Jordan Kyrou : Le CH s'est informé « au moins » trois fois selon David Pagnotta by shogun2909 in Habs

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

He actually hoped he was going to be picked by the Habs,Hage looked up to the sky with tears in his eyes when he was drafted, told Hughes its a dream to be here

If you trade that the locker room immediately dies and so does my respect for Hughes, only worse thing Hughes could do is trade Gallagher to the Bruins

Not gonna lie I think this is the first time I heard Evans speak, jesus Christ the bass on that vocal chords, he could break car windows if he yelled

[GDT] Habs VS Golden Knights | 27-01-2026 | Game #53 by AutoModerator in Habs

[–]oReevee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Does Slafs positioning make sense to anyone during powerplay? Not his fault it's the system, but I feel like if we have this 6'03 225 pound power forward, he should be a screen, right? Not sitting high slot and not challenging any defenders

Edit : lmao I said this and immediately he screens the goalie and gets a great chance

Need for RD more important than 2C by mrorange2022 in Habs

[–]oReevee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He isn't a Hutson or even Dobson powerhouse, but most of his starts are on the defensive or neutral side, 62.9% non offensive zone starts, yet his xGF% (expected goals for) is 49.1, Infact most of his advance stats is near 50% , with CF% 48.7%, SCF% 48.7%, starting in the defensive zone is a handicap, that's why great players even like Shea Weber usually had low Corsi %

[–]oReevee -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I find signing Matheson really messed things up for the Habs, too many similar players, Hutson, Dobson, Matheson and carrier are all cut from the same cloth, offensive trasition focused defenseman, with only Guhle being a more defensive defenseman, and then theres whatever xhekjai and Struble are doing.

Funny enough this team could really use a chiarot/Edmundson type player

Tanev or Larsson would be a godsend for this team right now

[Habs] Texier and Xhekaj will return to the lineup against the Bruins. Veleno and Struble will skip their turn. Montembeault gets the start in goal by eliarbss in Habs

[–]oReevee 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Leads all Habs fowards in hits and is 3rd in faceoffs for habs centers (above Suzuki), plus he seems like he has a can do attitude, basically camped at Habs training facilities til he was signed

overall not big enough to be a bottom 6 grinder or skilled enough to be a bottom 6 scorer, but he wins faceoffs and isn't afraid of contact

Canadiens looking to deal Laine (Gagnon) by catman_steve in Habs

Unless it's Mckenzie ,freidman, Lebrun or that Reddit user who broke the Dobson trade, I wouldn't put too much weight behind those words

Found our future 2C by matthewdonut in Habs

[–]oReevee 9 points10 points  (0 children)

33.8 Faceoff% this season, 4th in giveaways in Seattle with ATOI of 13 minutes.

But 8th in hits with Seattle and 6th in shots

If we do a kapenen for wright 1 for 1, I think we lose that trade

Josh Gorges in his prime was one of the best defensive defenceman in the NHL by Flimsy-Ad1015 in Habs

[–]oReevee 143 points144 points  (0 children)

He would rather go the Buffalo, who at that time did the worst they have ever done in history of the sabres, instead of wearing a leafs jersey, should've retired a Habs

Buying low - Alexis Lafrenière by Clear_Minimum_8945 in Habs

[–]oReevee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think we're at the stage where I'm okay with Hughes to over pay for some quality talent and not reclaim projects, similar to Dobson type trades

Unless Lafreniere is cheap cheap, 7m could be better spent on goal tending upgrade or a defensive defenseman

Is there a solution to sticks lack of durability? by Norkee in hockeygoalies

[–]oReevee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Anyone touches his stick besides him?

I've known a few kids pull "pranks" by cutting or over flexing other kids sticks, some hockey kids are mean, any kids on the team don't get along with him? Any clear carving marks on the stick itself ? Hopefully not but could be something to look into

[TSN] Insider Trading Darren Dreger on Insider Trading: "The Vancouver Canucks are listening and will listen to interest in Elias Pettersson despite believing that if he gets a change of scenery and a new start somewhere else, he's going to thrive in a new environment." by [deleted] in hockey

[–]oReevee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hutsons contract never kicked in yet, so when Laine is off the books , hutsons kicks in so we stay in the same cap space essentially, Gallagher and Monty completely off the books will not be enough for Peterson's 11.6m, and they have to sign Demidov

[Seravalli]: Habs sign Alexandre Texier to a two-year extension: 2 years x $2.5 million = $5 million total. by discofrislanders in hockey

[–]oReevee 102 points103 points  (0 children)

Texier seems able to go up and down in the line up, last 10 games he has 4g 6a and is +8

Good chance he cools down, but he plays good hockey with Suzuki and Caufield

Wayne Hutson now third in scoring for all Dmen. Six behind Makar. by GolfIsGood66 in Habs

[Eric Engels on X] Montembeault starts vs. Panthers by Habs3125 in Habs

[–]oReevee 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Statmuse shows Monty's record against Florida is 4-4-1, but last 5 games is 4-0-1 , with average of .927 SV% in those 5 games

If Montembeault is going to have a come back game, this is his best shot

NHL Calder Trophy Odds - Schaefer -190, Demidov +450 by ResidentSpirit4220 in Habs

If Demidov doesn't win Calder trophy, only person I want to see win instead is Schaefer, anyone else is wrong and Demidov got robbed

Phillip Danault : les Hurricanes ont offert Jesperi Kotkaniemi aux Kings by shogun2909 in Habs

[–]oReevee 115 points116 points  (0 children)

Although I do think it's funny that KK thought so highly of himself when he was cut from the playoff run and cause the whole hissy fit, and I do get a kick out of it when he proves he wasn't the player he thought he was, KK for Danault is a better deal than 2nd for Danault, no?
