dlbalr Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 The Habs, Maple Leafs, and Senators are participating in a rookie tournament from September 7th through the 9th. Instead of being in London like it usually is, it's taking place in Laval this time around. Montreal has only one newcomer that wasn't at the development camp in defenceman Aleksi Anttalainen (and if you follow HW on Twitter, you probably knew that already). Holdovers on invites from development camp are wingers Brandon Hagel, Alexander Katerinakis, and Joel Teasdale, plus goalies Stephen Dhillon and Samuel Harvey.

Wouldn't get too excited about Alaine, unless you follow Laval closely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commandant Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 I'm most interested to see Sklenica and Moravcik in this one. Others obviously will want to see Kotkaniemi but this tourney won't change my opinion on him. Havent seen enough of the two czechs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dlbalr Posted August 31, 2018 Author Share Posted August 31, 2018 Samuel Houde sustained a shoulder injury in practice with his QMJHL team. It's supposed to have him out for about 10 days or so which puts his participation in the tournament in question although he is expected to still attend camp.

alfredoh2009 Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 I am interested in seeing Brook, Fleury and Walford to see if there is hope one of these three could replace Petry. I am also interested in seeing Vejdemo, Evans and Bitten. I am hoping they will stand out positively against others their age. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dlbalr Posted September 7, 2018 Author Share Posted September 7, 2018 Tonight's roster (plus one extra on defence and up front): Puck drop is at 7:30 PM on RDS Info. I believe the channel is on free preview for Bell and Shaw subscribers so even non-subscribers may be able to watch this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commandant Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 You can see the difference in experience. Sens have almost 100 games of NHL experience in that lineup (and plenty of AHL experience).... Habs have 0 NHL games. Heck I'm not sure there are even any AHL games in this lineup.

I don't see any AHL games for Montreal's guys and it certainly shows. It has been a rough one for Kotkaniemi so far. He has been burned defensively a few times already. On the plus side, I like what I've seen from Sklenicka who is bigger than I thought he was (or a lot of Montreal's players are smaller than I thought...). Alain has had a couple of nice plays while Vejdemo is a better skater than I remember. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
