If Price can answered you. He will say chill out Brian. The team is not that bad. The played a good game. Price no issue at all. He will find his game.
To bad we can’t edit.
If price can answer he will tell you to chill out.
I’m calling it first: wins in SJ, LA and ANA. 😊
I saw Hemsky once tonight. He turned the puck over on a cow-flop-soft play that nearly resulted in a goal against. The writing is on the wall. There’s no way that Carr/Scherbak/McCarron are a worse option than Hemsky at this point.
But as you say, Brian, it’s all details until Carey is Carey-esque again. He was great against Buffalo (1st goal aside), solid vs Rangers, and sub-Priceian in the other games.
But the Habs organization would rather always play veterans over rookies. I don’t know why, but they rarely give the kids a shot
I remember last season whe Habs had that dreadful stretch in Dec/Jan. Price had .890 Sv%.He rebounded pretty strong and no reason to believe he won’t now. I don’t got a lot of confidence in Montoya to steal some games from Price so we get him to play through it
Habs should bring up Daniel Carr to replace Hemsky on the fourth line. He has more energy and his net drive could be an asset to this team.
They absolutely need to dump Hemsky. I wasn’t happy with this signing when it happened but lived with it because we didn’t overpay and you never know when a change of scenery will spark something in a player. In this case it didn’t and we need to cut our losses and send him packing. We have Carr who can easily replace him and always puts a solid effort in.
I agree.
