GDT: Preseason Game 3 - Laval Rocket+ vs Leafs 7PM EST Sportsnet & RDS

[le_sean]

Newhook has been struggling all preseason so far. Not a good camp for him

Thought he looked fine with Dach and Laine. He plays a specific role and to be the 3rd best player on a 2nd line is a good spot for him.

 

[FLHabs]

You go first


He played well with his real line the other night

I think he can be better though. He was kind of the weakest link on his line with Dach and Laine

 

[Naslundforever]

Habs drafted Demidov!

Msl icing the kids to shut us all up lol

 

[zx81]

This game may make decisions a bit easier..at least to justify.

 

[Redux91]

That was the best offensive season for a Montreal Canadiens in 11 years and remained the best until last year

 

[CHwest]

Yeah Engstrom never going to do that again lol

Start playing against a higher caliber the game gets faster, happens to all young players. Some adjust some cannot process fast enough.

 

[Kobe Armstrong]

I think Heineman had a good shift but that was about it

 

[OneSharpMarble]

I am shocked this game isnt a total blowout, they are doing pretty good against almost a full good NHL team.

 

[CristianoRonaldo]

Xhekaj and Hutson both to Laval if it was up to me.

Xhekaj is overrated...

 

[Rapala]

Turnovers at their blueline is killing us.
Beck had one but I'll cut him a break his line has been playing 4v5 all game long.

 

[Trabdy2]

All of our D men have made mistakes tonight. Some have cost us more than others. But it's best to make these mistakes in preseason and the AHL and learn from them.

 

[HabSgt]

On sépare les hommes des enfants ce souère. I love the way this camp is going. Going as planned. Not many spots left with the big club for now, more to come during the season. For now, let them have fun in Laval and learn how to be pros.

Stop being reasonable you, this is HFHabs.

On lâche les patates icitte.

Not sure you're on the same thread as me. I would think we are getting molested tonight.

 

[PhysicX]

Hutson will be a headache for Robidas and St. Louis to coach. Always wants to go forward, thank god Therrien ain't the coach anymore with JJ Daigneault assisting his prehistoric ass.

Lots of work ahead and splitting hairs.

Thank god he's not the coach anymore, with Hutson or without him

Plus playing on NHL ice is an adjustment especially for European defensemen. As the forecheck is going to be on a defenseman on NHL ice much faster than it is on international ice.

[Kennerback]

Dobes has been very good.

 

[Trabdy2]

Dobes and Hutson probably our best players tonight. Our forwards can't really get much going offensively, but Beck and Newhook seem to be trying the hardest.

 

[Rapala]

Not sure you're on the same thread as me. I would think we are getting molested tonight.

We've seen this game so many times over the years a goaltender keeping us in a game we have no business being in.

I'm not sure what people thought was going to happen, Dvorak is our #1 line centre xD

 

[YukonCornelius 5thOA]

Kypreos still blowz.

 

[Deebs]

I’ve never heard Dvo talk…. Interesting

 

[Intangir]

Meh, this is just one of those nights where our propsects get roughed-up by a stronger opponent and show nerves fighting for a potential spot.

And then after getting dominated in basically all facets of the game early-on they try to do something, anything, which means they play a bit more loose and recklessly.

And that, paired with just crisper play on the Leafs part vs. our Canadiens just exacerbates the whole problem and makes our younguns look worse than they actually are.

Yeah, I would have wanted to see more positive from some players out there, including Joshua Roy, Beck, and Kapanen. But it is what it is, and we should take the good with the bad.

He talks!
