Prospect Info: Cayden Primeau

[azcanuck]

Exactly why he needs at least one full year in the minors preferably two.

He's up to early even though he's better then Kinkaid. I never want to see him again.

It's a failure not to get a good backup in here. Last year was bad enough. Goalies are easy to get , this is so puzzling.

Good to see that they are working on an aspect that can help move the puck efficiently by a backstop. Watching and learning from Price is nice to see along with Waite. Price is arguably one of the best in all aspects of goalkeeping. Can see a few debacles coming during the growth period though.

Btw, who is that dead center in the back, two rows behind Suzuki, in street clothing? Peca? Juulsen?

Looks like Peca. KK looks like he's 12 years old lmao

 

[ahmedou]

That's right I rarely see him going behind his net. A good sign that he wants to work on his flaws. Being an all-round or complete goalkeeper is a must.

It's Peca. Mete, KK and Byron are all in there too. Good team photo. Seems like the guys have good team spirt.

I like that he’s the only one with the Hab jersey on (maybe he’ll be wearing a “New Jersey” tomorrow ....no pun intended )

In somewhat related news, I laughed a bit when I read this. Not sure if I should laugh at (with) Tkachuk or hate him more. What a prick but still nice to see some old school douche-baggery.

“Primeau said Friday that Tkachuk messaged him before the game and told him that he was going to take the puck.”

I think it's because they want to keep Price hot. They don't want to play Primeau once every 3 games, which is the minimum he needs.

It will be interesting to see if Primeau gets called up for the next back to back and Price plays all the games until then.

I think this is good. They can bring him back up when there's another stretch of games to play. Interesting to hear Marc Denis' comments which suggest that he believes the best place for him to learn is at the NHL level while playing 1 game per week. Its not what I would have thought but you have to respect his opinion given his experience

Yes, very interesting coming from Marc Denis. Still, I would add that he should be sent back to Laval ever week to additional play one game there per week.

Wouldn’t want our 10.5M stallion to get outplayed by a 20 year old.

This is one of those "cup of coffee" call ups that was a huge success.

 

[1909]

He gave up 5 goals today at AHL level !!!! Could be also because of the team playing in front of him ???

Bad games happen every now and then. Hopefully he bounces back.

 

[Guy Larose]

Apparently he needs to practice, not play...should of kept him with the big club then since he'll only play 1 game until the holidays apparently.

Brace yourself. There is going to be a heck of a lot more disappointment and surprises in the short span and fans going to be all over the highs and lows. Why? Cause we are trendy

It will be interesting to see the narrative on our boards in 2 or 3 years from now. The mods better keep these threads available cause I'd love to see past comments where people act like crystal ball experts today

Laval has three games left before their Christmas break. They may alternate so Kinkaid gets two games and Primeau one. Or they may give Kinkaid tonight and Primeau gets Wednesday and Friday.

Nevertheless, Kinkaid needs to play also. He was the back up for the three last games. And his last game, he came in after Lindgren got hurt.

Personally, I would like to see Primeau start all three. But I understand that Kinkaid needs to play also.

 

[WeThreeKings]

Kinkaid f***ing sucks. He can play in the ECHL.

 

[montreal]

Primeau's season to date,

first 7 games, 12 goals against.

next 7 games, 29 goals against

thats including one SO so in 6 games he's given up 29 goals, he's given up 20 in his last 4 starts alone. He needs some time off or something. So glad they called him up to the NHL, giving up 5 goals a game has to be great for his confidence.

 

[Archijerej]

Yep, that clearly did him in. Taking a subway and winning in his second start in the NHL must have been disastrous for his confidence.

And now he can't stop a beach ball playing behind "one of the AHL's top teams".

He let in 14 goals in 3 starts before the call up and 10 goals in 2 games since so he couldn't stop a beach ball for some reason after starting off great when Laval was one of the top teams in the AHL before they lost an entire top 6, top 2 defense but it's not like Lindgren was having this trouble in front of the same defense. It's highly concerning that he's getting lit up a christmas tree as that can't be good for his confidence but then again I wouldn't have called up someone that was giving up 5 goals a game at the time. Hopefully they don't give him the yo-yo treatment like so many others in the great development plan of the Habs management.

 

[ottawa]

His play has been shit since he got sent down, he'd have trouble stopping a beach ball through his five hole.
