  1. Keep thinking, if Hughes hadnt traded for Barron, would he still be on the team? Maybe has improved, i dont see it.

    Dvorak 8 of 11 on face offs, he will always be good there it seems; Kapanen needs to improve on that and just coming back older stronger next year should help. 

     

  2. Pretty young d.

    Yes, he is such a smooth skater, has a dynamic element to his game.  Whenever I see highlights of Hage I find it hard to believe there were 20 guys taken before him.  

    Maybe is simply the uniform, but just reminded me of a young Pacioretty with his skating, but a better playmaker.

    He seems smart & shifty and blew through Minni end to end several times.

     

    Hage plays again today.

     

    Demidov already played today, no game stats yet.

    I agree, some guys just aren't crazy about spending time in the weight room and he might be one of those. 

     

    Guhle specifically talked about his weight; got heavier, but felt worse so dropped weight or something like that, so staying at lighter weight is on purpose, is what i got from it.

     

    Struble, if he can defend better than Xhekaj, he has OK puck and skating skills also and should slot in, but likely will rotate with Xhekaj anyways and always will be injuries.

     

    Armia does seem a good 2nd line option, if he can pick up where he left off last season, might be good fit.

    Hage looked really good tonight. 

     

    Here is his game shifts, he is #19;

    From the look of it he is #1 PP man?, carrying puck up and being fed puck once in offensive zone. So he likely will get lots of offensive opportunities this year.

  7. Item not real interest to me, but Brian wrote it, so worthwhile.

    Montreal Can’t Copy the Route Vegas Took with Robin Lehner On Carey Price Next Year – HabsWorld.net

     

     

    "This is not a situation where Vegas and Lehner worked out a wink-wink-nudge-nudge deal with Lehner to say don’t report, we’ll threaten to terminate your contract, and then we’ll work out a ‘best of both worlds’ scenario where both sides get what they want."

    I hope we get a break on this one and Laine plays in December 

    I wouldnt expect a whole lot from him, when he does return after numerous injuries within the last year and no play.
