Laval Rocket: 2024-25 Laval Rocket Thread

That's what they said last time Rein lost days.

He took a shot on the knees when he was checked on the boards. Didn't see any issues with his skating afterwards although it's the first time i see Lindstrom (RHD) on a specialty team.

Also telling is that Vincent was using Rein on the first unit in PK/PP but now on the second unit. It could be the new toy syndrome...or knee problem concerns.

(Funny how some have penned Rein as Savards replacement based on his "top 5" pick. Yet Vincent is putting Mailman on the 1st units and sometimes running him for the entire 2 minutes on the PK. )

David Reinbacher injury history is starting to worry. He get injured a lot and is still only 20 years. Not a good sign for when he reach the NHL where he will have to play even harder.

Ya this kid better do something to settle my nervousness about him. This is really troubling that he’s constantly out or following “the plan”. Time to play a regular schedule.

I love how they throw out deflections of what's really apparent.

First time out...his knee wobbles trying to stand up...missed several games with "scheduled" rest .

Second time, he's favoring his knee going back for the puck...out for 3-4 games with "scheduled" rest.

Yesterday he got hit in the knees when taken into the boards and fell hard taking someone into the boards.

I don't want to start any rumours but watching him closely on slo-mo it's clear what is happening. It's also clear that the kid is trying to play his game despite his knees. THAT get's him a LOT of credibility in my eyes.

(BTW...I can't get TOI from AHL games so the next best way to see what the coach thinks about a players game is how he's used on the specialty teams. That's is why I reference that in my reports. M and Rein are the two best RHD and two best D's we have in the AHL so if one or the other is missing or how they are used tells us a lot of how they are viewed by the coach. When I saw Lindstrom out on a specialty team instead of Rein after a hit on him, concern antennas went up.)

I'm checking RDS and can't see the game for tomorrow...but see games for next week.

WTF? It's suppose to be at 3 on Sunday.

Are they carrying the game? Or has something changed?
 
Worst case scenario, the game is at least on RDS.ca
What do you mean? Online? I have a few places where I can see it streamed but I can't record or high resolution so that's not great for me.

I enjoy "scouting" a few players more then the game itself and for that I need to record it on high resolution (4k) and the ability to go through slow motion and replays.

Anywho...I'll see what happens tomorrow.
