[ad_1]
Despite two losses as Montreal Kindins played badly, they remained in his position on the final position on Friday night, heading to their competition in the Rally, North Carolina
Hurricanes usually dominate Montreal and do again, as they won 4-1.

There is almost nothing to praise Montreal in this one. They only had seven shots within two periods. This was the first match with Kaiden Guhle after losing 21 due to quadrilla surgery, and it was not at all troubled.
In fact, after Guhle struggled in the first period of restoring his legs a little, he was strong and fixed in the second and third. Guhle managed to slowly slow down the play when he was pressed. Resolution was excellent. He had no transformations.
I bounced off from Gohlel on the first goal when he was taking his leg, but this is Hoki. Nothing is unique for criticism. Guhle will make a difference in the last 10, especially when the main coach decides a six defender role that will settle on things.
Josh Anderson scored Kindins. Nick Suzuki, Alex Newhawk and Anderson had the only highly dangerous opportunities. Montreal has had difficulty generating opportunities. They had 15 rounds on the target at night.
Wild goats
The last time the Canadians won in Carolina on April 7, 2016. It has been nearly a decade. Not all looks like this. Montreal could not do anything against this shocking suffocating and boring team to see it.
It is effective. They are gathering. They are always on the right side of the impact. They are patient. It is all the good things that the defensive hockey team should have. They wear you.
Hurricanes do not even have a positive goal in the first period. It is the second and third period that proves its dominance. It is not that they put you sleep too. It seems like it.
Montreal fought more fighting in this one, and she paid more attention to detail, but she was not close to enough against Carolina.

As for the news that affects Canada and around the world, he participated in the urgent news alerts that were delivered directly when it occurs.
General Manager Kent Hughes is that the Canadians are aggressive in their season, looking for a second line. It is the only hole in the squad that prevented Montreal from increasing the arrangement further than it was this year.
The first line is the top 10 in the goals this season. The third line is the middle of the package. The fourth line in the past was the fourth line in the league, but even with sub -production last month, it is still 10. However, the second line is one of the worst hockey throughout the season. It is Achilles heel in the club and General Motors knows he needs more.
He will get more with Evan Demidov’s arrival in the fall. Dimidov is the best player in NHL today according to many scouts and publications. Dimidov will be the first real skipper in Kindz’s costume of this century. This is expectation.
However, he and Patrick Lin need a center. They need a center that plays a 200 -foot game to compensate for the defensive obligations of the wings.
There are three ways to acquire players: the draft, the free agency, and through trading. The Canadians almost completed this reconstruction through the draft. They have done a great job, but the final piece has no time for a selection draft to reach four years.
The other two chances have their own challenges. The free agency is difficult for Montreal due to taxes, and for some, until the weather. The best opportunity for Hugos is to take advantage of all capital draft and possibilities to trade with a club that started rebuilding.
The truth is, and it has been said here before, the best center that Hughes can acquire is Sydney Crossby. It has the largest number 5 points on 5 in the league this year. He has two years remaining in his contract. Many suggest that he must end his career in Pittsburg, but the rules of fans do not care about nostalgia. They are interested in rebuilding.
Ask Boston Brows, who was not sad, the cannons have been traded for a long time Raymond Burke to Colorado Avandan. Bruins fans were happy to start rebuilding, and happy when Bourque won the title as well. All that should happen is that the GM Kyle Dubas Penguins realize that they must make movements, and that his list must rebuild.
If it is not Crossby, there are at least ten options for Hyuz that have meaning, some of which are better than others. UFA can be like Sam Bennett. RFA can be like Marco Rossi. However, if this trade is, the next question is what the payment price to get this strong position.
General Motors is trying to make sure that he does not do it is the circulation of a final star. For Hughes, the goal is to trade players who only feel confident that he knows the ceiling of their development. GM cannot get two years of Crosby by trading away from 10 years of Crosby-Lite and inviting this success.
This means that there is a continuation. Dimidov is the next star. Its roof is the moon. It remains. Jacob Fowler is the best goalkeeper in the league today. It remains. David Rennaschir is generally formulated in general, looking at Laval. It should stay.
After that, it becomes difficult. They do not know the ceiling of Michael Hag. He was a player for every game in his college -style season. This is almost every time the NHL player with the potential of the stars. If Hughes have to give the club’s boring to get the second line center, this is a proposal between 50 and 50 that can be discussed on social media for weeks without stopping.
The rest? It should be available to achieve this. This includes Owen Beck, Joshua Roy, Lujan Milux, Adam Ingestrom and Oliver Cabanin. None of the bishops of these players Hughes had gave up the game changed. He knew that he gave NHL caliber, but not a player of the best players.
Here is the expected trade that will happen before the NHL: Hughes gets a large veteran center from the reconstruction team. In contrast, this team gets the first round of Canadiens, which are options in the middle of adolescence, and a higher possibility. Hughes fights for this possibility not to be boring, but a person like Beck or Milux.
The dream here is that Dubas wakes up and realizes that it is time to rebuild in Pittsburgh. Crossby grew up the love of Canadians. It is the perfect suitability.
