He should be on his way to LavalRoy cut? No way.
Has not shown anything in preseason

I don't even think he lost the top 6 spot. The rest of the team has been horrid and nobody has blown expectations and forced our hands besides Hutson.I don't agree. Roy will begin the season in MTL for sure. He maybe lost a spot on the top 6 for now.
Newhook has zero hockey IQ, Avs fans were right about that. He makes the wrong play with the puck most of the time, he creates nothing and ends the possession so often. He is a smaller version of Anderson, definately not a top 6 player.Was he objectively worse than, say, Newhook?

Who is mailman (I’m out of the loop)I'm beyond disappointed with Mailman. Clumsy outlet passes and getting caught out of position is not what I expected from him. Plus him not on the point in the PP tells me that MSL doesn't have confidence in him. Even tonight were he should be considered our most offensive defenseman, he's not qurterbacking the miserable PP.
I'm not a fan of MSL and he's no fan of Mailman.
Going to depend if he gets some productionI don't even think he lost the top 6 spot. The rest of the team has been horrid and nobody has blown expectations and forced our hands besides Hutson.
Kapanen may stay for a bit and play a couple of games but I doubt he stays here long.

He's not been playing with enough confidence. Hopefully wearing the C, and accumulating the minutes in Laval should help him acquire the experience he's lacking. I think Mailloux gets a callback at some point during the season, just not now with how Hutson performed.I'm beyond disappointed with Mailman.

Making fundamental clearing mistakes was frustrating to watch.He's not been playing with enough confidence.

I had him cut a number of days ago. They were always going to keep him up for load balance.I think you're right about Mailloux getting cut.
Initially I thought they were going to let him stick with the team so Reinbacher could get top minutes in Laval, but with him out of the picture I think they're going to give that seat to Mailloux again for the season.
Top speed is completely useless when you're unable to use it to separate yourself. To use your speed you need to be able to explode and Newhook just can't do it so he gets in tough spots and the play dies on his stick.I disagree. Did you watch him down the stretch ? He easily improved his decision making with and without the puck, which is why he was almost ppg for the last 12 or so games. Avs fans also said he wasn't fast which was one of the most ridiculous things ever said on these boards.
