Player Discussion Kirby Dach: Welcome to Montreal part 2

[SlafySZN]

Hello my friend

I thought you're gonna stop this nonsense Plekanec comparable.

late 20's but not like Plek.

Plekanec played 2 game in the NHL at 21-22. Then the lockout (which he would have probably played in the NHL probably) and he was a NHL regular after that at 23-24.

Plekanec had 46 pts in his first AHL season at 20-21 years old. Mysak has 3.

Mysak also plays on the 4th line, probably less than 10 minutes a night with absolutely zero offensive chances because Houle decided he wasn’t an offensive player before the season started. Not saying he would be as good as plekanec of course lol but you can’t look at Mysak’s stats sheet without context.

Mysak is a bottom-6 at best prospect.

He’s not in the same stratosphere Plekanec was in at the same age.

I’ve never said they were comparable or that he wouldn’t be a bottom 6 if he had to make it. What i said is that you can’t say Mysak has 3 points in 20 games without telling the context as to why.

 

[DAChampion]

Houle needs to play Mysak more.

Even if Mysak's ceiling at the NHL is a 4tg liner, better he average 15 points a year and not 5.

Yup. Mysak's injury riddled first AHL seasons close the book on things. Great observation.

 

[The Great Weal]

Would be nice if he had some linemates that didn't suck. At least he will probably play with Farell when his season ends.

Praying.
Give him Farrell and Ylonen,
Let em fly, see what happens

 

[Runner77]

He’d essentially be the Armia replacement..

Replacing Armia with nothing is already an upgrade.

That guy..................Capspace can take Yo-Elle's place.

 

[Captain Mountain]

Honestly think they should consider playing Caufield-Dach together for a bit consider how consistently Caufield-Suzuki get destroyed when Dach (or Monahan) isn't playing with them.

 

[Paddy17]

Meh... If he makes it to top 6 caliber NHLer, I think it would be moreso in his late 20's, like Pleks, rather than in the near future.

But Im sure he appreciates your optimism

You missed the joke.

 

[Miller Time]

You missed the joke.

Pot meet kettle

Yes absolutely, it's time to see Dach center Caufield for a couple games.

 

[FourQuarters]

Hopefully he's OK, not a good news for his birthday.

 

[The Great Weal]

Loving his game. I hope he gets even more comfortably physically. Would love a skilled 6'4 badass at center. Bedard and PLD can play on his wing next year.

 

[Hannibal]

Showing more and more meanstreak! God i love it.

Big, skill player with meanstreak. Been droiling for those for years.

 

[Jabba11]

I like this player a lot. Think we have a really good one here

[FourQuarters]

Only concern is, whether he's playing hurting now, and will out of long time after few games… like Monahan and CC.

Hope not

 

[KevSkillz4]

Dach show tonight that he have so much offensive upside, only 29 pts in 47 games that don"t show his actual play. He play better than 29 points... he should have 35 pts and more this year. Im a big fan of him!!

 

[Andrei79]

This is real asset management. You take a young defenseman with limited IQ and offensive skill, in a position of abundance and you trade him for a highly talented center, whos 6'4 and younger.

You dont trade one of the best PMD on your weakest side for a disgruntled soft winger and try to play him at center.

 

[Kudo Shinichi]

In hindsight, I would've given him the contract Carolina gave to KK lol

 

[Beaker]

I like what I’m seeing lately. It feels like he’s showing glimpses of what could be something special.

Yeah but Dach is smarter because he bet on himself lol at least we have a player with better confidence
