I didn't know we go him and I knew nothing about him but what I see in these highlights I love and you don't often hear me say that. He doesn't screw around he shoots and he LOOKS/aims his shots AND he gets into the slot where he should be so not a soft perimeter player.I would absolutely insert him into the lineup right away. The problem is the habs have nobody at center to be a setup guy so he would need to be on the first line to get the most out of him.IMO he could easily be a 30 goal score on the first line way better than bumkovsky.
I am actually shocked e got this guy IDK why St.L didn't keep him he has the look of the exact type of player I want on my team.My assumption is that these good looks are becuase he is on the PP with high end players like Thomas and typically he was not utilized properly playing with bums.So if MTL sends him to laval he might be invisible he needs to play with good quality players.
Ok as soon as I left this video I see why we got him lol we gave up Mailloux that is a very tough give but I understand why there is just no room in the lineup for Mailloux and imo he will be sadly missed especially in laval.Like if Laval loses Logan and Reinbacher makes the team that is going to set Laval WAY back WAY WAY back.
I was disappointed to lose Heineman and the possibility of drafting Carbonneau… but I am now ok after this trade ( I am actually pretty excited). If Dach can really become a top 6 player (ideally a 2C), we will be "en voiture, comme qu'on dit".
3:20 he’s going in on a breakaway and the play-by-play guy is still blathering on about something completely unrelated to what is happening on the ice. Horrible. That is my biggest pet peeve as a fan
Mostly pp goals , dont see him takin laine nore cauffields spot as shooter on pp , he had a 16% shooting percentage its not sustainable. Unfortunatly this is a real bad trade for mtl.. mailiux will be playing 20mins a night for the next 12 years. Another sergachev for drouin trade
I hate thinking in linear fashion, thinking what worked last year is what is necessary to keep going with.
So here's my PP1 & PP2 proposal:
PP1:
Laine – Bolduc – Demidov, Suzuki + Hutson. Suzuki plays more like a rover with Bolduc in that bumper, Laine & Demi on the boards.
PP2:
Caufield – Dach – Slavkovsky, Matheson + Dobson. Heavy net presence with bombs from the point a la Dobson. Caufield there to snipe the garbage, Matheson has good PP experience. I'd swap in Newhook for either Dach or Matheson, with Matheson's position switching to something similar to Suzuki's in a rover position, instead Newhook being that rover. His speed being the best asset for this deployment.

Great great bumper player. Glad he's back home now
Kid can rip a biscuit
nice can u make 1 for dobson please
Don't mind the trade. No room for Mailloux. Nice bottom 6 player that could get better.
Should have traded reinbacher instead of Mailloux.
Nice! Let’s see a defensive highlight tape
Wow…Bolduc will play 2nd line!!!
Slafkovsky/Suzuki/Caufield
Bolduc/Dach/Demidov
Laine/Newhook/Anderson
Blais/Evans/Gallagher
Hes always in the slot
Top six all day.
Wow

Bowl-duke. 🤣😂
Physical the kid
He’s a bit of a sniper 😎
Notre 2C
I think Mailloux will end up being better then Reinbacher I hope I'm wrong though.

October is so far mannnn
Demidov / Dach / Bolduc
lol at trading the rare RHD because a french canadian was available
Pretty good 3rd liner. Reminds me of Gallagher with a better shot. I think he will be liked in Montreal.
Bolduc a l'air solide!
He definitely can be a 30 goals scorer with the right players.
He likes those point shots.
Mostly pp goals , dont see him takin laine nore cauffields spot as shooter on pp , he had a 16% shooting percentage its not sustainable. Unfortunatly this is a real bad trade for mtl.. mailiux will be playing 20mins a night for the next 12 years. Another sergachev for drouin trade
we've seen Demidov make numerous genius passes to the bumper… that duo is gonna do some damage.
Come to Papa
excellent en bumper, toujours dans lanclave
With Demidov skills to find wicked passing lanes on the offensive zone Bolduc will score at least 30 goals.
3:11 this is the WORST COMMENTARY I’ve ever heard in my life DAMN I hope they don’t do that often good lord
Looks like the Habs got themselves a natural shooter!
Wow Montreal is finally going to have two powerplay units with legitimate chances to score:
Slafkovsky
Caufield – Suzuki – Demidov
Hutson
Dach
Laine – Bolduc – Newhook
Dobson
Get this guy in the bumper spot on the PP1 damm
We needed someone who can play and add some hitting I think he’ll for the young core great
Un vrai québécois! https://youtube.com/shorts/dZCE0cfzFUE?si=9KTyfu05Pg9nzH08
Le chevre
I like that he gets rid of the puck quickly. Nice one timers. Habs need someone who can check & shoot. Decent speed too.
