Good fight by Brook. Took a couple of hard lefts early, but came back with four rights. Other guy fell first, so Brook with the win!

Wow, the baby Sens actually have a player named Angus Crookshank.

Offer Bouchard a giant contract to stay as our developmental coach in the AHL. Honestly, in an expanding league with an ever limited pool of talent? You better have a world class development system. We seem to have one in Bouchard.

I'd say that was one of Poehling's best games ever in Laval.

Also in the last seconds of the game Blandisi hit a Sens player while the Laval bench door was open. Things got ugly between the 2 sides, so should make for a very interesting game at 3 pm tomorrow.

Ideally, we'd keep Bouchard in charge of prospect development in the AHL for a very long time; but I just don't see him being satisfied being a minor league coach regardless of money. The guy built l'Armada into a powerhouse Q team, and in his last few seasons there he was even starting to Moneyball it with the trades.
Now, he's built the Rocket into a competitive team that will hopefully be a constant presence in the AHL playoffs, after god knows how many years.
At some point NHL teams will try to poach him, even if it's not for a HC position.

Wow. Down by two, your goalie keeping you in it and you finish the 3rd with only 1 shot on goal?
Did Bellevile play really bad or did Laval play really well?
These kids are hungry and they want to win everything... too bad the "adult" Habs are starving and seem to have checked out already.

I’d love to see Bouchard stay with the Rocket another 1-2 years to keep developing them well and then become coach of the Habs with some of the kids moving up too. Then move him up to GM after 5 years 
. We need to keep him in the org as long as possible.

Man Laval is so impressive. Watching the game and seeing how well coached they are then to see the Habs embarrassed again in Calgary.
I think I skip the Habs next 2.

Both. Laval was always first on the puck and Bellville did their best impression of last year's Detroit Red Wings.

Just remind him of what happened to the last outstanding developmental coach that was “poached” from us. I forget his name, I think Tampa had him for a while.

I’d keep him in the AHL next year. Let’s see what happens when the leagues normalize into a regular season. No rush with this one. Just IMO.
Man what a great season this team has had.......................maybe a few guys can come up and share their game with a few of our guys on the big club!!
Bouchard deserves a ton of credit!!
