Armia can say thank you to his mom and dad for his size. being the only Habs that big assures him a spot in the lineup. otherwise he'd already be gone imo.

so no, he won't get better, no he won't score more goals, no he shouldn't play top6.

Meh, Armia is not one of the top 5 problems for the Habs to deal with TBH. He is a 3rd liner, getting 3rd line money, defensively responsible, has a some size, will pot 30-40 points. If he can hold a spot for a few years til someone else comes takes his place, that is fine. I'd rather the kids spend time developing in Laval, not rushed to the NHL, especially with the new emphasis on development.

The problem is that he may end up in our top 6 this year.

It's Byron, a kid, or Armia. Maybe Lehkonen, which is not better.

The problem is when he's on the powerplay.

I know he scored that one carreer powerplay goal last year but still

I don't mind Armia...he's good on the PK, and can contribute offensively here and there.

He’s an ok 3rd liner. He’s actually very good at driving zone entries and the net...jut no finish.

Can’t complain about him.

His best asset is puck protection, unfortunately he doesn't really know what to do with the puck
