Taro T Posted June 19, 2021 Report Posted June 19, 2021 Pierre & Micheletti had LITERALLY gotten done saying SEVEN SECONDS before the goal how Fleury's puckhandling had been a difference in the game. Well, yeah! 2 Quote

Interesting I said watch the Habs from the start. The mystique is real. It starts with a hot goalie, then add a few old vets playing great, then add a few young guys writing their story … and you never know. Edited June 19, 2021 by Pimlach Quote

Billznut Posted June 19, 2021 Report Posted June 19, 2021 It’s awesome watching Montreal prove so many wrong. Just shows hockey is the ultimate team game. Can’t judge based on talent alone. 1 Quote
thewookie1 Posted June 19, 2021 Report Posted June 19, 2021 I can honestly say I've enjoyed watching Montreal this year in the playoffs. I'm a sucker for underdog stories and they just refuse to lose. God I wish our team had that sheer doggedness 3 Quote

They still had a chance to win in OT and didn’t. Refusing to lose just means not ever giving up,... something we saw our fragile team do many times this year. Quote

Kristian Posted June 19, 2021 Report Posted June 19, 2021 Anyone who keeps claiming the Habs get all the calls on home ice needs to watch that high sticking on Corey Perry in OT. Quote

That did change after RK was given the boot. They still had some bad games, but in most games, they played until the end, and they even had multiple late comebacks. A glimmer of hope, anyway.

sabrefanday1 Posted June 19, 2021 Report Posted June 19, 2021 crazy to hear the Habs coach has COVID 19! Have to wonder if the team will have it next? I too root for underdogs and Montreal is for sure the underdog and Vegas had everything handed to them (which Seattle will not get this time around) but have to wonder how the coach contacting COVID 19 will affect the team moving forward? The coach is fully vaccinated apparently. And yes it is clear NHL want Vegas through to finals when that terrible high stick leaving Perry bleeding pretty bad was not called. Montreal in the final would not help the ratings. Vegas/Tampa is no doubt their preference and I hope for Isles/Habs Quote

Vegas/Tampa is no doubt their preference and I hope for Isles/Habs The narrative that Vegas had everything handed to them is letting the league off the hook when we should not. They worked over teams and made great deals. Then they made continuous moves to build what is now not just a ragtag group of players but a very talented group. Nobody handed them Mark Stone. Seattle gets the same expansion rules. We’ll see if anyone learned their lesson. Edited June 19, 2021 by Hoss 1 Quote
bob_sauve28 Posted June 19, 2021 Report Posted June 19, 2021 So Montreal’s strategy of paying big money to have a solid long term goaltender has paid off in spades. 2 Quote

I wouldn't say that. It seems to be working for them this year (though, they haven't actually won the cup yet and really should be down a game - can't credit them for Fleury's bad play with a late lead), but hadn't really done much for them through most his tenure (assuming we're using a bar higher than just "better than the Sabres have done.") They technically hadn't won a playoff round since he signed the big contract extension until this year (last year's win was in the "qualifying round" not the playoffs) and had missed the playoffs more years than not. 1 Quote
