GDT: Preseason game #2 Habs vs Devils 7PM ET RDS

[Lshap]

Mailloux looking great one moment and AHL-level the next.

Why so my friend?

Because the person in charge of the PP was a non-coach and it’s still a non-coach

Also Matheson isn’t Hutson. For a guy who skates so well, he’s very static with the man advantage.

 

[SannywithoutCompy]

Hutson will be on PP1 within 10 games

 

[Apoplectic Habs Fan]

Matheson in regular season PP form

 

[McGuires Corndog]

I hope Matheson will learn how to make a pass before the season starts.

He can’t pass to his right. Seriously.

 

[Canadienna]

Putting the puck on Slafkovsky's stick should be a priority on the PP. Why waste him in the bumper spot?

 

[zx81]

Same f***ing ugly pp as last year. Hopefully Laine and Hutson will help

 

[vokiel]

Maybe next year if he cleans up his defensive game.

Nah, he needs to make his mistakes in the NHL, otherwise he won't progress not doing them in the AHL.

He's physically imposing enough to lace them up and hold a spot for at least 15 minutes a game easily.

Matheson in regular season PP form

Has he made a bad pass?

The definition of a green player

 

[HabSgt]

I assume it was done during the commercial break and then replayed

Possibly, then I sit corrected. Still would have been funny if we had scored while they were playing it.

Too bad nobody will shoot and they don't even take a pass ready to shoot.. Suzuki with a chance for ashot on net from 10 feet away and he passes.

BUT THE PASSING!

 

[McGuires Corndog]

Has he made a bad pass?

He’s also notoriously bad at not making a pass to a player that’s wide open.

 

[Apoplectic Habs Fan]

Has he made a bad pass?

Slow to move the puck and fumbling.

Great skater, not a PPQB

There's no rush and given his lack of playing time over the past couple of years, another year in Laval will be great for him.

I’ll raise you the point man as a « problem »

Lol you ninja editor!

Mailloux looking great one moment and AHL-level the next.

Also very Brisebois like.

 

[Skip Bayless]

Reinbuster is like a vet out there.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

I'm not sure if he'd be a long-time NHLer, but if Trudeau came to the Habs like 4, or 5 years ago he'd likely be a semi-regular player for them until they got better/deeper.

If he doesn't make it here, hopefully he does with his next team.

And by make it, I mean play a handful of games a year maybe

 

[McGuires Corndog]

Reinbuster is like a vet out there.

Definitely looks good so far tonight

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Slow to move the puck and fumbling.

Great skater, not a PPQB

I did notice on one play he was too slow to notice the open man. Either that or he fumbled the puck and by the time he got control it was too late.

 

[Kennerback]

Also very Brisebois like.

We already have Matheson in the Brisebois role. Two is too much.

 

[Vachon23]

Not surprised that the PP looks just as atrocious this year as it did last

So Burrows wasn’t the problem ?

 

[Redux91]

I really can't believe people don't see what Reinbacher will bring to this team

Let Hutson be the flash and sizzle on Offense and PP
Let Reinbacher shutdown top lines transitions

Also very Brisebois like.

True in both cases, but unlike Brisebois, Mailloux is still improving.

Lol you ninja editor!

I still think we should play with 2 guys at the point...2 D specifically
