I don't hate his game with nick , him and anderson is another story though
you guys expected a free 60 point player right of the bat with a late first and second? Sounds like a you problem
nothing significant

He's still on pace to have his best season for goals, assists and points.
15-20-35 would be acceptable.
Right now, I'm sticking with the I would have preferred the prospects rather than Newhook.
That said, Newhook could be used as part of a package to trade for an improvement next off-season, or the year after potentially.

Newhook turns into mini Anderson when he plays with him.
He looks different on the PP2.

At some point the common denominator is simply Anderson , guy should be on the third line away from any skilled players

Demidov is a HAB
Anderson needs to play on a line with Dvorak and Gallagher.
Those guys play the same regardless, Anderson playing his way won't disrupt them.

Alex Newhook is exactly what I was expecting so far. Useless. And they gave two good picks for that.
Right. 10 games in playing mostly with bums can give us an accurate evaluation.

It's very important that we have no patience with young players, and play them with vets with no hockey sense and play them out of position.
These are the pillars of a team that develops its youth well and wins championships.
Anderson was great with RHP last year. I'd like to see them together, whether the center is Dvo, Monahan, or even Suzuki while he's separated from Caufield.
Avs fans warned ya.
One of those picks was turned into Ross Colton. Doesn't have that many points but 5 goals and is a big energy guy for the Avs. He's really been a huge part of helping the Avalanche play with more than 1 and a half lines. 1st, 3rd and 4th lines are rolling this year.
The 1st was used to take a late first rounder that's over in the KHL... so we all know how that goes.

funny... he's on pace for career-best g & points, and has been fine defensively in the increased minutes/role. His production has been streaky, 2 near ppg stretches and 2 goose egg stretches, while playing with the black hole that Anderson has been almost every game. No stretch to suggest that his play would easily have translated to more points thus far without pucks dying on Anderson's stick so regularly.
Far from useless, what an odd perception, almost as if you had a pre-conceived notion and would rather stick to that than watch the games.

Go Habs Go
I haven't been able to watch much of the Habs, I see he's got 1 goal in the last 16 games, that's um something. Maybe giving up a 1st and a 2nd for him wasn't the best idea for a team that could be rebuilding for several more years.
Habs did a shooting drills practice yesterday because the entire team can't score (excluding today's game, the drills seems to have somewhat worked).

Tied for 3rd on goals on the team while being hip tied to absolute offensive blackholes for the most part of the season.
Should be with Monahan and Ylonen if going by merit.

Some guys lack confidence and some have way to much baseless confidence. The human condition.

9 points in 17 games is acceptable for now. He needs to stay with Suzuki.
That's an interesting idea, Monahan with Ylonen and Newhook...
I like his game, but he's been playing with Anderson for the last 10 games or so and that dude has been a blackhole for offense.
Newhook still has 9 points in 17 games and could easily have much more if Anderson could convert anything.

Gallagher has earned his spot in the top 9. But it's time for Ylonen or RHP to take a spot in the top 9 and bounce Pearson to the 4th line.
A player with good hockey sense like Monahan would be great for a fast player with a shot and some scoring touch like Ylonen.
Newhook - Suzuki/Monahan- Ylonen
Caufield - Monahan/Suzuki - Slafkovsky
Anderson - Dvo - RHP/Gallagher
Pearson - Evan's - Gallagher/RHP/Pez
