They brought Alfie back in Sweden Now they are giving Jacques a senior advisory role it is a good thing for the Sens to reconnect with the past, those who made them successful. JM is from Easter Ontario, he has deep roots in the region.

Hal Gill mentored PK but ran his term withthe Habs. I dislike how he plays goalie in front on the net, especially when he is caught out of position which was happening a lot early this season. He has value to the team, I agree, I just don't like that type of player. With everyone healthy next year, I do not see where he fits on the team as it is projecting. And the fact that he has missed so many games makes wonder if he is really missed. -

But Savard, besides being old, doesn’t have any real qualities. He is like Hall Gill out there just flopping on the ice blocking shots. He gets injured blocking them -
Or an emergency replacement because someone is injured. I’ll post the quote when I find it

but of course 🤩 Beck is invited 🤩 (although on an emergency call up from what I read) Let’s say I am happy 😊

Let's hope, he has been hurt so often and for so long that he is not missed. -

IMHO He doesn’t have a lot of value outside Montreal. -

if you are correct, that makes Savard expendable. That makes me happy, but I don;t want to twist what you are saying. Lindstrom has stabilized Matheson, his skating ability allows him to mesh well, maybe better that Kovacevic is able to. Kovacevic is an ideal 3rd-pair D for the Habs. Barron is working great with Guhle, the pair I was hoping to see eventually when Barron first played with the Habs. -
As a collective, we have watched enough games to be able to form an opinion on goalies instead of copping out with the voodoo argument Right now, Primeau is as inconsistent as Montembeault was when he was picked by the Habs. Combative, showing good athleticism and most of the time using good technique. But he needs to play lots and continue developing. The 3-goalie rotation is not helping

we either trust the coach or we don’t. I still believe he is too green and that the media is to forgiving; but as a fan, I want to trust MSL knows enough to be right on his approach with Andy. -
100% agree

here a demotion I didn't see coming. Luc Gelinas mentions it is a regular demotion, not a fitness/recovery assignment or a cap-management/administrative move -

if we want Anderson to get going, Monahan on a more offesive role should help. Evans may be there to help win more face-offs and to take on the defensive tasks to free the two others. I like it. Gallagher will play his game regardless of the linemates. Ylonen has been doing well on the 4th line, I like him and I think he may become as good as Lehkonen if coaches continue to work on his development. He is fast, has a great shot, and has shown more combativeness this season; if I remember correctly, he said gained more muscle during his off-season training to be stronger on board basttles. -

I am not a fan of Savard, I do not like how he plays goalie and flops on the ice when caught off-position - which is often. He blocks a lot of shots, but he is not my type of defenseman. I prefer how Guhle plays, hard on puck and shoulder to shoulder: physical but disciplined. -

I am guessing Montembeault starts, I forget the rotation order. That should increase the Habs win probability. Go Habs, Go! -
Miller is trending to become a typical Habs goalie not named Price... Joking aside, I am optimistic and happy with the prospects in the system, it is good that they go through some struggles as they develop.

LOL 🤣 sad how it's funny The curse continues for the Habs. I mentioned a long time ago that I believe that the Habs are cursed since they moved to the Bell centre. They seem to get lots of these freakish catastrophic injuries to key players. -

If we believe this post, that 15 out of 20 goals allowed by Primeau this season were on his glove side, then it is easy to deduce that Allen is not being traded and that the coaching staff has lots of work to do
