  • Situation: We get Calgary's 2025 1st round pick, but if it is top 10 we get Florida's instead
  • Calgary's current draft position: 16th
  • Best case: Calgary pick drops to 11th (and doesn't win lottery)
  • Worst case: Calgary pick enters top 10, we get Florida's 1st round pick instead
  • Summary: we want Calgary (85 pts) to drop in the standings to 22nd, where Columbus is (77 pts)

Lane Hutson during the Habs four-game winning streak: 1 goal, 6 assists, 23:42 mins per game. On the ice for 7 even-strength goals scored & ZERO even-strength goals against. 5 even-strength points & 2 powerplay points

Discussion Honestly, if they make the playoffs, Martin St-Louis deserves some Jack Adams considerations.

232 Upvotes

The man patiently dragged a defensively deficient team of young guns through the wringer, not giving up when the defeats piled up, until they came out the other side playing successful hybrid defense. I feel like, if it was any other coach, they'd have panicked and thrown the plan out the window with that adversity. If that's not what the Jack Adams is for, I dunno what it is.

Discussion It’s a crime that Pierre Houde won’t get to call playoff games for the rest of his career.

Upvotes

Unless I’m happily mistaken, with Rogers keeping the rights there’s a good chance TVA Sports also keeps their rights. As much as it would hurt me and RDS I hope Mr. Houde finds his way to TVA so we can enjoy him calling the all the playoffs runs and Stanley cup winning goals coming in the near future. He definitely deserves it.
