Can't wait for him to return at LD. Our LD is so strong that we can trade Matheson for a top 4 RD.

allright so, obviously he is getting better and better at RD, what is the plan here? would he be even better if he was developed as an LD? Is there an NHL comp for a lefthanded defenseman playing on the right side at high level, obviously theres tons that play their offside on the 3rd pair but I feel there is not a lot that play their off side on the 1st pair?

Brodie but Guhle has a higher ceiling imo. Theodore is another one

allright, so its uncommon, but doable I guess! I am just wondering whats the plan, is he playing on the right side only until Matheson isnt there anymore? or maybe its just not a big deal at all for MSL ? he is playing real solid, but maybe he'd be even better on the left side?

I think they rotated.

All 3 regularly played 27-30mins a night

They didn't rotate but special teams played a large role in icetime. They would put Pronger and Niedermayer together at crucial points usually at the end of the game in the last couple of minutes.

Beauchemin certainly played less than these two when all 3 were healthy and was not in their class of dmen even though he was very good himself and one of the worst cuts that the Habs heve ever made.

Francois Beauchemin actually played more even strength minutes than both Prongs and Niedemeyer.

I remember being so disappointed when they lost Beauchemin. He was a great player for Hamilton.

It's funny how after crapping the bed for over a decade (for the most part) with questionable picks, Timmins (Bergevin) ended up having 3 very solid 1st round picks in a row right before they were canned...

2019- Caufield (15)
2020- Guhle (16)
2021- Mailloux (31)

Anyways, at this point I'm questioning whether Guhle's upside is actually higher than Sanderson's

Let me know if jake can play his off wing, first with a vet who sucks on defense, second with a calder-candidate.. eitherway, Guhle is our top 2 LHD. HUTSON is our 2LD and PP1..
