lol I love learning new words.

Hutson is the best player on the ice.

 

[sansabri]

So is this the flyers B team? C team?

B- team

 

[The Great Weal]

Kinda slow, but he has such a great sense of what's happening on the ice. Really high IQ. If he was more athletic, he'd be a great, great player

The Toffoli comparison is always appropriate, but he reminds me of Suzuki's early days a lot. He's got an awesome shot too but not expecting his current linemates to set him up.

So is this the flyers B team? C team?

B team, like us. Yes they suck. Couturier is there, Deslauriers, Laughton, Brink, Ristolainen, Zamula, Foerster, etc. Legit NHLers

 

[Justin11]

I really like Dobes’ positioning and tracking of the puck. His size is also very impressive.

 

[ChikN]

Roy will learn a lot from Suzuki. Similar styles.

lol I love learning new words.

I've played way too many video games I already knew this one and exactly what he was saying with it lmao

 

[OneSharpMarble]

Am I reading this right? 4 goals and not 1 point from our top line?! What are we paying these scrubs for?

 

[Sagikev]

We need a goal from Laine! Bell Centre would explode (I would as well, yes it's a sexual joke)

 

[Habs10Habs]

I love that Roy is playing as if a top 9 spot for him is guaranteed. Newhook should be looking over his shoulder.

rare charles prevost linton reference

 

[salbutera]

I really like Luke Tuch game, he's such a strong player, he's going to play some game in the NHL this year.

I expect he’ll force his way into Habs lineup in 2nd half the way Struble did last season

 

[Redux91]

LOL
Laine looks like he's turning it over, nope
Steal, deke, somehow gets a shot off, off the MASK lol

 

[HabSgt]

So if this is rusty Laine I cannot wait for smooth in-the-zone Laine.

 

[Stive Morgan]

Just got home from dinner

Glad to see everyone seems to be getting involved.

 

[morhilane]

Laine shooting % is going to be like 2% this season.

 

[MarkJ]

rare charles prevost linton reference

the curse is OVER!

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

So if this is rusty Laine I cannot wait for smooth in-the-zone Laine.

What's a Rusty Laine ?

 

[FLHabs]

B team, like us. Yes they suck. Couturier is there, Deslauriers, Laughton, Brink, Ristolainen, Zamula, Foerster, etc. Legit NHLers

Martone\Hagens - Michkov gonna be a problem lol

 

[The Great Weal]

Roy will learn a lot from Suzuki. Similar styles.

If he follows what Suzuki did to improve his athleticism he'll be a 70 point player no doubt about it. The IQ, puck protection, shot, and hands are all top notch.

 

[overlords]

What's a Rusty Laine ?

sounds like something you shouldn't look up on urban dictionary

 

[417]

Hutson may not be but but he's pretty strong for his size and knows how to position his body to win pucks.

I don't see how he won’t make this team, he's one of their 6 best Dmen quite comfortably (which at this point might be more of an indictment)

 

[durojean]

I do feel like the best line up we have is

Caufield Suzuki Slaf
Armia Dach Laine
Roy Newhook Gallagher

 

[Sagikev]

We haven't seen Barron too much. Good news lol
