I totally agree - I can't beleive I stayed up to watch that garbage. Our defense looked slow all night - I think Souray was our best D. Dandenault looked like crap.

Perez had some step in his game the first period and then his ice time dropped off the rest of the game. I don't understand - do not play ribiero or dags anymore!!!

what i fail to understand is how you can admit that ribs was not the only one to blame for the loss yet he's the one trying to make plays out there. Sorry to burst your bubble but Ribs atleast LOOKED like he was trying unlike a certain Zednik who completely let his man go which lead to the tieing goal...

get over it people, Ribs is NOT the only problem we have right now and trading him away will not solve anything.

He is getting pushed off the puck like a 13year old kid. He doesn't shoot and takes way too long of shifts. Rivet played his worst game in a Hab uniform tonight. We need Koivu and Kovalev back but more importantly it's time to trade for some toughness and grit. Julien rewarded Murray with one shift after his goal........brutal coaching. We are way too soft and need to start crashing the net and shooting pucks from anywhere. Also how about taking a few point shots on the PP with some traffic in front. This game was hard to watch. Find some pine Riberio!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Give me a break> Murray scores a soft goal and that means he should play a regular shift? No. I do agree that we are too soft. Edmonton had a big and physical team and basically had theior way with us.

That wasn't a soft goal....see Theo's season for a multitude of soft goals. He is our so-called marquee player and has been nothing near that 6 million dollar salary. He needs to be our best player night in night out and has been for maybe 3 or 4 games in this season. Riberio and Zednick should be shipped out in a package deal anytime. Zednick doesn't compete like he used to and is awful defensively. Riberio doesn't shoot and has what 1 goal in the last 21 games. He gets pushed off the puck every shift. Dagenais can't skate...period. Ryder continues to score and shoot lots.........he has been one our best players this season. Back to Murray, he has a goal , an assist, a thundering hit vs Anahiem in about 10 shifts as an HAB.....I say play him...at least he'll compete and not shy away from the front of the net or the corners unlike many our softies on forward. PS.....Bulis can also be sent out to pasture anytime too...what does old cement hands contribute to this team........notta!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I do not disagree with all of yoru comments. My question is who are you going to replace these guys with? I said last week I would sit at least 6 players and I stand by that. Zednick would be first on the list. He has been useless and non existent. Almost like a little boy who had his toys taken away (Koivu and Kovalev) and is not going to bother trying anymore. In the preseason the reasons given for predicting the habs at 21st is that they were a one line team. That is very obvious now.
