Lol, Martin has checked out. Had to be remined by the assistant coach that there is only a minute and a bit left and they need to pull the goalie.

Edit: Markstom is insane.

Martin shouldn't go anywhere; the team in front of you is the one built by Gauthier. He decided that Hamrlik and Halpern weren't good enough to keep around, and resigned an injury prone and ageing defencemen. Cole I think deserves a bit of time and patience, but even then he's a huge risk .

It's silly to blame the coach for merely working with the pieces he's been given. And besides, who are the Habs going to bring in to replace him?

Why is this team playing so much worst than last year?

If you watched any habs game you would have an idea of what you're talkig about. We took 2 too many men penalties last game one on a 5 on 3 because lines change so much people don't know when to get on. He puts a 4th liner on our #1 PP instead of top 6 guys. He puts guys with FO %s of 30% on key faceoffs. Don't tell me none of this is his fault.

Just can't catch a break. They played a decent game. Markstom was fantastic. Curious to see if there will be any coaching changes, probably not.

Also Cole, played his best game and got a lotof ice time.

After the no nonsense Booth trade right before an opening face off I heard that Tallon charges it the locker room before games now and hands out ass whoopins and makes violent threats.

Its all about changing the culture in South Florida.

You are right, I haven't watched the game. But even then, it's less than 15 games into the season, and you're clamouring to have him fired. It's as if Halak's playoff run really did go to your heads.

I saw him against the Caps which was his first career start. He looked nervous at first but settled in nicely. He looks huge in net and I think will be a good goalie at some point.

He has the potential to steal this game. I'd be worried.

You guys would have wanted Theo in net.

Damn you were bang on with this call captain. Good scouting there.

Don't you see the problem here though? The GM keeps acquiring offensive minded players while the coach is running a defensive oriented system.

Both should get the heave-ho, along with all the assistant coaches and Gainey.

This was a decent game for the team, Markstrom was standing on his head, its a moral victory but we need more then that right now.

It's not just this game, its a culmination of his choices going back to last year, he's constantly making stupid decisions and trying to force players into a system that isn't effective anymore. It's worked because we've had great goal tending and a decent D corp that knew their place, but now that Price had a shaky start and we're done two big D its starting to crack.

The team Gauthier has built would be great for an up-tempo, aggressive forechecking offensive style game. But our coach has the exact opposite style. How can there be this much of a disconnect between the two?

Worst part about JM, is once we get a 1 goal lead, the team falls back and into a shell and gets pelted for 40 mins, he's too passive, and even if we come out of this slump and go on a 6 game winning streak and end up in the playoffs, I'll still want him replaced because he will never bring out the full potential of this team.

Mark my words: if Martin gets fired, IF, he will still be given until mid November to early December to ruin the season.

let him stay

dat #1 draft pick

Fuck that. There is nothing more pathetic in sports than intentionally tanking. Not to mention that there is literally no way to secure a #1 pick. A person who tanks a season for a chance that their lottery ball will be picked is a fucking moron.

Fire Martin and try to turn this shit around.

How many times do I need to say Muller? We gave Carbo the head coaching job with NO experience, for chrissakes! But this is backwards ass Montreal, where we can't hire a head coach that doesn't speak French, so I fully expect the next coach of the Habs will be Marc Crawford or Bob Hartley :/

I don't get the Habs failures so far this season at all. They should be so much better than this. You guys need your own version of Peter Laviolette. Also, Michael Leighton. He saves seasons. Honest.
