HF Habs: Out Of Town Thread: 2024 Off-Season edition

[Paddyjack]

I’m still crying over Claude Giroux.

Heck, I’m also still crying over my 1st edition Charizard card that I traded away in 1999.

Could be worse, at leat you didn't put it in your bike's wheel like all of us old farts did with the vintage 70's hockey cards, maybe even Gretzky's....

Harley had nearly 50 pts last year, if that wasn't 'breaking out', what is?

I thought McTavish had his breakout season last year? But I guess 42 pts in 60ish games isn't good enough for Fantasy hockey.

I'm surprised Carlsson isn't on the list.

So @ReHabs, look up and tell me again it's the anti-Michkov who never stop

Why are you tagging me?

If you haven’t seen the deluge of the other Michkov comments that’s your problem I think.

 

[Scintillating10]

Dave Babych was a good 2 OA, even with his -62 as a rookie.

Michkov going to be 100 point. What I meant. Been lethal with Demidov. Most firepower Habs ever had, or in last 55 years. I understand Reinbacher steady eddy. Which is good thing. But hands not there. A smidgen slow discussion making with puck. Cross between a Pesce and Richard Matichuk.

Because you seem to think the people saying stop talking about michkov are the ones who keep bringing him up. They say that in response to the endless deluge of posts from the michkov fangirls.

 

[FLHabs]

Y'all remember ppl in here wishing they had drafted Logan Cooley over Slaf? Good times

“It’s fine if my guys do it! We do it for the right reasons!”

Just stop.

Cooley’s been great and he’s poised to be even greater. The story isn’t over. We can be glad + satisfied with Slafkovsky but Cooley is legit.

No Kotkaniemi?

Oh this will be back as soon as Slaf has a drought.

 

[sandviper]

Why are Habs fans like this. Why is this tolerated?


Very happy about the summer and Demidov and even Reinbacher. We shouldn’t permit or encourage other fellow fans drag us down when they insult other prospects who’ve done nothing wrong.

Hope this helps

For sure, I’d much rather tear down and bash our own players

Is it an either/or option for you? Is that how you see things?

Telling you to shut up about michkov is not the same as you endlessly pining for him.

Michkov OT winner, just if you guys want to feel even worse about tonight lol

6 pts in 3 preseason games sigh.

 

[Riggins]

I think management seriously underestimated how tough it would be on Reinbacher developing under these circumstances. I guess they thought they had 3 years before Michkov would even see NHL ice. Here we are a year later and Michkov is going to be ripping it up and the average Habs fan will watching on and looking at Reinbacher thinking about the one who got away.

Agreed, especially now that he’s injured, if he sits out for a few weeks and Michkov starts the season on fire he’ll have plenty of time to hear/see it all. Habs social media fanbase is wild as he already knows, he got a taste on his draft night lol.

We’ll see what Reinbacher is made of. He could use this as a fire to bust his ass and make sure he becomes the best version of himself to shut up the critics or he could let it all get to him and sink. Not easy being a top pick Habs prospect.

I think in the last draft video, Bobrov is telling one of the kids (I think Sawyer?), you can’t hide in this market, are you ok with that?

 

[ViD]

Will the Habs fans boo Michkov in Montreal ?

Not his fault Canadiens management was dumb AF to pass on him.

 

[Kimota]

I feel that Michkov is gonna come back haunting this management.

 

[Habitant#1]

I still think the bigger mistake was not Reinbacher > Michkov, but being in that position in the first place.
They could've tanked harder and got Smith/Fantilli/Carlsson

I don’t pine after Michkov. Pipe down.

the average Habs fan isn't an obsessive, petty draft nerd, so I doubt it
