Yeah I agree about Guhle. Playing on his offside isn’t helping but I think Guhle needs to put on some muscle. He gets manhandled quite a bit. After reading the scouting on Reinbacker and his style, I wonder if Guhle (back on the left side) might be the perfect partner.

Montreal Canadiens Select Juraj Slafkovsky

I hope the kid kills it in Laval. Seems difficult to evaluate a player while they play for such a terrible team.

I was looking at MacKinnon’s stats yesterday and he is tops in offensive markers across the board but mediocre on defensive responsibilities. McDavid has better stats overall but MacKinnon has better offensive stats and that is quite the accomplishment

GDT Game 67 Habs at Calgary 7pm Sat March 16
Prime Minister Koivu replied to Prime Minister Koivu's topic in Habs & Hockey Talk
Agree with everything but I think it is too costly to buy out Gallagher and Anderson. There is a possibility that Anderson rebounds into his normal 20-25 goals with truculence on the side. Still, I’m sure your son and yourself had a good time. -

Habs played better than the score suggests. Suzuki line was dominant again. Habs had poor team defence at times in their own zone but Calgary was sloppy too. I think @hab29RETIRED is at this game. Sorry bud that the Habs lost while you were there. The last time I saw the Habs live they lost 4-0 to the Capitals. -

That Slafkovsky penalty for goaltender interference was ridiculous and of course Calgary scored -

The Habs PP was pretty terrible but the period overall was good. The Suzuki line is a legit #1 NHL line and I think Newhook did some good stuff too -

Wonder if the Habs go on a run to support Marty -

I have to admit that I’m a bit excited to finally see what this kid has got. Can he play two good games in a row? How about 7 or 8 good games in a row? Let’s find out -

IDK. Roy is really starting to put it together right now and I’d rather He stay and keep building on that. The Newhook, Roy, Armia line has been quite good lately. Barring a big trade, the line of Dach, Roy, Newhook next season is going put up numbers. I think Roy should stay and continue growing this season in preparation for an even better season next year. -
2024 NHL Entry Draft
Prime Minister Koivu replied to Habs Fan in Edmonton's topic in Habs & Hockey Talk
The east has some good teams and there will be some interesting matchups. Boston, Toronto would be savage. The West is brutally tough with a bunch of really great teams. Edmonton, Dallas, Jets, Vegas, Colorado, Vancouver…Any one of them could realistically win. -
Yeah I didn’t watch it either but Primeau must be over the moon. 40 something shot shutout, including a highlight reel save. Watching Slafkovsky’s PP goal has me thinking about how dangerous our PP is going to be. Caufield’s deadly shot on the right, Slafkovsky’s deadly one timer on the left side. Tough to cover both sides.

I don’t think Ylonen will be on the roster next season whatever the route. As it stands there is no room for him and I’m not even sure RHP has a roster spot either, well unless the Habs remain cursed with injuries. Habs are getting crowded with competition soon from upcoming players. It’s a great problem to have. -

Impressive stats for Matheson, Guhle, Slafkovsky, Caufield, Suzuki. Terrible stats for Harris, Struble, Xhekaj, Savard. -

46 points for Matheson this season so far is great too 🎉 -
I agree that the Habs should give Primeau about 40% of the games. Unless he just gets destroyed out there. HuGo needs to find out what Primeau has in him. Internal competition is close at hand so let’s see what Primeau can do with regular rotation

The one super positive thing was that the great Austin Mathews and his first line could not handle the Suzuki line. Suzuki line crushed the leafs super line. Habs have a legitimate first line that competes with the best players out there. Now all the Habs need are three more great lines…and I think Dach might help us in that pursuit -

That 6 on 4 was pretty sucky. Leafs third line gave the Habs a tough time and we had no answer. Fun, hard fought game anyway -

Savard isn’t having his best game either. Leafs are beating Savard, Xhekaj with speed and they just can’t keep up. Im expecting a feisty third -

Leafs had a hard time with the Suzuki line and it feels good to have a good first line again - it’s been a long time.
