Development Camp 2022 (July 10th-13th)

[Adam Michaels]

Is there going to be an intra squad game today?

I don't know. All that is listed on the Habs' official release about the schedule for camp is that yesterday, today, and tomorrow, it's "Both groups on both ice surfaces."

Man look at that ass usage by slaf, nice puck protection

Eh. Long way to the NHL. Thats Kapanen, who couldnt do that to anyone in Liiga.

 

[KevSkillz4]

Slafkovsky and Mesar are very skilled player.

Beck, Kapanen, Heineman and Hutson looks pretty good too.

 

[morhilane]

Yeah, Kap is really handing it to him lol.

Nurmi too from what I saw, so kind of a Liiga reunion I guess.

 

[Kennerback]

Slafkovsky is visibly the Alpha at the camp.

 

[Mrb1p]

Enqvist with the nifty mitts

 

[Nedved]

These drills help develop the quick decision making.

you also see who is already at that level their looking for in these drills. A few standouts.

 

[HABitual Fan]

I mean, he did sign an AHL contract, so of course they know where he'll be playing.

could be in 3R too, only the contract is with Laval, no guarantee for him to play there

 

[KevSkillz4]

Slafkovsky worth a 1st overall pick without a doubt. What a skillset he have. The tools of him are very impressive. It's juste scrimage, but he already show more than Galchenyuk and KK at this scrimage. This guy have underrated hockey IQ, high hockey IQ. Great shooter and great playmaker.

 

[Whitesnake]

Engstrom is fun to watch. Davidson much less.

He literally did nothing

 

[Karma Police]

what a pass by Hutson

 

[Mrb1p]

Engstrom sure is skilled. Never actually realized he had such hood hands.

 

[Whitesnake]

Let just say that Slaf offensively...no issues today. Slaf defensively....ouch. lol.

 

[Goldenhands]

The pace is crazy!

 

[Mrb1p]

Tuch with the big boy moves. Nice to see.

 

[KevSkillz4]

He literally did nothing

You don't see the 3v3 like? He did skillz over skillz one time at one moment. This guy is fun to watch even if it's juste pratice.

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

They're sure making them burn those calories . I don't remember the camps being that high tempo.

 

[Yoshidas Island]

Engstrom, Dube, Heineman have all stood out in a positive way for me so far

 

[Karma Police]

Impressed by Mesar up tight. Silky mitts, nice blade play to switch direction and gets involved

 

[ForeverHabs97]

excited to see how Hutson turns out he is that good you guys were right

 

[Mrb1p]

Mesar what an animal

 

[Natey]

MA Godin mentioned in his article that Heineman told him that he is still under contract with Leksands. And Godin got the impression that Heineman might not be interested to play in Laval. That he will try to make the Habs out of the camp or go back to SHL. Heineman didn't flat out say it, but from his comments, Godin got that impression.

What Montreal could try to convince Heineman to stay is if he starts in Laval, he has the opportunity to earn a call up and get to the NHL this year. Whereas if he goes back to Sweden, he won't be able to play NHL until next year.

I'm good with his outlook. NHL or SHL.

Luckily, defending can be taught.

Yep, his inside game is very good and he has the stop and go speed to get there. Thats why he was drafted. Reminds me of Pleky so much.
