He's one of the reason i'm not a big fan of signing Evans long term. Don't think it will take 3-4 years for Davidson to be ready.
Different types of players. Davidson isn’t a defensive player of PKer

Yup!
I'm sure all the other wins are worthless as well!
Keep up that astute hockey knowledge!
We're all cheering you on!
you're living on another planet if you think a coach can change a non playoff team to the best team in the league in a summer time with no additionnal assets. Laval had a great start, but has not faced adversity yet. Why do you always cry when I state facts?

No additional assets?

You think this is the EXACT same team as last year?

While I agree a coach by himself does not take a team from bottom to top in one season, the difference may not be just luck or weak opponents. It looks like it is at least partially the roster. They acquired a good new goalie and experienced D-men, while Beck, Tuck and Xhekaj have stabilized the forward group.

Again, Laval played 2 of the worst teams in the league. Dont think that Vincent is a savior. The team is almost the same as last year
Acquired a PPG player, 3 solid veteran D and a solid veteran backup. Sorry, not almost the same

No additional assets?

Probably not watching the games.

Condotta over Roy is a joke. Management is hoping that Jake Evans develops the skills to be a 2nd line player instead of playing Roy.

I’m sure it’s a very temporary call up. He didn’t even play last time. And again. Why add another 21 year old to that environment? You think Roy is the saviour? That he’ll make a huge difference? It’s been tried for the past 3 years and it doesn’t work. It’s not the time to add more kids to a rebuilding team. Laval is a great environment right now so keep them where they are and let them win.
If anything, the Habs should add vets at this point.

Yep leave the legitimate young prospects in Laval.

Does Roy need to be a savior to try changing up the top 6 and potentially score more goals than the 4 goals from Slaf, Dach, and Newhook in their combined 36 games? What's been tried for the past 3 years? Play one of our best prospects in the top 6 instead of middling players?

Condotta is just a band aid for the 4th line. If Habs find a better player on the market, they will make a trade. As we are seing, this team is not competing for a Playoffs spot. Laine will be back soon. RHP , too. And Pezzetta is eating popcorn in the stands.

How many guys have been called up from Laval over the past 3,4 years? How many have made an impact? Briefly, RHP and Roy. Roy didn’t even make the team out of camp! RHP crapped He scores a few goals and all of a sudden he’s top 6 in the nhl? No Laval player is going to move the needle this year. As I said, you think adding yet another 21 year old to the youngest team in the league is going solve their issues?

Why did they call Condotta up anyway? I don’t get why they keep scratching Pezz. He’s really pretty close to Condotta .
