#GoHabsGo need to learn there is a skill in drawing penalties.

Part of it is keep your feet moving when u feel your being grabbed or hooked. Make the player haul u down. It’s obvious & the #ref at that point has no choice.

But if u don’t move ur feet, he just check u into the boards & no call.

Great summary by #MSL.

#GoHabsGo
Habs coach Marty St. Louis tonight on the OT loss:

“It was 3-0, the other team didn’t have any life at that point, then we start making stupid mistakes and we gave them life. That’s the story of the game.”
December 14, 2025 at 4:47 PM
School time:

GDP = C + I + G + nX

C - consumption - think final goods u buy

I - investment - new plants, equipment

G - gov’t spending

nX - net exports (exports - imports)

Now imagine how you get a 25% increase in ANY of these numbers.

#Trump either dumb, or relies on his audience being dumb.
“Instead of 3% or 4% GDP, it should be able to 20% or 25%. I don’t know why it can’t be.”

Anyone with even a modicum of knowledge about economics knows but the Stable Genius clearly does not.

Day 67 of the #NHL season

& the #GoHabsGo are NOT in a playoff spot! ☹️😢😩😭

Just 1 point out. A disappointing OT loss last night, given they had a 3-0 & 4-2 lead.

Need to regroup quickly bc the #LetsGoOilers will eat those D mistakes for breakfast 🍳! & #Habs need the W.

I can’t remember the last time we had snow ❄️ in New Jersey BEFORE Christmas 🎄.
December 14, 2025 at 2:27 PM
Making mistakes like tnite will be absolutely deadly v #LetsGoOilers.

They don’t even need freebies.

& please tell me we don’t get #Rank or I’m gonna scream!

#GoHabsGo
Young team blows two multiple goal leads on the road. Won’t sting as much if they win tomorrow but they’ll have to play a lot better. Oilers have scored 29 goals in their last 5 games.

By the standards of the penalty calls v #GoHabsGo, #NYR should’ve had 5 or 6 penalties EASY.

They had ONE!

Hard to win when your opponent is allowed to get away with EVERYTHING!
December 14, 2025 at 3:11 AM
Predictable.

#Refs gifted them the W.

I don’t have a problem calling that slash. But they let SO MUCH go before that.

The #Habs had 1 PP.

ONE!

& 4v3 is so difficult to defend.

#GoHabsGo 4-5 #NYR

Final. OT.
December 14, 2025 at 3:04 AM
So NOW they call a penalty after all they let go.

Yes, it is a penalty. Slash right on the hands.

But c’mon …

#GoHabsGo to the PK

& it’s #Evans. Prob our best PK man.
December 14, 2025 at 2:59 AM
End of 3rd.

At least the #Habs are able to secure a point. But they really need to get that 2nd point to not feel disappointed by this.

#Habs really haven’t had any offense since the early 2nd.

But now it opens up.

To OT.

#GoHabsGo 4-4 #NYR

#Matheson gets his stick pulled away from him & he decides to soccer it out of the zone …

… for icing.

#GoHabsGo
December 14, 2025 at 2:51 AM
That’s more like it #Suzuki. Take the shot.

#GoHabsGo
December 14, 2025 at 2:48 AM
Only 4 shots this period & one that was somewhat dangerous.

I’m sorry #Suzuki. When u walk in like that w a breakaway pass, TAKE THE SHOT!

Passing up an obvious chance for NOTHING!

#GoHabsGo
December 14, 2025 at 2:46 AM
The #NYR are absolutely mauling the #GoHabsGo players.

Interference, holding, tripping.

Ofc nothing called.
December 14, 2025 at 2:40 AM
That’s like the best chance since the 4th goal.

#Kapanen streaking in w speed, but not a lot of options - glove save.

#GoHabsGo
December 14, 2025 at 2:36 AM
#GoHabsGo playing like dogsh*t now.

1 shot in 8 mins. 12 all game.

You would’ve thought the disallowed goal would spark them.
December 14, 2025 at 2:29 AM
Once again, a paint scramble & the #Habs can’t come up with the puck.

But it looks like it was kicked in, thank God.

Confirmed. No goal.

#GoHabsGo 4-4 #NYR
December 14, 2025 at 2:26 AM
#Texier just about had a gift there, as the goalie misplayed it.

#GoHabsGo
December 14, 2025 at 2:21 AM
End of 2nd.

No matter how many times they score goals on simple plays, #Habs seem to refuse to defer to a simple play to try & generate a goal.

Only 4 SOG that period. & 11 overall. I don’t think they had a shot the last 10 mins.

When u score 4 goals, u should W. Period.

#GoHabsGo 4-4 #NYR
December 14, 2025 at 2:01 AM
#GoHabsGo completely backing in.

What a horrible period.

Shot off the post.
December 14, 2025 at 1:44 AM
So, when it’s #Gally taken to the ice in front & the other player sitting on top of him, that’s ok.

#GoHabsGo
December 14, 2025 at 1:42 AM
Habs just cannot … CANNOT … play with a lead.

How TF do you leave someone THAT open in front?!?

#GoHabsGo 4-4 #NYR
December 14, 2025 at 1:38 AM
Can’t get the puck out of the zone. This time, it’s #Hutson. He tries to out-skate, but is caught. Leads to a point shot miss, but the puck is bumped out front & deflects in.

#GoHabsGo 4-3 #NYR
December 14, 2025 at 1:36 AM
I guess you’re just allowed to strong arm opponents to the ice.

#Caufield just thrown to the ice.

#GoHabsGo
December 14, 2025 at 1:31 AM
#Anderson 🚨!

#Hutson having himself a night. Gains the zone, walks the line & finds #Anderson right in the slot.

#GoHabsGo 4-2 #NYR
