Laval Rocket: 2024-25 Laval Rocket Thread

[Tyson]

Hey don't do my boy Davidson dirty by grouping him in with those two. He has more goals than Farrell and Kidney have pts combined.

% agree. Davidson is playing great hockey all around, even fights when he has to. The kid is a gamer.

Just think of what he'll do with first line and first wave pp opportunities

 

[Victoire HuGo]

I know Farrell was doing bad but didn't expect 2 pts bad

 

[Rapala]

"Farrell moved off the puck" Heard far too often in the play by play.
One thing is for certain Beck is struggling to support both Farrell and Kidney right now.
The team is a far cry from what it was early on when our 3rd and 4th lines were dictating outcomes.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Laval needs to be way better holding a lead.

Laval is missing Roy, Mesar and Tuch (Maybe Gignac ,too ? I don't remember), that's not an excuse to fail to hold a lead.

The 3rd and 4th lines aren't anything like they were to start the season. They were doing much of the heavy lifting early on.

 

[Andy]

I like what I have been hearing about Davidson.

Imagine the habs hit on Slaf, Beck, Hutson, Davidson in 2022. It's a long shot, but damn what a draft.

 

[Rapala]

I'll be interested to see how the lines get reshuffled now that RHP and Roy are back in the fold.
Honestly I'd love to see a Simmoneau Beck Davidson line tried out.
Talk about a pain in the ass line to play against.

 

[schwang26]

Once Mesar gets back, I hope they can send Farrel down. His lack of production is unacceptable.

I would do:
ABB - Dauphin - Roy
RHP - Condotta - Simoneau
Davidson - Beck - Farrell
Arseneau - Xhekaj - Kidney

I'd also like Simoneau on the Beck line, but I really don't see Farrell fitting with Condotta.

 

[EveryDay]

I would do:
ABB - Dauphin - Roy
RHP - Condotta - Simoneau
Davidson - Beck - Farrell
Arseneau - Xhekaj - Beaucage

I'd also like Simoneau on the Beck line, but I really don't see Farrell fitting with Condotta.

Kidney is more deserving to be in the lineup over guys like Farrell and Beaucage imo.

 

[Treb]

Forgot Kidney. Put him in instead of Beaucage.

ABB - Dauphin - Roy
RHP - Condotta - Simoneau

At this point is Sean Farrell good enough for the AHL?
2 assists in 19 games...

 

[Treb]

He was fine last year, so yes.

He might need a change of scenery at some point though.

 

[teamfirst]

i'd go with

Davidson-ABB-Roy
Simoneau-Beck-Xhekaj
RHP-Dauphin-Condotta
Arseneault-Farrell-Beaucage

 

[Adam Michaels]

Nice to see former Laval Rocket Nathan Légaré getting called up to New Jersey and will make his NHL debut.



He was traded to New Jersey last year in exchange for Arnaud Durandeau. Arnaud did well with Laval, putting up 6 pts in 10 GP. However, Habs opted not to bring him back. And with how well Laval is doing this year, you can't say they made the wrong choice not re-signing him.

I hear Trois Riviers is nice

Jersey must be desperate.

Now let's wait for some good news regarding Mesar please!

 

[EveryDay]

Anyone else in the organization is injured outside of Mesar, Reinbacher and Gignac?

 

[Treb]

Anyone else in the organization is injured outside of Mesar, Reinbacher and Gignac?

With Tuch close to returning, that's pretty much it.

 

[EveryDay]

With Tuch close to returning, that's pretty much it.

From my calculations, both Mesar and Gignac should be back right after Christmas.

If only Reinbacher could surprise and comeback before March.....

 

[ChesterNimitz]

Tuch is easily the most NHL ready player that I have seen watching Laval over the early part of this season. No one else has his combination of size, speed and physicality. He'll never score much at the next level, but he will be hell to play against. Between him, Beck, Florian Xhekaj, and Davidson, we have some iron coming up. Montreal will no longer be an easy team to play against.

 

[1909]

I would do:
ABB - Dauphin - Roy
RHP - Condotta - Simoneau
Davidson - Beck - Farrell
Arseneau - Xhekaj - Kidney

I'd also like Simoneau on the Beck line, but I really don't see Farrell fitting with Condotta.

Hopefully, Tuch will be back soon. Farrell does not belong at AHL level.

Engstrom as well, crazy draft.
