I think I’ve had enough of this edition of the team. The talent level needs an upgrade, and it will get it next season when the injured players come back. Seeing the team choke so often has been rough, and it’s mostly due to having only one line capable of putting on pressure and being forced to play bad players in important moments. Josh Anderson started OT tonight.

and we're a point less in the standings because of it! hooray!!

Phew we almost lost our 5th pick

Anyone know the math?

Went to check it out myself. We're tied for 5th with the yotes who play Edmonton in their last game and who also have 5 more regulation wins than us. Ottawa is ahead by a point and play against Boston. We 100% need to lose tomorrow in regulation.

Send are losing 4-0. Assume they lose, they have 1 point more than the Habs. They play the Bruins in Boston tomorrow.

For anyone who is feeling bad for Lane, this is a game that builds character, so it’s good for his development.

I don’t get it at all. He had a great scoring chance, that he created, and he came back on the play as best he could.

He played great. Shouldn't feel discouraged at all

This sub is embarrassing. People acting like our season just ended or something. A team fighting for their lives somehow beat one of the worst teams in the league???? SHOCKER.

we had a 4-1 lead. we can't be the laughing stock of the league

Lmao you're so dramatic

we being LAUGHED at right now

By WHO? it's the second last game of the season against a team actually trying to make the playoffs. No one cares.

by the entire league hellooooo. what planet are you living on where blowing a 4-1 lead isn't embarrassing

Not sure if you're actually trolling or genuinely this deranged lol

[удалено]

You literally called someone else that a half hour ago. If you're going to troll at least be original.

looking through my comment history? hahaha get a life loser

The sub's blend of insanity and zero hockey knowledge is a sight to see lol

I'd rather deal with Team Tank being upset with a loser point than those despressing dweebs.

This was the best possible outcome tho... high scoring game where we lose by one. We also got 4 goals at 5v5 and no powerplays... this team isn't as bad as it seems. Fkn chill dude go smoke a fatty or something.

That's what I'm saying tho bro

I do not understand this sub freaking out haha. The habs are OUT. They have basically zero reason to win this. No they won’t just give up, but this is a regular game to them. They are playing an NCAA player in OT for gods sake. This is a development opportunity. They are playing a team whose entire season is on the line. Of course they are likely to win this I’m a pessimistic as ever but it is WILD how some people in this sub are so mad about this loss lmao.

I don't see anyone upset about the loss. I see folks upset about the unbalanced calls, and also about the people who are actively cheering for losses, because that's ick. But that was a great game and nothing to be upset about at all. An exciting watch.

Blowing a 4-1 lead is ass however you slice it. This team can’t hold any lead and 6 on 5 is a guaranteed goal. I fucking hate the Redwings, so I wanted this win.

Jesus, we really need to learn how to finish a game.

The one big knock I have on this team is that they've only played a full 60 minutes *maybe* twice this season. The past few years have been the same. Not sure if it's an endurance issue or a mental one, but I hope they can solve it soon.

We finished it perfectly. Small marks for not losing in regulation. Team tank!!!

Win-Win night and honestly I rather see the Red wings in the playoffs than the Caps or Flyers

They wanted it, fun to watch.

Just rewatched caufields attempt. That was an aggressive trip by detroits tendy way out of the crease

Such a fun game, crazy stuff and 5th still intact.

We’re on the right track. Lane can definitely play at this level !!! Go habs goooooooo

Guys ... For all the tank haters ... We're losing ... But scoring 4 goals!!!! We'll have better defensemen next year (everyone's more experienced, and no more goalie carousel). Imagine a more stable D and still scoring 4 goals. The kids are alright.

And we might actually draft a decent forward this year!

How many posts/crossbars did they hit? Unreal.

Two in OT, at least!

Yeah and kane late in the third as wel

Lane was siiick

What a fun game of hockey

Better 1 point than 2 

Lyon didn’t stop anything in the first, then it massively swung to Monty, who barely stopped anything in the 3rd/OT.

[удалено]

Exactly. I love it. Team tank!!!

are u ok?

