Sujet: Is this a joke
I think both teams could have used an actual preseason lol, that being said the refs are in mid season form, missed calls below:

Thought the penalty on Anderson was soft, refs allowed the leafs back into the game. Vesey initiated contact and Anderson just powered through him. Soft call.

There were some missed calls the other way too, I just don't have videos, Cross Checks on Matthews (although Matthews broke his stick over Chiarot after the whistle earlier so probably even), trip on Mikheyev breakaway definitely effected his shot, trip on Muzzin early in the game.

The missed calls are pretty much even, it's the soft Anderson call that gets me.

Edit: Then the refs nice assist for the tying goal... but the refs are in play can't fault them there justa bad bounce.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SmugTkachuk</b></div><div>I'm not overlooking anything in that regard, they added players and they have graduating players, like every other team in the league, they're not that much better. KK is a good middle six at best, Suziki has been thrown into a huge role for a young kid will be interesting, Romanov will be exciting to watch develop.

Carey Price was mentioned in the first reply goof ball, you're talking about over looking things but the comprehension in your camp is lacking. Language barrier maybe?</div></div>

They added Anderson, Toffoli, Romanov, Edmundson, Allen, Perry, Frolik.

They lost Domi.

Your first reply wasn't a reply to anyone, the thread started didn't mention price, the comments above your initial reply didn't mention price, you mentioned him twice unprompted as some strawman argument.

Do you think every MTL fan's primary language is French? You're just trolling, cheers.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SmugTkachuk</b></div><div>In that case should the Habs not be aiming to just finish above .500 this year? Baby steps.. I picked 5 forwards that you would expect to perform in the playoffs, Anderson and Toffoli are in there and they were added this off season. This isn't cherry picking it is looking at two teams and saying one is vastly better than the other and anyone with high expectations like this post is saying is depending strictly on Carey Price, if you're talking about the size they added, Joel Edmunson isn't exciting at all. You likely got better in the Atlantic and added size to play against the Panthers, Sabres, Leafs but the teams out West that build their teams for the Pacific have been working on that for years to match up with Vegas, Anaheim for years, the Kings.</div></div>

You're overlooking a lot of things, and I'm not going to get into details with you, it's not necessary. Like Suzuki, KK, Romanov, etc.

I did not mention Carey Price. If I did I would have pointed to his GSAx of 11 (in only 10 games), along with his .936 sv% and 1.78 GAA when he was rested before playoffs. Which he will be with the addition of Allen, who had a .927 sv% and 2.15 GAA and was top 10 on GSAx last year in only 24 games. But again I didn't mention price, you did.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SmugTkachuk</b></div><div>If you offered me a playoff core of:
Tatar - 0.31 PPG in playoffs
Drouin - 0.7
Gallagher - 0.51
Anderson - 0.38
Toffoli - 0.36
Weber
Petry

Or

Matthews - 0.76
Marner - 0.84
Nylander - 0.6
Simmonds - 0.47
Thronton - 0.74
Muzzin
Reiley

I think ten out of ten people take the Leafs team going into the playoffs. Anyone picking the Habs in the decision above is strictly banking on Carey Price stealing multiple rounds on their way to the cup, we have seen he can steal a round or two for sure but at some point the team in front of him has to be better. Andersen can still take a game or two and bail our the Leafs but they will certainly score more than the Habs and the defensive game is not that different between the two teams.</div></div>

Well I mean, the thing that has people excited about MTL is their size and depth (and even experience, they added 5 stanley cup winners this offseason). So maybe cherry picking 7 players from each team and comparing them isn't the whole story?

Everyone knows the leafs have high end talent, and that's gotten them where in the playoffs exactly? Can't even win a play-in round let alone a playoff series. The leafs haven't won a playoff series in 15 years... their goal should be make the 2nd round, baby steps.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Xaviers_Crown</b></div><div>Certainly a possibility but I get the feeling the team doesn't want to lose Byron's leadership and ability to play up and down the line-up</div></div>

Agreed, Byron's speed is necessary, guy has two breakaway goals in the habs scrimmages, he's shown he still has it. He was also the teams leading scorer in the upset over Pittsburgh.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>A_Habs_fan</b></div><div>Byron over Frolik and Belzile over Dauphin</div></div>

If Byron is in over Frolik then the team is over the cap, in which case I think Perry and Frolik are put on the taxi squad. So that would be:
LW Frolik, C Poehling, RW Perry, D Juulsen, D Fluery, G Lindgren

If I was picking. Probably send Poehling, Juulsen, and Fluery to Laval once their season starts and put other vets on the taxi squad.

Sujet: Habs fans what are your thoughts on KK
Definite top 6, too soon to comment on his ceiling IMO.

Had a better rookie season than Dach, Hughes, Kakko, etc., all of which are still considered top prospects around the league. Crapped the bed the next season, but bounced back in a big way in playoffs with 4 goals and dominated scoring chances when he was on the ice.

He then went to Finland, and had no pts in first 4 games before finishing with 8 pts in last 6.

When he was drafted, Timmins said they were taking the player that may not be the most NHL ready but had the most potential in a few years, I'm not sure why KK making the NHL in his first season has caused habs fans to forget that.

For comparison sake, Suzuki is a year older, so KK still has more development time. My prediction (which is likely not that popular) is that KK will one day become MTL's #1C ahead of Suzuki. I don't know when that will happen, but I think KK's size and powerful shot will give him the edge over Suzuki once his game is fully developed. Both players are considered to be below average skaters with high IQ, KK has the edge in size, so if Suzuki can improve his skating, much like Brayden Point had to do to take his game to the next level, then he could also be an elite C.

So in summary, a top 6 C, ceiling is not clear yet - I think this season will be very telling.

My understanding is we don't need to worry about performance bonuses - this is from this site:

"What is a Performance Bonus?

A Performance Bonus can be given to a player in addition to their salary. Performance bonuses are only paid to the player if they meet the requirements as defined by the bonus. <strong>Performance bonuses count against the salary cap; however, a team can exceed the salary cap due to performance bonuses by the maximum performance bonus cushion amount of 7.5 percent of the upper limit.</strong> Not all players are eligible for Performance Bonuses, and to receive a bonus within their contract, a player must meet one of the following criteria:The player is on an entry-level contract.The player has signed a one-year contract and is over 35 years old.The player has signed a one-year contract after returning from a long-term injury (has played 400 or more games, and spent 100 or more days on the Injured Reserve in the last year of their most recent contract)."

To me that means MTL can max out their cap and still pay out $6.1125M in performance bonuses, no?
