Habs coach Marty St. Louis tonight on the struggling PP: “I think we’re squeezing our sticks too tight and our reading (of the game) isn’t very clear. When you badly want it to work, sometimes you rush things a bit more. We’re not calm I’d say. So we’re gonna look at it.”

Since Feb. 9th 2021, when Marty St. Louis was hired as the MTL coach: The Habs PP is ranked 31st out of 33 teams in the NHL (389 games played).

The Habs have basically had a good PP briefly twice during the Hughes & Gorton era in 4 years: 1) When Patrik Laine just joined the team last year after his injury. 2) When Ivan Demidov was first promoted to Habs PP1. The NHL figured them out both times. This is on MSL to fix.

The Habs lose 3-2 vs the Boston Bruins. Thoughts? 🤔

What’s Habs coach Marty St. Louis telling his team here with the net empty you think?

The Habs have zero puck luck these days.

Bold move by the Habs not to have a net-front presence on the PP anymore. (By bold we mean stupid)

The Habs PP is an absolute momentum killer

We regret to inform again you that the Habs have received another powerplay

#13 Cole Caufield with his 13th goal of the season 🔥

The Habs trail 3-2 vs the Bruins after the 2nd period. Thoughts? 🤔

ELITE SNIPER COLE CAUFIELD

So that’s what a good PP looks like…

The best scoring chance after three straight Habs PPs was David Pastrnak on a breakaway

Who is the coach who told Ivan Demidov to stop shooting the puck entirely on the Habs powerplay?

We regret to inform you that the Habs have received another powerplay

If the Habs can’t score on this second 5 on 3 PP…

Sometimes a picture is worth a thousand words

Shots from the point are still Sam Montembeault’s kryptonite…

The Habs had zero shots on net on a 5 on 3 PP for 1:28 mins.

The Habs are tied 1-1 vs the Bruins after the 1st period. Thoughts? 🤔

ELITE SNIPER JAKE EVANS

The Habs PK is getting better scoring chances than the Habs PP

What was going on here with the Habs…

The Habs PP is now 0-11. They haven’t scored a PP goal in their last 4 games.

Nick Suzuki doesn’t look like himself

It’s Habs game day 😎

Jared Davidson today on going from undrafted to playing his first NHL game tonight: “My whole life has just been a lot of work and trying to prove people wrong. Just show that I can do what I need to do. I think getting called up has just proved that to me.”

Jared Davidson today on what it means for him and his family to play his first career NHL game: “(It means) everything. My family sacrificed way too much probably. I can’t thank them enough...”

The Habs projected lineup vs the Boston Bruins tonight: Caufield - Suzuki - Slafkovsky Dach - Kapanen - Demidov Bolduc - Evans - Anderson Davidson - Veleno - Gallagher Matheson - Dobson Struble - Hutson Xhekaj - Carrier Montembeault Dobes Thoughts? 🤔

Habs players better be eating team dinners using only their hands and no cutlery from now on

If you have tickets to tomorrow’s Habs game and you can skate, be ready to be called upon in case the Montreal Canadiens need a warm body (you might even get to play more mins than Ivan Demidov)

“Alex Newhook (fractured ankle) underwent surgery today…He is expected to be out for 4 months.” “Kaiden Guhle (partially torn adductor muscle) underwent surgery yesterday…He is expected to miss 8-10 weeks.” Meanwhile Habs fans:

Nice to see Jared Davidson getting the much-deserved call up by the Habs. He has 9 goals & 2 assists for 11 points in 13 games this season for Laval.

Habs coach Marty St. Louis today on the injured Alex Newhook: “I didn’t see Alex this morning. For sure he’s going to miss some time. It’s not easy for a player who was having a good start to the season.

Sam Montembeault will get the start tomorrow for the Habs vs the Boston Bruins

It’s only an optional Habs practice today? 🤔

Habs coach Marty St. Louis yesterday on the loss: “It was a bizarre game. I’m going to be rational and look at things. It’s not fun to get beat like this at home but I think we were better than a 7-0 game.”

The Habs lose 7-0 vs the Dallas Stars. Thoughts? 😒

The Habs trail 5-0 vs the Stars after the 2nd period. Thoughts? 🤔

Just got back from the dep and the Habs are down 3-0 vs the Stars huh…

The Habs trail 1-0 vs the Stars after the 1st period. Thoughts? 🤔

When the Habs start the game with bunch of shots and have zero goals to show for it, you just know the opposing team is scoring first

The Habs have FIVE shots already? Who are these guys?!
