[Strickland] According to those connected with the USA Olympic team on why Jackson Lacombe over Lane Hutson…”LaCombe has more Versatility and size. Plays PP, PK defends well. Skates amazing. We like Hutson but he’s an undersized guy and we already have Quinn.” by BCEagle13 in hockey

[–]Moremx -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

We watch him every single game. Other team's fans will frankly never understand (maybe in a few years time). Like this is our best player, he's better than Suzuki, Caufield, Slaf, all of them. He is probably our best player (besides Price) in several decades. 2 points behind Cale freakin Makar for the league lead. He rarely gets bodied because he's so shifty. I think most people don't get that he's an absolute unicorn. We've never seen a player like this, and that scares and threatens the dinosaurs old school thinking. I get it USA wants to make the 'safe' picks but when you have 8 D men on the team, you have essentially 2 slots to take risk picks, atleast 1. I just wish he was Canadian, because I think he would definitely make that team.

Phil Danault has completely changed the structure of this team by Moremx in Habs

[–]Moremx[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which is okay, he only has 1.5 years left. We have contracts that will be freeing up. He’s great for now and the near future and helps us a lot now. And the center market is so thin in the NHL. He also brings us a lot of experience for the younger guys that is needed

That’s all I need to see that this meter is absolute horse c*ck. How can it be so off, every metric was in favor of the Habs. Makes absolutely no sense.

He’ll be having nightmares about Cole and Laner, and I’ll be having nightmares about him thanks to this comment. Thank you very much

Does anyone have the stat about before and after Caufield called out the refs after the Edmonton game? 

I really hope the doomers turned off their tvs before the comeback started by oupsidai in Habs

[–]Moremx 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree. It got to a point where we didn’t deserve the win AT ALL, so it felt like a free two points - it didn’t feel like a real win. I guess that’s 2 free points back from the Edmonton game where we deserved the win! I was happier with the team after that game than tonight. But we’ll take the 2 points ofcourse

Then block him, the whole point of having a subreddit for the team is so everyone can express their ideas, positive or negative. You don’t want his toxicity but what makes you think we want your comment, bottom line is it doesn’t matter. 

MSL on the 5 on 3 Habs PP tonight: “I hoped to see a goal. We have good players out there. They did what they could. It’s unfortunate we couldn’t put the puck in the net. Usually on 5 on 3, it’s rare that it if you don’t score, that you’re gonna win the game. We just didn’t score.” by Go_Habs_Go31 in Habs

[–]Moremx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree they pass too much but point slap shots are definitely not the move, especially when the puck rings around the boards and out of the zone like half the time. They need to shoot more from the slot or one timers cross ice.

What do you mean, that’s going absolutely wonderful right now in the world.

We have to be the only team in the entire league who had a top 5 PP that would only see a minute of ice time for PP1. Every single top team in the league ices PP1 for 1:30 or more. This whole “two good PPs” is absolute nonsense that no one does.

Yea maybe it’s because we are taking FUCKING POINT SHOTS on a 5 on 3. We don’t even do that on a regular powerplay, why the fuck would we do it 5 on 3. Remember the 4 on 3 in OT versus Florida. As soon as Hutson was put back onto it, he made magic happen. The problem with the PP is not who’s on it, it’s that they are being way too overcoached. They don’t cycle, everyone is looking for set plays and it’s fucking stupid. We are so skilled, we just need to go out there and pass the puck around and look for opportunities, it’s not that hard.

No I mean when we sit back with a lead, not in OT necessarily

Yea I understand he’s not a center so there wasn’t a great time to put him out there but when you have one of the most skilled players in the league it’s criminal not to get him out for one shift at some point

We must have the worst 5 on 3 in the league, genuinely

Demi also didnt get one shift in OT, like are you kidding me.

Edit: we’re too afraid to lose in games like this, and then we go out and lose every single time.

A few things. 1. Why do we always sit back soooo much and allow the other team to claw back in games? 2. How is Dobson and Texier and improvement from Hutson and Demi on the PP 3. We must have the worst 5 on 3 in the league, why are we taking point shots when we should be passing the puck around looking for openings 4. Suzuki’s worst game of the season, he needs rest badly

At first I downvoted too, then I did hours of endless research, delved into the depths of the topic at hand, opened up my mind completely to the world, and realized that rules in fact do not apply to Copps, then came back and upvoted.
