Dont forget Heineman and Evans, both are on a roll.
Go Habs Go!
- Thread starter talkinghead
- Start date
...et LAINE se dit très motivé pour le match de ce soir.....aimerait bien vaincre son ancienne équipe et leur en mettre plein la vue......à suivre.
Prior to the game Laine implied that the Blue Jackets organization didn’t want to win so that’s why he wanted out & agreed to join the Habs. This didn’t sit well with the Jackets & many of the players so the team decided to scrap the Laine tribute montage that they had planned to show in the middle of the first period.
Anyways the Habs lost 5-4 in a tightly contested game where Columbus scored the game winner in the final minutes of the game. Laine left the game after a bodycheck & did not return.

Ouin....un vrai match du 23 Décembre.....la tête ailleurs...agree du cafouillage en masse....et que dire again du cafouillage de DACH qui seul devant le gardien a 3 belles occasions de la mettre dedans..et niet....
Ouin un match qui laisse un goût amer......et de plus on perd LAINE.
Parlant de LAINE-----après réflexion il aurait dû garder pour lui ses commentaires d'avant-match sur COLUMBUS......se faisant il les a piqué d'aplomb et ils sont sortis forts et agressifs.....et on en a payé le gros prix et lui aussi.
Il y a toujours un moment pour livrer sa pensée MAIS IMO hier n'était pas le bon.......d'autant plus face à une organisation qui a vécu une difficile période avec GAUDREAU.....et qui se préparait à lui rendre hommage.....mauvais mauvais timing.

Le mot d’ordre chez les Blue Jackets était clair: sortir Laine du match. Ils y sont parvenus en moins de 7 minutes, durant lesquelles Laine a reçu 4 mises en échec et quelques coups de bâton.
Certe, Laine aurait dû se fermer la gueule, surtout juste avant le match. Mais , au banc du Canadien, on aurait pu se rendre compte rapidement de la situation, autant les joueurs que les entraîneurs. Dans des circonstances comme celle-ci, tu penses en équipe et la priorité était de protéger ton joueur vedette.
Quitte à oublier les 2 points de la victoire, tu y va avec le dicton "oeil pour œil, dent pour dent ". Tu dois donc dire à tes joueurs que les mises en échec doivent être douloureuses et ce, tout au long du match. Ton "bouncer" doit livrer un ou deux combats, il faut que le message soit clair.
Malheureusement, Saint-Louis n’est pas dans cette philosophie là!
Laine Feature in Athletic: Requested Trade Because He "Was Tired Of Losing and Giving Up":
www.nytimes.com
“I feel like we were just doing the same thing year after year. I was tired of losing and just giving up when it’s December to start focusing on next year. I’m not going to do that. That’s frustrating as a player when you’re trying to win and some people are, you know, not like that.
“They’re a little too satisfied and too comfortable where they’re at. It wasn’t really a fit for me anymore. But here (in Montreal), it doesn’t matter if we’re winning or losing, we’re always trying our best. That’s what I felt about it (in Columbus).”
Laine was pressed by reporters to clarify if he was referring to his Blue Jackets teammates or the club’s management.
“I’ll leave that for everybody’s imagination,” Laine said. “But there were certainly, certainly people like that who were a little too comfortable and fine with losing and just doing the same thing year after year. I’m going to leave that up for discussion for everybody else.”
Patrik Laine on Blue Jackets trade request: ‘I was tired of losing and just giving up’
Laine will face his former club for the first time since his summer trade to the Canadiens Monday night in Columbus.

It seems like no love is lost between Laine and his former team and he isn't bashful about posting pregame bulletin board material. That story was published before yesterday's game.
I am surprised none of you guys mentioned the story. I find it a bit refreshing that Laine speaks his mind even at the cost of raising up the bulletin board fodder.

I only see that now that I am on my laptop. My laptop autotranslates the French posts, but the phone does not.

First of all I compliment you on your use of the word aplomb here. Very appropriate word choice. And that is what it was, in Laine you have a guy who is going to tell it like it is, whether you want to hear it or not.
Cayden Primeau will be put on waivers tomorrow
News out of Habsland confirmed that Jakub Dobes was called up from Laval & will get his first NHL start tomorrow against Florida. The Habs will put the struggling Cayden Primeau on waivers tomorrow in order to send him down. I estimate the chances of him being claimed at 50/50.

Oh boy....ça repart today.....espérons que la dinde soit bien digérée....lol.....parce que ce qui s'en vient ne sera pas de la tarte......5 games sur la route....FLO----TAMPA-VEGAS---CHI---COL....wow....rien de rassurant et pourrait définitivement régler notre sort pour cette
année.....et on commence ça today avec un gros gros point d'interrogation devant le filet.....hiiiiii....alors enjoy.
