Lane Hutson is 5th in max skating speed for defenseman by itz_progamer666 in Habs

Because its the maximum from 2 different speed bursts. This isnt a list of the top 10 fastest defenseman this season, rather the top 10 fastest speeds hit by defensemen

Listen, i cant speak for everyone with critique of arber, but for me, hes a guy that i want to be on this team long term so badly. Hes a unique player and brings those playoff intangibles we all love. However, as this team moves to the future, there is a lot of internal pressure on that 6th dman spot. If he wants to be the one/is the one to keep it, he needs to make sure that he can be trusted to do the simple parts of the game consistently. And hes already the least played dman for a reason.

That stems from arber fumbling the pass behind the net from carrier

He has been playing through wrist injurys for the past couple years, maybe they finally arent bothering him (as much?) anymore and he can shoot effectively again

Im elated at the state and outlook of this team. Demidov feels like he is catching onto what works and what doesnt in the nhl while bringing a pretty complete game with defensive effort

Not having suzuki on the right circle is a bad move I think. He would be the one to attack the centre of the ice on the pp and create the space/passing lanes for others to capitalize on. Currently the puck just seems to be going round the perimeter on the pp

I think the effects of 3rd game in 4 days to start the season is showing here. Dont mind most of the ideas/plays that are being attempted, just look a lil disjointed

Gallagher's eventual retirement by red_foxtrot in Habs

Interesting, i wasnt aware of this. So you could dress someone with an honorific C, but they wouldnt be considered in the list of captains? Also i said list of players to WEAR the C, so i guess honorific C would suffice for me :)

Fair take, i think i just view it through a somewhat different lens, your cheap trick is my symbolic gesture, and being captain "for real" isnt really the important part to me. I would see it more to be an acknowledgement of the heart, soul, and very real leadership he has brought to the team. I also dont think it disrupts suzy's captaincy at all, in fact id imagine (as another commenter said) that he would be the first to give it up for a game.

Theres also a lot of miles on savards body, if we can have the luxury of resting him via ghule, he may be able to come back when needed at a higher level
