2023/2024 season Playoff discussion
Prime Minister Koivu replied to Prime Minister Koivu's topic in Habs & Hockey Talk
He definitely made the initial hit on their Dmen when hunting pucks. Dubois just didn’t seem to compete beyond that. Like no drive to battle the boards or drive play. He seems lazy but maybe it’s just his style leaving that impression 🤷♂️ -
I think this trade comes down to what Mailloux turns into. If he becomes a first pairing stud then Habs lose, if he is a bottom pairing guy then Habs win. Presuming the Habs draft two high end forwards at pick 3 and 5. Definitely an interesting proposal
-
Nobody believes Caufield is even possibly being traded. It was a very interesting proposal In terms of value and would it be worth it.

Conspiracy theory but I’ve had a sneaking suspicion for a while that PLD will be in the player assistance program at some point. -

Kings and Edmonton has kind of been a bananas game. Chaotic hockey with spurts of great chances. Dubois looks like he isn’t competing very hard. Perhaps he is injured, perhaps his heart is in Montreal. -

Offsetting penalties would have been better but with 2 minutes to go in the game and both players were being shits, refs should have let it go. Leafs crying about it is nonsense too because Boston got screwed by the refs too. Fun game to watch -

Bruins gotta start Swayman going forward! That Tavares penalty at the end of the third was ridiculous. I’m still laughing about it. Leafs got screwed but they were losing anyway. Bruins, please win on Saturday -

I want Roy to win as well. The “incident” did break my heart and I was angry at all sides, including Roy. I let that go when his number was raised. I will never forget 1986 - Roy was beyond incredible and 1993 wasn’t far off. I’m a fan for life -
This is indeed an interesting offer. Ducks get their RD and top 6 forward Habs get a replacement for CC and a top player from this draft. Actually seems fair

Mailloux for?

I have no idea why I actually like the Canucks but it might be because they are the only Canadian team that hasn’t offended me. Leafs, Calgary, Edmonton, Winnipeg, Ottawa - I strongly dislike for one dumb reason or another but the Canucks are cool. -
I would do that deal because it’s worth the risk to me. I thought PLD played pretty well last night and I have more hope for a PLD rebound than an Anderson rebound. 7 more years on that contract sure would suck if PLD flatlined though.

Canucks were my Canadian hope. I genuinely hope the team coalesces and gets out of round 1. Perhaps Demko can return for round 2 Screw Winnipeg, screw Edmonton and screw the leafs twice. -

Sources tell @DailyFaceoff: #Canucks Thatcher Demko is out for Game 2. His status for the series is questionable. What a kick in the face for Vancouver -
2023-24 Montreal Canadiens Discussion Thread
Prime Minister Koivu replied to GHT120's topic in Habs & Hockey Talk
I agree there is hope, you just have more of that hope than I do. If the plan is to move Guhle back to the left side that would leave Reinbacker, Mailloux, Kovasevic, Barron. With Harris as a pivot. Barron has opportunities there -
2023-24 Montreal Canadiens Discussion Thread
Prime Minister Koivu replied to GHT120's topic in Habs & Hockey Talk
This makes perfect sense and I expect it will be how HuGo approach it. I know that I’m in the minority here but I think Kovacevic is far ahead of Barron. Kovasevic is pushing the boundaries of second pairing (he can’t handle it yet). Barron is pushing the boundaries of #7 Dman IMO -
2023-24 Montreal Canadiens Discussion Thread
Prime Minister Koivu replied to GHT120's topic in Habs & Hockey Talk
Im not sure that Barron has a NHL career, I think he is on the borderline. Having said that, I noticed an improvement in his Dzone play when he got called up in the late season. He made simple box out plays and was much better at covering his man. Maybe he has enough growth left to have a bottom pairing role. -

The play by play guy for the leafs game last night after Mathews scored, “well there it is! Goal number 70 for Austin Mathews” Thats not how it works you leaf homer I dislike the team but the media around the leafs is intolerable. -

Edmonton looks like they could sweep the series. LA looks shell shocked, like they are barely holding on. Can’t believe the Islanders blew a three goal lead. Not sure they have a chance -

Can’t argue, he made some great saves and he isn’t the reason bruins lost. Toronto was the better team unfortunately. -

2-2 😱 End of second. Ullmark makes me nervous. He has made some good saves but he is flopping and giving rebounds. -

I don’t like Ullmark in net. He was terrible last year against Florida. I get that Boston rotated goalies all season but this is the playoffs man. Swayman played great last game. -
He will be Bergevin’s first call as GM of the new Nordiques.
