More injuries in Laval: Trudeau and Parker-Jones.
Habs will have to send players down the way things are going...

2-7God laval sucks, what are we after this game? 1-8
we're the sharks of the ahl
nope I live in the states lmao, just reverse jinx2-7
So you're one of those leaving the venue when they are down by 2 and there's 5 minutes left, right?![]()
The bolded part is totally inaccurate. Rockets could even add veterans without sitting those they have if they wanted. Andersson is veteran status exempt. Only Maillet and Bourque are. Stephens is the third one, but he has played less than 320 games, which gives him a different veteran status as he still counts within a certain development threshold.I won't criticize a win but I think it's interesting the guys Houle doesn't like like pot a goal and still not get ice time. I'd rather send Mysak or Kidney to the ECHL for a bit than keep getting fourth line minutes while AHL grinders play ahead of them.
Also I wonder why tobie bisson is in Laval and Tourigny has to play in the ECHL. Maybe management expected more injuries so they got extra depth this year? It feels like we have three more dmen than we need. Luckily the AHL has a vet limit or a few guys would never get in the lineup.
Laaouan would be my bet. He's good in 3R.It'll be more guys from 3R will be called up rather than Habs send guys down. On D to replace Trudeau, there are Ortiz, Laaouan & Tourigny on AHL deals. And at forward, there are Novak (who was sent back down), Yaremko (who was sent back down earlier today) and Voyer.
I believe Andersson is also a 261-320 pro game player like Stephens.The bolded part is totally inaccurate. Rockets could even add veterans without sitting those they have if they wanted.

And one of those who starts singing joyously once they are up by two goals.2-7

Even so it's fairly clear scratching some of them is a direct order from above. Beaudin goes from top PP and heavy minutes to scratched every other game. Guys like Mysak and kidney sit just as much without the good minutes when they do playThe bolded part is totally inaccurate.

I'll admit I don't know squat about the AHL, but I was under the impression that Laval would be a powerhouse this year. Was I badly misinformed, or are they really disappointing?
Too many raw rookies. Guys like Belzile, Richard, Teasdale, Schuneman, Dello, Abandonnato and Pierrick Dubé were let go on the UFA market. Primeau is stocked in MTL. Huge holes to fill for kids like Roy, Kidney, Farrell, Dobes, Mailloux & cie.I'll admit I don't know squat about the AHL, but I was under the impression that Laval would be a powerhouse this year.

I might see the glass half full, but I love that the Rocket (real Habs prospects) and the Habs are becoming good at 5vs5 or scoring goal, something we havent seen too often lately if I am not mistaken.They have been a tire fire defensively.
Some are blaming the coach, some are blaming the D, some are blaming the goalies.
9th in the AHL for GF.
32nd in the AHL for GA.
In the 3 games they have points:
One had the goalie as the first star.
One was Roy 5 pts night.
One had the goalie as the 2nd star.

At the start of the season, a majority (I included) thought that the Rocket finally had an interesting team that should perform in the AHL (and with rookies with potential)I'll admit I don't know squat about the AHL, but I was under the impression that Laval would be a powerhouse this year.

After 10 games, the Rocket is last in the league and has granted the most goals against. Are we too enthusiastic about Canadian prospects or there are other explanations for these bad performances?