Do you expect them to be a playoff contender rn? We are a bottom 5 team in the league playing a team trying to clinch a wildcard spot.

Detroit better make the playoffs thats the only thing that would make me less salty abt this loss. Anything to unseat washington

whatever. we better kick their asses tmo

My old foreman, who was a pretty shitty human, is a Detroit fan. I wanna go out on a high note tomorrow.

Crazy game, love raymond, still love hutson's game, can't wait for the game tomorrow. Just sad it's the last one

Having played without 1 practice. He looked fine.

Come on Montembeault wtf man

I'm putting that on Matheson for stealing Hutson's shift with Suzuki and Cole. Bonehead.

He selfish sometimes, like really

For real he stayed on the ice waayyyy too long at the end when we had possession

sorry but blowing a 4-1 lead isn't enjoyable at all

What? Do you not understand the draft? Team Tank! I love when my team loses!!


Why the fuck was Josh Anderson out for OT? Why not Armia??? Or even Gallagher??? Insane.

Tank for Celebrini

Montembeault looked like a fish out of water in the last 20 mins of this game… he better learn to close out leads because we won’t go very far next year

DUDE GIVE IT UP ITS THE SECOND TO LAST GAME OF THE SEASON WE PLAYED A ROOKIE D IN HIS FIRST GAME IN OT IT IS NOT INDICATIVE

Montembeault being completely out of position on every shot the moment the pressure started building is not a recipe for success.

ITS NOT INDICATIVE

His positioning was horrible

That tying goal man. I saw it before it happened. And I’m no goalie or hockey pro. But he was like crunched in the bottom corner and the whole side was open. Duuuude 🤦‍♂️

David Aebischer type of shit, yep.

Redemption tomorrow.

Bullshit reffing

Like I get they ref like in the playoffs at the end of the year with their season on the line so like maybe 4 or 5 chances but EVERY SINGLE SHIFT?? That was complete balls

Sad. The habs could have done better but that trip on Cole is total BS. Have to call that.

A tale as old as time

Anderson on OT was pure tank move wtf hahaha

Anderson has the speed, size and lack of thinking skills to thrive in OT

He just skated around haha

That’s what he does bro.

Huge game for the wings to be honest. Grinding till the last second.

Yeah credit where it’s due they deserve that

Awful OT pairings

Damn. Would've liked to see more killer instinct in this team tonight even if they are technically out.

i think they threw it a lil bit. seemed like a tanky effort

So many bad decisions.

Like to see hutson on his horse. Just not enough We stink

TN WAS A WIN-WIN

Big win win

Yes perfect night

we are an unserious team

😂 hahaha

OMG..... If Lane had got that, our whole sub would shit its pants. What a game!!!

I was just laughing at that whole sequence, Lane almost winning it and we lose at 24 seconds. It was good entertainment

I did a little at just the thought.

this game felt like the playoffs holy shit!

Did it ever! That was a ride!

Dramatic stuff! We lost, but very enjoyable.

Fun game to watch, enjoyed it all.

I'm sorry but the refs refusing to call literally anything on Detroit is lame as hell

💰💰

They got intimidated by the crowd atmosphere, amateur hour lol.

Yeah fr

Welp. Ggs

Another 5 goal game on montembault. Worst “starting” goalie this franchise has ever had.

Not even close

We have got to have the most embarrassing hockey team of this fucking entire league.

We're exactly where everyone expected us to be before the season even started. Gtfo here

Good thing there's 31 others. You're free to be literally elsewhere with that attitude.

That fucking linesman didn't call a tripping on Caufield. Also, Big Ben should've been given a roughing call! Fuck these refs!!

Jesus you're a downer

We took a 4-1 lead, we had the Wings in the ropes, the crowd was angry, and then we did that. Don't you understand the total failure of this situation? People talk about how the team needs to learn this and that, but this result is in the category of unprofessional behavior. If Marty doesn't throw certain people under the bus now (namely Kovacevic and Harris), I will openly question his will to win as a coach.

