I don't understand Caufield's positioning in the man advantage. He takes himself out of the play.
Matheson creates nothing from the point. He's just a play resetter.
Slaf should create more mayhem down low, that would get the opponent thinking and the habs could exploit that.
It's the hardware that isn't fast enough. That's why he makes the stupidest mistakes. He's not a smart hockey player.Agreed 100%
What is killing me is the ingrained hesitation in Matheson when he gets the puck, even with obvious options he gives the other teams coverage the edge by delaying and still going with the obvious pass.
Id like to see more reps with Suzuki getting the puck at the top of the circle on the right side and set him up for a wrister or cross crease in stride.
No one would be saying this if any of his gaffes ended up in the back of our net and there were more than two of them.Matheson played a great game outside of the PP.
He is a really good D man honestly, would be ideal leading a second pair.
Edit: Our whole D squad was solid outside Barron thinking about it.. Looking forward to some more Hutson all day every day
That’s a super-lazy take, bro. Matheson can’t QB a PP like Hutson can, irrespective of what game it is, 1 or 82.It’s game 1 man….nobody has a feel for anything, nobody is running on all cylinders except Monty…chillax, enjoy the W
Yup wouldn't surprise me even a little bit if Hughes re-signs Savard for a year or 2 if he haves a good seasonThey could easily re-sign him. We don't exactly have anyone to replace him at this point. He's a good veteran and wants to be here.
So much more gusto that it happened on Matthews’s first ever game as captain.First time in 220+ games leafs were shutout. Feels good man
Ahhh…watching the Oilers game, I see Gene Principe going for the wet dog look again with that greaseball hairdoo!
Or sign him for 2 more years.Savard had a monster game tonight. If he keep playing like this, Habs will get a 1st at the deadline.
Agreed. We can't do what Sens did the last few years. A bunch young talent without any good veterans in the lineup is a bad recipe. You need some good veterans around.Yup wouldn't surprise me even a little bit if Hughes re-signs Savard for a year or 2 if he haves a good season
His teammates love him and he said last season at the deadline that he didn't want to be traded because he and his family love Montreal and he really loves being a Hab. Great mentor for the young dmen.
I’m sure HuGo & MSL are very aware … it’s an inevitability, Hutson will organically assume PP QB role. I’d be shocked if it doesn’t happen by latest US ThanksgivingThat’s a super-lazy take, bro. Matheson can’t QB a PP like Hutson can, irrespective of what game it is, 1 or 82.

Of course they’re aware. My issue is leaving Matheson there because he’s the veteran. It’s dumb where as here, the rookie is just WAY better at it.I’m sure HuGo & MSL are very aware … it’s an inevitability, Hutson will organically assume PP QB role.
