Still no Roy call up is pretty crazy to me. Newhook has been a complete disaster this year yet he's given unlimited chances in the top 6.

Maybe Roy isn't in the teams plan due to work ethic/attitude concern (just a theory). He isn't a HuGo pick after all, no strings attached.

Not directed at you, but I am beyond fed up with this work ethic excuse. Most of the guys on the team are mailing it in consistently. If they care so much about work ethic, they would have sent a message by waiving the likes of Dvorak/Armia and scratching Newhook. Hell even Slaf despite his production looks extremely disengaged so far this season.

Yes I don't disagree, just going from what I read on the board (maybe these are false rumors). But I have read he had a really bad attitude, not just lazy but un-coachable and self centered. Might be just BS.

He seems to be producing and working hard just fine in Laval. I agree though... work ethic excuse IS a BS, because 1/2 the team now or more consistently doesn't show up. And besides, don't we have the greatest motivator as our coach?
Sit Newhook, sit Dvorak - get Wawa and Tuch over here. Put Pezz in. Unleash Xhakaj. Let's kick some ass for once!
I really hope Hutson will take Dach's spot on PP1 tonight. Dach is simply not ready for that kind of role yet and MSL keeps sending him. He's hurting the already fragile team.

Slaf-Evans-Gally would be a better line, and I can't believe I am saying this.

So is Marc Bureau is there only for a day or did Habs have him engaged over a certain period of time?

Work ethic/attitude is trumped by scoring goals. What’s good for Michkov, is good for Roy. Unless he’s doing something illegal our second PP needs help.

Did he show too much emotion. ? Must scratch himSo what was wrong with more or less 2 lines working fine? Suzuki, Slaf, CC and Evans, Gally and Anderson?
MSL is going down the blender route now. And people say he can't adapt
Looks like Struble will sit this one out?

Yoooooooo first in something!
Gally can't keep up with the 2nd line workload anymore. He would have taken Newhook's spot there a long time ago if he was, might even play on the 1st line by now.

Sadly the forward lineup in the OP is our best possible combo right now - what a sad season this is going to be
