Habs / Flyers: Game 1

  • Written by Habs BlogHabs Blog 320 Comments320 Comments Comments
    Last Updated: April 24, 2008

    If we learned anything from round 1 of the Playoffs, it’s that regular season records mean absolutely nothing.

    The Canadiens once again play a team they dominated in the regular season. Undefeated, at home and on the road.

    If we learned anything else, it’s expect the unexpected.

    Who knows what Philly team will show up? Who knows if Montreal will play with the urgency and intensity that they need? Will they underestimate the Flyers the same way they did the Bruins?

    Will the powerplay resume and be the decision maker in this series? Or continue to struggle and be indifferent?

    Can Martin Biron be as good or better than Carey Price?

    All these and many more questions need to be answered starting tonight in Montreal.

    It’s not so much that they can’t find them as it is that they won’t go out and get them. Skilled players seem to dominate the Habs’ personality as a team, and while that worked against Boston, a more physical presence is required as a team proceeds deeper in to the playoffs.

    It’s the Ottawa formula all over again.

    And if they make a liar out of me by winning another Cup this season, then no one will be happier than me. And that’s my challenge to these players (not that they’ll ever know that it is).

    It is harder to find these good players, over the last few years we lacked the skilled players to score goals, so finally we get the skill that we need and now we do not have the power forwards, I would suggest to you the Lats and Chipchura could both become what we are looking for, but so far they have not developed. I think Lats should have played two years in them minors where he would have learned to play more aggressive, now he is going into his third year and he still does not use his dominate size to his advantage. The other thing is that we have tended to draft 10th or higher for the past few years and it is hard to pick up the big centreman or the strong power forward drafting that high, therefore we end up drafting the smaller skilled players that are still available. Montreal has always been known for the speed flying frenchman and all, therefore, they want a player that can skate, it is the reason why we have dominated the Bruins for so many years. They always drafted touchness and speed was secondary. So I guess we have to ask, do we want a good team like Boston or do we want a great team. Now don’t get me wrong I agree we need a couple of big strong power forwards but they have to be able to skate.

    I think they just came out a little cold. I will bet you by the end of the night this games is going to be close. They just have to get the cobwebs out. Its like a boxer who needs that first good shot. After that, he adjusts, and is good to go. This game will be tied by the end of the second period.

    The Flyers are tired. And if it weren’t for a couple of goal posts saving Biron early on, they would have been down not 1-0 but 2-0.

    So they get a lucky break off of Brisebois’s deflection and then they get inspired. Of course. That’s hockey. The sky is far from falling however.

    How soon Brisebois’s first round performance is forgotten. Didn’t he hit the post behind Biron prior to that unfortunate deflection off of his stick? And what was he supposed to do with that exactly? Not try to stop the pass? Tackle Kapanen? It happens.

    The Breese was shaky in the first and the Habs should us his shot more cause thier having a hard time in the Philly end,not clicking and no sign of Kovalev. I do think we need more size against theirs\ guy’s as well.

    So essentially, the Habs were a couple of goal posts and a goal that came one second too late from running away with this one.

    Senet 1, I agree with all of your points. And I’m not suggesting that strong skating power forwards are easy to find (available). I’m just saying that the focus, with regard to free agent signings and trades, seems to have been on smaller skilled players as of late. Briere?

    As everyone here surely agrees, Lecavalier would be such a nice addition to this team. They’d be dominant.

    I watched the Philly Washington series, and if Montreal loses this series, it will be because they beat themselves. Boston is a better team than Philadelphia.

    Even so, one or two bad games in a playoff series and it will be hard to come back against any team.

    Go Habs!

    Breezer looks tired, maybe smarting from some hits. He definitely needs to sit out at least the next one. We need O’Byrne to move the Flyers out of Carey’s face.
    Habs look like they might be starting to thaw out but boy, did they look stiff in the first period, also unwilling to mix it up and fight for the puck.
    What gives???????/
    We’d be up Salmonella Creek if it wasn’t for Price, but the way the Flyers are moving in on him, it’s just a matter of time until they mangle him.
    Let’s hope our boys can find some testosterone in their jocks.

    I was stoked to see the Habs bounce right back in the second, and I think that if they keeop the pedal to the metal in the third, then Philly will be there for the taking in this game. Philly looks like they’re fading.

