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

[MasterD]

Mesar is invisible.

He's playing?

I remember seeing Kidney on the lineup, too. Haven't seen him on the ice.

 

[Skip Bayless]

Heineman not looking as sharp as he did last year. I’ll wait to see an actual high intensity game first before passing judgement

He's trying to play that sneaky Pacioretty game, that's not his game. He needs to be more in motion.

 

[Fatbiggie]

Didn’t really see Mesar this period

 

[1909]

True. Don't know why Caufield and Suzuki are playing though.

Because you have to put some pros on the ice. Dach, Monahan, Gally, Matheson... are all there too. I guess, Caufield and Suzuki won't play the 1st pre season game. They have 70 healthy players on hand, so.....

 

[Tyson]

Mysak does a lot of things well. Doesn't seem to be able to finish though.

Could evolve into a reliable 4th line center. Huge year for him upcoming.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Mysak does a lot of things well. Doesn't seem to be able to finish though.

He'll need to figure that side out, for sure.. But he did have a few goals at the rookie tournament.

 

[Rapala]

Evidently a lot of the boys got their skating in yesterday.

Kidney is the invisible man. In Junior he could pile up points by staying away from the boards and feeding his wingers

 

[Rapala]

Its his strength on his skates that is quite impressive. He plays a heavier game than many of our prospects.

He was one of Seattle's best players in the post season. Was one of the few players who played positive games in the Mem Cup.

 

[ChesterNimitz]

Could evolve into a reliable 4th line center. Huge year for him upcoming.

His game and effectiveness has really taken a step forward since last year. If that progression continues, he may well have a future in the NHL.

 

[1909]

He was one of Seattles best players in the post season. Was one of the few players who played positive games in the Mem Cup.

Habs seems to have more success with their mid-rounds players than their top ones. Davidson and Roy seem more NHL ready than Mesar, Kidney or Beck.

 

[ChesterNimitz]

He was one of Seattle's best players in the post season. Was one of the few players who played positive games in the Mem Cup.

What’s even more impressive is that he played injured during the playoffs. This kid looks like a professional hockey player. Others today, less so.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Evidently a lot of the boys got their skating in yesterday.

Looks like Armia also got his stick this morning the way he's shooting or whiffing on the puck,

 

[Rapala]

What’s even more impressive he played injured during the playoffs. This kid looks like a professional hockey player. Others today, less so.

Some were saying he's going to the ECHL they may want to reassess that position.

 

[ChesterNimitz]

Perhaps you are accurate with respect to Mesar and Kidney, but Beck is closer to playing in the NHL than most of our other forward prospects.

 

[Redux91]

Wow what a save lol,
Mann*

 

[Adam Michaels]

Wow what a save lol, Spunar?

It was Strauss Mann. Still wearing his San Jose Barracuda mask.

 

[Lockin17]

Trudeau and Savard looks good together

 

[Redux91]

LOL all because Gallagher can't launch a transition

What a pass Zukes to Norlinder

 

[Skip Bayless]

Norlinder has been very good in transition, good on him for that goal.

 

[A55P2]

Norlinder finally showing some good offensive instincts!

 

[McGees]

Cole gonna get 50 this year.

 

[Fatbiggie]

Good for Norlinder, he’s playing well

 

[Redux91]

I think that's the 3rd time I've seen someone hit their own teammate lol

 

[Skip Bayless]

We have playoff atmosphere during a pre-season scrimmage for a tanking team.
