Quick!
Get out of New York before the cops get to Madison Square Garden.
Outplayed for 40 minutes in their second game in two nights, your Montreal Canadiens got a go-ahead goal from rookie Alex Galchenyuk and an empty-netter by Raphael Diaz to upset the Rangers.
And guess who sits atop the Eastern Conference standings?
It was Galchenyuk’s second of the season and first on the road.
Diaz’s goal was his first.
Carey Price made 24 stops

Man I hate those ‘splodasticks.
cheap sticks… oh wait
need a point for sure
Dig deep boys!
Based on the condensed sched it is good that most of the Habs game this year have had minimal up and down action…Very few firewagon type games..it seems both teams are sluggish in Habs games this year…
Cole’s looked out of shape since the start. I would have thought by now he’d be getting there. Maybe still has a nagging injury.
Watching highlights; does anybody else on here wince when they hear/see the name Clitsome?

I kinda gigglesnort…
was thinking the same thing.
So….many…..jokes………

And no last call in effect…..
Clitsome is still wet behind the ears.
Think we could get decent return on Cole? There must be a GM who would trade for him. He’s coming off a 35 goal season and he looks disinterested, so a change of scenery might be what he needs.
I really want him to get back to last year’s form because he was a hero last year, but he looks more and more uncaring of being a Hab with each game.
I have a better idea:
Let’s keep him because he’s good.
—Hope Springs Eternal—
I know the 15 games or so this year vs the 82 last year shouldn’t amount for much but it’s hard to watch a guy who generally doesn’t seem to care anymore. Reminding me of Cammalleri before he left, except with more worth coming off the previous season.
Not sure anyone would refuse if we got a younger, 20 or so goal guy in return, though. I guarantee it wouldn’t happen, but you never know.
sounds good to me
82 games vs. 16 games – that’s quite the fair comparison.
Cole is having an off year, but so are a coupe of other guys. There is no need to throw them under the bus, especially guys who scored 35 goals just a season ago.
Yeah, in retrospect the comparison isn’t entirely fair(as I mentioned above just now). His apparent regular lack of effort is concerning, though.
I don’t think it is lack of effort but just an off season. He is probably not in the best shape due to being involved in the lockout, etc.
Look for him to pick it up. If he continues to play poorly next season then that’s a different story, but it’s ridiculous how fickle we can be when it comes to our players.
Good point. Fine, I’ll give him till next week
In fairness, Jackel may be right. We should give Cole more than just 16 games. His off season comments have me leery, but let’s give him the benefit of the doubt for now.
Chrisadiens and HabFan10912, one of the few father son tandems on HIO.
I think he will come around. We shouldn’t be getting down on these guys. Cole is probably still adjusting. I think he will turn it around and finish strong and bring that into next season.
Now, if he still plays like he is now next season, then it might the case that something is up with his interest/competitive drive.
Also, I hope I didn’t sound like I was belittling your point, I just think we can’t be putting these guys down because of a bad start – it happens to all players.
Also – GOAL!
Nah we’re good bud.
Chrisadiens and HabFan10912, one of the few father son tandems on HIO.
It’s almost as if Cole and Bourque switched bodies
As per Boone’s comments, I actually only came on here to talk about Cole. I don’t understand how a player could hustle as much as he did leading to the Pacioretty goal, yet be so lazy, standing…STANDING…for what seemed like forever watching Stralman score.
Is he hurt?
Does he care anymore?
Was last season a happy accident for his personal stats?
Maybe a personal problem?
I don’t understand.
that is a great question Boone, any way Dave can figure it out?
Cole’s a part time moderator.
I’d be happy with a point out of this game the way it is going now.
Just saw the replay again, anyone want to support what Cole did on that play ?
I would…he’s clearly going for the lethargy play of the game!
Personally i would like to know why moen left his defensive position on the left side to cross to the right side of the ice,this is why cole had to switch to the left side. I would also like to know where the left defenceman was and also the center, who is actually supposed to be the support player in the defensive slot.Not your right winger. Cole was weak on the play but there were at least 2 other players who should have been there. Plenty of blame to go around on that play.
Man I don’t enjoy hearing PJ Brunet talking on RDS either haha

This game is going to a shoot out
Phil Jackson of the Lakers used to call the 2nd leg of a back to back “League mandated losses”…lol..Habs are keeping the scoring chances down by NY at least..
Everyone keep crapping on Cole. it’s working. Who else?
Question…How does someone with a troll name who uses profanity not get instantly banned?
Mods asleep at the switch.

