Habs Season Thread: 2024-25 Regular Season

I mean, there is progression, he’s been generating 2-3 great chances per game lately, where was that before. He’s been hitting a few posts. With just a few adjustments maybe he’s on the verge of a breakout.

Exactement
 
I think you're conflating progression with second line center usage.
He’s just been better at center, but he’s been getting confidence. Can’t really complain about his play lately, that’s more than we’ve seen from Dach all year.
 
PPG is just one benchmark. Bob Gainey was .43 too. You must think Bulis and him were the same.
Bulis was better defensively than Newhook is now. He used his speed to get break after break only to hit post or crest or glass.

Newhook is Bulis reincarnated.
