Team: 2022-23 Montreal Canadiens

Initial Creation Date: Aug. 27, 2022

Published: Aug. 27, 2022

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

Everyone's got an opinion. I am predicting this team will not be as bad as everyone hopes they are. HuGo is going to have some tough decisions to make early about whether they try and be a bubble playoff team or trade players asap to legally tank. On a full year I see this a team that scores a ton of goals (~275, but probably loses a lot of games due to poor defence & goaltending)

That being said these are my individual player predictions:

Drouin: I wish it wasn't the case, but I think Drouin will have a terrible year and will be in the stands by Christmas. Not much MSL can do if his wrists are just done
Byron: Never plays again

Suzuki: 25-45-70
Caufield: 40-30-70
Dvorak: 20-35-55

Monahan: 15-30-45
Slafkovsky: 15-25-40
Dadonov: 20-25-45

Dach: 15-25-40
Pitlick: 15-20-35
Anderson: 25-20-45

Evans: 15-20-35
Armia: 10-20-30
Gallagher: 15-20-35

Hoffman: 10-10-20 (Plays 41 games)

Matheson: 12-28-40
Savard: 3-14-17

Edmundson: 3-17-20
Barron: 5-20-25

Guhle: 3-12-15
Wideman: 8-32-40

Harris: 1-9-10

This team isn’t scoring at a rate above or near 3.35 goals per game this season

Understood sir. Which one of my scoring predictions for a player do you disagree with out of curiosity?

As I mentioned, everyone has an opinion... I think they score a lot and still lose a lot of games. They scored a TON after MSL took over.

i dont think you want dvorak on the wing, he was very good with faceoffs last season
i think you have to have dvorak and dach on the same line (second? third? depends on how monahan does) because dvorak is good at faceoffs and dach is not

He's gonna have to learn. Dvorak may be able to help. My thinking was that Suzuki & Dvorak would split the faceoffs and Dvorak would do the dirty work along the boards for the dynamic duo.
