Prospect Info: Cayden Primeau

[Legend123]

Did Primeau score tonight or is TSN drunk?

yeah a patrick roy like goal... was amazing.

But no, wasnt him

 

[SakuKoivu11]

Primeau is developing into a great starter. I see similarities to Jack Campbell at the WJC. The NHL is still 2 years away. Think of a young Cory Schneider.

Not bad. And these two years should be long for the Habs IF Price is injured frequently.

 

[Kobe Armstrong]

It's safe to say we won't see him again in this tournament...

Guess not .... lol

Does anyone know if he's been named the starter for the elimination rounds?

Not yet but my guess is:

Primeau .929 S%
Keyser .867 S%

Good trade Primeau is turning into.

Good trade Primeau is turning into.

One of my favorite trade sequences. Montreal traded 2018 7th round pick for pick used to pick Primeau. Philly trades that pick to Montreal for a 2019 7th round pick and Montreal picks Allan McShane who looks like a good late round pick up. At this year's draft Philly will no doubt trade us our 7th back for their 2020 7th to keep the chain alive

Last year's 7th R'd Pick was Brett Stapley, who looks good in Denver. McShane was picked in the 4th Round.

Also, Montreal got a 2019 7th R'd Pick from Winnipeg in the Armia trade. So if they end up trading their 2020 7th for a 2019 7th, they'd have two 7th R'd Picks this year. Which with the selections they've made in the 7th Round the last few years, I feel confident.

 

[GHJimmy]

Promising prospect! Cant wait to see him hit the pros ahl and nhl!

 

[WinterLion]

Primeau played a very solid game against Finland. Seems poised and confident. Good rebound control and looked big.

 

[Habs Halifax]

Possible replacement for Price in 5 or 6 years.
- 2 more NCAA years after this year (Age 20, 21)
- 2 years in the AHL (age 22, 23)
- 2 years as the back-up to Price (Age 24, 25)
- Price will be in year 6/7 of the 8 year term when he is age 36/37 (Primeau will be 24/25)

 

[WeThreeKings]

Hopefully be able to see his entire game tonight (if he starts). Will give a goaltenders perspective on his performance.

Good trade Primeau is turning into.

What was the trade ?

 

[beowulf]

What was the trade ?

Maybe the switch of that pick in 2017 from the Flyers for the Habs 7th in 2018?

 

[Habs Halifax]

What was the trade ?

The Habs scouts were jumping at the table when Primeu was still around in the 7th round. Bergevin made a trade to acquire a pick so we can draft him.

 

[Captain Mountain]

 

[HOPE]

well with price playing injured all the time, Primeau better pan out...


Price can you at least be healthy when the seattle draft happens?

 

[tooji]

Well looks like primeau is USA’s guy going forward in the elimination rounds

 

[Habsddicted]

- 2 more NCAA years after this year (Age 20, 21)
- 2 years in the AHL (age 22, 23)

- Price will be in year 6/7 of the 8 year term when he is age 36/37 (Primeau will be 24/25)

Sounds like a plan. If Primeau continues developping and we do follow this path then it would mean he'd take over Price just at the right moment for us to decide if we'd want to trade him for a rental or not.

Been real good if Montreal had drafted Leason instead of McShane. In the 7th round. Or take Mcshane 7th round this year.

I'm still not completely sold on Lesson's game being able to translate to the NHL. Granted he'd be worth taking a gamble on but he comes across as a guy who overpowers smaller players to make the play.

His skating impresses me

From my point of view. Being a tender.. He played really really well. But i doubt hes anything more than a fringe starter at his cieling.

 

[Vachon23]

He seem really good but with goalie we never know how they will translate in pro so I will waite to see what he can do pro before thinking that he can replace Price

 

[JeffreyLFC]

I'm not a goaltender specialist but he seems very casual in his style. Like very slow to react and lacking focus. He has size and I like his rebound control though.

Sometime I saw him standing like Dryden used to with his body fully straight like just watching the game.
