  1. Barron gonna get the Tinordi treatment? I've been a vocal hater of the lehkonen trade since day 1. Sure could use his tenacious forecheck and puck retrieval skills over jb on degense. He is terrible.
  2. Breakouts were a huge issue. Pass execution and lot puck battles were another. The 2nd two are hopefully just rust related. But lost puck battles was an issue most of last season.
  3. And he is pretty good in his own end too. He's evasive and good with the puck. Markov never had to win board battles really. He just stripped the puck off you, rolled out of the check and sauced a pass perfectly onto someone's stick. I was expecting the offensive dynamic, but he's OK in his own end too. Maybe needs to work on angling forwards when they are coming at him.
  4. We replaced markov. Hutson is freaking smart. Everytime he touches the puck, things happen.
  5. Haha. I was being sarcastic. He played well enough last year to deserve a solid shot.
  6. You aren't wrong. Pass execution and puck battles are pathetic. They don't deserve to win, but primeau is terrible today
  7. For sure. The team is playing poorly, but Holy Primeau is letting in some stinkers.
  8. Faceoffs could be 100% and boston would still control possession. You have to win puck battles. Habs losing em all.
  9. Primeau is looking shaky. Not the goals, but his movement.
  10. Exactly. His weight is not an issue for me. I want to see more of those smooth larry robinsonesque end to end rushes. If running lighter helps him do that, then perfect, because he doesn't seem to get overpowered in his own end at this weight. I just wish he didn't have to play with the gambler on his wrong side. He is fine over there. More than fine. But I saw glimpses of stud when he was on his natural side and feeling the game.
  11. Yep. Struble has earned the 6 spot at this point.
  12. Struble has looked better in preseason I think.
  13. Yep. Try to hurt them as a statement, but do it within the rules.
  14. The hit was not clean. It was dirty. It wasn't a headshot, but it was interference resulting in injury. It was a response to, and an identical play, minus the chicken wing which didn't make contact, to the greig hit. He did not hit his head. This was a better response than the Laine hit, but not quite where he needs to operate. He needs to hit players with the puck, clean and send the message that way. Hit them as hard as he can. Dont hold back. But clean. Still though. I'm not that upset at the hit. If the identical play on greig is a major, this hit probably doesn't happen.

  16. Nope. Xhekaj hit was initially a 5 minute major for illegal hit to the head. Refs reviewed it for several minutes and changed it to 5 and a game for interference. 100%
