HATERS WHERE YOU AT?????????

 

[JackZap]

is he gonna play a couple of games this year?

 

[OnTheRun]

is he gonna play a couple of games this year?

Nothing confirmed yet, but since he's skating now it's very likely he will be ready to play before the NHL/AHL season end.

 

[Miller Time]

Watch him return for the last ~20 games of the year in Laval, then get the call up to the big team for the playoffs and step in with impact like PK did in his first NHL PO's

 

[Kobe Armstrong]

You can't wait a little? Are you at the fastfood drive-thru waiting for your order? Lol.

I just think it’s silly to say that Dach’s knee is better than ever and that his surgery wasn’t a big deal.

Dach can protect the puck with his body and deke, but his lateral mobility is bottom tier. Maybe he can get away with it as 2C but Reinbacher will need to rely on his pivots way more to play effective man to man defense in our system

Dach's knee injury was much more severe. His knee was tore in 2 places.

And then we woke up from our dream.

With Trudeau apparently having been injured last night against Utica, that Laval defence without Jacobs, is really slow and vulnerable. If Trudeau is out for any extended period, that team will need help on the back end. So if and when he is ready, Reinbacher would be a welcome and needed addition in Laval.

Trade him, there's too much risk and the reward is questionable

My reasons to trade him:

-Price screwed his name (1st reason)
-Fans wanted another player (2nd reason)
-Injuries
-Defenders are harder to develop
-He might not be ready for when the team is ready to compete, next year or even the next one
-We can use him in a package deal to get something good now that will help Hutson and the team immediately and for the following 3-4 years.

lol he’s right shooting top 5 pick d man. And 20 years old. What a stupid post.

Oh you're one of those guys that see him as a 5th OA pick, arent you?

And then you come here insulting other people's posts.

You're playing an intersting character sir

 

[bsl]

I’d say that’s closer to his floor.

If all goes well he’s a top pairing guy all day.

If the knees are fine he’ll be a top 4 all day. The only clear weakness I saw was defending against the rush.

Apparently he is very mobile. Gets on opponents fast. I really hope his skating is not damaged.

The Roy trade, the Leclair trade, the Chelios trade. Man we made some idiotic trades then. The Leclair trade may have been the best one lol. At least got the best return. Savard was washed more or less when we got him

The chelios for savard trade was the worst ever. But apparently there were internal problems with chelios. Still. Awful trade. I was really pissed at it. Just stupid. Habs should have got much more than a washed up former star. I hated the trade then. Still hate it now.

Oh you're one of those guys that see him as a 5th OA pick, arent you?

Not interested. Let’s talk hockey.

What evidence do you have that Kirby Dach has "bottom tier" lateral mobility?

I certainly don't see that watching him skate.

Is this for real?

One of those guys that 'see him' as a 5th OA pick? He is a 5th overall pick. What on earth are you talking about?

Oh but the irony

By no means am I suggesting that Savard for Chelios was a good trade, but I would heavily dispute the notion that Savard was washed up when he was acquired.

An enormous part of his drop in production with the Canadiens is the fault of Pat Burns.

Burns made idiotic demands on Savard and essentially demanded he stop doing all of the things that made him a special player in the first place.

The way Burns handled Savard would be like buying a Lamborghini Countach and then putting a snow plow on the front of it.
