Fun fact, you could say the exact same thing about Emelin. Nice hit on the Brain though.
- Habsody


i thought Emelin was Montreal's best Dman. but when Markov/Subban aren't the team's best dmen on a given night, there's usually a problem.

I agree. Emelin had his best game in two years.

To be honest i missed the two first periods last night, we went to the Phénix-Cataractes massacre. Left the game after the 2nd

But usually, Emelin isn't good with the puck...

no he's not but not all 6 dmen are going to be good with the puck. ultimately though, not sure having Emelin/Tinordi/Weaver in the top 6 is a long term success plan. i get it for the Bs, but i hope Beaulieu gets back in for Colorado.

Hope the kid find the confidence he had in the playoffs last year, he plays like he doesn't want to make a mistake that will take him out of the line-up. But that's not his game and that's why he didn't play much so far this season.

I still believe we are a top 4 D away to be a true contender. I like the balance of the offense this year, even if Eller-Bourque are back to their former self.

It's a fairly quick death, few weeks should do it.

oh at least. possibly 2. and i think that if, by games 40-50, it doesn't look like either of the rookies can be top 4 this year, you'll see MB make a move. and not a Mike Weaver move.

Actually he is listed at 188. I don't think he will ever be a regular NHLer. Jérémy Roy is one heck of a player, he was the best on the ice last night.

i don't think a few weeks is "quick" when you have a fatal virus that's liquifying your insides.

I don't see MB adding 2 dman this year but yeah, by january he should be targeting the likes of Marc Staal, Methot and alouette.

other than his last game, I didn't think he was out of place. Therrien giving him a wake up call.