    Further, I agree with others that the Habs are playing an opponent that they should beat in this series.

    In general, I don’t like or dislike specific players. But I have been watching Habs TWO shaking (nervous) players: Huet and Brisebois.

    1. Huet, farewell.

    2. Brisebois, ???

    This is terrible. Has the team been participating in late night riots? What the hell is going on with the Habs. These brutal, no energy, listless, heartless games are going to end up costing them a series at some point.

    yes, but our defence is horrible. They can’t seem tp make a pass out of their zone. what gives? You know guys, I thought Boston deserved to win the series, and if we play the same way against Philly, we’re most certainly going to lose the series. Philly is much better than Boston, more offence, and better goaltending. Philly has controlled the puck in our zone, and habs D is continually giving up the puck.

    I’m watching the game on CBC because I don’t get RDS in HD. So here, for you Habs fans with RDS HD, are some great CBC quotes from the game:

    1. When Kovalev’s goal is under review and the CBC team is looking at a camera angle that shows it was not a high stick: “I’m going to say something I shouldn’t say here…but I don’t think he hit that with a high stick”.

    2. On the knee on Kovalev at the end of the game: “Richards is getting penalty for a clean hip check.”

    3. “Montreal started the game strong and then Philadelphia took over…”

    4. When Montreal scores to tie the game: “Scores!” [silence]

    A couple of observations:

    - Philly has reaped the rewards of several fortunate bounces in this game, at both ends of the ice.
    - The Habs have looked far too flat for a team supposedly poised to make a legitimate run.
    - The Habs need to skate.
    - The Habs need to shoot more whilst in the slot… rather than look to make that extra move all of the time.
    - The Habs’ only powerplay opportunity of the game came with one minute left, and that was enough to tie it.
    - It’s good to have Kovalev back in regular season form.
    - Biron is nothing – the Habs should be able to light him up in this series.
    - The brain surgeon that threw a beer at Richards deserves to have his teeth knocked down his throat. That’s uncalled for and gives Habs fans a bad name.

    Habsfansrsoft:

    I seem to remember one of your porky compatriots getting his bald head smacked around by Tie Domi (a Canadian) after he tossed some booze at Domi.

    That said, I’ve always found a contingent of Habs fans to be an embarrassment to our country, the city, and the team. Booing the national anthem is completely classless, and tossing beer on Richards is absolutely unacceptable, and the riots are shameful. That said, there’s nothing that compares in the NHL to the complete cheap shots that Flyers’ PLAYERS have committed in the NHL this year. You can’t hold the team responsible for the behavior of 1% of its fans, but you certainly can for the behavior of players that it keeps in its lineup.

    Well if you look at the penalty every one called it a hip check but actually the first part of the check was a can opener move with his stick that is what cause Kovy to start to loose his balance then the hip and then the push. The League has been trying to stop players from making those kind of checks because they are potential season ending injuries. Philly should know better than to attempt a check like that so close to the end of the game, especially when it was not even in their defensive zone.

    Bottom line is we did not play our best but we still won. It seemed every time we would get the momentum you would get a lucky bounce and we were down a goal again. It was hard for our team to get any momentum with all those breaks you were getting.

    3rd goal he made the first save but the D-man could not take out the player to the side of the net.

    Now I know that we are dealing with someone who knows absolutely nothing about hockey. First of all the goal was not a high stick. Not only was the stick just below the cross bar but in order for the goal not to count it also had to be above Kovalev’s shoulder and it wasn’t.

    And if you have been following hockey at all this year know would not that the penalty has been called all year, the refs have been instructed to call all Knee on Knee checks and beside the check started with the stick.

Further, it was the only powerplay the Habs were given in the entire game. Why don’t you add somehitng a litle more objective to the conversation in here?

    I can see that retardism runs rampant through Quebec, the Richards call was so dumb that I felt embarrassed for you guyd winning that game. Not to mention THE HIGH STICK GOAL FROM KOVALEV. Cheap ****, so cheap.

    Self-defeating comments. Smarten up.

    To Joseph, welcome to the REAL playoffs for the first time in 15 years. It will only get better.

    It certainly will when your team is eliminated and your subsequent absence from this blog ensues.

    Welcome to the playoffs for the first time in 15 years? Are you kidding? When’s the last time that your team was significant? 1975? You betcha.

