I like goons. Habs should get more goons.

Encouraging, but still an uphill battle when you need teams ahead of you (with games in hand) to lose. Laval is not dominating, but relying on opportunities (good powerplay tonight) and superior goalie performances. Not an ideal strategy at this point, but a win is a win!!!! go Rocket!!

For the moment

For fun, who on the Rocket has a chance to be a full-time Hab going forward?

Heineman Goal - 1:27
Mailloux Assist - 5:02
Reinbacher almost fight (mostly off camera)- 11:59

No toe drag goal? Bust

 

[montreal]

What a sick run both Dobes and Mailloux are on. Dobes now 5-1-1 in the last 7 and Mailloux with 8 pts in the last 8 games.

They dropped Heineman down to the 2nd line has his production has really dropped off but he works hard and plays a solid physical game. Good to see him get the tap in goal though.

Not the best game for Reinbacher but good to see him not back down, not that I thought he would as he's shown in the NL he will stick up for himself and he's clearly a big boy. There's going to be an adjustment so I'm glad that the Habs opted not to rush him. He and Mailloux so far are the only Hab 1st round picks that didn't appear in at least 1 NHL game during their D+1/+2/+3 season as Scherbak is the only one to not do so since 2007 draft though I suspect both will see NHL games at some point by next season.

again not a great game from the offense but they never seem to play well vs the Sens so getting the 4 pts in huge.

« Mostly Off Camera » ought to be the trademark for AHL away games viewing experience.

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

I'll be over the moon if we can get just 1 point tomorrow. Third game of the weekend on the road is a real killer.

No one...
Oh wait you didn't say as a forward.

 

[Habs13]

Heineman as a bottom six??

 

[Rapala]

I'll be beyond the moon if we can get just 1 point tomorrow. Third game of the weekend on the road is a real killer.

No excuse Marlies are also playing their third of three.
Plus there's a f***ing Maple Leaf on their Jersey.

 

[Rapala]

Heineman as a bottom six??

He may be more useful than Ylonen but honestly I expected more from him this season.
If however he plays the type of game he played tonight every night he'll get his chance.

 

[DramaticGloveSave]

I thought Emile Heineman had a GREAT game he was all over the place.​

Heineman to me is such an underrated piece in our pipeline. He’s a middle 6 winger all day in my book. He and Beck can be 2/3s of a great 3rd line.

 

[schwang26]

No they aren’t. They’ve played 1 more game than Belleville with the same amount of points.

I am still not convinced that Heineman has NHL upside.

 

[WeThreeKings]

I am still not convinced that Heineman has NHL upside.

Size, speed, shot, some jam. He's a NHLer all day. It's just a matter of if he's a middle 6 guy or a bottom 6 guy/4th liner.

 

[yianik]

For the moment

That's all we have bro, the moment

 

[Rapala]

Size, speed, shot, some jam. He's a NHLer all day. It's just a matter of if he's a middle 6 guy or a bottom 6 guy/4th liner.

I was expecting 20-25 goals from Heineman.
My disappointment is mostly with his production.
He doesn't totally disappear which I do like.
It's hard to watch him and not see an upgrade on RHP.
Actually he's one of the players I expect will have some juice tonight.

He simply doesn't stick out too me enough. In his 4 game call up he was invisible. Is it hockey IQ? I am an amateur so I am no expert, I just watch alot, nothing more than an "armchair expert"

The one thing I do like is that he is very strong and finishes his checks which many current Hab players don't do.
