Big revelation about Joshua Roy, Lane Hutson, David Reinbacher, Logan Mailloux, and Oliver Kapanen
For prospects and young players in an organization like the Canadiens, it is important to follow recommendations and work hard to succeed.
There is so much competition that a simple lack of effort can completely derail their careers. Talent is nice, but fitness is essential to achieve their goals.
In this sense, the players have started their summer preparation accordingly, and we can say there have been good changes.
Joshua Roy lost 10 lbs, which will undoubtedly help him skate faster. David Reinbacher lost 2 lbs, Lane Hutson gained 10 lbs and will still need to work on that.
Logan Mailloux lost 7 lbs and it shows on the ice, as he looks like he's flying. Then Oliver Kapanen gained 16 lbs, which is quite impressive.
Of course, there are slight height differences that are not due to effort but rather to the measuring device used, but in terms of weight, we can say the prospects have met the challenges they faced.
I don't know about you, but I truly believe the Canadiens will have one of the best, if not the best top-four defenses in the NHL in a few years.
With Lane Hutson, Kaiden Guhle, Logan Mailloux, and David Reinbacher, it will simply be a nightmare for opposing teams. And we mustn't forget Arber Xhekaj on the third pair!
