Superior teams have that effect!It'll be interesting to see what they do.
One of our problems against the Leafs in the past has been our inability to touch the puck.

Remember how Detroit use to keep their prospects in the AHL for about 200 AHL games? I know young talent helps with the Cap but you simply can't rush kids that aren't ready. I am a huge Mailloux fan but based on what I have seen neither he or Roy should start the year in Montreal. Why not let them develop a bit longer?Mailloux played 75 regular season OHL games in his career. He played 72 regular season AHL games last season. Despite his paltry OHL experience, he had a great offensive season in the AHL. People need to relax and stay patient. give him 2 more seasons in the A to learn.
I hope so. Prime Byron was faster, and once he learned to convert those breakaways, he was a useful and unique threat as well as a great penalty killer. If Newhook could develop unique (to the team) tools that reliably create goals, it would be great.I think Newhook can be an upgrade on prime Byron. Prime Byron was faster and really dangerous on the counter strike. But Newhook has more skill and may be our 3c, or at least a better option at C in case of injuries.
I agreee but I think Roy is a little bit further along than you surmiseRemember how Detroit use to keep their prospects in the AHL for about 200 AHL games?

I'm wondering what they are saying about Roy behind closed doors?Remember how Detroit use to keep their prospects in the AHL for about 200 AHL games?
