Love Evans but 20m is too steep to keep with Beck & Kapenen coming in…also makes Dach a winger with his lackluster C production in 2026
Ivan # 88 Let's campaign on the starr show.
Bo Horvat has a no trade clause according to puckpedia
I'll fly in from NS for a golf tourney 💪
Dobson is an RFA, if you get 1st round picks in 2026 and beyond you can make an offer sheet for him
Love the show!!
2nd line center and a # 1 Right handed Dman in a Hockey Trade! Newhook has no place in the future
You do not need to defend making money on merch
Live stream Friday can’t wait Shawn
2 wins against Buffalo and the % go up,we are not done yet.
Poor Dach is injury prone and -29. Time to move on.
This could've easily been a 25 minute episode. You keep repeating the same thing 50 times
Bo Horvat's numbers are pretty good.
Dach is Dylan Strome 2.0 .! He isn’t there , he has the tools but lacks intelligence and physicality and in my honest opinion what hurts him the most is pace . But I do believe at some point in his career this player does find it … but I also don’t want the Habs to wait for that moment
Dach injury confirms it's time to sale the free agents.
Keep it up shaun, really starting to gain traction!
I would also be in for golf!
So long Jake, if you don't want to be here, we don't want you.
Why would you trade evans dach out keep evans
It's not only Dach down we also have our best Defenseman out so our chances are next to none. We would have to go like 15 to 16 wins in our last 25 games and get a few ot points just to make it in. Instead of staying in limbo we should be pro active and get what we can instead of losing them for nothing. Package picks together to get a better one in the upcoming draft or get a prospect that's close to making the pro's. Nothing wrong with having more assets just need to package and give yourself a chance to get a better impact player. Great show btw.
Hockey games are often as close as 1 goal either way tips the scales.WHen MTL got close Laine and Caufield were switching it up ensuring somebody was scoring every game giving the team some consistency.However these are NOT consistent players they come n go when Caufield had that haorrible start a few years back it was NOT the coach he had more than enough shots on net he was simply not using his head when shooting.Since then Caufield has continued to be inconsistent but luckily Laine had that little run that could make up for it.
The goals are there all it takes is two things the QB getting the pucks to the net and the forwards getting to the net AND actually shooting the puck.When this team struggles they over handle it never shoot and play 99% of the game on the perimeter.This is why I have long blamed MSL it has been VERY obvious the issues but those same issues keep coming back over and over so this team is either not listening or they are not getting the messages from the coach.
Did anyone see/hear the coach right before McDavid scored the 4 nations winner?he said https://www.youtube.com/shorts/PE6qsUZ8rpQ "will somebody be selfish and shoot it in the net".This is a problem throughout the NHL too much goofing around not enough shooting.
Evans is a nobody Armia is nobody ANY team should be able to find similar type players within their system not having to trade away assets to get one elsewhere.If I was the aforementioned Minnesota manager I would not be interested in either player at any cost I simply would not want them.
How about a trade of the likes of Dylan Cousins for Our first round, Primeau and Roy
They’re about to lose Evans and dvorak and Dach is gone forever , what if Suzuki get injured ? , than our center line turns into , newhook, becks , Pezzetta , Kapanen , wow😂😂😂😂 threres AHL teams with better cemters 🤦♂🤦♂ I have zero faith in hugues , next season will be his fourth as gm and hasn’t found a single center yet 🤦♂🤦♂🤦♂
Excellent point. Why jidt keep resigning guys cause they are veterans if all the Habs have done is lose with them ?? We still need an influx of high end young talent to improve.
Seems like there are two guarantees for habs fans every year, which is Dach and Ghule having season ending injuries.
I can see Nick Ehlers play on the second line with Demidov and a big centre like Horvat…..
Horvat is slower than gallagher and makes 8.2 mil a year till 2031, he averages 50 pts a season and only getting older, about someone younger? Or someone with a shorter contract? Hugues really drop the ball with Monaghan , that’s what happens when you’re draft pick hungry , you trade guys like lehkonen and Monaghan and then regret it
What happens if Suzuki gets injured ? After losing Evans , dvorak and Dach ? Who’s gonna play on the PK next season with dvorak and Evans gone? Suzuki will, which will affect everyone on the team
Why can they find a F’ing center? It’s been 30 years ! Yes they have to be buyers , overpay and go get an established center not another f’ink “maybe”
I’ve been saying that ever since the Dach trade , I’ve said it for 3 years on many different YouTube channel, I said package multiple picks together and prospects and go get yourself a good center , what’s the point of wasting 1st rounders and 2nd rounder , one at a time on patches and “maybes” like newhook and Dach? Imagine in 2022, the habs would have package the Kirby Dach pick(13th overall) , the newhook picks(1st and 2nd) the Mesar pick and Roy who had great value then , so to resume 3x1st rounders , a 2nd and Joshua Roy , can you imagine what the habs would have received for all that? Instead for all those picks all they have to show for is newhook! That is piss poor management and scouting any at you look at it
The first step to trading for Noah Dobson is to understand the needs the ilanders. So if they want to get forward help, we are out because there is no way we trade any member of the first line. If they go down the rebuild lane, we can offer Mailloux, a first round and a young forward in Laval with NHL potential.
Wild just acquired Nyquist for a 2nd
Hughes claims he wants to sell high and buy low , sell gallagher than , sell Anderson than , sell Laine than , sell matheson than , these guys have peaked and losing value every time they step on the ice
We should only be asking for draft picks for the 2027 draft
Kirby Dach will not change a thing. Give Beck a chance.
Excellent show Shaun 👍
Horvat on the decline cozens on the rise if youre choosing horvat over cozens youre mad
Dach being out makes me wonder how good his knee was in the 1st place….. plus him being out WILL NOT HURT MTL play….. Im sure everyone can agree his on ice play has been less than adequate and most of us expected more , even though he is fresh back from injury….. the effort was lacking every game, disappointing
we arent down dach….. we are up dach…… it'll benefit us to have a real player playing wing…. Im off the DACH train for good…. ive seen enough…. 4 decades of hockey will teach you to spot those things… the guy is not a gamer, no intensity…. he developped quick and that gave him the advantage in Jr, he no longer has or can create……. too bad to say but hes a bust
ROMANOV CARRER +33. DACH CAREER -51
Kick tires on proce for yubov . Pckg a deal with armia and evans plus a prospect and pick
The definition of insanity is dressing the same players and expecting a different result, I'm tired of these UFA's, time to clean house. The Habs will sign better players, at least 2 plus the kids. thx
Get Crosby please get rid of Devo and Armia sign Sid the kid please
I believe we have 1 more year left on Kriby's contact. If we can't move him for whatever reason he plays his last year as a HABS and cut him loose. This guy has been a joke ever since we traded him. He is injury prone and not a number 2 center.
