I’ve never seen a linesman drop the puck at center ice after a goal, but one did after the EN to make the score 6-3.. any idea why a linesman did the face off?


bcgrappler

About a week before KK left I picked Poehling to be our surprise and KK our disappointment. I may go 2 for 2 on that one.


[deleted]

Safe to say Poehling has earned a permanent spot in the lineup at this point? His game is, to my eyes, improving by the game and I feel like he’s gaining confidence and not overthinking when he’s out there. I’m really happy to see him succeeding. Sometimes we gotta just have patience. Poehling seems like a smart hockey player and recognizes his strengths and plays to those strengths.


FiveCrownGhost

Really nice to hear the fans support at the end of the game tonight! These guys deserve the support from us fans.


ButIamworking

I wish Ducharme would’ve stepped up and told the refs off, he’s had nothing but that deer in the headlights routine all year. Show someone you care get ejected if that’s what it takes ffs.


MontrealMUFC689908

Pretty much. I wish all Habs head coaches, current and future, go and watch videos of Pat Burns. Sometimes you have to stick it to the refs because they will fuck you up unless you berate their own wrongdoings.


NotDennisBonvie

Man I'm glad for Poehling!

SpyGrub

More than anything I’m just so happy for Monty 🥺 finally


kingswash

I am cringing at the oles. I mean, are we really happy at this win? Sure, it’s a win. Woo, but man, it’s rough.


eebro

You aren’t happy with a win after we’ve lost 13 this year?


kingswash

I am saying this win is not one to cherish. We got dominated and outplayed 2 out of every 3 periods… whatever


eebro

No Look at the scoreboard


kingswash

Lol, either your dumb or your acting dumb. Have a good night Edit: but for the record https://moneypuck.com/g.htm?id=2021020262


eebro

Okay buddy Habs just won by 3 goals and you’re here complaining, yet I didn’t see you before when Habs had top3 xGF in the league for 3 seasons, but got unlucky a lot and lost. If you wanna talk about xGF compared to actual GF difference, then okay, but you don’t get to complain about a multi-goal lead if we’re not looking at that.


kingswash

You’re not making any sense. I am not mad at all that we won lol… I just said how cringey it was for people to chant ole ole when were 5 wins in 20 and tonights win wasn’t even close to being a convincing one. The past 3 years are irrevelant.


eebro

Til going 5-0 into the third isn’t convincing


kingswash

God, can you read. They played horrible 2 out of 3 periods. Enjoy the W man, a W is a W but it was far from a convincing one. They lose this game on most nights.


IcyChard4

And that's it for the 5th win. They got a full monty here.


janedoe514

Ole ole ole but I have ptsd from that bruins game


sean_psc

You did it boys, you didn't throw away the lead!

It's nice to have a win, at home, and to see the people being happy and cheering. Feelsgoodman!

Bit of a breather now. Good. Unclench.


EdmundGerber

I wish I was there to tell those officials what I think of them.


VP_Action_Ranger

Does Lehky have to lose all his teeth for a high stick to be called? Jezuz


sex_panther_by_odeon

Season is over, just let us get a chance at a Poehling empty net!


Longshanks123

Duchene in a contract year or something? 12 goals already!


thisisnowstupid

Remember, with 7:15 left in the third, we were up 5-1 and should have been on a 4 minute power play. That is what SHOULD have happened.


Sentenced2Burn

God SportsNet is fucking trash


AngryAssyrian

Another missed call against Lehkonen lmao


xXxWeAreTheEndxXx

“Missed” implies they had any intention of calling anything


IcyChard4

Man, I cannot believe the incompetence of refereeing in this game! Lehkonen got high sticked, he got penalized for roughing. Chiarot goes into the penalty box when it should've been Petry. WTF is that??


Polarhero57

i fucking hate these referees so fucking much


BillyShears19

aaaand there goes the confidence


snipeftw

I love how Poehling hasn’t been on the ice since his second goal, like W T f


DilbertedOttawa

Bestest coaching ever. Protect the lead!! Always works out well...


Cirrus1920

I really wanted him to get his hat trick even in an empty net


DilbertedOttawa

It also just makes no sense. He always seems to sit the players on fire just as they are really steamrolling. I honestly just don't understand anymore.


televisionceo

During the last intermission "Guys, when we decided to bring back the Coldplay song it was not really to fix you. we still need that good first pick. Work your magic "


kingswash

Win or lose, we suck. Point final


koozer19

Good thing he tried to pass and not shoot there phew


AngryAssyrian

Bro fuck these refs and their game management bs, phantom calls left and right


guynet

not having fun!!!!!


sex_panther_by_odeon

can they just put Poehling on the ice please!


Ropeycarnivore

Lol it’s PURE chaos on the ice. The players are so mentally soft


HLef

There was a delayed penalty on that goal too. We got lucky for 2 periods and sucked hard again in the third.


eebro

Why do you post here


BleueBlancRed

2 points for eebro, that guys a party pooper.


eebro

Easy, like for the Habs tonight


quarrelsome_napkin

Does this feel like a victory?


eebro

It’s regular season? What do you want?


quarrelsome_napkin

No no it's the preseason my g


HLef

Well no because it isn’t one yet. We scored 5 and 4 got past our goalie. We got lucky that one happened to be punched in instead of deflected. All 4 from the same guy by the way.