You, on the other hand probably expect the habs to win the cup. significance tells a story, a long story of many recent post season appearances by the flyers as opposed to the habs recent outings.

    Yo portly, he had one of his worst games we scored on of your goals, the second goal he had no chance on and the third was a lucky bounch of your man’s skate. To me this was his weakest performance in the playoffs and than includes the two games that Boston scored 5 on him of which most were not his fault. If you can only score two goals on him when he plays a bad game then you are going to have trouble beating him most nights.

    We know you are having fun, likewise, I like to see the refs but their whistle in their pockets most nights and I agree let them play, but the bottom line is if Brisebois had not scored on his own net, this game would probably been an entirely different game. That seemed to put us back on our heels and although we did recover, that third goal you guys got a a few second left on the PP was a killer, personally I hate those types of goals no matter who scores then, I always believe in the he shoots he scores type of goals.

    Price is going to play better next game, as will the habs. But it’s destiny that the habs keep winning even tho they really haven’t played well in the playoffs. So if we win, when not playing well, imagine what would happen when we bring our A game. Flyer’s fans have only seen a tip of the iceberg, The real habs team is coming, in waves! This year: HABS ARE A TEAM OF DESTINY!

    One other comment, that is the reason why coaches keep telling their players to shot the puck, because you never know where it will end up and many times it is in the back of the net.

    Considering that the habs did not play their best game and the Flyers played well and also got the bounces I think the overtime was a fitting end to the game. And the best thing for us habs fans was it was a clean goal by our lunch bucket guys and we won!

    I too am a very critical fan of my team as well. Although, I think if they keep this team’s core in tact for at least 2 to 3 years they could be dangerous. Plus, I don’t think the habs should have traded Huet. Even if price wins this series, he’s still pretty much an unproven young backstop.

    There’s been a lot of controversy surrounding the Huet trade. And I, for one, initally thought it a bad one, especially considering how little we got in return for him (in my opinion). However, Price, who had proven himself at all levels prior to the NHL, is now proving that he can bacstop the Habs to wins in the playoffs… not to mention, a shutout against Boston in Game 7. The kid seems to feel no pressure. He’s a goaltending phenom. In addition, Huet was an UFA in the off-season and likely one that was going elsewhere.

    That said, I still think that they should have gotten more in return for Huet.

    Unfortunately, it would have been nice to get more for Huet, but other than Washington no one wanted him and Gainey got down to the wire and he either lost him as a UFA or he got the best offer he could get and that was a second rounder. We have a lot of second and third rounders on this team even some fifth and sixth rounders, so you cannot judge the draft pick until it is made and we see the fruits or spoils of the trade. You never know we might get another Larry Robinson who was a late round draft pick.

    Common, guys, let’s back off the needles and the jabs against the Flyer fans.
    We all know in our heart of hearts it could (should?) have been us on the losing end, and we all know what a downer a loss in overtime can be.
    Flyer fans, my dig against Mrs. K. Smith was a cheap shot. I could say it was the “BLOG state of mind”, but I won’t. It was ignorant on my part.

It’s hard to judge that game… the flyers goals were ugly, but sometimes ugly goals win you games. Not this time. The habs goals were more skilled(AK46 and AK27) and went in due to hard work and determination(TK06).
    I’m laughing at these trolls saying that the habs were lucky to win. I think the Flyers were lucky to be even leading the game on both occasions. Nice comeback tonight, and let’s show em why we were first in the East on Saturday by just murdering them. Saturdays game prediction: Habs 6-2! Series prediction: Habs in five!

    There is still a lot of Hockey left to play in this series, May it be 4 straight, 5, 6 or 7.

    Montreal can’t let their guard down for one min. They have to play like there is no tommorrow. Play like it is game 7. Knock of these “Chump”Flyers as quick as they can and then they can rest up for the next round. The further a series goes the less rest they will have. Every 6 to 7 round series will catch up with you as the deeper you go. Play full out every night, finish it and rest…

    What a joke last night was….I now see its the Flyers vs Canada not just Montreal. Don’t get me wrong it’s not the Canadiens I have a problem with but are you going to tell me that 2nd goal wasn’t hit with a high stick???? Its pretty safe to say when the stick ends up sitting on top of the crossbar that it was in fact high sticking(although great hands to even make the play happen). Of course the review war room is also in Canada so I am not really surpried that you all will stick together until you bring a cup home to one of your four undeserving teams. The Richards Penatly was bull$hit too but hey thats in real time so I can’t get to mad except you can’t call that with the time reaming in the game unless it totally justified. Very classy move to throw beer on Richards too, in case you forgot he is also from Canada. I can’t wait till you punks come to Philly.

