[Habs]

Thank God. Probably the worst defender I've seen in a Habs jersey.

With you overreactions, and mine, we could have lots of fun over beers watching this shitshow of a franchise in a pub

Mailloux was sent down because there is no room at the moment, simple as that. He is ready for the NHL. Huston is a wonderful defensive play maker, but will for the rest of his career be a defensive liability as a defenseman, need to matched with excellent defensive defenseman. The Canadians do not have that yet or in there system. Matheson and Savard need to go , Guhle is solid and is locked up. As for the rest 2 years of NHL time to see who is NHL capable.

Logan showed good things, his time will come


Why can't the Habs have both LD Hutson and RD Mailloux on the future top 6 D?

I think that’s the plan/hope.

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

He has the offensive skill/talent but defensively this is Marc Andre Bergeron level. I feel like one day they missed a dman in his pee-wee day and he played that position and they forgot about him since

The skills he has are hard to teach whereas defense can be taught.

 

[Yep]

I'm not a stat nerd, but that can't be good...

Someone posted a graph of expect goals for/against and Mailloux was all alone, very far away from every other players on the league.

So yeah, not good.

hes like 10 years behind defensively tho

I'm starting to agree with Snake on this guy. I don't think Mailloux is that smart.

He looks brutal right now. Reminds me a lot like Bouchard. Great tools especially the shot, but questionable IQ. Bouch improved alot over the years playing with ekholm. Mailloux has just as high a ceiling I think

IQ is the only thing that seperates Nhlers from Ahlers nowadays.. all are excellent skaters and players.. so what is the difference? It's the ability to process the game at high speed - that is all..

Let's take a look at Mailloux.. hes a 1st rounder who made a BONE HEADED decision in his junior years. While I never really thought it was that big a deal (shoot me), the reality is the whole ordeal was so stupid it really make you question his IQ..

The game itself has evolved beyond Athleticism.. truly. 30 years ago a dim-whitted loser with speed could circumvent the IQ flaws.. no longer..

So now the question becomes, is this a player we are going to invest millions for the CH to improve and ultimately chase a Stanley Cup Run? If he lacks IQ (a la Deangelo) then we have to trade him asap..

I trust Hugo knows this, so I will wait with bated breath.
