Player Discussion Alexandre Carrier

[Pure Laine]

On top of his defensive game, he's collecting pts here and there.

Well done.

He's been a lot better recently as Dach elevated his play. That line has been finding some chemistry. His speed is a much needed addition to this roster. Not a bad move at all.

Him and Dach have been playing better but their production is still not enough for a 2nd line. Dach has 5 points in his last 10 games and Newhook 4 points. When is the last time a team won a cup with a 40 points 2nd line center and a 30 points 2nd line winger?

Probably the last time a team went from 5th last in the league and won the cup the next year.

We aren't competing for the cup this year and we are seeing a steady rise in the play of all 3 players on that line. With Demidov joining next year to punt Newhook down to the 3rd line. Demidov alone will raise the production of Laine and Dach.
