@TheBeat786657 @MauriceHockey @Sportsnet @kbieksa3 Long series. Habs just came off a highly emotional tight checking series. They will adapt to the run and gun style, that’s what they like best. Should he a good one. Let the best team win.

@Touchdown_22 @MauriceHockey @Sportsnet @kbieksa3 Habs were getting buried all night. I don’t think people respected the Sabres’ ability to punish teams.

"There were so many positives for Montreal." @kbieksa3 highlights all the good things that the Habs did in their loss to the Sabres to open the Second Round

@HabsOnReddit Will be back to win game 2, book it.

The Habs lose 4-2 vs the Sabres. They’re down 1-0 in the series. Thoughts? 🤔

@MauriceHockey @Sportsnet @kbieksa3 They just came off a week off, Habs will bounce back.

@Sportsnet @kbieksa3 All Buffalo fan in the comments not realizing MTL played their worst game. Tampa impressed me way more and i'm not even ragebaiting.

@HabsLaughs They will be fine.

Habs are fully gassed. They have nothing in the tank. Left it all on the ice in Tampa. Need to refuel.

@HabsChronicle Tampa hangover. Buffalo just had a week off too. We will be fine, this will be a run and gun, that is what we like best.

Overall, not a good game but could have been worse. #Habs coming off emotional game 7, now need to reset and adjust their gameplan defending the rush/transition. Critical game 2 coming up Friday.

@fnveenie Tampa Hangover. They will be better, and also this looks to be a departure from the tight checking series to a run and gun style series. This will suit us well.

Honestly, bad second period but this game is not as bad as it looks. Bounces have been all Buffalo. Habs are gonna be fine. Just have to win the next one.

Basketball is just a horrendous goofy game to watch on so many levels.

lol

@HabsOnReddit Cool!

Draw me like one of your French goals

lol

Most unlikable team in the league.

@thesickpodcasts @TonyMarinaro Lucky but they were the better team overall in this series so they deserved it.

ONE WORD: Use one word to describe the Habs winning the series over the Lightning! #thesickpodcast @TonyMarinaro

@HabsChronicle Robe a Dope?

Not sure the #Habs realize this could be their last game. 0 shots in the 2nd. 4 after 40.

@HabsOnReddit Maybe in team history.

This is the longest the Habs have gone all season without a shot in a game.

@HalfBaked802 @HabsOnReddit But also correct.

@HabsOnReddit Marty will tell you the pressure is on Tampa to win at home.

Habs coach Marty St. Louis tonight after the game 6 OT loss: “It’s meant to be. It’s destiny that wants our young team with many players who’ve never played a game 7. I think it’s part of our journey. You have to embrace it.”

Wrong. We already know we have to beat the refs too.

@Th3AnalystX @gravel_arnaud @BPMSportsRadio Pay attention to how the games are being played. He needs space and time and doesn’t get it.

@Touchdown_22 @gravel_arnaud @BPMSportsRadio I'm not talking about forecheching, I'm talking about going where he needs to be to score goals, especially in the playoffs, which is in the slot. Also, where he was when he scored his only goal!

Cole Caufield a été le 4e attaquant le moins utilisé lors du match numéro 5...

@Th3AnalystX @gravel_arnaud @BPMSportsRadio He’s not a forechecker, has never been his style, he scores with space and isn’t getting any.

@gravel_arnaud @BPMSportsRadio Y va pu dans le traffic! Gally et Dsch scorer dans le traffic a soir. Combien Cole en a scorer dans le traffic cette saison? Aussi il doit lancer plus, le tir de Texier est le parfait example.

You know him, you love him, your Habs playoff warrior: Brendan Gallagher

@HabsLaughs The last 10 min was a clinic.

The best hockey I have seen the Habs play all year. Sound. Responsible. Calm. Went up against their best and held strong. Got the blocks. Made the plays. Dobes amazing. Team win. A chance to advance chez nous. Unreal.