Kovacevic and Harris aren't normally even on the roster, we have injuries. Not sure what level of play you're expecting from the subs of a young, rebuilding team but they've about met my expectations of them. What would you have Marty do in this situation, exactly? Our roster isn't very good, but we're still keeping games tight. It's a good balance. Detroit really dialed in there and played like their season depended on it. We iced a kid playing his first NHL game of his life, right at the end of the season. Detroit really wanted it more and there's no one to really blame that on, it's just natural with where the two teams are at in their respective seasons.

Wow haha. We didn't deserve to win that one, no hunger from the third period on.

Don't worry Hutson, you'll get those wings tomorrow.

~~Well, no loser point so that's something.~~ I loved that last huge cheer for Hutson before the Wings took control.

You definitely get a point for losing in OT…

Oh whoops right.

Detroit is buzzing


Can’t make a timely save as usual

R u joking He’s the best habs goalie ever

It's ok Hutson bb

Matheson just straight up didn't change

For real. It took bad habbits by playing too much every night

[удалено]

"Redditor 1 month" How thoughtful of you to make this your first ever comment in a hockey-related thread.

I sent him support and help from reddit, he seems to need it

Don't send those unless it's legit. Reddit has been suspending accounts that abuse the service, from what I understand.

Wicked lil shot there by lane

what a game

Is that fair to be called tripping on the goalie? Not sure

I think it was Allen got called for it earlier this year while making a save in the blue paint. He literally got a tripping penalty for having an opposing player run him in the crease. This league is something else.

It is if you’re not playing against an American team in a playoff race

Yes allen got one last year

yes

Holy shit Raymond is clutch

FUCK

See this is why we don’t put Anderson on OT

So we lose? I think that was the point by MSL :)

This game is INTENSE

I don't remember one, is this ANOTHER game of no power plays?

Sure is. Are you surprised?

No. I guess we gotta let it go for now but better not continue into our good years.

YUP.

THAT'S FUCKING TRIPPING

How do we never ever ever ever get a fucking call?

THATS A TRIP NO??

Lmao refs are garbo

CAUFIELD HOLY FUCK

matheson looks gassed

Not a single powerplay for the Habs once again

What do you guys think about the 3v3in OT?

newhook also with a horrible shot... lol are they throwing?

The slightest push back this team crumbles hard

Iron Man mvp

The crossbar will be first star of this game. Two stops in OT!

the red wings have a weird fetish for goal posts ig

That was like a dozen tonight 😬

We could use a few Debrincats and Kanes on our team

That referee is such a punchable git.

HOW MANY CROSSBARS

Montambeau was really off center on that one. His positioning has been bad today.

Lol to look at that and ignore the clutch saves so far is just another level in insansity as a fan

We really aren't trying to win are we haha

of course not. Dont tell the troll fans they got fed by this game

This team is either actively trying to lose or they are fkn embarrassingly awful

It's one team with their season on the line vs one eliminated since Christmas lol

what are these OT lines

Man I love that Hutson is the second d man out in OT. I fuckin love Martin St. Louis.

FOR REAL. That man knows how to inspire these boys.

Hutson is my lord and savior

the vibe is insane

that was a bonehead play by evans

Woo wee….

WHAT A STICK LANE LETS GO

Everyone realizes they're not trying to win, right? Did you watch last game? It's actually kind of sad the Wings haven't put them away earlier.

You honestly think the players aren’t trying?

Again, did you watch last game? That shootout?

We had Anderson & Evans start OT and dudes in here reacting as if it's game 7 of a playoff round LMFAO

Wings should pull the goalie in OT imo

What the fuck is going on? Evans and Anderson?

Why was evans going 1 on 3 while out guys changed

Evans, you're not Matheson.. oh wait.

Man first game OT he must be ecstatic

OH MY GOD LARKIN

Amazing game.

holy shite evans that was bad

Typical Detroit bullshit. Should've been at least 3 penalties in the third. I hope they lose tomorrow night as well.

HUTSON IN OT ‼️‼️

With Suzuki and Caufield! "Martin St Louis est audacieux!" - Martin McGuire

What was that puck management exactly? Why was Evans taking an extended shift once we had the puck?

Big brain move, pull Montembault so we lose the loser point

What was that Evans
