Laval Rocket: 2024-25 Laval Rocket Thread

Dobes as well.

We could have a fully healthy nhl and ahl team! When was the last time THAT happened? Has the curse finally been lifted?

Edit forgot Reinbacher

Literally came to this thread because I was wondering if Mesar was coming back soon lol.

Can't wait to see him in action.

As well, Gignac hasn’t been scoring, but he makes a big difference out there with his speed.

Laval need to work on their PP it's becoming atrocious.
Get Roy off the blueline where he tries far too many no chance shots and kills play.
He needs to be tight to the net with those hands of his and he also needs to be a puck distributor as well as a shooter.
I'd call his play selfish at best recently. Personally I'd use Beck in that left point half wall spot he's good at keeping plays alive and moving.
ABB has also been very bad lately telegraphing everything and making some seriously weak assed pass attempts.
Lots of room for improvement.

Saw the highlights from Xhekaj's 5 point night. Beauty pass on his first assist. Nice deflection on one of his goals too.

Engstrom had one pass where he faked the shot but then gave a beauty to Davidson I think? Man he's skilled. God I hope he can play the right side. Kind of screwed if he can't.

Saw Mailloux actually make some solid D plays. He doesn't look like a lost cause which is good.

Davidson with some nice plays.

Interesting to see what happens when we get some players back from injury.

It was great no doubt, but Bridgeport has 5 wins this year. It was actually 2-1 until sometime in the second. We need to keep this in mind. Let’s see them beat Hershey like that and I’ll get excited.

Laval are 6th in the league.

Laval are 6th in the league.

They were actually first for a while. Then 3rd. Now 6th. They haven’t looked great for the past 10-12 games. A lot of those points came against bad teams. I’m just saying, don’t get too excited without putting it into context. I’m hoping that a healthy team will allow them to put together a streak, but here comes Belleville on Friday and we all know how that can go.

Laval is having a good season, great, if compared to some past years. They are sixth, but both Charlotte and Toronto can overtake them as they have played 2 and 3 less games. Wilkes-Barre also has an outside chance to pass them. Still not bad in a 32 team league!

As long as they stay ahead of two of Utica/Belleville/Syracuse it doesn't really matter.
