Most likely to start in MTL
1. Joswawa
2. Bech
3. Mailloux
It's hard to change anything 10 days later. Maybe Mailloux first?!

I think none will start in MTL, Beck goes back to OHL. Mailloux was not much better than Barron and a full AHL season would do him good. Roy is stuck between a lot of veterans they need to prop up ahead of the deadline (Armia, Pearson, let s face it Gallagher will be iced but nobody is touching that contract)It's hard to change anything 10 days later. Maybe Mailloux first?!

None of the above in all probability, but Roy at least as some chance. Mailloux has definite flaws in his game that he needs to work out in Laval, while Beck is underage and going back to the OHL.It's hard to change anything 10 days later. Maybe Mailloux first?!

Curious if we see some more cuts with only 3 pre-season games left (Leafs Sept 30 & Oct 3rd, Sens Oct 8th)
Guessing some of these guys who played last night might be at risk:
Jan MysakMitchell StephensJohn Parker-JonesNicolas BeaudinStrauss MannThey might even try and send Ylonen & Primeau down early if they think there's a better chance they clear waivers now as opposed to the end of camp
Figures crossed I’ve got tickets to mondays game so I’d like to see a pretty much full teamI think they will make a batch of cuts after tonight s game.
Too early. They might still be tradeable, alone or in a package.Curious if we see some more cuts with only 3 pre-season games left (Leafs Sept 30 & Oct 3rd, Sens Oct 8th)

His draft year wasn't anything special, but many people still argued that he should have gone higher than the 5th round. However, when we talk about his U20 KHL career, we're not talking only about his draft year. Kaprizov was phenomenal in his +1 and +2 seasons, which are seasons that are included in the U20 category.You're kidding right? lol. If Kaprizov was one of the best,why was he drafted in the 5th round?
2015? That was one of the best & deepest drafts in quite some time - especially top-100His draft year wasn't anything special, but many people still argued that he should have gone higher than the 5th round.

You seem to be confusing U20 for draft year. U20 includes the draft year, but also includes seasons after that. The point simply was that if Michkov posts higher numbers than Kaprizov's D+1 and D+2 seasons, it'll be one hell of a feat.
What are you talking about? I'm speaking specifically about Kaprizov, whose draft-year numbers weren't anything special. We weren't talking about the quality of the draft. This was simply a discussion comparing Michkov to Kaprizov...2015? That was one of the best & deepest drafts in quite some time - especially top-100
Habs of course have nothing to show for..
Expect waivers tomorrow for a lot of players imo.
Barron has been rather unimpressive again.
start either Roy or Beck until Dvorak returns.
They might even try and send Ylonen & Primeau down early if they think there's a better chance they clear waivers now as opposed to the end of camp
Don't they deserve a taste with the camp they're having? It's not a necessity but if we're talking 4-5 games then I don't have an issue with it.I hope they don't do this.
I would start the season with 13F, 7D and 3G right now.
Caufield-Suzuki-Monahan
Harvey Pinard-Darch-Slafkosvky
Anderson-Newhook-Gallagher
Pearson-Evans-Ylonen
Pezzetta
Waivers: Armia
IR: Dvorak
Guhle-Savard
Matheson-Harris
Xhekaj-Kovacevic
Lindstrom
IR: Wideman
AHL: Barron (bad camp like last year and no need for waivers)
Montembeault
Allen
Primeau
I think we need to wait for Primeau. i would try with 3 goalies for a month. The best would be to trade Allen.
The kids need the AHL............they just do.I think none will start in MTL, Beck goes back to OHL. Mailloux was not much better than Barron and a full AHL season would do him good. Roy is stuck between a lot of veterans they need to prop up ahead of the deadline (Armia, Pearson, let s face it Gallagher will be iced but nobody is touching that contract)
Allen wont get touched at the 3.8M contract........and if he did, boy would that be fantastic!!I saw where it was speculated that the Habs don't think Primeau will clear waivers due to TB/Avs and might start the season with 3 goalies. I don't get that as I would just waive Allen as I don't think he will be picked due to his 2nd year but it would be great if he did and if not he could be great for Dobes.
Barron struggled last night somewhat, but his upside is high.Expect waivers tomorrow for a lot of players imo.
Barron has been rather unimpressive again.
Preseason games are for me, always duds............I hate seeing 8-9 guys from the team, and a bunch of kids...I know why it's done, I just struggle with any kind of results, period.Figures crossed I’ve got tickets to mondays game so I’d like to see a pretty much full team
I remember reading that our former clown GM removed the pre-season team bounding retreat when he became GM so we are looking at early in his reign of terror.Don't they do the retreat team bonding things every year? Just shorter usually (like one weekend).
There is less chance Primeau gets claimed if he is waived at the same time as a bunch of other goalies/players than if he is waived alone a month or two after the season started (like what happened to Monty). No point in keeping him up, unless Allen or Monty aren't 100% and Habs knows one of them will be on IR soon.I saw where it was speculated that the Habs don't think Primeau will clear waivers due to TB/Avs and might start the season with 3 goalies. I don't get that as I would just waive Allen as I don't think he will be picked due to his 2nd year but it would be great if he did and if not he could be great for Dobes.
