Player Discussion Alex Newhook

[Habssince89]

Newhook has that finishing ability we sorely need. A great complimentary piece that fits the age window. He will look good with Dach and Slafkovsky

 

[salbutera]

He is what? 22? He is still learning but the kid can skate and shoot the puck.

Oh pls, if he can’t score 35G+ this year for that astronomical mid-1st round + guaranteed 2nd round HOFer price paid to acquire… he should be taken out behind the shed and tar & feathered!!

and it was the 31st pick, not mid 1st round.

Makes it even worse, how could HuGo surrender a guaranteed 1st ballot HOFer

I like how he gets in on the forecheck unfortunately he doesn't have the secondary support from the other side and Suzuki is usually playing the third man role on dump ins. I keep insisting Gallagher is not the right player for that duo. Ylonen was given a chance last season with Suzuki he deserves another shot.

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

Looks like a solid 2nd line player with speed. Good trade in my opinion.

while working on the vids for my Top 20, I found this and thought some would get a kick out of seeing it.

It would be amazing if he pot's 25 this year. Very possible

 

[TomKosto]

I'm not sure he's gonna be a 60-65pts player every year, but he has great speed,great shot and what I like the most, he's really intense and he's hustling. It's even more impressive in live at the Centre Bell. If he can keep it up, we have a keeper. Sucks that Dach is injured, Newhook - Suzuki - Dach could have been an interesting alternate line (SLaf-Monahan-Caufield the other line).

 

[Zilo44]

2.9M for 4 years. Sign me in

 

[HuGort]

Newhook was playing well with Suzuki last 4 or 5 games. Coming along nicely. Now we have to see who Marty puts with Suzuki.

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

For Pete’s sake. We were just talking about how well he’s been doing and then he gets hurt.

What the f***ing f***?

This team is cursed. What god did Molson piss off?

I am not a true believer in curses but let's be honest...nothing has gone right for this organization since they left the forum.

For that type of looking injury?
It was already minimum 4 weeks

But it's feeling more like a 3 monther now..
Even 'just' a high ankle sprain is 8 weeks ffs
Feel so God damn bad for him man
He was coming along so well

Throw in Heineman too. He’s a big loss for Laval. Wonder if he’s back soon

It will never end for Habs.

 

[Paddyjack]

To be honest I'm starting to have a Habs fatigue these days.... not because they are not very good, but because of all the injuries for the past two three years. I'm just....tired, I don't know how to explain it. I guess I would like to see Dach,Pinard,Harris,Xhekaj,Newhook and see them grow but they all fall down.
