Laval Rocket: 2024-25 Laval Rocket Thread

Only Pascal can answer that but one is 6', one is 5'9 and i believe Roy is a year or two younger.

that shouldn't matter, as I assume the reason he's benching Farrell is for his play as that top line should have been better since Farrell Roy and Gignac played together at times last year. If this is about benching Farrell for his play, what message does it send to bench him over Roy? Size should have nothing to do with it or the fact that Roy is younger unless he's just going to rotate players in and out of the lineup and he's not benching Farrell because of his play.

You are not wrong and I would add that neither are going to be players that will help your team contend. Not sold on either player

why him over Roy though, who has looked mostly like shit in the 2 games so far. Very little effort, why bench Farrell and not Roy?

It could have something to do with efforts during practices/off-ice training. Pascal said they were keeping track of that when talking about Mesar.

Do you have a video of Vincent saying it?

I read it on an article, not sure if it was said in a video or not. It's a "quote" from Pascal Vincent in this French article: https://ici.radio-canada.ca/sports/2112591/filip-mesar-canadien-premier-tour-repechage-rocket-laval

The article quote:
On mesure plusieurs choses durant les entraînements et c'est un des meilleurs jusqu'à présent au niveau de l’intensité durant les entraînements. On a des résultats chiffrés sur papier après chaque entraînement qui nous disent à quel point ils se sont poussés eux-mêmes. Puis jusqu'à présent, il se pousse au maximum.

Translation: We measure many things during practices and he's one (Mesar) of the best for intensity during practice. We have numbered results on paper after each practices that tell us how much they are pushing themselves. Right now (Mesar) push himself to maximum.

Good for Mesar.

I imagine they called him up simply for practice.

It's good news for Arseneau, it means there was probably no actual fracture of his finger and they were able to put the joint back in place. It looked pretty ugly initially.

Cavallin is a fun name. Reminds me of those kid-friendly swear alternatives your grand-maman might use.

<<Ca va fesser en cavallin>>

I've never met a grand-mother who uses kid-friendly swear words.

Your granny was probably throwing malakas and putana around at the dinner table like it was nothing !

Unfortunately, my grandparents either died before I was born or died when I was like 1. However, I've been around a lot of grandmothers who did indeed throw around malakas and poutanas around. And have met grandmothers of non-Greek friends who also had mouths like sailors.

I remember seeing Stephane Quintal do the exact same thing in a fight. He showed the guy he was fighting his finger and the guy was like “go” “go”!
