Lekhonen can't score but he has the exact same number of goals as Danault.

Lekhonen and Danault are the exact same kind of players, players that aren't great at anything, but good enough defensively.

Then if Danaults not moving, two of Domi, KK and Poehling need to be moved. They need to make a f*cking call once in their life.

No balls POS management.

What about Drouin? The former CHL Player of the year could be Daigle 2.0 in Ottawa...

Anyway, crazy to think Lehkonen and Danault have the same amount of goals. Maybe I'm wrong, but by the eye test, Lehkonen shoots a lot more. It makes him look worst. Missed golden opportunities numerous times.

 

[The Great Weal]

Yes we all know Lekhonen is like the offspring of Pol pot and Pinochet for you.

Not just me, even Julien who loves Lehkonen knows he's absolutely useless offensively.

 

[NobleSix]

Big fail by Bergevin. Could have picked up a 6th or something. We need more darts at the draft because quantity>quality!

Him being off the powerplay would be better than any shitty draft pick we could ever hope to get in return.

But yes, Bergevin is quite the clown.

 

[Habs10Habs]

Sadly, it's not a matter of when Poehling is ready, but if.

I"m still positive with Poehling. I think his one game of a life time kind of messed him up. Maybe had him thinking he was further ahead than what he really was. My guess is he'll be ready to seriously battle for a bottom 6 role next year.

 

[Mrb1p]

An argument can be made that KK was rushed. Even though I thought he did well last year. IMO mentally he was ready, but I didn't think he was physically quite ready.

Thats where you missed the part where I said

If a player can handle his role and is allowed to grow by his coach, he'll grow.

KK wasn't good enough for the league so he was used int he wrong role and when he showed he could handle a little bit more he didn't get anything, and whenever he made a mistake, instead of growing from them, he got hit on the head.

Hughes - Weber
Sergachev - Petry
Chiarot - Fleury

Don’t do stuff like that again please, i will ignore you!!

Idk I'd rather just keep everyone in Laval. I'm happy that Evans got called up because he deserves it, but would have been happier if he was there helping Laval make the playoffs.

 

[Kriss E]

Not a fan of waiting for players to push out a player. You need to make a call, if its gonna be KK, its KK, if its gonne be Danault, its Danault, if its gonna be Poehling, its poehling.

Waffling around doesn't work, never worked, never will.

That depends. A minimum level of play is required before placing a player in a certain position.
I don't think KK ever reached it. Glad he's in the AHL. I'd likely keep him there to start next season too.

 

[FerrisRox]

Did Brett Kulak switch back to #17 or did he keep #77?

It just means Lekhonen gets more opportunities to score than Danault.

 

[The Great Weal]

It just means Lekhonen gets more opportunities to score than Danault.

Lehkonen gets more chances to score than many players, yet here we are with him being bad offensively.

The problem wasn't KK being in the NHL, it was him being used as a grinder with limited play time all year.

 

[NobleSix]

No lead is safe with this trash team lol

But hey, we're going all in for the playoffs next season with the same group!

 

[CristianoRonaldo]

Kept 77.

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

Price had no idea where that puck was.

 

[The Great Weal]

If only our home record could match that of the Bruins, because other than that, we are identical.

 

[Habs10Habs]

Yes we all know Lekhonen is like the offspring of Pol pot and Pinochet for you.

lol not quite. I just think he's a good bottom 6 player. So if I had a choice between those 3 players. I would keep Lehkonen. Since I don't think Drouin is needed, and I think Danault can be replaced by either Poehling or KK. Or if he keeps improving, maybe Evans.

 

[NobleSix]

Idk I'd rather just keep everyone in Laval. I'm happy that Evans got called up because he deserves it, but would have been happier if he was there helping Laval make the playoffs.

No arguments from me on any of that. Just another wasted season in Habs land.

 

[Mrb1p]

What does that tell you about him ?
Is he being carried offensively and if a better player was in his spot, the player would score ? Then put Gallagher there.
Is he really good at pushing the play up ice but bad offensively ? Same as Danault.

 

[zx81]

Pretty typical home game.

 

[ole ole]

Price had no idea where that puck was.

How about we get a goalie that isn't on his knees on EVERY shot.

 

[Apoplectic Habs Fan]

Bad, boring hockey.

Thanks Marc

 

[ahmedou]

Yet f***ing again...

Just have to play better at home and its a done deal, we’re in!!

 

[NobleSix]

guys we just need more luck then this team will become the Bruins
