Tell me about it. I have him in both my fantasy keeper leagues.

as a Habs fan... should've know you'd got for 3rd liners

Kapanen has been terrible.
- AdamFrench

He was a tad above terrible last game...but it was Detroit

Habotage strikes again.
- Steven_Seagull

I took a bunch of Oilers this week, that should pretty much put an end to their season...and mine.

Really? You have an issue with them but not Brown?
- AdamFrench

the moustache alone makes him deserve a place in that lineup.
(and i'm really surprised nobody mentioned ian white yet - shows how many bad d-man leafs had over last 25 years )

Well to be fair, it's a pretty deep draft.

But still disappointing.

- Garnie

he's pretty clearly not comfortable on the left side... why Babcock continues to push this thing...

swap him with Mikheyev or Moore or whoever...

not helping Kapanen , not helping Tavares and Marner either.... dumb to continue

White had two great years. Sad to see his fall.

Babcock is all about long term , and he probably wants to give Kapanen a fair chance to get more familiar and succeed in his new 'challenge'.
For all the criticism Babcock gets, he's actually quite consistent in giving younger players a fair chance and not throwing them under the bus after 1 game.

i actually do.
don't question my memory :D

It's not memory we question.
It's the intelligence.

To be fair, he did say it was only about players he saw play.

In what world does this lineup require tinkering to the point you legitimately need to test out a marincin/Holl pairing.

LOL. Babcock should be put in a home for that one.

I’d give him a few more games myself, plus line 3 and 4 were better then 1-2 last game 🤷🏻‍♂️

I remember this when I next picnic or visit a park... and find a seagull gets annoying close.

Small rocks look so much like fries - after you baited them with the first two or three



unfortunately - if you hit them in the head you don't really do much damage

Do you recall how he treated Marner and Nylander? Put them on the 4th line..

- Steven_Seagull

Don’t go all Gullster on us now.

Babcock understands that you treat the really talented (Marner and Nylander) different than the others.

Not all the time. Holl bagged two in two and looked good. Press box.

Not remotely connected to what we are talking about but sure I'll bite.

Brown/Z for Ceci/Harp I would say so far goes to Ottawa. It's been only Ceci so far and he's been pretty poop defensively. Brown playing well in all situations, and even Z hasn't been too bad. It's early but...
