Both spark plugs, the Roadrunner and CC literally see eye to eye

I feel bad for Galchenyuk. With a real family that supported him instead of taking advantage of his money things might have turned out differently for him.
Like I said after his 2nd game, he needed a few games to adjust and get comfortable at the NHL level (and with his new teammates going by LaPresse article this morning).
I can see them waive Pezz once Pearson is ready for action, he played the least again, and keep Roy.
If you don't want him Lindy, can we have him?
You get the impression that MSL wants to keep Roy around and work with him similar to what they are doing with Slaf. I know it's a numbers game and they will get healthy bodies back soon though.
They just have to waive Pezz, and Pearson take his place on the 4th.

There have been times when many here have questioned and criticized the coaching staff but you can see that they are working with these kids. Almost every game we play I hear the announcers and intermission hosts complimenting our young players for what they are doing at such a young age.
Roy looked completely different last night when compared to his first two games, just like a switch turned on. That kid has a very high IQ on the ice and I believe will be a goal scorer in this league. Slaf is now shooting the puck more than he did earlier in the season, Struble continues to be very steady out there and Monty has dragged himself from the waiver wire and is a legit number-one goalie.
All of these positive things have to be credited to the coaching staff and management group, they are fostering an environment that allows young players to make mistakes and learn from them as opposed to sitting in the press box or being relegated to the 4th line. It is so different to watch this unfold when you compare it to what we have seen in the past. The future is bright.

I can't believe the improvement with this kid. When he first played for us after the waiver wire pickup, he looked like a sieve, a deer caught in the headlights, an ECHL reject. Little did I know he just needed some confidence to put all his skills to work. I think his stint with Team Canada at the Worlds did wonders for his confidence. I wouldn't say he's an elite superstar goalie but he is definitely in the next tier.You must mean ...

They have head room in their development to beat the good teams which is fun to watch.
When the kids play the best players they learn to elevate past where they’re at internally I think.
I remember reading an interesting comment on here about how hab pp probably sucks because they practice against a passive pk, same applies in all situations imo including 1v1s, etc
Habs had two nhl-looking lines (Suz, Money)+ A shutdown line (Evans), and an energy line with little ice… looked like hockey!

Money, Roy and Armia have a similar pace too. I doubt Roy would look the same with Anderson outskating himself and Newhook flying around. Vets with their head up, something he can emulate.
Don't ever bet against Mutombo. Past couple months he is top 5 in save %, with an inconsistent team in front of him and injuries.
I always said this about Joshua Roy, don't bet against Joshua Roy. don't get against hutson, now don't bet against Samuel Montembeault.

If they want to work with Roy, then they need to keep Moneyhands around. It's a waste to play him with Evans. Newhook needs a good C also when he gets back.
I don't get what the deal is with Money. First there were reports we wanted to keep him. Then they said they will trade him to the contender of his choosing. So, I guess we approached him with an extension and he declined?

Who is “they”? Hughes never said he’s trading Monahan, only the “plan hasn’t changed” - HuGo have brilliantly never even divulged what exactly the “plan” is.
It was a reporter who stated Monahan had an agreement to be dealt to a contender of his choosing is he reupped

Wow, I completely forgot about Josh Anderson. It's like we are better without him.
@WeThreeKings mentioned Holtz in a reply to me yesterday and here you go, lets get him.

I love how he just attacked the person asking the questi0n lol “again… uhmmm.. you don’t watch the games very well…” I’d throw my mic at his face
Devils fans wants the return of the "Fire Lindy" chants after his comments post game. I'm not sure they want to trade Holtz, but he doesn't really have a spot on their top 6 so...

G, D, character, grit … the only thing they have enough of is pond hockey players
Anderson for Holz + conditional 1st…no retention of salary

Difficult to believe Monahan didn’t have a more lucrative offer elsewhere. Probably wanted to sign here due to the environment and trust with Hughes and St Louis. If the agreement was to trade him to a contender, then he will be traded. If he wants to stay in Montreal or come back in the offseason, he will stay. Possible Monahan’s changed his plan as well since the rebuild is apparently accelerating.

Second most interesting man in the world.
This is the main difference in relation to the Bergevin era, especially with Therrien at the helm. I remember commenting back then that Premier League in the UK had several coaches, like Arsène Wenger, who saw their job as reconciling short term results with long-term nurturing of young players. The polar opposite of the likes of Therrien. MSL seems to understand his work as a weighted sum of short-term performance and long-term incubation of young talent, especially potential game-breakers like Slaf and perhaps Roy. HuGo understand this as well, hence the resources allocated to the likes of Adam Nicholas.
