Description

Can Caufield perform like Debrincat and score almost 30 goals in his first season with the habs? Or will he need time in the AHL? Will he better than Debrincat? The reason I compare him to debrincat is because both of them are the same size, weight, and shoot the same side. IMO Caufield has the better shot of the 2, but its yet to be seen in the NHL. What are habs fans thoughts on him? Please keep the discussion civil.

Im not a Habs fan but I go to Wisconsin so i watch most games. Last year I wasn't too sure he would translate well because he didn't really have that good of hands and his speed was a little lacking. But let me tell you, this year hes a whole different player. He's fast, he's got dangles, and his shot is as clean as ever. I still like Debrincat as the overall better player (okay maybe I'm a little biased) but Caufield is definitely going to be a player. Also, I know its easy to compare them, but you dont have to. I think Caufield has a better shot but I think Debrincat has developed his 2 way game pretty nicely, so if Caufield can do that then sky is the limit.

I think he could play today. The biggest thing will be playing him with the right players. He needs some good nhl playmakers like drouin or Tatar. I’d think you need one of those two on with him. Tatar-kk-caufield.

I’d like him to get a shot at the end of the season. Even with the quarantine he could play 12-15 games
