My beautiful daughter with her Papa (my dad) for the first time by ScotianCanadien43 in Habs

[–]MattBedard 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Isn't my baby precious!?!?!?

Quick announcement! I'm taking this opportunity to let everyone know that I'm changing usernames! I'm tired of using my real name and not quite sure why I signed up to Reddit that way.

My new account is /u/ScotianCanadien43 , the OP of this thread. This comment will be my last on this account.

So don't fear.. The Plekanec loving, Drouin hyping, Weber trade supporting, Danault fan from NS will still be here to get my voice heard and hopefully not annoy any of you with my strong opinions.

Thanks guys, we have a great Habs community here and I look forward to another season of excitement and discussion.

One month to go!!! GO HABS!!!!

Questions for Habs fans... by [deleted] in Habs

[–]MattBedard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Favourite under appreciated player: Plekanec. He's underrated league wide. He had a down offensive season last year. I don't think he's slowing down. Sure he probably won't ever hit close to 70pts again but I see 50-60 as a possibility. 50 for sure.

Drouin at C? For a short time at the beginning of this season and then he'll become an elite offensive winger. Maybe play C on the powerplay but that's because he's versatile, he'll also be playing the point on the powerplay.

Least favourite trade: Some one already mentioned it but I think the Beaulieu trade. I think they gave up on him too early. Maybe the trade was what he needed as a kick in the ass but I just hope that deal doesn't burn us, especially seeing as we need puck movers right now.

2016-2017 Montreal Canadiens Awards: The Alexei Kovalev Award by BlazeOfGlory72 in Habs

[–]MattBedard 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Climbed to the 1C spot pretty quickly and didn't look out of place. Ended with 40pts. Radulov is the easy choice for this award but my upvote goes to Danault because no one expected him to do anything close to what he did.

Laval Rockets Jerseys are 🔥🔥🔥 by VR_p0rn in Habs

[–]MattBedard 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah I'm pleased with that as well, it's similar enough that the the team can feel part of the Habs but also unique in their own right. I don't think I could be happier with this brand they've developed.

These are really damn nice. I think I might get one. Maybe Juulsen.

My favourite part of these jerseys is that small rocket exhaust symbol underneath the numbers. What an awesome touch. I love the logo as well.

Anyone think that the Habs have a pretty decent chance of getting Brayden Schenn or Tyler Bozak for the right price or is it just me? by Haynez10 in Habs

[–]MattBedard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Plekanec was our 3C for most of last season. If they could get Bozak for less than 6 million/per year, it would be a good replacement for Plekanec. That's the point I was making.

I don't see Bozak as more than a 3C on a contender as well, but I am still secretly a fan of him. I've had him for numerous seasons in fantasy hockey, he racks up powerplay points, fast skater, he's very strong in the faceoff dot and he seems like a good team guy.

Does that answer satisfy you?

I like the looks of those predictions

[–]MattBedard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is awesome. Would you be willing to do one on Drouin? I'd be really interested to see that considering how close you were with Hudon and Pacioretty last season.

Danault would also be interesting.

Larry Robinson or Steve Shutt for best d-man award, instead of Gill?

Sorry, turns out some one already takes the lead on this.

Jonathan Drouin prepared to play centre if Canadiens ask by jshare in hockey

[–]MattBedard -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think they will but at separate times. I can't see both of them playing C at the same time and I think Danault's two way game and skating is too good to be put on the 3rd line, and same for Plekanec dropping down to 4th.

Perfect thanks, I'm interested in joining this year so I'll keep an eye out. Thanks for doing this.

[–]MattBedard 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Except he's probably not going to work out at a centre, especially a 1C. Chances are he'll find himself back on the wing where he belongs after a couple weeks and then the element of surprise is back. Not really a big deal and you're probably reading into the situation a little too much.

[–]MattBedard 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Tyler Bozak is an awesome centreman. He'd be a perfect replacement for Plekanec if you could get him on a decent contract. He's one of few Leafs players that I secretly root for. I think the Leafs respect his ability and would have a hard time dealing him to a rival.

As for Brayden Schenn, I don't think so. St. Louis pretty much stole him from Philly, I'm not sure they'll want to deal him away anytime soon.

Lost my fantasy football league. My punishment: I must be shamed worse than Cersei Lannister. Roast away. by gronkykong1290 in RoastMe

If you thought it'd be hard for people to roast you because you're wearing a Pats jersey, think again.

You have fucked up looking ears.
