Mete's Shot
Didn't watch the game last night but Mete playing well is excellent news for this team. Having him develop into a top 4 D is very important.
Weber is the ideal partner for him too.

We will have to wait a bit before saying Mete could be a 1st pairing d-man. Like the others LD, he is having a cup of coffee with Weber. Hopefully, he's gonna be the solution until the end of this season at least.
Mete has looked terrific since his recall, I think he would have benefitted so much more had he been kept in Laval for the remainder of the year. Too bad the Habs don’t be have that luxury.

He just needed a reminder that he has offensive talent...
I think the send down has worked perfectly.

Don't know if it's because he plays with Weber but he is really good since he's been call up ! Know we need to see points but he plays like a top 4

Jumping up into the rush a lot which he should be considering he can hit the turbo button and get back. Playing with a lot more confidence.
He's Beaulieu 2.0. He can skate, that's pretty much it. Too small to hit, can't score, not even assists unless secondary. I'll get hate for that but oh well.

You won't get hate. Most just won't answer to that since it's not acurate.

Mete will never be a point producer.. stop talking about that even if he need to be a little more productive. And don't forget that he is just 20 years old

Beaulieu can't play defense. He's got a bad hockey IQ. Mete was always seen as a guy with a very good hockey IQ in Junior. He's having a rough time adapting to the NHL, but you have to remember that he's fairly small in height and weight, but still managed to find a spot on the team. He hasn't produced a lot, but I'm confident that he would produce much more if he stays with Weber for the rest of the season.

This!
Mete is rarely out of position and rarely make bad decision with the puck, this was Beaulieu speciality.

Mete's Shot
Mete is playing very well. He'll start producing soon I have no doubt. Needs a better shot though.

Roller coaster ride.
- Mete got a message by being sent to the AHL and he is now playing like he did to start the year last year. He needs to do this for a full season. I'm still worried about how he can get pushed around in his own end in a playoff war
- Juulsen clearly don't have the same vision, offensive skills, and skating as Mete. He does have a much better shot and is more physical in his own end while his mobility is pretty good. Now it's Juulsen's turn to get the message. We need you to be consistent for a full year and you get no passes cause you played well for 20 games.
I value these two the same but in different ways. But I still like Juulsen more. Why? Cause I want a shut down D in front of Price.

"Character"
I still take Juulsen over Mete 10 time out of 10. Neither will be top pairing guys and Mete doesn't have enough offence to his game to compensate for his lack of physicality.

Mete has the advantage of playing LD which is huge weakness on the Habs. I don't think it's fair to compare them directly, I like what Juulsen brings which is reliable D, excellent skating and 1st pass while really stepping up his physical game this year (until the injury).
I think they will both be solid pieces for Montreal moving forward , especially if the current management team choses to sell high on Petry.

Mete will definitely be a point producer in the future. With his speed, passing ability and hockey iq, he could be a 40 pt player.
Im not worried at all about his current point production since he is just 20 yo.

There is a guy on the habs squad that is very reminiscent of Beaulieu. It's Mike Reilly.
I think mete is already a smarter player at his age than Beaulieu ever was in Montreal.
He'll likely be a mobile 20-40 point guy. He's on pace for 16 pts in 82 this season so it's not too much of a leap. He won't be a high end offensive D.

If Mete was as bad as Beau, he wouldn’t be in the NHL right now. That’s just dumb. Beau was HORRIBLE.
