Yeah I usually get one package or another and it makes the season so much more fun. Please let there be instant connection between Slafkovsky and Newhook tonight.

Prime Minister Koivu Posted October 29 Share Posted October 29 I like putting Struble with Matheson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomh009 Posted October 29 Share Posted October 29 Will it be Kapanen-Dvorak-Heineman on the fourth line? I don't expect that they'll break up the 7-11 line at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TurdBurglar Posted October 29 Author Share Posted October 29 I like the idea of Slaf on the 2nd line. Dach is clearly playing better with Caufield and Suzuki, the line as a whole is. I also like the idea of Slaf being the primary shooter on the 2nd line. If he could pot a couple and get his shooting confidence up, it would only be good for his development. Once Laine returns we should have 2 good lines barring further injuries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slafkovsky is Gallagher++ and much more yet, so there is some hope that this line could work. I don't think Kapanen was terrible, but he's not ready to be a 2C at this point in his career, at least. And not good enough to improve the play of this line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of Dach's biggest problems on the 2nd line is they all have a pass first mentality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He spent most of his time with Newhook, Gallagher, Roy, Dvorak and Evans last season. None of those were particularly good at finishing to get assists off of.

This season he is 4th amongst Habs forwards in assists, assists (5-on-5) and assists/60(5-on5) <all slightly different stats>... for whatever that is worth on a small sample size Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like 3 goals for Gallagher is a small sample size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
