@jeremicraig92@the_habitant Right and how did Caufield and Suzuki start? Were they rocket fire? No… but diff rules apply to the lesser younger player named Kapanen… some ppl are a joke
@PLangille31@EricEngels Have to agree, I’m not upset about seeing Florian get in one bit, but that’s Beck’s opportunity to stack two great games together and build momentum
@HabsChronicle You’re not wrong, but he’s historically been streaky and can take time to heat up. I think we’ll still see him contribute all in due time.
@The_Creasy The tough part is, now they need Hage to be an absolute hit. If that kid doesn’t become a minimum 50 pt player by year one and then progress from there, then this will all look even worse.
@MurphysLaw74 Petterson would’ve been just the right type of gamble. Hughes is looking for a no risk move, and those rarely exist… we may be sitting waiting for awhile if that’s the case
@SpidermanVennom He’s 21, they have a logjam at D, he’ll get his chance. Injuries, slumps, trades… a lot can happen and likely will and he’ll get in full time.
@NHLTradeRumors Basically, Montreal has the assets to get Rakell very easily (might be a no brainer but it’s just the reality), hence why Rust and Rakell were rumored to be of interest to them last year ahead of the deadline.
@GrumpaDotCA Regardless I think when he does join (hopefully April), it’s a craps chute… he could put up 60 pt pace on the second line or struggle to fit in / gradually develop. Who really knows.