    That was probably the worst game the Habs played so far in the playoffs, other than perhaps the shallacking from Boston one game in round 1. So, the big difference between this brutal performance and the last one is that the Habs still won. If the Canadians played an average game, the score last night is maybe 6 or 7 to 1.

    Yet, this is how Phily played in the whole series against Washington. So unless Phily elevates their game to a higher level, or unless Montreal just plays brutal the entire series, this one is over in 4.

    And yes, that puck was “clearly” hit with a high stick OVER the cross-bar, as any blind man could tell you from having watched the replay 100 times in slow motion. And no, Richards clean check at the end of the game on a player who had beat him cleanly wasn’t a penalty, it was simply a simply a clean “leg check”. And yes, people in Toronto are always biased in favor of Montreal. And yes, the NHL loves to see American teams get beat out, because the NHL is really concerned with expanding the popularity of hockey in Canada. And yes, Montreal got all the lucky bounces, including two lucky bounces right off Phily’s goal post in the first period. Blah Blah Blah. You know, that’s the difference between Habs fans and fans from other team (except maybe the Red Wings). When our team sucks, we know it, and when they lose, we don’t make excuses.

    … are you going to tell me that 2nd goal wasn’t hit with a high stick????

    Yes. It’s not where the stick is but where the puck and stick made contact, which was, in fact, not above the crossbar. Further, Kovalev held his stick below his shoulders on the play, which is more what the replay folks go on these days.

    It’s funny that so many Flyers fans should complain about the officiating last night. What a silly excuse to fall back on. Especially after what unfolded in Game 7 in their series against Washington. Any Flyer fans remember that second Flyer goal in Game 7? Any Flyer fans remember that powerplay awarded to their team in overtime after the whistles had been retired for almost two full periods? And now you’re going to come in here and pull the ref card out? That’s… pretty funny.

    talking about giving penalties at the end of a game or OT: Wasn’t Philly the recipient of a penalty called against the Caps in OT? If not for that PP goal, the Flyers would not won that game. remember that flyers fan.
    And remember that the rules regarding a stick at the same height of the crossbar, say it’s a goal. I can’t believe these sour grapes.
    The habs actually were called for more penalties than the flyers. Maybe the refs are anti habs. During the course of the regular season haven’t we all complained about all the bad calls against the habs, and that the officials like to stick it to the habs? flyers fans have no idea what were talking about? And if the same thing happened to their team, do you think they would complain? honestly!

    The post-game interview with Flyers coach Stevens was amusing as well. Anyone catch that one? He said that the Habs got all the breaks in the game. Really, John? When the Habs hit the posts behind Biron twice in the first 10 minutes, they were getting the breaks? When the first Flyer goal was deflected in off of Brisebois’s stick, the Habs were getting the breaks? When Markov scored one second to late in the first period, the Habs were getting the breaks? When the third Flyer goal bounced off of Price’s glove, off of a skate, and then in to the net, the Habs were getting the breaks?

    I like sports. I like the biased view that coaches and players and fans have following a game. It’s very entertaining.

    The only thing I am in agreement with is the classlessness of the fan that threw a beer at Richards. That’s not just classless, that’s embarrassing. But hey, the Flyers’ fansbase has its share of classless fans as well. Anyone remember the fan that fell in to the penalty box with Tie Domi? That’s not just classless, that’s incredibly stupid.

    I recall a playoff series between Toronto and Philadelphia several years ago where the now forgotten Sergei Berezin scored the GWG on the powerplay in OT. Clarke was livid after the game, claiming tht the refs were biased, and further that they must have been from Toronto. What Clarke seemd to overlook was the fact that his Flyers were awarded 7 (seven!) straight powerplays in the second period of that game. They failed to capitalize on any of them, and when the Leafs did in OT the game was suddenly ‘fixed’.

