We sincerely apologize for the extended downtime. Our hosting provider, XenForo Cloud, encountered a major issue with their backup system, which unfortunately resulted in the loss of some critical data from the past year.
What This Means for You:
- If you created an account after March 2024, it no longer exists. You will need to sign up again to access the forum.
- If you registered before March 2024 but changed your email, username, or password in the past year, those changes were lost. You’ll need to update your account details manually once you're logged in.
- Threads and posts created within the last year have been restored.
- Our 2025 light and dark themes were lost, so we are rebuilding them. Light theme is currently available, but work in progress
Our team is working with Xenforo Cloud to recover data using backups, sitemaps, and other available resources. We know this is frustrating, and we deeply regret the impact on our community. We are taking steps with Xenforo Cloud to ensure this never happens again. This is work in progress. Thank you for your patience and support as we work through this.

No he has quietly developed in Europe for 7 years...who knows how good he can be.ok, but it's not a hot take then
Sorry but he was bad, that's why they signed Kaskisuo who calmed and helped Dobes

I think the team is more structured defensively and that helps a lot. The team kept breaking down defensively last year.
It's very early, but it looks night and day right now, to me at least. Even the general effort level has been much better.
My apologies, meant to say Kaskisuo wasn't bad. Mann is now in Germany. Kaskisuo UFA
I actually liked Kaskisuo and was disappointed that he wasn't brought back.
You won’t get 4 raw rookies arriving at the same time at NHL level
I think he decided to not stay in Laval. he was away from his family the whole season last year.
Jr has the Evan Joanness (but meatier) circa the 1980 look. For those who know the local culture.The level of nepotism during RDS intermissions is cringe with Leroux Sr. and Fiston interviewing each other.

I liked his puck management this afternoon far more than last night.
Good to see that intelligence in a very tight game.
Actually, Montreal told his agent they decided to go in a different direction (which was Connor Hughes).
(This video starting 8:04)
Montreal started talking to Hughes during the finals, which were in April.
It's been done before. Toronto brought up 8 or 9 rookies the year they drafted Matthews and made the playoffs. Montreal had 6 rookies the year they won the cup in 86, and a couple more players that were sophmores.
If you surround rookies with good leadership you end up with the 86 Habs. Perfect blend of great leaders and young players.
Too bad all the Habs veteran forwards are useless at everything except Gallagher.
