yeah... what a joke. Putting in an offensive player for a team that's scoring like 1.1 goals per game. Maybe your hatred should go a little deeper than one player.

I guess we should dump Pacioretty then too? 14 points in 28 games? Real 1st liner! WOOO!An offensive player with 1 non-empty netter goal in 34 playoff games.... great help
Rene Bourque has more playoff points than Pacioretty in less games.
Our whole team ****ing sucks.. but that doesn't mean Desharnais can't bring more offense than Jacob de la Black Hole.

Come on Natey, I get your point you find him valuable, I'm not saying he isnt, but as long as Therrien will play him the way he does, getting him off the lineup is better than on, just because it forces Therrien to do some changes. Although based on the lines at practice, finding lines that make sense might be too much for Therrien as well.

Yes, both of them bring more to the table the a guy with one season of professional experience and zero NHL experience.
I'm kind of shocked that you would even need to ask this question.

Desharnais ftw!
Hope he scores a hatty!
DD is scoring 0.03 goals per game in playoffs, I wouldn't argue about ppg hehehe

Prust-Desharnais-Parenteau was actually a good line this year. Still hope the EGG line is together thoo

Deshar - I'm only playing because I'm French - has TWO ****ing assists in 7 games, despite being played with the top offensive players and constantly on the powerplay.
Defend this please. Someone. Somehow.

Bourque was able to score goals. He wasn't a hard worker, wasn't a very good player but was able to put it in the back of the net. Did it with the Flames.....
He was playing with Eller....who ended up being our best OFFENSIVE player in the PO.
Eller is playing really well, one of our best player right now, all-around....maybe we should try Eller with a goal scorer.....
#JustSaying
Well, I can correct you but I can't defend it.
Top offensive player(s), the s shouldn't exist unless Weise/PAP/DSP are top offensive players on the RW.
As for top offensive player, max has 2 goals in 7 games plus 1 ENG.
That doesn't excuse DD either because he's relied upon offensively and hasn't gotten it done. For a long period no less.
I thought he would play with an extra gear this playoff season to prove people wrong but nope, more of the same. Unfortunate.
At this point, maybe we should try Pacioretty with Mitchell. Not a shot at our other centers but I really want to keep Mitchell next year, massive upgrade on Malhotra.

Mitchell is leading forwards in points and has actually been quite effective as of late.

Stop thinking so much. Did you ever play Hockey? Hudon is not a boy, he is a pro hockey player that might jump at this chance. And the AHL in fact is more dangerous to play in than the NHL.
Youth and skill can make a huge difference.
God, the timidity around here.

This is a bad time for Habs. There are a lot of questions about this team now and going forward. Habs are being humiliated at the moment.
Your constant defense of one player, versus looking at the bigger picture, is pedantic, and an irritant to long time fans here. I would suggest you tone it down right now.

I would advise you to look at the raw rookies on the Habs 86 cup team before pronouncing that Hudon is a bad idea. There are guys on this board with long memories.

The team should never take risks -- risks come with a possibility of failure.

I think the attitude of some of those people emerges from our culture of helicopter parenting and perpetual infantilization. Visit a University campus abd realize that many of those kids won't have a job until they're 25 if even then.
It's only natural that they think a full year of AHL experience is not enough to prepare for NHL ice, lol, that prospect is "kinda shocking". Maybe Hudon needs to be eased in over the next three or four years.
Only issue I have with Hudon is he hasn't been in game action for quite some time no? Then add to jump to NHL then the playoffs. Seems like easy to be missing timing.

By that logic, we're stuck with the current roster through the end of the playoff.
Here's the problem with that. The offense is weak. If we play it "safe" and minimize risk the series is likely to end in around ~36 hours.