    On that note, does anyone see a correlation between Clarke’s whining about officiating and the whining about officiating that’s witnessed among Flyers fans?

    Anyway, the Flyers thought that they were going to steal Game 1, but no such luck. The Habs got the job done with a minimal amount of effort last night, which should speak volumes to both Habs and Flyers fans. If this team ever brought its A game for more than one game–and it better if the Habs have any hopes of seeing the SCF–then the Flyers would be in serious trouble… unless they show that they are capable of a much better game than they showed last night or in any of their games against Washington (a team that overachieved down the stretch just to get in).

They have no right to blame the refs for your win after the first round was given to them. The goal was not hit in with a high stick. You could also see that Richards stuck out his leg.

    The better team did not win the first round, but so be it. The better team will win this round and that will be the Habs in 5. Good luck in this series and don’t let the trolls get to you. That is all they have. Abusive language without any true knowledge.

I have no problems with the refs last night although I did think Richards penatly was a little weak. The only problem I have was a the beer that hit Richie in the penalty box…. just no need for that.

    Welcome, CT Caps Fan. While many here were afraid of a potential ECF match-up against Huet and Ovechkin, I would have liked to have seen your team move on. Ovechkin brings the kind of passion that makes this game fun to watch, especially at this time of year. As does the play of Backstrom and Semin. However, I knew that if Philly could silence Ovechkin for most of the series, the Caps would be in tight. And to the Flyers’ credit, they did just that. But there’s always next season, when your younger players have matured another year, and gained some valuable playoff experience along the way.

    Flyersfan, it was a good game last night. And the ending was dramatic. Habs fans and Flyes fans will always see the penalty call from different perspectives, but according to the rule book, what Richards did justified a penalty call, whether it was intentional or not. he stuck out his backend and caught Kovalev on the leg, tripping him upon entering the offensive zone with the puck. I mean, of course that’s a penalty.

    As to the beer thrown at Richards, I concur. It was shameful. But one idiot does not a fanbase make.

    @ Joseph, thanks! We are very excited for the new Caps. We think they will be a very good if not great team for many years to come, plus they have the lowest payroll (i.e. lots of money left) of most any team so we can be aggressive this year.

    Wow, it would have been an amazing series to see the Caps and the Habs play and it would have been in the Conf Finals too, if things worked out. Oh well, I am sure in the near future it will happen.

    Joseph – I agree with you if I was a “Hab” fan i would have seen the Richards penalty the other way, it just look like a shoulder not a knee to philly fan. I knew as soon as it was called you guys were gonna score 6-4 your team is very talented and very agressive on your PP. It should be a good series just like the last one with the Caps who I also love to watch. I do see Montreal winning this series but if we can get in Price’s head with alot of shots and some contact we do have a shot to score some goals on him. Anyway good luck Habs here is one Philly fan who respects your team, pride and country.

    Flyersfan, if only there were more like you. (I’m sure that there are, but just few of whom come in here.)

    Thanks for being a passionate yet objective fan.

    The only thing that I would add is this: Price has proven himself to be the real deal as far as all the hype surrounding him was concerned. This kid is a goaltending phenom at 20 years of age. He doesn’t lose his cool, he doesn’t crack under pressure and he rarely gets rattled. So the Flyers will have their work cut out for them if they hope to throw him off of his game. He’s also a technically sound goaltender, not only positionally but also with regard to playing angles and controlling rebounds, so they’ll have to shoot through traffic, as they did on their second goal last night, to score on him consistently. But this is easier said than done. The Habs have some big defensemen who are good at clearing the crease and blocking shots.

    Speaking of the second goal, obstructing Price was something that the Habs had discussed prior to this series, which would explain Price’s reaction to the second Flyers goal in last night’s game – his own defenseman (I forget who) was standing in his line of sight when that goal was scored. Price threw up his arms as if to say ‘Guys, didn’t we agree to try and avoid this sort of thing?’

    Anyway, I respect Canada, its hockey fans and my Habs, too, but it’s not my country of birth. I’m originally from the other side of the state, in Penguinsville.

    I really believe the Flyers got the bounces, and the Habs got the calls. Too bad the latter made more of a difference. Oh well, I feel the Flyers played far better against the Habs than the Caps. Being a Flyer fan, im rooting for them and after the game, I feel this will be a close series.

