He did it in MTL at the end and did it with the Kings.
Meh.
We will see.
not saying you’re necessarily wrong, but the “whining” you speak of is your interpretation of things, not a fact.
he is known to be a whiner that way and that just kills the vibe of a dressing room.
really..? wouldn’t that be just an impression you have because of how things ended for him in MTL?
Not sure if Evans is going to miss some play time, but at least they made a trade before he got hurt, or the Kinds might have asked for more.
I am not sure the trade was worth a 2nd round pick, but if Evans is out long-term, I won’t grumble too much.
Danault and Evans as the 3 / 4 Cs is an upgrade.
yeah, seems to be a knee injury in Evans’ case, hopefully he doesn’t require surgery or anything like that, enough with the injuries already god damn it.
If you remove this season (where Danault obviously didn’t work with his new coach), Danault remains a pretty effective player.
The fact he’s signed for only 1 more season after this year makes it a perfect transition move to Hage if things go smoothly with the young man.
I don’t know which other options are/were out there and the pricetag attached to them. But I wasn’t a fan of giving up too much for a Kadri (whom I hate) or a O’Reilly as they didn’t really fit into what should remain the objective for this team: start your cup competitive window in 2 years.
true, when looking at the bigger picture, this season has been an anomaly in Danault’s career, chances are he’ll manage to get on a better pace with the habs. I still would’ve preferred having LA retain salary, but it isn’t a huge risk either.
totally agreed on the older and potentially much more expensive options, Hughes did well to stay away from those since they wouldn’t fit all that much in the habs’ rebuilding plans.
Love the trade and I’m glad Danault (who never should have left imho) is back. He’ll fill a glaring need as a left handed centreman.
I would’ve preferred a different move, but between this and not doing anything at all, it was a logical trade for Hughes to make.

Also, Texier has 1 move in the shootout, he used it last week, has been scouted, and for some fucking reason MSL sends him out there to do that one move that 100% of the people are expecting,I didn’t mind the selection all that much but I was expecting Texier to try another move, that one looks kinda dumb when it fails lol…
I guess it depends on the execution, Suzuki was able to use the same move for a while before goalies started catching on.
Really enjoying that K(i)DS line.
I’m still wondering if Kapanen is the “real deal”, he’s probably the one who’s impressed me the most so far simply because I was not expecting this kind of production from him.
Slaf also seems to have found another notch to his game, as he completes the line really well with his physicality.
If there is one foolproof indicator that expectations are different this year for the Montreal Canadiens, it’s the fans’ reaction to the team’s play.
[See the full post at: Canadiens Inconsistent, But Good Enough]good blog as usual, Hugo 👍
any particular thoughts on the Danault trade?
Le hockey peut justement être une bonne occasion de décrocher, I guess
oui, c’est toujours bon de décrocher et se changer les idées, pour ensuite revenir avec une nouvelle énergie/motivation
go habs go!
yeah!!

alright, I didn’t know Alessia Cara. sorry. she’s pretty good.
this totally random thought of the day is brought to you by Fido…
😉
meh, they got him to play #3C with a defense first mindset, win big faceoffs, PK… no pressure imo even at 5M per.
really good move imo by Hughes. that center line needed help big time.I get what you’re saying, but there’s just no such thing as “no pressure” in MTL, he’ll have a shit ton more than in LA, that is 100% certain.
