Probably a deliberate video board feature aimed at the Habs

Laf should never, ever wear another jersey.

Tro does more, Laf definitely more skilled , but I’d lean Trochek for now

Agree. He’s 13 in perpetuity. Next is an A and then a C.

Third best skater so 4th best player. He has the potential to move up…
Agreed. I think he’s the next captain once Trouba is moved this offseason. Not sure if they’d immediately give it to Laf or wait a year, but I think he can handle it regardless
Was listening to BPM Sports (French station) out here in Ottawa this morning and his agent was on the call to explain away an appearance snafu with Joshua Roy. At the end of the interview, his agent did confirm that they were working on a long term deal, but stated the rumours around the numbers are false. Said the fact that the Rangers are in MTL this week will hopefully speed things along.

Subjective but Laf has been better than Kreids or Troch so far this season, a small sample but all we have. Laf and Troch were our two best forwards in the playoffs as well, esp, as it went deeper. I’ll stand by Laf being our second best forward this year. If I’m wrong you can let me know at the end of the season/playoffs. Hahaha.
Just to be clear Shesty isn’t our best player.
That would be Panarin by a wide margin.
Don’t assume because journalists are running with it, that it’s accurate.
There’s also a very valid argument that Fox is ahead of him as well.

He’s definitely been better than Kreider and probably Tro as well so far but yes it’s a small sample size
how do you imagine negotiations and deals go
if he's thinking the same thing you are (I could ask for 10 mill by the end of the season!) why would he sign for less now?
ya'll are just plain weird.
Laf knows he's good, he knows he's in an excellent position playing on the most productive line in the NHL, he knows he can get paid. He's not going to panic sign a contract just because the Rangers put some lowball in front of him.
What's Drury waiting for? Nothing, he's negotiating now trying to get a deal done. Do you imagine Drury's offering like $4mill per and 8 years long and if only he'd offer $8x8 things would get done and Laf would be signed for a team friendly deal? Laf's gonna squeeze 'em for whatever he can and he's not some ignorant kid just happy to be here and glad to be paid whatever the team would like

I know that lol. I just want it signed ASAP because the longer it goes the higher it gets.

If these two cross paths this year, Sam might take an early retirement.

I remember Laf taking an awkward hit/fall in the last game. He got up gingerly but stayed in the play. Good sign that he’s skating today. I bet he’d get a game off if they weren’t in Montreal.
