We’re going over the Montreal Canadiens powerplay units for next season, and how Patrik Laine prefers right-handed shooters compared to left-handed shooters feeding him the puck.
We’ll talk about Zach Bolduc, Noah Dobson, Lane Hutson, the first unit, and more.

Hi. I’m “Gio Palermo”, also known as “legorocks99” (“legorocks99Gaming”, “LR99Gaming”, or “LR99”). I post video game commentaries on YouTube revolving around “hockey”, with a primary focus on “Vancouver Canucks”, “Montreal Canadiens”, “Detroit Red Wings”, and top “NHL prospects” topics. These videos are uploaded with “NHL 25” gameplay in the background. I enjoy making these videos and I hope that you enjoy watching them!

I don't care about Laine's opinion, he plays with whom his coaches tell him too. You need to put in full time effort to have a say not 50% or less in a large chunk of games. I really really hope this will soon be the end of the Laine experiment and if they are not in contention come deadline day for a playoff spot realistically then he gets shipped out the door. If he stays healthy all year and is in the low 20's for goals with half of that or more on the PP he will not be worth anywhere close to the money he will want next Summer.
Seriously? He needs a righty at that spot on the ice, and the pass has to be firm, and blah blah blah. One-trick ponies get old. At his salary, he should be able to create his own opportunities. I would prefer to see him maybe show some grit, and determination at least.
Gally on PP2? Lol that makes our PP2 one of the best in the league? Maybe replace him with Dach.
Yes Laine in the 3rd set will be the best place to be for him, plus he will be in PP2
How would they have the second best pp unit if they don't even have a great second line?
