JoeLassister Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Chucky is half the player I thought he would be when i watched him in his rookie year. Pateryn has been very impressive physical stay at home D. Yes, Subbans 14th goal ties him with his his rookie season. You seriously thought that Chucky would put up 40 goals and 86 pts at 20-21 years old ?!?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Habs30/31 Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 You seriously thought that Chucky would put up 40 goals and 86 pts at 20-21 years old ?!?! More to the game that just than stats. The rink is 200 ft. in length. No I dont expect Chucky or anyone to get 40 goals points playing for Therrien. Heck under MT I dont even expect a powerplay. However I thought Chuckys all around game would be way better is all i meant. Points wise? With all the hype and the fact he made the Habs at 18 and deemed too good for AHL......point wise ? Yes i thought he would be more than a 20 goal winger in his 3rd season. Figured after 200 games he could alteast bump super star, scoring machine DD off the number one center man job?? My expectations were too high ... so I've been told. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's buried behind Pacioretty and that's not going to change until he plays center. I'm jumping on the Brian Wilde bandwagon. The four best centers need to play down the middle: Galchenyuk Plekanec Eller De La Rose The only problem is that your second line LW is ... ? Prust?

DON Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Do you think he will get more offense playing top 6 centre, instead of top 6 wing? Dudley noted Rose is more offensive on the wing than when playing centre. The added defensive responsibilities that comes with playing centre, I assume is main reason. Which Galchenyuk struggled with, as is simply not strong enough yet and sucks on faceoffs as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just have Eller, Galchenyuk, Plekanec, Gallagher, De La Rose and Desharnais taking turns against Malhotra 15 to 30 minutes per day. Rinse and repeat.

illWill Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 In the last calendar year, Habs are 4-0 vs Tampa in the playoffs, while Tampa is 5-0 vs Habs in the regular season. Which would we rather? Perhaps Tampa should be worried to play us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Tampa plays their back up(s) in the play offs like last year, I'm liking the habs chances too. Even the loafs beat them without Bishop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, actually the Habs went to the conference finals and then followed it up with a battle for first in the conference in the regular season. That's why they are contenders. Tampa hasn't won a playoff series since 2010-11, but I suppose they are contenders eh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