Last years top like is slowly waking up !
http://nickolaisblog.wordpress.com/
Shame it’s not a 7:30 start, the 12-year-olds on here are usually in bed by the 3rd period.
Oh well.
—Hope Springs Eternal—
It doesn’t matter. They bring their iPods to bed.
When I was a kid I used to take my ancient clock radio under the covers with me to listen to late games in the West. Dick Irvin’s voice and the “JOCK ITCH” commercials… Then waking up in the middle of the night to hear Ted Tevan chewing somebody out.
—Hope Springs Eternal—
My boy Patchy!
Krieder is a biiiiiig lad, really should have been drafted by MTL………..
Go change your name.
—Hope Springs Eternal—
MAN, that siren they have to end the period sounds atrocious.
Kreider again…
MSG TV is asking why it’s not icing.. Linesman called no icing the entire time. Self pass and Del Zotto coulda got there earlier.
Cole is forgiven….for now.
HAHA, atta boy buddy!
We go shift by shift Chris.
But not forgotten.
Alright, bag of pucks and 1ply toilet paper.
Yeah!!! Patches! And off a good effort by our favourite new retiree!
@Burly. Jagermeister again? Hey,the only time I tried it ,it was mixed with Red Bull. I started dancing ,fell down and my heart almost blew up.That stuff is a young mans sport amigo.
Front, the Jager with Red BUll reminds me of the soft drink Tahiti Treat, I drink the Jager straight, after every Hab Goal especially!
you are a tad too old for Jagerbombs…..
It had to be said…..
You certainly out-drink most young frat boys, amigo.
Oh man, jagerbombs…those take me back…
Jager cold and straight up. Beer chaser OK

We’ll have to wait to win this game for 2-ply Charmin. lol
Nice work by Cole…
DD much better tonight
So we all still Hate Cole right?…..
And we should have sat Desharnais.
—Hope Springs Eternal—
Only cuz he’s French.
bla bla bla..stop picking on him..we stink..plan the route..ooops we stink..plan the route..
That goal doesn’t happen without Cole.
Neither would the Rangers goal!
\”Winning is habit. Unfortunately, so is losing\”
DD took out two D men for that goal!
Cole for captain!!!
Hope he keeps it up, great effort!Cole was good on that goal
Nice work all the way around on that one
Two things:
Cole worked hard there and kept the pressure on.
DD screening Lundqvist with 2 people covering him.
—Hope Springs Eternal—
Cole worked harder than earlier, he still does not have the legs and this is his worse game to date.
Cole’s looked out of shape since the start. I would have thought by now he’d be getting there. Maybe still has a nagging injury.
Giving us a chance. Nice work, Max.
Boone, Cole was better, not good. He skated but did not hustle
Patches!
My god these camera angles are bad. Max Pac
On the positive side- it will be easier coming back from a 1 goal deficit than a 5 goal deficit

Max!
Habs hung Price out to dry AGAIN!
\”Winning is habit. Unfortunately, so is losing\”
Nice!
woa
Cole is sucking but why is he being called out for that goal? Blame whoever was playing left D,center or left wing. Anyone one of those 3 are more responsible for stralman scoring then cole is.
I guess the camera showed Cole right there after Strahlman scored and it looked like he was looking to the official instead of covering a man, but point well taken, Cole is a whipping boy,
“It’s not an obsession, It’s a way of life..”
Cole just does not have the legs like last year
Habs record for fewest shots in a game:12
Didn’t Cole say he is considering retirement very soon?
Based on his comments at the start, and his play to date, suspect Cole is playing for the final buyout.
I lost respect for cole as soon as he made the comment about retirement after this season just because he would make less money
Not going to score from way out there
Calm down people…if they traded everyone you people are mad at we’d be conducting full team trades every week!
