yep, he said the kid needs to decide what role he wants to play, what kind of player he wants to be. and then take action to make sure he becomes that. a big step he said.

he does have the talent to step it up a notch, every player is different and some may need a little kick in the butt (no code lolll) to develop properly, so setting the bar higher might be the proper thing to do in his case. he seems to have the right attitude, he'll be fine imho

I hope you are right Pat. but if kk had a good season, took a step, MB would not have traded for Staal. imho.
yes they need to be patient, but for how long?
they've been patient with Drouin (before this spring incident), what did that do? the guy is 26 and we are still waiting...

Raanta is a UFA. Grubauer is a UFA. Mrazek is a UFA. Dubnyk is a UFA.
Jones, Bishop, Kakhonen and Vanecek were left unprotected.
MAF could be available.

Kuemper is available as well. He's put up solid numbers on a below average team. This will be the only time in my life that I agree with Tanner in that I think he is an underrated goalie.

plenty of goalies. and goalies are a different beast. often we see some come out of nowhere and have a good run. who would have thought Billington would lead the Blues to the cup? or that Drieger would steal Bob's spot in FLA?
Habs don't need to sign a top5 goalie to a 6 y deal. they just need a guy for a year or 2 while Primeau is ready.

yeah you can have that talk with monster and habs8888, too early for me lol.. and the comparison with Douin will be flawed until we actually know what his situation is

it's too early to count him out, to know what he'll become.
but it is time for him to improve. a lot. and rather sooner than later.

yeah, let's hope we get a good run "out of nowhere" from a goalie... I'll stop now, because we're going around in circles, but I don't see how this sounds like a truly decent plan
