Suzuki with at least 3 bonehead turnovers, and of course Matheson with one on the goal. These are the guys supposed to be leading by example.

The Evans line has played relatively well this season, so St. Louis brings in the 'cooler' Armia.
Slafkovsky has good chemistry with Suzuki and Caufield, so St. Louis figures hey who needs it, we have sweet options like Heineman, Kapanen and Anderson.
Look, Dach and Newhook have not been good this season, but tinkering with the entire forward group to get them going is a losing proposition. If those two cannot play decent two-way hockey with Heineman or Armia, then just reduce their minutes down to third line status until they wake up.
And for the love of God, can these sleepy Habs with no intensity and no forecheck simply put together a fourth line with guys willing to play direct, heavy hockey?

I'm sick of watching them & I only get one game a week because of my cable package
Armia needs to visit Laval again and bring Dvorak with him. They had one good line. Now with the tinkering they have none.
I'd keep Anderson around because if he has the guts to take on Tom Wilson he deserves to stick for a bit.

I agree. Anderson's contract is ridiculous (ditto for Gallagher's) but he is playing decent hockey and this scared, sleepy group needs a guy Anderson in the lineup. Actually they need two or three guys who play angrier hockey than Anderson.

They are playing like a team that was bag skated this week. Tired, lazy, no effort to lose pucks.
This team might not get 70 points this year

I dont get the bag skate idea. Punishment likec that is an old tired idea. My feeling is that the players just resent it.

The poor passing of this team looks worse on the PP. they cannot get a pass to the middle , it's really pathetic for supposed professional athletes

Xhekaj gets away with a spear, so they let Crosby away with a slash on that goal

I may have to watch a couple of Sharks games in the next week or two because, honestly, I am not so sure that Montreal is not the worst team in the NHL.

You hear me say often that production and development is not linear. This is a regression year for most of the team.
The good news is Laine isn't a part of it. Cause he'd be getting roasted if he was