    Habs Team Chemistry looks very good right now. My only problem is with Carb’s insistence on not changing the lineup.

    Lapierre -2 with only 8 minutes Ice Time Game 1, fine he can play physical, but lets give someone else a chance.

    Dandenault -1 with 6 minutes, and slow as Hell !

    Streit -1 with 9 minutes, always looks likes hes going to give up the puck – frustrating to watch.

    If I was coaching, I would make sure rotate a couple of these guys in next game for sure. Scotty Bowman was the best at always rotating your 4th line players, to keep everyone hungry and fresh. Carbs has a lot to learn there.

    Chipchura – hes great defensively – and deserves a shot. He could really help on taking out Flyers best player, Briere etc.

    Latendresse – hes better than Dandenault for sure.

    Ryder – not sure about this one, but doesnt he deserve another shot?

    Brock Trotter – would love to see this kid play, maybe hes a real gem – doubt we will find out this year.

    And on D, how about giving Hamilton call ups Mathieu Carle and Pavel Valentenko a shot? What about O’Byrne – he would match up well against some of the bigger Philly Forwards.

    Brisebois could use at least one game in the press box.

    We have too many of the same type of D playing.

    Fine they are all great moving the puck quickly – but not too good when you cant get the puck !

    Flyersfan, all I can say is that the Richards penalty was a tougher call then the Goalie interference on Huet and Washington.

    Seing Richards hit Kovalev from the referee facing him might of been obviously that it was the shouder, but the other referee that sees it from the back, those see the knee sticking. Tough luck. We cannot base the whole game on one play as there where so many in that game that could of changed everything. And thats on both sides.

    Admittedly, I didn’t get a great look at the replay on the Richards hit. But either way, is it not interference when a player puts the puck behind you and you obstruct him from getting to it… especially in open ice… especially in an attempt to gain the offensive zone?

    Anyway. For Flyers fans, a powerplay opportunity cannot be blamed for the game tying goal. The Flyers’ inability to win the face-off and get the puck out, on the other hand, can.

    Penguins and Rangers in five minutes… should be a good one to watch.

    When you are swatting DOWN on a puck that was above your shoulders or crossbar IT WAS IS A HIGH STICK!! Oh and I didn’t know that you knee was above your torso when you play for the flyers.

    SORRY WRONG AGAIN, READ THE RULES THEY EXPLAINED THE RULE AFTER THE GAME THE OTHER NIGHT. AND SHOULD SHOULD WATCH THE GAME AGAIN AND SEE HOW HIS STICK MADE THE FIRST CONTACT THEN THE KNEE. THE PENALTY HAS BEEN CALLED ALL YEAR, AND IF IT WAS THAT BAD OF A CALL YOUR COACH WOULD HAVE BEEN A LOT MORE UPSET. YOU OBVIOUSLY ARE A LITTLE BIAS ABOUT YOUR LOSS.

    marblehead, you apparently have some anger issues that you need to work out for yourself. Nothing you had to express here is worth commenting on.

    Anyone see the Penguins-Rangers game tonight? What a strange game. Three goals came directly from defelctions off of defensemen’s skates on attempting centering passes.

    Anyway, the Rangers lead 3-0 and lost 5-4. I think that they’re making a new name for themselves – ‘Kings of Blown Leads’. And significant leads at that.

    When a player is booed it’s actually a compliment to that player. He’s being booed because he’s usually the best player on the opposing team. All hockey fanbases do this. It’s nothing new.

    What a joke last night was….I now see its the Flyers vs Canada not just Montreal. Don’t get me wrong it’s not the Canadiens I have a problem with but are you going to tell me that 2nd goal wasn’t hit with a high stick????

    IT IS NOT WHERE THE STICK WAS IT IS WHERE IT MAKES CONTACT WITH THE PUCK, THE CROSS BAR IS NOT THE ONLY GUIDE IN ORDER FOR IT TO BE A HIGH STICK IT MUST BE ABOVE THE PLAYERS SHOULDER, IN BOTH CASES THE LOWER PART OF THE STICK MADE CONTACT WITH THE PUCK WHICH WAS BELOW THE CROSS BAR CLEARLY ON THE REPLAY YOU COULD SEE THAT AND SINCE THE BAR IS LESS THAN 5 FEET HIGH THE STICK WAS NOT ABOVE THE KOVY’S SHOULDERS. THEREFORE IN BOTH CASES IT HAD TO BE CALLED A GOAL.

