I agree but he's still 2-4 years from being a NHL regular as well. 21 is young for a goalie in the NHL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I was way off with thinking he could tandem. You can see a good player there but his fundamentals need a bit more work. He is not ready for a while Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir_Boagalott Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 I missed the 1st 3 mins and it was 1-0 Habs and I only saw 1 min of the 1st when my computer froze again. I got the game back on and there 4 mins left in the 2nd and they were down 3-2. Silly question, but is Primeau's rebound control really that bad, or is he actually doing that on purpose? I'm wondering if he's trying to do the JS Giguere thing where he would kick the rebounds to his teammates? Only with Primeau the speed at the NHL level is much faster than what he is used to so its not as obvious as to what he's trying to do. He doesnt have that level of control when trying to do that, yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir_Boagalott Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 In the other games I believe I saw him attempt to do that numerous times but poorly so its hard to say for sure. However, they showed 1 clip from this game where 2 Habs were directly in front of him and he kicked the puck 6-8 feet straight out in front of the net and it went right to 1 of them. That time it was obvious as to what he was doing because he pulled it off perfectly. However, is that he's usually trying to do? I'd have to think yes, because he's rebound control almost seems so bad that he shouldnt even be in AHL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also it really looks like Caulfield will be a 30 goal scorer, maybe 35-40. Unfortunately KK looks a little lost out there right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
