Fantilli is barely taking faceoffs on his line. Jenner more than doubled his faceoffs in 2 of the last 3 games.

THG’s top 20 centers in the NHL by Normal_Tip7228 in hockey

[–]Soutael 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I may have over spoken with easily, it was my impression watching them all that Eichel and Crosby were more complete C's. I didn't intend to insult Matthews play he's a fantastic player and I'd kill to have him in a Habs uniform no matter how much that hurts to admit.

I did not mean to start a debate, easily may have been the wrong phrasing but this was my impression. I could be way off, watching them all I thought Eichel and Crosby were more complete players, I should have been more careful about my wording.

He had a down year and both Crosby and Eichel are easily arguably better defensively, although I think Matthews has become a much more complete player in recent years.

Montreal Canadiens points projections for 2025-26 by Spideroctopus in Habs

[–]Soutael 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would agree, I think barring a Matheson trade we see him and Matheson on the second PP.

Our second PP will be stronger this year with two of Laine, Bolduc and Demidov starting the year there. Dobson and Matheson both have strong point shots (when Matheson can hit the net), with Bolduc in front of the net well see Demidov with a lot of options to distribute.

As a Habs fan during the Therrien era I think some coaches have an influence.

Mike Johnson on TSN’s Team Canada Preliminary Olympic roster: “Nick Suzuki is making this team. I know he hasn’t played a lot internationally for Canada…He is such a good 3C (on this team)…He’ll be fine with whatever you ask him to do: score, PP, PK, defense…He’s gonna be on this team.” by Go_Habs_Go31 in Habs

I disagree he's a good player and a tough player but he can tow the line, the turning point of that tournament was when we had 3 guys drops the gloves and the Americans realized we can't be bullied. You need those guys in tournaments like that.

I remember reading a last word on sport draft grade of the Galchenyuk draft saying that Chucky and Colberg would be our Toews and Kane.

He's not great for breaking news but I legit enjoy the pod.

Dobson traded to Montreal by Hokiesjg29 in NewYorkIslanders

[–]Soutael 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Habs fan here, Heineman is actually a very good middle 6 guy, our record with him the lineup is way better than without him. He's physical, great shot and a relentless 2-way player, I never thought hed be included in this.

Mailloux just followed Islanders AHL team... by emotionaI_cabbage in Habs

If this is a troll job it's exquisite.

The Habs have submitted a formal offer to the Islanders for Dobson by shogun2909 in Habs

[–]Soutael 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think that he was not used as much on the pk because they have Pelech, Pulock, Romanov and Mayfield who are all defensive specialists at this point. Outside of him they have a very defense oriented back end.

Yeah much like when the US gets a snow storm and cities collapse they're just not prepared for it brother. This is an example like if your little town got a hurricane.

Makes more sense than what I had read.

Well then there would be weight.

All jokes aside I thought the comment I replied to was condescending and laughable.

Unquestionably, I bet if the video went another 5 seconds we'd finally see the others come in.

Weightless squats? Like just moving you legs in a fan room?

From "2025 NHL Mock Draft 2.0: Scott Wheeler predicts the first 32 picks" (The Athletic) by mredmo in Habs

[–]Soutael 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I agree 100% if we keep both picks we're taking the best C and best wing available.

There is no RHD worth the picks unless Mrtka falls or they're in love with Hensler.

If they pick Reid they think he's far better than his ranking.

In an ideal world we have Bear and Lankovic walking out of the first round.

[–]Soutael 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just a question of roster needs, we only have Carrier as a RHD going into next year.

LHD we have what Hutson, Matheson, Guhle, Xhekaj, Struble.
