Thanks guys! Man, Demidov is really looking sharp! I am pulling for Mailloux to become a solid Habs Dman., he is big, can hit, can play, shoot, here's hoping for an even better year next year boys! Last one to win back to back calder's was Bobby Orr (1967), Derek Sanderson (1968) I believe?
That's about where the comparison stop between the two. One will likely be an NHL 3rd pairing defenseman whereas Robinson is a hall of famer since 1995 !!!
Cumon guys! You gotta do the research. Chicago gets rid of 6 million dollar hall salary. And takes on 4.5 million of rantanens salary. They save money and both contracts end at the end of year. And they get a pick.
Furthermore, by letting Hall go, they have secured a top3 pick again this year. Several teams will be tanking solid in 2026 and 2027 for Mckenna and Dupont. But Chicago adding a Schaefer, a Misa or even a Hagen to their team will still be "major" for their rebuild.
I think there are a few injured habs still playing and that does not help the team maintain that excellent comeback last month . I do not think they will be able to make the series but i like what i see from the habs Slav is waking up, and if everyone could do the same it would help. but injuries even small ones will slow the progress down. Patrick Lane is coming back from out of action,he still needs to get in game shape level skating wise. still has that scoring touch i like that. Imagine next year with that Russian marvel Demidov wow that could be a game changer if he adapts fast to the NHL.
Thanks for the analysis! I have a quick question: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (mistake turkey blossom warfare blade until bachelor fall squeeze today flee guitar). How can I transfer them to Binance?
Good problem to have, worry about that bridge when we cross it. ELC for 3 years Lock him in 8 years as soon as possible Suz Slaf Caufield Ghule All locked down Gally Andy Price All contracts off the books in 2-3 years Other ELC’s can fill roster, sprinkle in a few vets on cheap contracts
My 2nd team is Columbus and I'll be honest I couldn't stand Pascal Vincent when he was there. He just seemed smug and didn't do a great job. It definitely wasn't all on him, but I just didn't like him. He seemed like an asshole, but I can't deny in Laval he's getting results. But much like how in Columbus it wasn't all on him, neither is Laval's success. The guys on the ice are really pulling their weight out there. Calder run here we come!
IMHO, it would be very dangerous to go with 2 inexperienced centers, especially in the bottom 6. I see only one of Beck or Kapanen making the team out of camp. Now if they both have great camps, then... we shall see.
Doubt MacKinnon cares about who is paid more. The salary cap is going up significantly so thinking players won't base their pay on cap hit % makes no sense.
After 3. seasons Guhle has more ES points than Jake Sanderson in 50 fewer games. Playing 2 fewer mInutes per game. KG is most underrated player on the team. If he had PP time, he'd be an All Star.
McKinin could finish asking for a trade? who knows. loosing his line mate for 10 years now???? all depends how Mckinin reacts to this trade.? it is business we all can see it .
Great show guys !! Are the ufa better than beck, kapanen , or Roy? I say no and as for newhook I prefer RHP TO HIM , he's a better player and a hometown boy , time to get rid of the clouns ! Armia , Evans, devorak, and newhook are all the same just a different number !!!

Great show you guys!!!
Mailloux reminds me of Larry Robinson, samei size, moves the same on the ice. Big Bird spent a couple seasons in the AHL.
That's about where the comparison stop between the two. One will likely be an NHL 3rd pairing defenseman whereas Robinson is a hall of famer since 1995 !!!
Robinson wasn't a Hall of Famer at 21. He played 112 AHL games with 63 points, Mailloux has played. 107 with 69 points.
Best Habs podcast on TH-cam.
Sorry i couldn't stay Grant, i was a social butterfly yesterday. :) Was fun seeing you and Rocco, and even that Misa kid. :)
Davidson is playing well 🎉🎉🎉🎉.
🔥Great show boys as usual! 🔥

Agreed! Hall was on pace for 40 pts and wasn't making a difference. No idea if they could have held out for a 2nd round pick or a grade B prospect.
Furthermore, by letting Hall go, they have secured a top3 pick again this year. Several teams will be tanking solid in 2026 and 2027 for Mckenna and Dupont. But Chicago adding a Schaefer, a Misa or even a Hagen to their team will still be "major" for their rebuild.

Grant's got the Darth Vader look, what with the dark shadow behind his hoodie ! 😅 ... appears to be his chair backrest.
Have you looked at how many times ghule is on for goals against???
If you have a look at the stats regarding even strength goals, Guhle is on the ice more often when Habs have scored.

Sooner Mailloux & Reinbacher are to playing on CH the sooner Matheson can be moved
Can’t wait!!!! Neither can Hutson, PP and 5v5 defensive zone play
imagine what habs will have to pay Demidov if he is as good as he now is or if he gets way bettter???
Good problem to have, worry about that bridge when we cross it.

Of all the prospects in the system, who will be on the team for 2027-28?
Tony’s buddy ‘Snake Boisvert’ says that Kapanen will never be an NHL player, same guy that said Hutson is a gadjet player
Sick
