Playoff hopes are fine as long as Mailloux isnt traded for Zac Whitecloud or a Clutterbuck type in desperation

Price`s contract is a non issue , overage isnt needed to get anyone but it is dead money

If Dach and Newhook can score 50 combined next year thats a huge bonus

Upfront ...Slaf, Cole , Nick , Dach and Newhook is all we have moving forward to keep

Roy will make the dance

 

[GEEMAN]

Roy will make the dance

yup , was only looking at current roster

 

[TheCountofMonteCristo]

Fuck the fans. The rebuild will last as long as it needs to last and we need to be tanking for an elite scoring forward. If we aren't tanking for one then we need to be looking to acquire one but unless or until we get that player the rebuild is in vain. If they somehow make the playoffs anyway, great, but HuGo should not be mortgaging assets to win now.

says the person who wants them to win every game he attends...

It would only be an issue if I attended every game.

It would only be an issue if I attended every game.

but those wins you want to see could cost us valuable draft spots...

Damn, one thing I didn't realise and it speaks to our sucktitude, is that Slaf is currently 5th on our team in points (4th among forwards) with

<checks notes>

a 29 point pace

 

[TheCountofMonteCristo]

Not upset to lose Lindstrom but I will say it was another result of our carrying three goalies. We lose a roster spot.

Yup , putrid offence has been a very long problemo

 

[lecoqsportif]

He replaces Drysdale?

Depth only until Zellweger and Luneau take over

Analysis heard this week:

Habs D are 2nd in goals, behind only Colorado, but are 3rd last in assists.

They help finish plays, which is not their main role, but create very little which is their principal job.

Silver lining: it's gone up

Sure…. But my post is more of an indictment of the team as a whole… of course, those injuries to Dach and Newhook hurt a lot

This might also be because our forwards don't score.

 

[lecoqsportif]

Contributing factor, for sure.

 

[Habsy]

This might also be because our forwards don't score.

But our D do. #1 in the league as of a couple days ago.

Big reason they're where they are

 

[Habsy]

Colorado passed them again. 33-30 so far.

Goalies stole minimum 10 points so far , team would be doomed
