Points are not everything but they still matters. You're talking about Seabrook like if he was one of those 15 points "i can't get the puck out of the zone but hey i'm good in front of the net dmen". He had three 40+ season and was doing over 30 points more often than not and he was also scoring between 7 and 10 goals almost every year. He could support the offense well enough.
Tort is Tort, I bet you Tort is fired before mid season because of friction between him and Michkov.
More probability Rein quits hockey than that he becomes a Norris winner
Yep, people have some idea that he's Miss Trunchbull for some reason
True, although the thing with Michkov that Torts might want more out of is the defensive side and physicality. If a forward isn't blocking shots, he's basically in the dog house no matter if it's a rookie or a vet.
My bad, for some reason I was confusing Berube with Brindamour. Age does these things lol
Except that this is a first year player faced with multiple challenges — Torts is a hot head but I can’t imagine Michkov getting put through a grinder right away. We’ll find out soon enough.
There's a few of those. It's well known that ever since Savard kicked out the media from the plane they are all suck up.
HuGo broke off a few crumbs for Basu and Engles and had them eating out of the Habs org’s hands ever since.
Engels started taking vague but obvious broadsides at Bergevin toward the very very very end. But they all have the same optimist positive tone. I think it’s for the best. Habs fans don’t react well to bad things said about the Habs.
F..... Stupid draft that was. Michkov fit in nicely on Dach wing. We could draft a better D this year.
Well this is wrong, this was definitely a concern that many so-called experts here brought up. The inability to control development and uncertainty on when and if he'd come over was absolutely said here many times.
But based off of what? Making such claims means that you would have to watch and know the player pretty well, but people were also saying management couldn't properly watch games of him. So not sure how an HF poster would have access to evaluate Michkov through watching and making such claims when they acknowledge that management couldn't.
Does he have to be another Bedard for this to happen, or is a 70-80 point winger good enough to acknowledge this? Assuming of course that Bedard is a 100 point forward which I think we all can agree he can and likely will become.
Kk played in the NHL before Quinn Hughes.
