Habs 2, Blues 3 (SO): Throw another pie in his face

For once, just once, I would like someone to ask Therrien some tough questions. Are media members afraid of him? Are they concerned they'll piss off their old RDS buddy? Does he need the kid gloves, spilless, and spork?

Let's try one.
"What was your thinking in shortening your bench only after you had repeated your errors from Friday's game by allowing the 4th line out randomly in the 3rd where they got scored on, again, when you had the lead? Was that not too late?"

Another one:
"You were given one powerplay with the game tied. Why was Martin St-Pierre given more time on this powerplay over Galchenyuk, Gallagher, Eller, Pacioretty, Bourque and Plekanec? Was this not a good moment in the game to go for the kill?"

Maybe one more:
"Was there any reason as to why PK Subban was essentially benched with the game tied and three minutes til overtime for Bouillon and Murray?"

Guess it was ok to ask these things and hang these blown 3rd periods on Jacques Martin. Get some balls, press. Or get Jessica Rusnak back in there.

By the way, I don't give a rat's ass about breaking the shot blocking record. "I know one thing, when you're blocking a lot of shots, the puck's in your end a lot." Ken Hitchcock said that after the game. I think he knows something about hockey.

Also I'm tired of "giving the other team credit". You're in your home. You were up 2-1. Fuck them. You put your fourth line out, and Parros is too slow to get to the guy on the point. Bang. Puck bounces off 4 elbows past Price who was standing on his fucking head to get you a win against a top team.

This is why this team will be a pretender: shit coaching will be their undoing.

Habs 0, Blues 3: Sigh

Oh I'm sorry, was there a game tonight? Might want to have told the Habs that.

Not that I'm shocked with this outcome. Ken Hitchcock... Why did you have to bring him back? That's like Jacques Lemaire annoying.

Unlike the media, I saw this game as nothing more than another date on the calendar, another possible point or two. That was assuming someone could shoot straight and not totally block Price's view or miss picking up a trailer who was wide open. It's been two years since Jaro left. I don't care about him anymore. Hurrah standing ovation, yes that's nice. I'm focused on my team thanks. We have Lars Eller and Carey Price, stop bitching about how green the grass is on another's lawn.

Joy to the fucking world: Gionta reinjured. Was so angry he threw his stick down the hallway. At this point, I'd wrap him in a warm blanket and rock him to sleep for the rest of the season, find a way to lose Campoli/Kaberle (in a ditch), and pray for Grigorenko.
