MB should perform the amateur scouting role in addition to GM pro player evaluation...not to mention 2.2M in cap savings
To be fair, Max has been pretty good overall for Vegas. They just gave up a lot to get him.
Tatar’s simply done w Habs what he’s done his entire career...consistent 20G+.Tatar was in the doghouse and Vegas needed another sniper as contenders .
Tatar simply exploded with us and meshed, nobody expected this result
Career year with the Habs at 29Tatar’s simply done w Habs what he’s done his entire career...consistent 20G+.
Hehas spent his entire career w Wings, and took time adjusting to VGK...which is normal. Can’t believe Tatar was a “throw in” by GMGM
like 2/3 of this teamNow Tatar just has to produce in the playoffs.
“Some players get you to the playoffs ...others get you through the playoffs”Now Tatar just has to produce in the playoffs.
Assists have shot up during his Habs tenure - he’s maintained his steady G output....20G+ per season in every NHL season as a regular except rookie season of 19.Career year with the Habs at 29
it will be an interesting upcomming off season. the prospect of losing both Tatar and danault will set us back for sure. Some days, I feel we would be better of with tatar, other days, I feel danault brings more since he covers big weakness of our club (espicially on faceoff).
it was nice to see daneault doing extra time this week practiving the kids on faceoff. You hope he does this every practice until the end of the year so suzuki, KK and Evans.
I like # 2 to start the first wave of PPMy only complaint (other than swapping Armia & Lekhonen) is the PP personnel usage.
Gallagher & Anderson can’t be on the same unit - they looked confused as if they didn’t know who was responsible for net front presence.
I would also not have Toffoli & Weber on the same unit as both are lined up on the left side of the ice on the PP.
Unit 1
Romanov - right point
Suzuki - right half wall
Weber - left point
Drouin - left half wall
Gallagher - net front presence
Unit 2
Tatar - right point
KK - right half wall
Petry - left point
Toffoli - left wall
Anderson - net front presence
