Pre-Game Talk: 2023-2024 Habs Rookie Camp & Training Camp

[FrankMTL]

I get that people are disappointed by the lineup, but after three days of intra squad games, and with a game scheduled tomorrow, what did you expect?

 

[1909]

Well...they should have known. Same thing every year.

That game should had been player at the Bell Place in Laval....

 

[expy]

DOes that include the upgraded hotdogs?

Nope, it's a soft drink, chips, and a granola bar. Everything else is still paid.

They did not spend tons of energy so far, and won't today either.

 

[expy]

Nice video and applause for Byron.

 

[Nedved]

Does the money for today go to a local charity? I thought that was the purpose of games like today?

 

[FrankMTL]

That's all it is. Don't think otherwise. Another invention to take your money.,

It's $15 including a snack....seriously, Molson is not making as much money as you think with this. He will make all his money off of concession sales (beer and habs products) as just opening the Bell Center, security, staffing etc etc...he's certainly not making much off the ticket sales, if at all.

Tanner Pearson needed a grand total of 1 scrimmage to work his way on the top line. Amazing

 

[Jaynki]

Gonna be a nice line-up tomorrow !

 

[1909]

Did someone see Lias Andersson in the last few days at the Camp ? Was he noticable ? Not there today.

 

[FrankMTL]

Doesn't make a difference......it's the same thing every year. I'm just saying that it's not surprising at all to see only half of an NHL line up.

 

[Jaynki]

Did someone saw Lias Andersson in the last few days at the Camp ? Was he noticable ? Not there today.

Yes. He was good. I think he will be the 1st call up from AHL.

Tanner Pearson needed a grand total of 1 scrimmage to work his way on the top line. Amazing

MSL is trying different things out. Pearson didn't work his way onto the 1st line, he's just being tried out there. Why are Pearson and Gallagher being tried where they're being tried? My best guess is to see how they would do there, if there are injuries during the season.

 

[Justin11]

Patience - we will see the rest tomorrow.

 

[Mrb1p]

Is the scrimmage being streamed legally anywhere?

The reds look they have only one third.

 

[Mrb1p]

This is already concerning. Slaf had no business on an NHL ice surface last season and now...what do you do with him?

If he still is not ready, which is to be confirmed, you swallow your pride and admit you were wrong and send him down to the AHL.

Perhaps. But over the past 30 or so years we've had a lot of weaker and far less promising players play for this team.

Promising, sure. Weaker ? Hardly, Slaf had very little redeeming qualities last year.

 

[FrankMTL]

The reds look they have only one third.

I mean both teams can't have full nhl rosters...there's not two NHL teams on the Canadiens. If one team has a 1/3 and the other team has a half, that still 15 NHL players...anyways, not gonna get into the math side of things, but that was pretty much what to expect

 

[expy]

Did they have LCD panels over all the exit doors last year ? Seems new.

 

[Redux91]

Oh wow so they did put Pearson with Nick and Cole lol ok, let's see

But Gallagher with Dach and Money is a suckerpunch to the nuts man

Looks like they want Guhle and Xhekaj vs Joysey tomorrow, get em going early

 

[Team_Spirit]

At the Bell Centre now, first time in a while. Free snacks with admission, $15 well spent.

If you see Metal kick him in the nuts for us.

 

[Redux91]

Where is Newhook slaf Roy and reinbacher?

Will be cool to see Reinbacher play a preseason game for us tomorrow, hope he shines
Hope Roy does well too

 

[Skip Bayless]

It kinda sucks for Kidney. 2nd round pick, puts up 100+ pts in junior the last two seasons…Gets treated like a 5th rounder, future 4th liner.

 

[expy]

 

[Habs10Habs]

Too bad, wanted to see Roy with Dach & Moneyhands again

Sorry, but you'll get Gallagher, and you'll like it.