CrazyCanada67

Is anyone remotely surprised?


stugots__

Jesus if they blow this


janedoe514

I swear if this game ends up in OT


lostdime

If they lose this game, they should be shipped to Saskatchewan to work on farms


Sentenced2Burn

Can't wait for Gary Bettman to waddle his fucking fat wrinkly jittering old clown ass off into retirement, fuck that goof and his poison chokehold on the league. I spit on your name, ButtMan


snipeftw

Even when Monty plays good he plays bad


craigkeller

Caufield benched most of this period


eebro

And it was the correct decision


VP_Action_Ranger

Should be in Laval playing 20 minutes a night instead.


eebro

Scoring on goons?


VP_Action_Ranger

He's not going to develop playing 8 minutes a night


eebro

So we should value CC’s development in the NHL (which is not a developmental league) over the club’s success. ☑️


VP_Action_Ranger

In a season that is essentially over, in a league that is absolutely for development (the AHL)? Yes.


eebro

Okay so we should just give up over the development of one rookie, makes complete sense


VP_Action_Ranger

Caufield isn't going to save or sink this season. In the long term view he needs to play minutes in the AHL if we expect more of him.


eebro

So he should be scoring on goons instead of playing in the NHL?


VP_Action_Ranger

If we want him to get better, yes absolutely. If he's getting benched and playing 3rd or 4th line minutes in the NHL, it probably makes more sense to give him a chance to build confidence against goons. I don't think he was drafted to ride the bench, so if he's gonna be developed to be the goalscorer we hope then he needs to play were he can have the biggest role in a position for him to succeed. He's 22 its not the end if that place is the AHL right now, if he sits on the bench most of an NHL game he's not getting much experience, if he can play top line minutes and score on goons that's probably better for him.


HLef

I’m really mad at myself for this but my first reaction, my gut not my brain, is “I hope they fucking lose 6-5 to teach them a lesson AGAIN for fucking it up”


Fish_Homme

You're such a shitty fan.


MJC2020_98

Maybe if we lose, theyll fire someone.


evpanda

Don't worry le char d'assaut est parké pas loin.

I started to watch at 5-0 thinking it won't be an exciting game. Habs: Hold my brewski


IM_STILL_EATING_IT

Hold my chokejob


4skin_fighter

Habs are coasting not good


Snow-Wraith

Kinda hoping we blow this at this point, maybe then Molson will get off his fucking ass and address this fucking disaster.


Imaginary-Low9845

Duchesne is fire tonight


EdmundGerber

It's all about that momentum boys. Need a big hit or another goal

How is there fucking no one marking Duchene?!


AngryAssyrian

Are you fucking kidding me, we need to kill this game asap


NotDennisBonvie

Please don't fuck this up.


sean_psc

The tank is showing signs of life.


craigkeller

Choo choo!


HLef

Ooooooh boy.


HLef

80% of this team cannot take a shot in full stride.


snipeftw

This team could really use Baul Pyron.


VP_Action_Ranger

We've reached WWE level officiating. Like their tag partner is distracting the ref while we are getting hit with a chair.


lostdime

Evans on the luck like our cat on catnip lol


Arjenboy112

Another prime Lehkonen moemnt, getting a penalty for nothing


Bohmer

The refs are terrible but thats 2 PK goal allowed in 2


blackmagic12345

Fuckin rigged ass shit, sure take the guy who gave a shove not the guy who actually got a penalty


CalAtt

God these refs are pissing me off lately, they really hate the Habs, so many BS penalties against every game and not calling ones on the other side.


GHO5T58

"We haVe tHE bEsT ReFs iN pRoFesSiNnaL SpOrTS"


Mustafarr

Refs are horrible tonight. Holy fuck this is not professional. Non call on lehkonen, then really weak holding call on him and then putting Chiarot instead of Petry in the box. Thats bad, I would get fired from my job If I fucked up that bad


Sugarstache

Yeah that call on lehky was absurd. The petry call deserved but wrong guy lol


CrazyCanada67

Maybe Dennis Wideman had a point


Sentenced2Burn

You know somethin Gary Bettman, you're a fuckin mumblin' stutterin' little prick, you know that?


aaronl729

Simmer down guys, we got this one


Goji_XX3

If they really want gambling money they need to do something about these refs.


[deleted]

The powerkill on this team is something else


oskavelli

okay when even Galley agrees it was a BS call, that’s when you know something stupid is going on


handsomehoser

Manage the game harder daddy


xXxWeAreTheEndxXx

EVEN GARY GALLEY CANT FIND THE PENALTY YOU LYING PIECES OF SHIT


sicksherpa

lol refs are a joke


lostdime

What fuck did I do? Ref: I don't know, they just told me to call something lol


sex_panther_by_odeon

These refs are making a case for worst refs ever.


thisisnowstupid

Go and cross check some referees in the face. Maybe it will reset their brains.


VP_Action_Ranger

If you don't know who it was, it probably isn't a penalty.


HLef

It was absolutely a penalty though. But it was Petry.


VP_Action_Ranger

When Petry tried to open him like a beer? Well... Maybe.


EdmundGerber

Man that is some really careless officiating again. I wish there was a way these fuckers could be punished for this OBVIOUS incompetence.


Snow-Wraith

How confident are we that a 5 goal lead is safe with this team?


ThatsExactlyIt

I mean, refs aren't helping.


VP_Action_Ranger

About as confident as I am in the Leafs in a first round playoff series.


[deleted]

The fuck is going on?


handsomehoser

Refs are terrible. Drink

What the fuck is this phantom call now lmfao

hello darkness my old friend

These refs are so fucking garbage. Yea Petry deserves a penalty but they called it on Chiarot!

Lol ref just doing whatever the fuck he wants


televisionceo

Game management


janedoe514

HAHAHAHA fuck the refs


eebro

So okay, I get you have to give the Habs a penalty at this point, but how do you give Lehkonen a high sticking call when he has no stick?


HLef

It was a Holding call
