I just want everyone removed who thought a dcore without any puck movers... was something you can do. If that was Berg, Julien, assistants w/e want anyone who thought that out. They blatently showed they are out of touch with the modern game.

Get a pick Neimi/Montoya are a wash w/e.

Im personally just shocked hudon hadnt scored more. Regularly impressed by his play. Same with Lehkonen... but my eyes could be bad as I regularly think Small Paul is the best hab on the ice :))

Markov leaving and giving us an elite center won't save this dcore

Not sure how anyone can say habs fans are overreacting. we have no transition dmen at all. Probably the slowest and worst Puck Handling score of any potential playoff team. In what world is this a situation we can win with? We have a limited window before our prospect puddle means we have to full rebuild.

I am on the fire Bergevin train after this one. Team had a massive weakness in transition (major reason why our offense was dogshit) now we have absolutely no defenseman who can fill that role for more than 15 minutes a night? Guys who either cant stay healthy or in the lineup? Great. Is Schlemko going to be leading our breakout? Streit? Good lord help us if they for check we are done :)) Hears hoping Davidson turns into a God.

Because team Canada knew the trade was coming and wanted to add fuel to the fire. Obviously.

Louis LeBlanc Jared Tinordi Jacob Dela Rose Zach Fucale Those would be the bigger names off the top of my head. Guys who went to shit with lef

Glad we don't have to see Johnston again. He was horrible even at the AHL games I watched.

Not only first round picks. 1st and 2nds post McD/Patches/Subban draft Danny Kristo Bust Traded Louis LeBlanc Bust Traded Jared Tinordi Bust Traded Nathan Beaulieu Traded for 3rd Sebastien Collberg probably Bust but Traded in Vanek deal to nyi Dalton Thrower Bust in echl Jacob Dela Rose max a 4th line grinder Zach Fucale played most of last season in echl Sergachev Traded Still hope for Michael McCarron probably a 3c but could be a 2c if Jesus helps Mikhail Sherbak kid does look sick Noah Juulsen people like On Montreal Galchenyuk for now Arrthuri Lehkonen looks good as a 2nd liner Since Lefebvre took over the AHL team (with Beaulieu gone) we have NO players who have made the transition. Our only two prospects since the 08 draft both skipped/ignored AHL.

Whoever trades for Beaulieu has to protect him over another guy who they might lose to Vegas... his value is going to be hit in that situation. (Plus n8 is most likely going to be a bottom pairing guy and hockey people know it)

Wish we gave Davidson more of a shot... only one year older than beaulieu

Drouin could be complete dynamite and it won't do shit for our cup chances. We have a God awful d core. We're still relying on a now even older Markov, a Beaulieu who has not displayed offensive creativity and continues to give the weakest giveaways I've seen on our lineup. Weber still will be strong but he has no partner. Hoping go God Petry can find it in himself to become a credible 2. The lack of breakout passes hurt my eyes... maybe drouin can carry it out? Oh and we are banking on danault being great again... otherwise we don't have a two way center to help them. Positives: Gallagher should be better, love Lehkonen, if we keep Radulove... him and Drouin will make hockey exciting to watch. We also have the best goalie in the world... if they take away the trapezoid he can be our breakout pass (We better be getting a wicked two way center or ,preferable a Dman who can move andnpass)

RiP the memory of Hasek </3

Got to head down to the Mile One for the first game of the head to header! Charlie Lingren was insane. Made some absolutely ridiculous saves, really quick laterally in the net and made some beautiful glove saves. Really showed that extra effort to make the saves. Scherbak looks like the real deal. He is such a smooth skater and a wicked puck handler. Made some nasty moves out there. Defensively he made the wrong read a few times but his head is always on a swivel. He knew were everyone was on both sides of the ice, defensively he just made the wrong decision. In my mind that is coachable. Also they need to get him playing with talented wingers. He had some beautiful setups that went to not because his linemates can't shoot. He made a few beautiful centering passes as well but for somereason no one was there... needs some more talented linemates bad. Hudon has a hell of a shot on him. Saw him going into corners a bit and carry the puck with some success. He isn't blazing fast or anything but doesn't particularly look slow either. A few quick passes as well. Overall looked pretty solid. De la Rose got first star... his line would have had ridiculous possession numbers. They were brilliant on the forecheck. side note: Friberg is a workhorse man! He never gave up on anything, generally a ton of fun to watch. For defenseman two people stood out in particular Lernout was by far the best d-man out there for the Icecaps. Played sound defensively, physical, good outlet passes and has a beast of a shot. Really liked what I saw there. Johnston on the other had was so god damn awful it was hard to watch. Possession black hole for sure... he was knocked off the puck so many times. If I was Lingren I'd want his skin.. the quality scoring chances that came off Johnston existing were brutal. He should have had the primary assist on one of Hersey's goals for sure... If Lingren wasn't playing out of his mind after the first Johnston would easily have been a -3 or -4. I guess I should mention that Didier was fun to watch. Really physical and gritty guy.
