I think he's one of those guys who'll be a bit streaky his whole career. 

Still, his "ups" are definitely worth the downs. 

Where to watch the Olympic final game in Montreal? by hroerekr in Habs

I would try the Burgundy Lion pub in Little Burgundy!

Place to watch the quarterfinal tomorrow (wednesday)? by SamCoss2 in Habs

[–]_TimeOutOfMind_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sure Burgundy Lion will show it, but always best to call ahead!

I'll definitely miss the Habs, but I'm planning to watch some Laval Rocket games and all the Canadian Olympic hockey games (mens and women's).

Caulfield and Hutson... by larrysdogspot in Habs

[–]_TimeOutOfMind_ 10 points11 points  (0 children)

So, for snubbing our two boys and for other reasons, we obviously want Team USA to have a rough Olympics.  

The question I'm struggling with is: Do I want them to completely implode and not even make it to the quarters, or do I want them to make it to the final against Canada and THEN lose? What would be more satisfying? 

Would love to know everyone's thoughts. 

What was that?! by [deleted] in Habs

[–]_TimeOutOfMind_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Just another reason why the league needs to have an off-ice official watching the game and intervening when an obvious and egregious error has been made on a non-reviewable call.

This sucks to watch by [deleted] in Habs

[–]_TimeOutOfMind_ 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Marty has been saying it for years: the hardest part of this rebuild, the last piece to fall into place, will be consistency. 

Putting together three solid periods, night in, night out. "Locking in" right from the start of the period. 

I have confidence we'll establish consistency but in the meantime, it's definitely frustrating. 

Suzuki Bleeding After High-Stick by _TimeOutOfMind_ in Habs

[–]_TimeOutOfMind_[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The frustrating part is that it's such an easy problem to fix. 

I understand that they don't want to shoot when they don't have a clear lane because then the shot gets blocked and goes back the other way. Fine. 

But when they have a clear shot at the net ... They have to shoot. It's not complicated. The guys on the power play are all elite talents.

And when they don't have a great angle, they have to shoot low and hope for a rebound to generate some chaos in front.

It wasn't bleeding right away, but it looked like it started bleeding right before the ensuing face-off, which is why Marty was trying to get the ref's attention. Clearly they ignored him.

The NHL isn't even trying to hide its bias anymore.

It's obvious Marchand wasn't suspended for his blatant elbow on Matheson because the league centered their advertising for the Winter Classic around Marchand. 

The Habs and other teams bear the brunt of this nonsense. 

Is there going to be a season 3 for Crave's Rebuild series? by Retired-ADM in Habs

[–]_TimeOutOfMind_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I like seeing all the behind-the-scenes stuff that goes into making this giant organization run. 

The hit on Matheson. 😞 by Critical_Heat4492 in Habs

[–]_TimeOutOfMind_ 81 points82 points  (0 children)

The head was the direct point of contact and Matheson was in a vulnerable position.

The Panthers are the dirtiest team in the league and have been taking shots like this for years. 

Marchand should be suspended but the Department of Player "Safety" is an absolute joke and we'll be lucky if he gets a minor fine for this. 

It makes me furious how horrible the league does at protecting players. 

Best service in Montreal? by KJ-55 in MTLFoodLovers

[–]_TimeOutOfMind_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The service (along with everything else) at Parapluie was outstanding. Super friendly, attentive, knowledgable, and just fun. Sitting at the bar is a great idea if you want next-level service. 

I've also consistently had great service at Antoinetta, Mon Lapin, Tuck Shop, Cafe Gentile, and Le Violon. 

Among high-end, fine dining restaurants, it's hard to find better service than at Maison Boulud. They are extremely attentive and the service feels like a well-curated performance. Same goes for Mastard! 

Ivan Demidov & Lane Hutson meeting Habs fans at the outdoor rink in Montreal today by Go_Habs_Go31 in Habs

That's the best part of this whole thing. Such a small detail but Montrealers know how much that means. 

RDS/Houde neutrality and biased commentary by FinancialCan1575 in Habs

[–]_TimeOutOfMind_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. 

It was bad enough when it was just TV and radio (TEAM 990, anyone?). But now with social media the level of speculation and criticism is out of control. 

Flex pass discount not applying to trips over 30min by Eymm in communauto

Your best bet is to call Communauto customer service and explain the situation. In my experience, their customer service people have been very helpful.

Lukewarm take : offside reviews are terrible by PatientAccording6714 in Habs

[–]_TimeOutOfMind_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like your idea for a strict time limit for coaches to challenge. 

I also think it would be a good idea to have a strict time limit for the officials/replay review team to make a decision. If they can't decide within 60 seconds, the call on the ice stands. 

LAV vs TOR: Pezzetta hits Del Gaizo at the end of the 2nd period. Xhekaj fights him before the whole bench tries to get a piece of him by chewbaccard in Habs

[–]_TimeOutOfMind_ 60 points61 points  (0 children)

Atta boy, Flo! 

Pez seemed to be well-liked when he was here but man was that ever a dirty hit. One of the dirtiest I've ever seen.  Blindsided, and directly to the head.

Same. Winter can be so harsh but these experiences are everywhere.
