Indeed. This season isn't gonna be our season, but hopefully the experience of a full NHL season will help Cole prepared for next year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing that impressed me most in the playoffs was his vision. I thought we were getting another Mike Cammaleri type player - great shot, great release - but Cole has an elite-level vision. I think we're going to be surprised how many assists he gets over his career. I dont think the "goal" nickname will be his only claim to fame ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kinot-2 Posted February 18, 2022 Report Share Posted February 18, 2022 Cole Caufield is the fifth player in NHL history to score a tying goal in the final 10 seconds of regulation and score the overtime winner. Only Mikael Granlund (2020), Marian Gaborik (2014), Marco Sturm (2000), and Neal Broten (1983) have done so. Caufield has scored the most overtime goals by a Canadiens’ rookie (three).

ramcharger440 Posted February 19, 2022 Report Share Posted February 19, 2022 Yep I think Cole has got his groove back! The coaching change has been a breath of fresh air for the team in general as well you can see the guys are enjoying the game so much more! I don't want to pile on with DD but I think he got it in his head that his way was the only way and it just did not work in a funny way MSL's lack of experience means he has to listen to the other guys behind the bench and the collaboration is working well at the moment.

BigTed3 Posted March 16, 2022 Report Share Posted March 16, 2022 If you extrapolate Caufield's stats during his time with MSL as coach over a full season, he would be on track for over 50 goals and 105 points. It's legitimate to question how he only scored once under Ducharme and what that means about how bad a coach Ducharme is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If CC was only put on the 3/4 line with pluggers, he couldn't expect to pot very many goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just coming on to post the same thing! he is a legit potential 40-50 goal man and he had rookie of the year stolen from him by DD! such a shame!

The decision to fire Julien and put in Ducharme gets more and more dubious. Ducharme seems like he was a terrible, terrible coach. I mean, it's clear the entire team gave up on him in one playoff run and 10-15 games to begin this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he keeps this up he'll be in top 4-5 - maybe even top 3 - but I dont see anyone really challenging Seider at this point. 42 points in 60 or so games as a rookie dman? A tough season to be beat. I could see him challenging in goals though. He's 7th (13g) but just 17 games ago he had 1 goal. He's scored 12 goals in 17 games under MSL. At that pace, he would score 14 more for a total of 27 goals... right now Jeannot (21) and Bunting (20) are the only guys with more than 20 goals. Would be quite the feat if he manages to break 25 goals after scoring only 1 in the first 1/2 of the season or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He sure can score! he is the first guy since Richer that I think could score 50 for us. Our first line of Zuke CC Anderson could be devastating next year! with good coaching and a system that lets them play the game it should be fun for a change!

Ducharme had reasonable junior coaching credentials (horrible playoff record except his 2012-14 Mooseheads team where he likely just opened the door for Drouin Mackinnon, Weegar, Ehlers etc)., and was a coach in waiting under Julien for 2 1/2 years. For a GM who was supposed to be close to his players, Bergevin seriously misjudged the coach and we all paid for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graeme-1 Posted March 21, 2022 Report Share Posted March 21, 2022 Just a huge relief, I assume I wasn't the only one worried that those playoffs were an anomaly and he was basically going to be a bust: talented player who couldn't adjust to the NHL game. The biggest thing isn't just that he's scoring goals and getting points, but he actually looks good out there. He's never going to be as well rounded as someone like Suzuki, but he looks confident and is making smart plays with the puck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One interest point DownGoesBrown brought up on one of his podcasts is voters do have a bit of a recency bias: there could be a big difference between starting hot and finishing hot. With that said, it's definitely a huge longshot, but I threw down $5 on it a few weeks back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
