HF Habs: Out of Town Thread: 2024-2025 season

[Tyson]

Michkov brings more to the table than Bedard.

He is the true 1OA of 2023.

You may be right and I am serious. 2 points today at even strength. 9 points.

 

[JoelWarlord]

I really questioned Nashville offseason choices. Just because you have attractive conditions to recruit players doesn't mean you should just go out and spend the money. I think trotz showed some inexperience in that respect.

I think they made some questionable investments, but they will not be this bad when it's all said and done. You do sometimes see an adjustment period when you make a couple significant additions to the core in one offseason.

The Skjei contract was honestly the biggest head scratcher for me. Stamkos & Marchessault also risk given their ages but at least you're adding firepower in the short term and Stamkos helps you get your fans hyped. Committing to Skjei for 7 years as their #2D just didn't really make much sense to me.

Boy did we ever bottle the 2023 draft. What a mistake passing on Michkov. Reinbacher was such a waste of a pick.

That cannot be determined yet. What if Reinbacher turns into a top pairing D?

 

[le_sean]

Michkov has a nice added advantage of having played in a men’s league before. Let’s hope Demidov takes off running as a rookie next season too.

 

[Team_Spirit]

Habs bleed goals from the blue line with traffic in front and it seems to be Michkov speciality so far in the NHL.

Habs roll into Philly tomorrow

Habs did NOT want him. Whether the reasons turn out to be valid is to be determined.

 

[Yasuo]

Main board gonna explode if Michkov score an hatrick tomorrow

Wait until this kid figures out the NHL.

 

[McGuires Corndog]

And what if Montembeault is the next Carey Price and Barron is the next Markov? Hint….it ain’t going to happen

Reinbacher was projected to be a top pairing rd by most teams. That is why a lot of teams wanted him. He likely will be unless injuries derail him.

He's a top 5 pick, so your examples are incredibly bad. You have no idea how Reinbacher is going to turn out. I wanted Michkov, but this pretention of being omniscient and knowing how he will turn out is completely puerile.

2nd pairing d by Kent Hugues that dont run a PP. thats whats he said when he drafted him.

Such a waste.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Why? He plays center no? He's probably taking minutes on the 4th line.

Plays just under 13 minutes 5 on 5 and just over a minute on the pp, so 3rd line and 2nd pp duties it would seem.

Such a waste.

MICHKOV WANTED TO GO TO PHILLY, THAT'S WHY HE WENT AND MET WITH THEM IN PHILADELPHIA WHILE HE DIDN'T MEET WITH ANYONE ELSE LIKE THAT.

There, hopefully people can f***ing read that and stop saying stupid, idiotic shit over it.

If you're such a big fan of Michkov, you should know this, but apparently people aren't, but like to be.

 

[the valiant effort]

I can’t believe Yoel Edmundson keeps chugging along lol

And what would you be saying if it was Michkov who tore his ACL? Kind of unfair to Reinbacher

2nd pairing d by Kent Hugues that dont run a PP. thats whats he said when he drafted him.

Such a waste.

To temper expectations. He’s not going to say "yeah he’s a 1D who will turn around our franchise". Note he didn’t say this about Demidov or Hutson either even though they are both elite talents.

He DID not say 2nd pairing. He said #2 defeseman - 1st pair.

Early season hot takes look great again this year. Remember when Buffalo was 0-3 and every laughed. They are now 4-4-1. Doesn't mean anything season is still young but still funny.

They are alot better than people think. They may have finally turned the corner.

You are out of your field. Anthony Martineau said he met with habs the day of the draft. As other teams.

That rumors about only wanting to go to Philly id fabricated to control the narrative.
