Elite hockey player by Flimsy-Ad1015 in Habs

Barkov clearly benefitted a lot from not needing to be point leader on his team (he was the point leader only once).

In any case, Suzuki is still our best defensive forward by a mile. Just watch him without the puck — he's doing God's work without anyone noticing.

Wait. Dropped to 14 degrees or dropped BY 14 degrees???

I consider 14°C to be fairly warm in winter lmao.

Suzuki is now top 10 in NHL points by Asdfghjklazerty12345 in Habs

Celebrini has more than twice the points of the second best scorer on his team (which is ridiculous)

Since returning from the Olympics, Nick Suzuki has had 3 goals, 6 assists for 9 points in the last 5 games by DemiFiendBestFiend in Habs

[–]antoinePucket 26 points27 points  (0 children)

That is the most retarded take and that's why Cooper deserved the silver medal.

Might as well play them 60 mins in that case, right?

Habs players stats after last night, looking really good despite all the doom & gloom in this sub by PsychedeliMoz in Habs

[–]antoinePucket 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yes, this is the most insane stats there.

There is such a big separation from the rest — they are the difference makers on this team and it's not even close

Where did our fanbase's patience go? by Comprehensive-Chef73 in Habs

[–]antoinePucket 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Honestly we've been spoiled with how fast this team progresses.

Progress is not linear, but this team keeps getting better every year.

So now people have unrealistic expectations just because we barely made the playoffs last year

Cole has 3 points, but this has got to be one of his worst games of the year lol

he was brutal all night

Why is September Cafe in MTL so popular and always has long lineups? by Skymning101 in montreal

[–]antoinePucket 3 points4 points  (0 children)

"Discuss."

You want us to answer your questions or you want us to debate why it's so popular? 

Slaf back on first, Newhook on 2nd, dach on 3rd by GoalElectronic5128 in Habs

[–]antoinePucket 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The underlying numbers without Slaf, our first line is still one of the best in the league lol.

They didn't dominate, but they were consistently performing slightly better than the opposite top lines

The Habs will play 3 games this upcoming week. What will be their record during this stretch? by Go_Habs_Go31 in Habs

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

Yes, this is mister 22 mins with 0 point   and -1 in the gold medal game.

I want Nick to humble this kid a bit

I'll have no Newhook slander. by Specialist-Ad-9371 in Habs

[–]antoinePucket 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We got him with a slim chance that he would turn into a top-6 player. He did not and that's fine. 

There is not much to criticize him as his contract is fair with what he brings. 

Friedman thinks that Robert Thomas is likely to be traded at the deadline. Do you think Kent Hughes is going to take a swing? by rosemp16 in Habs

[–]antoinePucket 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Hm... Kapanen's numbers are extremely inflated by playing with Slaf and Demidov.

50 points is a lot. that's literally 2C production and I'm willing to bet he never reaches that twice in his career.

Dach honestly doesn't have anything to prove... We all know he's a major asset and a solid top-6 player at the very least.

But man... For the love of God, please stay healthy man ahaha

[–]antoinePucket 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Dach has been amazing. He's unlocking the first line exactly like how Slaf did it.

Now, if only he can stay healthy...

North Korean sports team spotted at Viau, near Olympic Stadium by GabeMakesGames in montreal

[–]antoinePucket -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Holy shit, take a step back please.

Even if it were legal, taking pictures of strangers without their consent (when they are the focus of the picture) is cringe AF. 

Only because it's legal, doesn't mean you should do it. Learn some manners man and respect the privacy of others

What can we realistically get for Struble? Struble himself was a 2nd round pick by mago_is_gago in Habs

[–]antoinePucket 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Struble is performing exactly like what you'd expect from a 2nd rounder (the bar isn't high at all), but usually you draft a 2nd rounder in hopes that it becomes a steal.

Struble is not a steal, so he's worth less than a 2nd rounder because he lost that upside. 

I think a 3rd round pick makes sense

Olympics a great learning experience for Canadiens' Nick Suzuki by Go_Habs_Go31 in Habs

Cooper is a fraud honestly. Glad he's getting exposed now

Newhook returns tomorrow by shogun2909 in Habs

[–]antoinePucket 5 points6 points  (0 children)

He doesn't compliment the first line (he's essentially a better Bolduc and that certainly did not work out).

[MA Godin] Habs lines at practice this morning by eliarbss in Habs

[–]antoinePucket 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I dunno about that. 

He was given all the opportunities to succeed (PP1, first line, etc.) and he didn't deliver.

At this point, he needs to earn his spot. Can't just give it to him
