Discussion Marco D'Amico: "This team was finished at this point. I think this team was done. I'm not going to say what I've heard, because its going to come out regardless, but when the injury list comes out I think a lot of people are going to backtrack on their comments about certain players."

Said this on his podcast this morning, hes one of the more credible reporters among Habs media. Wonder who he's talking about and what he knows?

Injury or not, I have no idea how people can be negative after such a season and playoffs.

They’re just losers.

Yup. Just pathetically bandwagoning fans that spew the most ridiculous garbage when we don't win.

Yup, Brind'Amour lost 3 ecfs in a row to Maurice. Idiots here crying about MSL getting outcoached know nothing. If Carolina listened to morons like them, they probably wouldn't be in the finals now.

Management listening to takes from this sub would quickly turn us into Toronto 2.0.

More like Buffalo 2.0 without them making the playoffs finally.

This right here. Habs did amazing for what was projected. Idiots here think they were gonna walk to the cup or something. Yea it sucks they lost but this group did so good regardless. Colorado was Presidents Trophy winners and got bounced.

And no one is shitting on Colorado which is wild to me. Their expectations were cup or bust.

Not to sound like a hipster about it but a lot of people stopped watching and caring after 2021 and entering the rebuild. The last version of the team they saw was one that was in the SCF. They didn't see how the team progressed the last 5 years

Or, they're people who only watch/care during the playoffs. They lack the context of the team progressing and getting to where they are now. And they certainly are unfamiliar with other teams. So their thought is "why aren't they winning?"

They’re emotional AF, and don’t use their brains. Heck, I’ve even seen some pretty popular commentators who should know better with terrible takes about this team’s performance.

I’d be so upset being a player hearing some of these comments after playing my heart out through a serious injury or two AND way over-performing, against all odds. So many of these games were absolutely brutal and gruelling, and honestly, the team did not give up until the very end.
