bench.

That's a pretty goal, but Allen HAS to stop that