    I tend to agree the NYR would be an easier to play against. However, I like their goaltending but I did not see the game tonight, someone said there were a lot of goals off skates. I think MYR have the better goaltending game in and game out but any goalie can get hot for a series or two.

    I just think that Pittsburg have a lot of talent on their team, question is can they play a good team game if their talented players get shut down? I guess we will have to wait an see, the Rangers have talent and experience which really makes it confusing to see them loose games where they have a leads.

    He’s 20 years old, and playing in his first playoff. Also, you have to remember that Dryden and Roy didn’t exactly pitch shutouts every game. Price is as good as either was.

    One more thing, Joe…

    Consider the nature of the three Flyer goals. The first was deflected off of Brisebois’s stick (no goaltender is stopping that). The second was shot upper corner, past a blinded Price (no goaltender is stopping that). And the third was off the top of Price’s glove, off of Lupul’s leg/skate, and in to the net (perhaps the only one that Price could assume some of the blame for).

    Posted on April 25th, 2008 at 7:53 pm. About ‘Habs / Flyers: Game 1′.

    1) booing another countrys national anthem. Shame on you!!

    Just as the fans in San Jose did to the Canadian anthem two years ago? Or the fans in New York did during the Team Canada-Team USA World Cup Final several years ago?

    This is an old and stupid argument. For one, it’s always a minority of fans that actually does the booing, and such a minority of fans is certainly not restricted to Montreal. Secondly, get over yourself with regard to the national anthem. You didn’t write it, and I’d be interested in hearing your translation of what it actually means. Finally, you’re expressing your anger to a bunch of fans that weren’t even at the game booing anthems – shame on you.

    2) Singing *** songs at a hockey game. What kind of Hockey fan does that, this is Hockey!!

    Once again, you’ve got some anger issues that you need to work out for yourself.

    It is none of your business how the fans of Montreal choose to support their team. None. Do you even know the origin of this song? Do you even know what it means? It doesn’t really matter what your answers are because Habs fan can celebrate their team in any manner that they choose.

    3) Destroying your city after a first round win over the 8th seed?

    Try doing the minimal amount of research required to get your facts straight. Police concluded that it wasn’t hockey fans at all that participated in the post-game riots, but rather fans from a hip-hop concernt that let out and intermixed with the post-game celebration party. AS you probably know, hip-hop culture is both rebellious and opportunistic. What better opportunity than thousands of fans in the streets to cause a little mayhem.

    Biggest Loser fan base in pro sports goes to the Montreal Canadians fans!!!

    I love hockey and I respect the Montreal Canadiens even though they are going nowhere but the fans a bunch of losers.

    It’s obvious that you are a bitter person with issues, and likely ones that have little or nothing to do with hockey. Shed some of your ignorance and try living in a world that isn’t based on delusions. And for god’s sake, learn some manners before you come to the fan site of another team.

    I watched Price in the first round, he was awful. The shutout in game seven was due to the habs defense they clogged up the slot and didnt let the Bruins get quality scoring chances. Price let up many soft goals in that series but I hear that he is talented and Im sure that he will improve.

    Now you’re just being retarded. For someone who supposedly has been involved with hockey for 40 years, you certainly know nothing about the game. Price is obviosuly world class, and the booing of top players on opposing teasm has been going on in arenas around the NHL for years. Your ignorance shines through like a diamond in the sunlight here.

    You know, marblehead, it seems to me that you are more jealous of the Habs and their fans than anything else. You try to find fault with the players, the fans where it doesn’t exist, and you fabricate negatives where they cannot be found.

    What Senet 1 meant was that he has a history of going after the smaller (relative to the rest of the league) and less physical opposition.

    Regardless, as I said, an opposition team’s player is booed if either a) he has a history with the team whose fans are booing him, b) he in a known pest (i.e. Sean Avery), or c) he is that team’s best player, and thus the fans boo him to throw him off of his game… just as the San Jose fans did to Phaneuf in the first round against Calgary… just as the Edmonton fans did to Pronger after he signed with Anaheim… just as New Jersey fans did with Gomez during the first rounf against New York… and on and on and on.
