tomh009 Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 The Habs are getting a little bit closer to an NHL-level lineup, with maybe half a dozen forwards and 3-5 defencemen likely to stay with the club. Let's see if they can play any better and actually pull out a pre-season win tonight. Primeau in goal again, I think they really want to see what he can do. And Poulin, who has gone more than seven years since his last NHL start! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alfredoh2009 Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 Leskinen with a nice rush. He seems much better the a few years back when he played a few games with the Habs Guhle is such a treat to watch. I am very impressed by him and look forward to seeing him develop into a top pairing LD in the league Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sens want to dump his salary. if we can dump Armia as you suggested, then yes, I would do that, just to have one year less of the contract. But I don't expect anything at all out of Zaitsev other than to be a placeholder. I'd also do the trade cause we have a surplus of wingers and not enough RD so its good to move those place holders around to where we need them. That said Zaitsev is nothing more than a place holder while kids develop. If its not a salary dump for us too, then I don't want Zaitsev.

dlbalr Posted October 1, 2022 Author Share Posted October 1, 2022 I have to say, each time I see Beck, I come away thinking that he looks like an NHL player already. There's a logjam but it feels like he's going to make it hard to send him down. I also like what I've seen from Mesar so far tonight.

That said, I would reward him with his ELC and send him back to Mississauga. Let him be a number 1 centre in the OHL and develop his offensive game a bit more. Its a league where he can take chances that he wouldn't be allowed to in the NHL. Mesar is a bit different cause he can go to the AHL where Beck can't, but I'd still send him to Kitchener under the same theory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want Beck to go back but he's going to drag this out close to the end of camp which is quite impressive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not know anything of Zaitsiev besides the stats So, I want to watch him play to learn more about him If he is a “David Savard” then the trade makes sense. If he is worse than Alzner then obviously no Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he is worse than Alzner then obviously no He's better than Alzner but not as good as Savard, and I don't think Savard is that good. Again, the only way I take him is if the Sens are taking Armia or Hoffman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a big if unless a few players get hurt over the last few games (and with three in a row against Ottawa starting on Tuesday, that could happen as tempers flare).

Primeau was decent, as you said, but I thought he wasn't tested that severely -- which is admittedly pretty much what happens in pre-season.

hockeyrealist Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 Primeau not so primo as we’d hoped, at best a backup NHL’er behind a 60 start stud. Nothing else worth noting, Evans will score again in December. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
