He was pinched by a Montreal player and toe dragged the puck outside the trapezoid before he released it. The Sportsnet feed replayed it and you could clearly see his stick and the puck was well inside the corner area before he released it. It happens, was just pointing out he got away with it.

Don't recall the play ... did it start inside the trapezoid ... perhaps that is why it was allowed ... the rule came in to stop Brodeur and others from roaming almost to the corner to play "dump-ins" and defeat the forecheck.

The Chicoutimi Cucumber Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 A very satisfying win. It’s nice to see Slaf, Newhook and of course Caufield doing good things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It did, but goalies can't handle the puck outside the trapezoid below the goal line. Once the puck is outside of that area goalies can't touch it.

I mean, maybe we could move him to EDM if we took Campbell’s contract back - but short of a buyout I don’t see a pain-free solution, unless he starts playing better.

Just playing with this notion - because why not? - we could send them Monty and Anderson in return for Campbell, their best prospect, and maybe a pick. Something like that.

Or they scouting Laine somehow? What if they were scouting Merzlikins? His contract and Campbell's are pretty similar and I wouldn't be shocked if Columbus opts to give Merzlikins a change of scenery in a swap of bad contracts. (Not one-for-one, but those two being part of a bigger swap.)

Neech Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 Matheson racks up the points but he isn't much of a veteran stabilizer for this group, he's more the type of defender who needs a stabilizer as a partner. I wouldn't mind dealing him if we can get a blue chip prospect coming back. Anderson would have had high trade value at last year's deadline or over the summer. I still think he'll recover it and net a decent return if and when we do deal him. Hopefully this is sooner rather than later, because he could turn into a pumpkin once he loses a step.

Neech Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 Struble has stepped in and not looked out place at all. Another young D-man who is projecting as an NHLer. Is there a team out there overflowing with forward prospects as much as we are with D prospects? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tonight's postgame: https://www.habsworld.net/2023/11/10-thoughts-ending-the-road-trip-on-a-winning-note/ I was actually thinking about this during the game but hadn’t considered Campbell. Your proposal makes a lot of sense. Oilers could see if they get lucky with Merzlukins for free basically and if it busts then look at a bigger deal. 8 minutes ago, Neech said: Struble has stepped in and not looked out place at all.

Struble has been very solid and I was thinking that he is better than Xhekaj during the game. Small sample size for me though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Chicoutimi Cucumber Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 Way too soon to anoint Struble and NHLer let alone a successor to WiFi. I wouldn’t be in a hurry to move Matheson…any young FW we have are going to need D-men who can move and get them the puck. Guhle will perhaps become that distributor, but he’s not there yet.

I think Anderson would benefit with reduced minutes in a lesser role, like the 4th line. Let him rediscover his meanness, that speed and drive to win and compete.

Would there be a real risk of someone claiming him on waivers? I think he’d get picked up. Salary isn’t horrible, and is about market if he scores 20. I think he’s one guy who’s probably been hurt by Marty trying to make him a better player - he just doesn’t have the hockey IQ. He is what he is. Have to let him be the guy who can only play up and down, where he uses his speed and his shot, can’t pass worth shit , but let him just either shoot or hit guys along the board. down the wing hits guys on the boards, does his thing, but never really meshes with his linemates. Get him going and than trade his ass out of here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
