Your 180 on this guy is really something...
Not long ago you didn't miss one day to tell us how much Danault sucks and how Gallagher is carrying him and is basically driving that line on his own!
What happened there?
Yeah the hype on this guy has been and continues to be unrealistic.I was told Norlinder was the next Lidstrom.

A constant need to find someone to shit on
Simoneau himself gave the 5’6.25” info like a week or two ago. Making a joke about it, like “even if I check every week I remain…”
Watching Drouin play I really want this guy to excel...honestly.
He just doesn't seem to have the drive and desire to be his best. I hope I am wrong.

That ship has sailed. He'll remain what he is: an enigmatic and inconsistent forward who handles the puck like it's tied to a goddamn string.

we won, that's all that matters.
I hope he's more patient than I am, that's for sure.

Gallagher got injured like twenty times, started playing a different kind of hockey and he just generally is not as good as he was in his prime?

Time has proven over and over again, he's a big fat overhyped dud. He's never had intensity for more than 2 periods, even in his jr days. Tons of talent, just not much drive or heart.

That's not true, he lost the puck multiple times.
Tough crowd... His line had a good game IMO.

I don't know what the future holds for Simoneau, but worst case scenario I think he becomes a fan favourite in Laval.
Drouin/Evans/Armia is like the 4th line. I'm not sure what people are expecting there.
Based on the scrimmages, the Habs lines next season will be something like:
Caufield/Suzuki/ Anderson or Hoffman
Dadonov/Dvorak/Gallagher
Pitlick/Dach/ Anderson or Hoffman
Drouin/Evans/Armia
And you have Byron, Monahan waiting for a spots too...

You've said it. His line. Not him.
Let's blame it on a team scrimmage game, move on and see how he'll do in the next set of games. I lost hope a long time ago. Looking at the players coming up and the kids who played today, there are a lot of them who are way hungrier than he is. Looking at projected lineups so far, it's not looking good for him. If you look at his comments pre-game today, it's even worse. Looking at the general comments from the draft, it's especially why they picked Slaf and not Wright. Shane didn't look hungry enough.
He's still playing the same way he did forever.
And you were praising him one year ago not 5 years ago.

Clearly your evaluation is flawed. He started shooting from anywhere as opposed to making the right plays and thats where he started beint ineffective.
He played fine too, made some great passes for prime scoring chances... I have no idea what you are talking about.
That line was buzzing in the offensive zone the entire game.

And he never going to change no matter how much all of us wish he would.He is Alexandre Daigle II .He would be best taking up acting
24 years old 6'2" RHD signed to a 1-year AHL contract
Ex-TB prospect (#128 2018)
Had 26 points in 73 games in the AHL last year, so pretty decent AHL D.
With how crowded we are at D, I'd call him getting a regular top4 spot on our AHL D squad a surprise.
With Edmundson out for a while we still have:
Matheson - Savard
Schueneman - Wideman
Harris-Barron
Leskinen - Bowey
Guhle - Norlinder
Fairbrother - Green
Xhekaj - Dello
Galipeau - Centorame
