55 days til first pre-season game.
Lots of summer left.
good..! ????
as I was saying earlier, I can’t wait for the season to start, but at the same time I want to enjoy what’s left of the summer, I despise winter so frickin’ much lol…
Will also be interesting to see if they use guys like BLais and Voleno to fill spots so that guys like Beck / Kapanenn / Mini-WiFi / Etc… play full time in Laval, at least to start the season.
Also, I think Roy will have to find another team if he wants a path to the NHL… maybe something happens, but I do not think so, too much talent in front of him now.
very intrigued to see if/when Florian makes it to the big club, apparently he’s even more of a unicorn than his brother…
agreed on Roy, unless he comes out of the gate firing on all cylinders he’ll probably have a hard time earning a spot in the line-up, as he’s the kind of player that surely won’t be as effective if you ask him a play a role in the bottom 6.
oh I also like Evans, I just find he lacks a bit of offensive awareness to his game at times but I remember seeing flashes of it where he would score a really nice goal and I’d be like “hey, he should do that more often..!” lol.
and yeah, if MSL wanted to move further towards what he calls “hard coaching”, I think he’s definitely starting to have the pieces in place to do it… if a guy can’t do the job, there will be another player waiting in line to grab the opportunity, he shouldn’t be stuck with having a player in the wrong chair by default for lack of a better option.

In the beginning, I was not, but I have become a pretty big Evans fan.
I think he can do more with good wingers… and still be defensively responsible, hence Anderson and Bolduc.
Will be interesting to see what MSL does with the lineup.

I thought he was older but Bolduc is only 22, so he might have some untapped potential going on there for sure.

I’m also interested on how they will set up the bottom 6.
Bolduc-Evans-Anderson could be a fun line too, perhaps the main defensive line on the team that could add some additional scoring.
replace Evans with Dach and you could get a very interesting combination there as well…

yeah, I haven’t seen a whole lot of Bolduc’s play but from what I’ve been hearing I think he’ll immediately be very appreciated by the fanbase, guys that work hard and put in the effort are usually beloved in MTL.

I’d want to do it more to see if Bolduc could push his game to that level.
Plus, he is a lot more defensively aware and uses his body well to protect/dig out the puck, in those respects an upgrade over Laine, which could help the line be more consistent.

and I definitely could see that happen if things don’t work out with Laine, I mean why not try that combination, it does sound interesting…
