Even Primeau ... I must admit I had zero confidence in him but he played great the other night, he seemed focused and his positioning was excellent.

I think it would be time to switch Roy and Slaf. just a few games.
Slaf needs a break, defensively it's difficult. extremely difficult.

Slaf is hurt...keeps taking days off from practice. Many guys are banged up at this time of the year, some more than others

Why not ... Josh Wawa is hot right now, it would be a big confidence booster for him.

It's the time to do experiments and see what we've got.

that too yes. I like what I see offensively, a lot.
but defensively... aie aie aie. steady like a clock, gives 1 goal every game.

still young, he has time to iron those details, already took a good step forward this year and he is only 19...still (turns 20 in a few weeks)

Kuzy headed to the Canes

They should sit him til he is better.

I get the kid wants to play, and he mostly seems OK, but you can see him struggling out there at times.

No point in making it worse in this meaningless season.

Especially given the Habs history with injuries...

oh for sure, not complaining. very happy with the progression. but a few weeks on the 2nd line would be good imo.

Pending trading call, Evgeni Kuznetsov is being traded to the Carolina Hurricanes for a 2025 third-round pick.
Washington is retaining 50 percent on Kuznetsov (one more year next season at a $7.8 M AAV)

good move for them, they needed a #2C badly

why bring a fragile headcase into that locker room now?

Off season, maybe I get it. But still another year on that deal @$7,8.

Kuz still has major cocaine problems....wonder if he can be sober for a few months or he will jet get high and don't stop until the Canes are eliminated.

Who will ride the cocaine bus with Ovie now?

more than the points, it's the way they played. 3 solid games.
of course kids will make mistakes, we have to live with it.
