Let’s all relax people. The young guns are still playing well, thats whats important. Once we get rid of and replace Matheson, Savard, Anderson, Dvorak and Armia, we are going to look much better. Next year we’ll have Demidov and Laine in the lineup, and we can go out and get 2 sound more veteran defenseman. That’s when this team will look good
Gallant for assistant coach! The problem with the MTL coaching staff is they're all young. We really need an old geeser as assistant coach who has seen it all.
No, they were bottom 5 last year and got younger on d, the roster isn;t close to a playoff team, a 2nd line, 3, 4th lines and a top 4 dman with poor goaltending.
We got Jacob Fowler, Yevgeni Volokhin in the Pipeline Let the young D play they will get better MSL is not doing himself any favors not using Hutson on the 1st PP
I watch every game. I'm not an expert but from my eyes it's the veterans that are hurting them. Savard and Matheson are lost every game, make wrong reads and horrible passes
Doesn't think it's a coaching problem but a " Talent Problem " ? MSL had absolutely no coaching experience at any level prior to coaching the Canadiens. It's 100% a coaching problem. There's more then enough talent on this team, they just need an experienced coach to guide them. Put MSL as assistant coach and let the more experienced coach guide his coaching too.
The Habs are extremely young. Guys like Slafkovsky will be massively better in 3yrs from now, not to mention kids like Hutson and even Ghule. And then you have many players that are not even playing in the NHL (Rainbacher, Demidov, Mailloux, Roy, Hage, Beck, etc etc) The Habs in 3-5yrs from now will be much much better.
They dont want to play for the peewee coach narcissist napoleon st-louis anymore…we are rebuilding anyway so we need to loose and finish last. I dont know what kent hughes is waiting to trade or put on waivers,anderson,armia,dvorak,matheson,gally,even savard and montenbeault…i guess he expect a first round pick for each of them but it wont happen, so give them away and play the young kids.. mailloux,engstrom,kapanen,beck,joshua roy, dobes all deserve to be in montreal,you should fire the peewee coach too,what an arrogant little piece of something he is…he has zero experience as a coach…he only care about his personnal stats 😡😡😡
Now just like most Canadian franchises, they're developing players into great NHL performers, to watch them leave for more "win now" attitude U.S. franchises. Caufield will not waste the best years of his career in Canada.
Habs would have maybe challenged for a Wildcard with Laine if everything went very well. When they lost Laine.. the expectations should have been reset too.. drafting 8th to 12th in 2025.
Comparing the Habs to the Devils who are 4 seasons into a rebuild with a young team it’s a disaster, the Devils looking to the future realize they need a top-quality goaltender to backstop this young team and who did they get.…Jake Allen from the Habs and who's having trouble with goaltending…the Habs, it's time to pass this young team onto a more experienced coach, I love Marty and what he’s done but it's not working anymore…time to move on to a coach that can tap into this teams strengths and get them on the right track, they’re playing the same system game in and game out and it’s not working
Suzuki Is a great second line centre, he is not a number one centre on a team going deep in the playoffs, the rebuild will take the next step when they get a legitimate #1 center iceman, they have pieces and players coming,

Nope.
Habs fan here, Caufield hasn’t done enough to earn a spot on that team to be honest. He’s been grossly overrated

I watch every game…. he's not a well rounded player

agree with that list, no spot for him, they have enough firepower without him

They really need to get Hutson on PP1 time, the guys on PP2 are plugs, he’d have much more if they knew how to finish the glorious setups
Imagine if the Habs put Hudson on the PP… why does everyone know this except the coaches???
I like Caulfield but theres better picks then him for team USA
Very young talent.
We got Jacob Fowler, Yevgeni Volokhin in the Pipeline
Let the young D play they will get better
MSL is not doing himself any favors not using Hutson on the 1st PP
I am impressed with Colaiacovo's analysis. I didn't know he was so knowledgeable about the Canadiens.
Habs need Schaefer or Misa.
Shouldnt the tsn be banned for stupidity?
matthews’s won’t even be top 10 in scoring this year💀
Its MSL
Caufield, unfortunately, is probably seen as too small and one dimensional to go and play for team USA. As a Habs fan, I don't have him on team USA.

Why are sportswriters so clueless? It's not like every other team in the NHL is comprised of old writers like this.
This guy talking about messing with the top line that's been changed already for past few games

Gallant is not qualified to be head coach, assistant sure…..
Gallagher has more goals than Matthews this year. 😂😂😂

americans suck in these tournaments.. they only do well in tournaments NTDP can prepare for two years.
Should the Nashville predators… bla bla bla. Let's play hockey. Too much speculation these days…
Montreal is 2 years away from being 2 years away
