Way too early to tell. Being trusted with 15 minutes of ice time against the Washington Capitals at centre is a good start. Montreal has had a lot of guys who have proved hard work can get you from undesirable to, well, not undeniable but at least in an NHL roster. Glen Metropolit, David Desharnais, Paul Byron, Dale Weise, etc.
His biggest advantage is his speed. If he can stay fast and get smarter with the puck against advanced competition he might earn a spot on the club. If he doesn't? It only cost a roster spot.

That's why I said "Given his heart and soul". At this point in his career, he really doesn't have much left to give. You see spurts where you think he's still got it. Sadly they've now become few and far between.

the highlights looked like we were hanging on a bit a lot of the time and Monty kept us in, hard to tell from the clips.

Yep! And I'm pretty sure Sylvain Blouin dropped the mits that night too! What a Habs roster!

I believe most in here wanted Slaf to hone his skills in the minors but turns out staying at the NHL level was the right decision. It’s not always a hard and fast rule as development is not linear.
A main area of concern was how he was leaving himself vulnerable to incoming hits and was not sufficiently aware of game situations, getting sent to the dark room a few times. That seems to have gotten better this season.
He’s really started to pour it on, not from the start of this season but sometime in the first half and it hasn’t let up since. That’s such a welcome step up as the sky’s the limit for him and it’s still so early in his career.

The men in that clip were dancing by using shovels as props.
How can I can get them booked to perform at certain backyards in Atlantic Canada?

60 pt pace for Slafkovsky over the last 20 games.
For year 2 in the league, at 19, that's a pretty great pace to be on. If he finishes the year between 35-50 pts, I think we could all be very happy with that especially if we pace for when the switch 'flipped'.

Logan "bpa" Cooley : 6G 25P
Bustkovsky : 9G 22P
One is a bust the other is a surefire elite player +++ in the making.

They had a really good crop of prospects towards the end of koivu's run in Montreal.

All busted and were out of the NHL within 4-years of his departure from Habs - Komisarek, Higgins, AKos, SKos, D’Agostini, O’Byrne…. only the last pick of the 2003 draft carved out an NHL career qualifying for longterm pension bonus (Halak)

Close to 40 points for a big guy ay 19 is pretty damn rare honestly. If he can do that it's going to be very positive. And it's not only about the point he is already dominant physically despite not having the muscle of a full grown adult yet. I played hockey enough to know that at the same size guys under the age of 21 are easier to move than guys in their prime at 24+.

He isn't in the future plans of the Habs and also, with so many young D-men there has to be times when players sit and watch games.

Pearson at this point is simply a body to help ice a roster. He carved himself out a decent career, was part of a Cup champion but he is done. I truly wish him well.

There was also Grabovski, McDonagh, price subban, and pacioretty towards the end of his tenure.
Some promising guys will bust in this crop of prospects too. That's just part of it.

Not sure if anyone comes calling to have that 13th -14th player for a run, but ya no one is giving him a contract next season, can't see it happening.

Somebody ought to call the cops on Montembeault cause he's steeling points that son of a bitch.
Another strong game from him,if not for him it would not have had that outcome.
Still remember all those saying he was a nothing but he keeps proving them wrong.

I didn't believe in him at all.. but he keeps adding more and more to his game.
He will eventually get usurped but in today's goaltending landscape, the Habs at least have a competent tandem goalie.

Don't think so because of the contract. But even if the contract would be better he would be worth a 7th round pick probably.

And at the same time getting dumped on from
That is not saying much,the game was lifeless. Montreal still has 30 games left and if this game was representative of the rest of the season,it will be a tough watch.
