How often is the secondary/tertiary scoring the silver bullet in a series. Plenty.

60% of the time it works all the time

I think they are both valid comparisons. Wouldn't mind having either of them.



Michkov played in it, so it wouldn't be unprecendented.

Didn’t they pull out of that anyway? I think they just played a weekend against Toronto and Ottawa last season? It wasn’t really a tournament. I think the more NA exposure he gets, the better.

What a pick!

Demidov has no business going to that rookie tournament and I suspect Habs management thinks the same.\

Or at least, I hope.

I fully expect him to be there. It will give other rookies an opportunity to see what they're up against. I believe internal competition through the development pipeline is essential to a winning culture down the road.

So do I...but this isn't what this is.

It's a couple of exhibition games against a group of players mostly made up of guys who will never make it to the NHL.

I'm all for development, but this ain't it.

You think our prospects being exposed to a player like Demidov in scrimmages, practices and exhibition games isn't beneficial to them? I 100% think it is and I'm fairly confident management does to. Demidov will be at rookie camp. Book it.

Still makes me laugh remembering The Sheriff as he described his little brother FloJak’s, fighting style, “the kids got anger issues” lol.

Only 2 seasons in the OHL and he is already this good in the AHL is very promising. 18 points in his last 24 games. He is fun to watch.

100%, I like that Florian and a lot of the young Habs are stating “I don’t want to cheat the game”…..they understand the 200 foot game and play with jam! Gonna be fun to watch these kids develop, cheers.

One of the best moves that no one talks about is Hughes bringing in Pascal Vincent...very impressed with him and his assistants.

Pretty crazy he's only 2 goals back of the team lead considering he's spent a lot of time on the 4th line. He's a guy who it is hard to put a ceiling on given how much he's improved over the last 2 years, one thing is for sure though is he'll be a welcomed addition to this team wherever he plays.

He has good hands, a shot with as much velocity as Beck, though he doesn't get it off as quickly, he's tenacious, can fight and he can score goals a few feet around the net thanks to his size and his style of play. He needs to add mass however. When he does he's going to be a handful.
