GDT: Game 1/2- Habs vs Leafs Prospects - Sept 14- 1pm EST RDS1 & YouTube

[Rapala]

Love our special teams though...
Farrell and Mailloux with their best Keystone Cops imitation.

For some reason I doubt those would be the PKers we send out in normal situations.

Pittsburg sent TWO scouts?? they must be looking at who to ask for in that Crosby trade

we're so getting Letang.

 

[Jaynki]

holy crap Reinbacher looks awful, can't even close the gap.

He has an awkward style but he is incredibly effective man. Notice how quickly the puck is always moving up front. He is directly responsible for Beck goal. He is the one who ditched it to a completely open Sean Farrell.

Mesar for Poulin….

Let the trade talk begin

Hutson makes so moves that I have never seen in hockey.

Hard to explain what be does with his body

its almost like how a basketball player pivots but he doesn't need to worry about maintaining a dribble, so he can't be trapped once he commits to moving in that tight box. he's really strong at shifting position with as little movement on the ice as possible. I really think the 'Pat Kane but a Dman' is a pretty solid comparison when it comes to style.

If Thorpe can improve his skating and handling, he will have a great bottom 6 career. The shot is legit and he's having no problem being mean out there.

Unfortunately the deal is off they wanted Tuch but changed their minds.

 

[the valiant effort]

André Savard scouting for NJD seems so random. Must have jumped over with Shero?

Any time someone bashes Reinbacher like that, it's a total fan eye vs a coaches eye. Reinbacher is playing a great game. All of the little things he does adds up to little pressure in his own end and the puck consistently moving forward for the Habs.

100% agree

Justin Larose is a guy who should give as few interviews as possible.

He's earned himself another look after today, tho.

 

[LaP]

Reinbacher for a 4th, dump him while we can

Too late there so many scouts at this game everyone already know he's a bust we wont get more than a 5th round pick for him.

Yes, but it’s not sexy - I want to see him jump up in the play and show some offensive flair for a 5 OA

 

[Paddyjack]

There was doubt on the dev path, but to say HFHabs thought he was the worst 1st RD pick of all time is a stretch.

Yeah well, ok I remember that thread lol, but still, here it was greatly contested pick. And when Wright crapped the bed, then people were talking about Cooley because he had a good start, and then when he cooled off we started hearing about Nemec. And then thankfullt Slaf deblocked

Oh yeah, playing a great game.

Just no interviews. He sounds dumb

He's my favourite late-round prospect since he got drafted. Having that one outstanding tool puts him in a great position to find a role. Couldn't agree more.

 

[Asdetran]

Kinda pretty gross.

Reinbacher should have stood out more, Beck and Farrell should have stood out more, and Mailloux was a mixed bag. Mesar looks like he doesn't want to be there.

It's just one game, but none of those guys are going to make the team looking like that (except Hutson, he is perfect).

Hutson is that good??

 

[WeThreeKings]

Thats not what you're going to get. He was never going to be that player. At 5 OA if you have a defenseman who can control play and consistently put you on the attack, that's a huge win. Those guys are insanely valuable even if it isn't sexy to watch.

Ryan Suter sucks to watch play hockey but he was every bit worth a top 5 pick and is the type of defenseman every winning team has.

 

[Canadienna]

Hutson is that good??

Well okay he's not perfect but pretty darn close.

He looks great. Clearly enforcing his will out there.

I feel so bad for parents who are already coralling children at this event who then have to put up with a DJ blasting generic tunes at intermission.
