New season, new thread. Maybe a Habs fan should have a different moniker instead of Kotkaniemi15.


Maybe. I’ll give it a few months and then we’ll see how I feel.

If we’re assuming that the team that is playing in the evening practices first and that teams always practice in the mornings on game days, the preseason schedule will look like:

Sept. 25th - MTL @ TOR - Team White
Sept. 26th - Red vs White - Both
Sept. 27th - TOR @ MTL - Team Red
Oct. 1st - MTL @ OTT - Team Red
Oct. 2nd - OTT @ MTL - Team White
Oct. 5th - MTL @ TOR - Main Team
Oct. 7th - MTL @ OTT - Main Team

So Charles-David Beaudoin is a 27 year old who played in the ICE Hockey League last year after spending the majority of his previous season in the ECHL. I am at a complete loss as to how he is practicing in group A/B while Tobie Paquette-Bisson is not.

Also, the habs must really like Alexandre Fortin. He did play 24 games in the NHL in 18-19, but he also had 3 points (all assists) in 23 games in the AHL last season.

Looks like Toffoli will be out 3rd assistant captain when Byron isn’t in the lineup.

Last year when we were without Gallagher, Byron, & Weber they kept switching it between Toffoli, Anderson, Edmundson, and Chiarot. (With Petry and Perry ahead of both of them)

Nick Suzuki has been spotted with A on his jersey.

Ok then. Well they’re probably just doing whoever could possibly get it then.

Since Gallagher has an A. Byron should have an A, but he has a long-term injury and might be in and out of the lineup. Petry should have an A, since he’s the oldest player on the team and wore an A all of last year when everyone was out.

Then Suzuki, Toffoli, and maybe others would be 4th in line when one of those 3 is out.

So Ylonen isn't vaxed because of someone in his family's reaction to the vaccine i think, which is at least a logical reason

Well that’s good to know. Hopefully that means he’ll be back in a normal position one way or another next season.

Isnt the tweet wrong?

Because of a traumatic event in his family, he developed a fear of the vaccine. That seems totally like a personal reason, not a medical reason. It could be a medical reason if the event in his family might have been caused by something hereditary

Anyway, good for him and for us

Well it’s up for debate. So all we know is that there’s one more habs player who is not vaccinated, and we aren’t sure why.

So as long as Jesse gets his 2nd shot before October 9th, he won’t miss any games. If he gets it after the 9th and before the 23rd, he’ll only miss 2 games.

Awesome. Good luck!

I was a GM for the Panthers a few years ago. I don’t have the time anymore, but it was fun when I did it.

I joined as the AGM to the infamous DavidBooth7, who got banned on CapFriendly, ended up blowing up on Twitter, and got banned off Twitter earlier this year.

Also I was a very bad GM, as I was relatively new to hockey and CapFriendly. I traded Barkov, Ekblad, and Logan Stanley for Jack Eichel and some cap dumps.

I also had a thing for trading for Habs players, giving up a package for Subban to immediately flip him for Weber.

I’m about to be going through a really busy portion of my life right now. Although maybe I’ll check back in in February, when my schedule opens up a lot.

Oh god, poor Teasdale. Just brutal. Hope he recovers soon.

Brook and Byron we knew about. Unless they predicted wrong, Carey should at least be back for the start of the regular season.

Hopefully Hoffman’s injury is minor.
