Who is going to lead the Montreal Canadiens in goals and overall scoring??

The team will be relatively low-scoring, but someone’s gotta score.

In part it depends on whether Drouin plays C or W - if the latter I think he has a good chance at 60-65 points - either way he?ll lead the team with 55+. I know some will disagree, as playing C he might garner more As, I just think he’ll be more prolific if he’s on the W.

As for goals, almost certainly Gallagher (barring injury) - I’ll wager 27. Tatar next with 25.

Just for fun I'm saying Domi leads the team in points (followed closely by Drouin - a new dynamic duo) and Lehkonen leads the team in goals with 33.

I really don't know what the Canadiens will do with the Benn, Schlemko and Alzner situation.
We can't put those 3 guys in the lineup if we want to see Petry, Reilly, Juulsen, Mete and Ouellet

[ericdaoust]

I think Alzner stays because of his contract. Benn/Schlemko are in danger of waivers/demotion or a trade somehow due to the numbers game.

I can live with those pairings :

Reilly-Petry
Ouellet-Alzner
Mete-Juulsen

[ericdaoust]

I'm not even convinced Ouellet is on the team, although he would be a decent plug. He's interchangeable with Schlemko and Benn really.

From what I've seen Ouellet is a better skater than Benn, no? Benn has been conspicuous to me for quite some time as being slow and easily pressured into a mistake. I don't want to see him on the roster this year.

I have no idea why this is being mentioned here lol. Interchangeable DOES NOT MEAN they are the same stylistically.

McCarron cleared waivers

I mentioned it becuase they are on the Canadiens?? If the Habs want an up tempo style this year then would not Oulette be a better fit stylistically than Benn? Honestly I can’t tell if you are being a jerk or don’t understand my post. I don’t really understand yours. Can you clarify?
