Karine Hains: In Hainsight: A Good First Impression The Canadiens lost to the Devils in their first preseason game, but some prospects made a good first impression.

Simon Nemec, 2nd overall pick after Slafkovsky, didn't steal the show either.

They'll both be fine down the line, give them time.

That D had to be crazy young.....as in none older that what 23-24?

It was a good showing, with plenty of things for the kids to take away and learn from.

Both clubs ran split squads, so it made for interesting play at times.

Dobes looked good.....

Playing chess> Playing checkers

Joel Edmundson won’t skate today and is out with an upper body injury that he sustained during Sunday’s scrimmage. The Dman is meeting with the medical team today to determine the severity of the injury. #Caps

The man is completely broken.

Can't believe we got something for him.

The Capitals sent a third- and a seventh-round picks in the 2024 draft to the Canadiens for the veteran defenseman.

Montreal is retaining half of Edmundson's salary in the final year of his contract, which means Washington gets him at a bargain salary cap hit of $1.75 million to sit on LTIR.

Even if he were to play, we all saw the level he was at last year.

He was playing worse than our rookies every night.

Meh, not our problem anymore.

Seems like a good dude, but going out on injuries just sucks for anyone.

Oh well.

Everytime they want to fire him he asks them why Normand Flynn isn't getting fired before him.

Since they don't have an answer, the man keeps his job.

Oh he has to love these guys to justify having them spew their nonsense every week.

Mesar will never play in the NHL.

Just the fact that you are here talking about them justifies their presence, it's a media, they want to create a buzz, negative or positive for the exposure.

go habs!

Mesar will never play in the NHL.
