Pre-Game Talk: Countdown thread to 24-25 Season (T - 3 days)

[The Real Timo]

Montreal has til 5 p.m. Monday to submit a 23 man opening day roster that complies with the salary cap.

They need to cut:

2 D (Mailloux, Engstrom)
1 G (Dobes)
1 F (Roy or Heineman, as ABB wasn't put on waivers)

Dobes > Primo.

Primo was pretty bad.

We should finally start to see lines tomorrow at practise and maybe some idea how the power play will do better than -1 for 30 attempts or
-3% on the PP.

That’s gotta be historic. They should make a banner for that.

Dobes > Primo.

Primo was pretty bad.

Primo will get moved, no need for a 3 goalies carrousel like last year until that happens.

Dobes > Primo.

Primo was pretty bad.

Maybe, but Primeau needs waivers, while Dobes doesn't. Dobes can go play starter in the A, while Primeau warms the bench behind Monty in Montreal.

Eventually Primo has to get in. Montanbo (who I am far from sure about) can't play all 82 games. They way he looked in pre-season leaves Habs very little chance to win. UNles they score like 6+ goals per game.
