Because it means that the centre is not good enough offensively. Look. This is ridiculous. Danault is a decent third line C. Playing on the top 2 lines. Which has been happening with Habs for ten ****ing years. Maybe more. People are just pissed off at this and rightly so. It's not Danault's fault. But that doesn't mean we have to think he's a good 2C. Give it up. Have some freaking standards.
I'm tired so may be misunderstanding.
You're calling the Boston d out as terrible by calling them clowns, right? Is this a backhand complaint about Montreal's offence?
One turned 18 in AugustDanault 24 games 1 goal 13 assists Average time 17:40/game plays with gallagher/Tatar
Kotkaniemi 24games 3 goals 9 assists average time 13:55/game plays with Lekhonen(lol) Agostino(lolx2) and Armia.
1 is 18 year olds
1 is 25 year olds
Who got more skill to score a ****ing goal
dont @ me
lol.I love arguing against dumb fans that have ''lol no'' as their main argument.
Why the panic? Why the "Oh! The humanity" cries? REBUILD. Perspective.
1 goal in 24 games for a center playing on the top 2 lines is major suckage. 'Get a clue'. LOL
Huh? The guy is a really good 2nd pair D man. He makes good plays all the time both on D and O if you take the time to watch him carefully. I want him traded for a really good pick. Otherwise he's the least of my worries.I'd trade Petry for... whatever. Never liked that glorified plug.
Not very good on the ice lately either.
This is an 82 point team. No more, no less. We're just back to stuck in neutral instead of historically bad. No tank, no playoffs. Just existence.
In your perfect world where a 2c is a 60-65 pts guy and a 3c is a 40pts guy, sure Danault is below average. I live in a realistic world where a team can't always have two great Cs on it.
2015-2016 was an 82 point season for Montreal. 38-38-6 record. We also ranked 9th worst. Those things are not exclusive.Back to stuck to neutral?
You realize in the bergevin era, we've either been a 100+ pt team or a bottom 9 team?

During those shifts he has been though. Domi stays on the wing after the faceoff is taken. So they've been switching.That doesn’t mean he’s a centre.

1 stat doesn't define anything. He was on pace for 50 points heading into the game tonight.
Danault has 14 points the same as Oshie, Zajac, konecny, Kovalchuk, Flippula, Okposo, Tropcheck, and one more than Simmonds, Colin White, Nick Foligno, Brayden Schenn, Werenski, Clayton Keller, Reilly Smith (playing with Marchessault and Karlesson), and two more than Duclair, Toffoli, the great Lars Eller, Patrick Marleau, Niedereitter, Jake Debrusk, Jake Virtanen, Jimmy Vesey, Jordan Eberle, Silverberg, Jordan Staal, Adam Henrique, David Perron, Brock Boeser, Charlie Coyle, Tyler Bozak, Michael Backlund, Artem Anisimov, Frans Nielson, Derek Stepan, etc... etc...
I guess all those players suck based on 1 stat.
Danault has sucked the last few games, not the whole season. Big difference.
LOL. Take a look at my post below on stats. Do you even watch other games? Other team's players?Denying facts with bad arguments when your narrative no longer works. Danault is a solid offensive player while being a solid 5v5 defensive player. That makes him a second liner. And I don't think any NHL teams are really scared from a 2C apart from Malkin and Tavares
