Maybe is roll the marbles in October and see how the start to season goes before making any centre upgrade? that is what I expect. Maybe there is a salary cap crunch for other teams at the end of camp and the Habs can make a hockey deal for a veteran middle-6 centre Edited August 23, 2021 by alfredoh2009 added "at end of camp" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit concerned seeing Suzuki getting run over several times last year. Sure he bounced right up each time, but he best learn to keep head up bit better than he did last year.

The development of KK would help a lot in that regard. I think we have a pretty good idea of what Suzuki will do, likely 20-25 goals and 65-70 points in a full season. It's KK that's a mystery. His development is so important to the Habs next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beyond that, the big elephant is the room is which Carey Price we will see this season when he returns from surgery. Which Price we see is still unknown ... but sounds good on the health front.

The Chicoutimi Cucumber Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Also this team will likely be in a dogfight to make the playoffs. Better to have Price under those conditions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TurdBurglar Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 So I don’t know if much can be read into it, Eric Engels tweeted Eichel was on a plane to Montreal with his hockey sticks, turns out it’s for the biosteel camp in Montreal. Yesterday Eichel tweeted, “See you soon @CanadiensMTL.” Is the camp hosted by the Canadiens, which would explain the tweet, or is there something else at play?

My mistake, it was a fake account. This is why I hate Twitter.

GHT120 Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 Evander Kane defending himself in an ESPN interview ... he frankly admits he has had a gambling problem, but denies betting on hockey or throwing games ... the latter allegation always sounded "off" to me as a forward can't really do a lot to throw a game.

DON Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 I see (the athletic team ranking tool) Habs were 1st in hits last year, I guess that is a good way to be. but also, 26th in shot% 27th in save% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
