Roy was benched after the Habs PKs in the 3rd, along Pezz (and Ylonen didn't play the 3rd after getting his ear clip). Both teams played with 3 lines from that point.I don't think I saw Roy in the third... at least not the last 12 minutes of it that I watched. Is he better/worse/same as Heineman?
He's playing higher in the line-up than Heineman did and didn't look out of place and had some good offensive sequences in the 1st/2nd. Applied himself defensively too. Not as physical as Heineman, but he's more of a skill/IQ player.
I personally think he needs to get used to the NHL speed to speed up the rest of his game. But he could go down in the AHL and work on his puck battle skills too.
Shots were 36-35 for Colorado which means the Habs lead the shot counter until the last 3 minutes and the 6v5....and that's despite not shooting on net for half the 2nd period.Missed the game and when I saw they won 4-3 I expected the shots to be like 60-15 for Colorado with us just winning because Allen stood on his head. Glad to hear they played a good game and nice to see Caufield, Slaf and RHP with goals.
But the Habs also blocked 25 shots vs like 6 for the Avs...
