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

[Grate n Colorful Oz]

Will be interesting to say the least

Might give a second breath to Quebec players, seeing how the Q is such a wasteland nowadays

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

It’s now official…

Is this just CHL players that haven't signed a contract?

 

[red devil]

Shesterkin signed?

Michkov has logged 21+ min 3 times already. I don’t think Torts is out to get the kid. There really is nothing wrong with having a seat in the press box multiple times a year for any player in their first few seasons.

Yes, only CHL players who haven't signed their ELCs.

I read on the mains if the flyers figure he needs a stint in a league other than the NHL he can go right back to KHL and bypass the AHL?

He’s their 2nd leading scorer. Maybe Torts should try to actually coach him by communicating and taking 1 on 1 time with him.

I bet...that he's been trying to communicate with him and coach him since day one of training camp.

The deal between SKA and the Flyers has a clause that Michkov can't be send to AHL, it's NHL or KHL.

Well i hope he figures it out in the nhl for the flyers sake

 

[HuGort]

Connor McMichael is having a great start.

It was not a linear development path... Good thing they were patient with him.

Beck is similar player

According to the main board, he already has. He's apparently already better than Bedard.

Honestly, I saw someone qualify his game against the Habs as very good. I had to double check if he really wrote that because he was complete ass during that game. A lot of posters here are unreliable.

Sabres up 5 on the Rangers

Man if he was drafted by the habs and followed the exact same trajectory it would be disgusting here. Coach is ruining him, turning him into a grinder, possibly xenophobic etc. Cant say I'm sad to see the cult of michkov humbled a bit.

Different framing of the situation. Carlsson was framed as load management coupled with more time to train at the gym, to add to his massive frame.

IMO Michkov will (should?) be fine.

Ana never “scratched” him - it was reported Verbeek and his agent had a load management plan in place before the season even started as to when he’d be rested & when he’d play

Didn't Torts say openly that they also have a development plan? So yes maybe it's not as explicit as Anaheim, but I don't see how it's bad for development if your rookie, who is not playing well at 5v5, would sit one game in the pressbox.
