We all like Ev ans. He is a hard working bottom-six center. But at some point, Habs have to make space for Kapanen, Beck… and Hage in a not too far future.


He is indeed a very different type of player - forward or D-man.
Speak for yourself. I’ve never been a fan of Evans.

Close to 50? And here I taught 65+ was a realistic possibility for him.
He will get 50 in his sleep.

I know it’s lofty praise, but I don’t think Subban created as much every shift as Lane has so far.
I wish Lane had PK's shot, though.

That being said, he's just incredible. He creates a lot of scoring chances and he has so much hustle. I can't wait to see him and Demidov on the ice at the same time. Can you remember the last time Montreal had players like this?

He will learn. You gotta live with the rookies
Absolutely. There was also terrible attention to detail by forwards who weren't covering for #48 on his pinches. Tonight's lack of team defense looked like a bad beer league team full of selfish players.

We'll never be in position for meaningful games in March if this doesn't get cleaned up.

I know we're all excited to have a guy as skilled as Hutson on the team, but the cheering just when he touches the puck is a bit much imo. :laugh:

The Bell center fans need to chill about that one. We don't want Hutson to think he has to do something spectacular every time he touches the puck just to impress the fans. His game is flashy enough as is, I just want him to play his game and no worry about what WE think.

It’s fine, not an issue at all. Cheer all day long.

Subban was a physical beast, quick for his weight, and defensively sound. Don't let the post-trade propaganda campaign deceive you. The whole NHL was tilted against him and he still earned his reputation as a TopX dman for a god-damned reason.

Hutson played 24:45 tonight, only 6 seconds less than Matheson who played the most

Didn't expect him to log that kind of minutes so early, especially without PP1.

He certainly has MSL trust.

I'm cheering from my couch at home every time he has the puck. What do you expect , we have had a bottom 3 league wide entertainment product for like 15 years. Literally only Arizona and maybe Minnesota have iced more boring rosters with less skill than us during that span. Look it up. Its not pretty.
