Commandant Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 16 hours ago, Prime Minister Koivu said: I was impressed with his skill and work ethic. Kidney was decent too What did you think of Trudeau? I was blown away with his hockey IQ Trudeau was solid and his passing from the back is very good.

But Pierre does think that Mesar has a chance to be a great right winger, he is not as impressed with their left wingers though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prime Minister Koivu Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 I really want Xhekaj to eventually make the Habs. The man is a savage and his game is decent - he needs some polish. He is a bigger, meaner, stronger Chairot. I think both Mesar and Slafkovsky should start in Laval. I think Mesar is good enough for AHL and both of them are too raw for NHL. Guhle is smooth - he is absolutely ready. Barron looks like he is trying to do everything by himself and just runs around accomplishing nothing. I’m not a fan. Lots of players had a good game and show lots of skill. I hope we can develop them further. Bring on training camp and preseason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not a fan. I think this is a lot of what you get in the rookie tournament, though. There is very little time for coaching, and everyone is trying to show off their individual skills. I wouldn't write anyone off based on these two or three games, but clearly some players shone more than others. All of these kids need professional-level coaching and practice time, though.

Re: Barron, this is why we need to add one more legit NHL defender IMHO: a #5-6 guy who can be slotted in at need. One injury at RD and we will be over-using Barron; but what if Barron is not ready yet? Then his confidence comes in for a beating and the team gets shellacked night after night. The kid needs a better safety net, I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are always good players available early season, usually due to cap mismanagement or a logjam of talent. It’s great to have first crack at waivers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I don’t expect a top line player but we lost Hainsey to waivers for example and a player of that calibre would really help. I hope it happens and perhaps we can find a decent forward too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see Bear and Coughlin making it to waivers ... ***if*** they don't make the 'Canes they will be dealt for something before they are waived. same for Walker the Vancouver guys are more likely the profile of who might be found on waivers, be it for cap or roster make-up reasons.

I looked at cap friendly rosters for teams with extra RDs and could only come up with those names as potential waiver targets. Do you have any suggestions?

I think it will be more 6/7/8 types on waivers ... I could perhaps see an AAV-for AAV trade of a surplus forward for a 4/5 short-term "fix" ... may have to be a leftie who can play on the right. Would kinda like to see Juulsen go on waivers ... it would be nice to see him get some games in a Habs sweater. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, Bear/Coghlan/Walker won't be waived. Poolman has major concussion issues and a bad contract. Juulsen will clear, Burroughs might make it there, probably him or Brady Keeper. An under the radar name to watch for is Winnipeg's Leon Gawanke. I could see someone claiming him in the coming weeks. I know there are teams watching Pittsburgh as well to see if one of their extra guys hits the wire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt Hugh-Gort feel the same way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
