Whatever strength he once had is now gone. He relies completely on his position and his smarts defensively. Offensively, still decent. Could do worse for a 7/8 defenseman. Not sure how he'd hold up across the entire season and playoffs as a number 6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire Tortorella 2,653 Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Also @boubabiif you want to look up one of the worse injuries I've ever had described to me, look up Mark Streit's "pubic plate detachment" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beaviss 4,957 Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Vancouver i think had one of the best off seasons this year out of any team except ofc Vegas. Picking up quality younger players(for free agency) to keep the team semi competitive and give the prospects time to develop. Del Zotto is a great 4-5 dman that can shoot but needs more offensive freedom. Sam is a great specialty 3rd line Center or 4th line. Burmistrov could be a gem 3rd liner if developed properly. All in all great off season for the Nucks just got to sign Bo now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FBR 158 Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 I really don't understand why people think that Streit's signing means Markov is done in Montreal. In what fucking world does a 7th defenseman signed 700K should affect our 2nd defenseman? We still have 8.5M left and we have too many defensemen right now. Davidson is probably getting dealt (if Bergevin realizes that he's done basically nothing this off-season). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boubabi 4,725 Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Fuck markov. We just have too many left handed D now. Alzner will just play markov's minutes and thats pretty much it. Davidson still has potential to become something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boubabi 4,725 Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Lets be honest, the pairing will be like so A:zner - Weber Benn - Petry Schlemko - Davidson Streit - Jerabek Could potentially see Schlemko with weber since he has a decent mobility, and put alzner petry as our shutdown D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes he was as a cap for abit. But his footspeed just isnt there. It was never great but hes been degrading pretty quick. I was fine letting him walk. Hes gunna be a bottom 6 guy in a few years PK specalist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boubabi 4,725 Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Beaulieu knew how to skate, but that was pretty much it. I think the Habs heavily favored positioning D instead of mobile D. Plz, not every team needs to be built like an All-Star team, Alzner first pairing isn't optimal, but it's what we have. Pens D wasn't excellent, but just good enough, that's what we are reaching I guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nashville, Ducks, Pens, hell even to some extent Oilers. I think its held back the caps a ton our defense outside of Shattinkirk, and Carlsson arent very mobile. Alzner, Orlov, Niskannen etc are all decent offense but not the greatest mobility. I mean obviously they also need to be able to play. I personally think also the Habs are gunna be burned by the Beulieu trade but thats just me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boubabi 4,725 Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 ron hainsey mobile ? Euhh Schultz and Maata were, can't say that for other dudes Beaulieu is trash, lets be honest. Supposed to be an offensive D...never was. In the end just a guy with a ton of problems in his own zone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eaglesfan036 4,598 Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 (edited) Simply put, Claude Giroux barely scored during 5-on-5 situations during the 2016-17 season. He tallied just 18 points in over 1100 minutes of play, good for a painful 0.94 Points/60. That ranked him 12th among Flyers forwards, ahead of only Roman Lyubimov and Pierre-Edouard Bellemare. Yes, that’s right — even Chris VandeVelde and Dale Weise were more efficient 5v5 scorers last season than Claude Giroux. His status relative to peers around the league was even more cringe-inducing. Giroux ranked 327th in Points/60 among NHL forwards with at least 400 minutes at 5v5. If we assume that players in the top-90 scored like first liners last year (30 teams, three players on each line), then Giroux fell into the bucket of a fourth line scorer in 2016-17, behind luminaries like Luke Glendening and Cedric Paquette. @Devise @Fire Hakstol @boubabi Giroux is not a 1C Edited August 2, 2017 by eaglesfan036 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
