It's been said that he's not comfortable at center.

If that's true, what do expect MT to do?

- pete26

It may be true but I doubt it:

http://www.hockeyinsideou...henyuk-moves-back-to-wing

I’m not the coach,” Galchenyuk told reporters in Brossard about his move back to the wing after starting training camp at centre. “It’s tough for me to evaluate it. To be honest, I try not to think about it at all. Wherever they put me, I’ll try to be comfortable and adjust to it, whether it’s at centre or wing. I was at centre at the start of camp and I felt comfortable, but I also feel good on the wing. It doesn’t bother me at all.”

Hôtel Président et Palais des Sports (ben l'arena juste à côté en fait)

La king dans le coin du président est vraiment maganée.

Crois moi ils aimeraient faire ca mais c'est une question de $$. Et oui une réparation de nid de poule c'est 12-18 mois max.
- Fredobface


Bof pour les $$, je ne sais pas si tu as vu le rallongement de la 410, mais tant qu'à moi c'est de l'argent jeté dans le feu. Au début ils voulaient que ce soit prêt pour les jeux du Canada. Après les jeux du Canada, ils ont dit qu'ils allaient quand même compléter les travaux. Ils viennent tout juste d'ouvrir le viaduc qui se rend à l'Université Bishop's..., et le projet qu'ils avaient en tête au début n'est toujours pas complété pratiquement deux ans après les Jeux de 2013...

Bien entendu, les autoroutes c'est le provincial qui s'en occupe et pas les municipalités, mais cet argent aurait pu être pas mal mieux utilisé.

When was he not 6'4"?
- 3M

When he stopped growing at 6'2.

Probably around 16-17.

So all his life?

Thoughts on the Roy's in the upcoming draft?
- twiztedmike


J. Roy should go top15, but will go 20-25.

N. Roy should and will go 30-45, unless he explodes in the playoffs. He had a pretty good game yesterday.

Nice Pacioretty is 6'4 now.
- Fredobface


i did not think their numbers were that similar... Pacioretty really is having an outstanding season.

There's a good chance the Leafs / Habs draft one of them

Maybe the leafs can draft N. Roy, but can't see the Habs draft him unless he surprises in the playoffs. MTL doesn't have a 2nd rounder, and I doubt they'll use a 1st rounder on him.

The leafs with their 2nd on the other hand...

Fingers crossed that Hunter goes for Crouse

Points wise I expected more from Stamkos. He's not having a horrible season but below his standards. Johnson's play makes it alright for TB.

If it is a bad year for Stamkos when he scores 40 I'm sure the Lightning are very happy with him

Quite the subjective one aren't you, taking away the most meaningful stat, in which Pacioretty happens to be league leading.

i guess their balance affects his point total. surprised he is only a +3... they're a team with a huge goal differential.

If Nashville loses out in the quarter finals then the Leafs get a good shot at Jeremy

Well, DD is a better fit for Patches and you can't move Plek down to the 3rd line.

I'd have to say if you want Galchenyuk in the top six, it's on the wing.

23 of his points have come on the PP, which don't impact +/-.
