Last night's Habs vs Thrashers game

The game was so frustrating to watch last night. The Habs wasn't present at all in the beginning of the game. The Thrashers could do whatever they want in the Canadiens' zone. On top of that, Halak let in two very easy goals, which didn't help the team much. Could it be possible that the return of Carey Price in the lineup have affected his game play? It seems as if he plays better hockey when there isn't much pressure on him. On the third goal, you can't really blame Halak. Hammer fell on the ice with another Thrasher player and the puck just slide underneath him. If you look carefully at the replay, you can even see a little bit of interference from the Thrashers player. The player's skates hits Halak's pads and unable him to make the save. I kind of feel sorry for Halak that it had to end that way, because he played very well during Price's absence. After Carbo decided to change goaltender, we were able to capitalize on the Powerplay and score a quick goal. The second goal was a very lucky goal when Steve Begin redirected Patrice Brisebois' shot with his skates. Thank god that we scored those two goals in the second period and came back into the game. In the third period, we had many good scoring chances but just couldn't finish the job. Unfornately for us, Kari Lehtonen was on top of his game and made many crucial saves and kept his team's lead. I was very disappointed in the way the Habs played last night. I thought they would be very hungry on the puck and more aggressive after knowing that the Bruins have lost their games the other day. We have an excellent opportunity to reduce the gap between them and be only 7pts apart if we win these two games we have in hand. On a more positive note, I like the way Pacioretty played. He played a very physical and intensive game last night. In fact, he seems to be the only player on the ice for his line, we didn't see Kovalev or Pleckanec at all...they were almost invisible. He knows that Koivu and Higgins are very close to getting back in the lineup, and this shows that he really wants to stay. Good job kid! Keep up the good work and you'll be with team. The only good news for the Habs after this disappointing lost, is that we have another game tonight and they can get back to winning again and forget about this lost. So, let's hope for an excellent performance from the Canadiens. Good game everyone.
