Bossy? That would be sweet. A natural sniper. Could definitely improve the power play. A hard & accurate shooter. Maybe in time for the playoffs?

Not sure what the kid has to do to prove he is ligit at this point. There's really nothing he can do to prove anything at this point - he's proven everything he can at the NCAA level but he still needs to show he can make the jump to the NHL. Thats not a slight on him, he just hasnt had the opportunity. The history books are full of players who were elite at various other levels but could not make the jump to the NHL and the fact he has a disadvantage (size) doesnt help. Sure, plenty of players who were small have been elite in the NHL, just like bad skaters or players with poor hockey sense have been 50 goal men, but it still slants the journey uphill. At this point I am cautiously optimistic he will be a quality player for us - at worst 20-25 goals, at best 40+ - but that optimism is tempered by the fact that you "aint proven nothing" till you've done it at the NHL level.

Curious to see where they stand after this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

campabee82 Posted February 27, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2021 Cole played his 4th last game of the regular season yesterday. He had 2 assists in a 2-1 OT win for the Badgers against Ohio State. Next game is tonight vs Ohio State then 2 games vs Penn State and off to the playoffs.

I think it all depends on when the Badgers season ends, if it is a first round exit and we are in the top 3 in the division then I can see him doing the 14 day quarantine and getting a couple games with the Habs maybe as part of a rotation. If the Badgers win the Championship and we are sitting 4th or just outside the playoffs then I think he serves his quarantine then I see him going to Laval as they will only be about halfway through their season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know he's said he wants to start his pro career asap but things can change and you cant go back once you switch. Will be interesting to see.

With the money he would make he could go back it is not like a lifetime ban! lol I think he is pretty keen to get playing I would like to see him in a game or two if for nothing else than to see where he is at in his development.

RCAF48 Posted March 2, 2021 Report Share Posted March 2, 2021 I'm still not sure he intends to sign with Montreal. We gambled when we chose him and I'm not convinced we are a winner yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any draft choice can actually hold out if they want to actually. A lot of players are choosing to go to school, if not going straight to the NHL .

He's always been super animated when asked about coming to montreal. He wanted to come this last year but MB seemed to tell him they felt 1 more year of Uni would be best.

claremont Posted March 6, 2021 Report Share Posted March 6, 2021 Wisconsin is 5th ranked this year likely because of Caufield and Holloway ascensions. Final season game is today 1:30. He’s been deadly on their power play - I certainly hope he translates that to the nhl and 3 on 3 where we desperately need that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
