7 losses in last 8 games, it's tough to be a Habs fan right now. Good thing we accumulated wins early on as we are still totally in the mix.

I'll say this tough, even through this bad sequence, Habs are super fun to watch, we play some exciting hockey.

Injuries are obviously hurting us, but just about every team has injuries with these condensed schedule because of the Olympics.

I hope we stabilize things soon before we end up too far behind.

Caufield is scary every single time he has the puck in a shooting position. You just hold your breath hoping it hits your goalie.

Yeah the Habs look really good, very exciting to watch those games.

It appears that the condensed schedule is really messing with the "older teams" especially. Sometimes it looks like a few of them are just coasting along. Or maybe its load management / resting strategy? Seems like many clubs are happy to at least get the loser point more than ever.

That being said, it's still early in the season, and that Olympic break is really going to mess with everyone coming back. And really, the final half the season stretch is where it matters most. So I wouldn't put much stock on what's going on now unless you're digging a really huge hole.
