Johnny on the spot Saturday, great rush goal tonight. I woulda had him out for the 6-on-5
I would be interested in having him move up with Dach and Armia, and turn that line into a pure cycling possession approach with Hutson-Guhle running it from the blue line.
He looks like the player we saw in his first pre-season with the habs. Such a great shot and release.What a bright spot he is becoming after a lackluster preseason. If he keeps this up he will be pushing our top 6.
I find he had a very vanilla camp. But he's been great so far (outside the Bruins game, which was a bad one).But HF told me he was a AHL plyer!?!
It may happen but maybe not right away. Don’t forget, he gets different opportunities on the 4th. Just putting him on the 2nd doesn’t always mean he’ll produce. If he can adjust, I think he’d be good there. That line certainly needs a shooter. I like Armia’s board game, but he’s not known for being a shooter. They really need that line to get going.I'd rather Heineman take Armia's spot.

I get it but that doesn’t always work. He might gel with them, he may not. Talented rookies have been put on top lines before and they don’t always produce. I do think it’s worth a shot though. Anderson too. He’s been playing hard. Heineman might have more hockey sense though. Anderson is still a bull in a china shop.Not to produce but just because the speed and shoot first mentality will help.

He's playing his game now. Last year, he was playing timid when he got a few games, and he was also off due to injuries. He appeared slower than when he fist arrived in Laval the year before. Perhaps he put on too much weight... I don't know. All I'm sure of, is that we're seeing the real Emil Heineman play this year.he seems way stronger this year
