cgb6397 Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Just a thought: weird situation tonight, Matteau playing on a first line after not making the world junior team while Galchenyuk was arguably the best player for team USA and they're in the same position in the NHL.

Devs1965 Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 He is just not ready so why push him, his 18. They pushed Teddy and I do not see him turning that corner to a NHL player. Don't do the same to Matteau! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaneykoIsGod Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 I look forward to seeing what our lineup will be minus Tedenby and Matteau, plus Henrique and Darche. Matteau has promise, but now just isn't his time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't do the same to Matteau! Teddy waited a year before coming over. Though in hindsight that was probably too soon anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'7' Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 I look forward to seeing what our lineup will be minus Tedenby and Matteau, plus Henrique and Darche. Matteau has promise, but now just isn't his time. Yep, it's time for Tedenby to go as well. It's a contact league and he gets thrown around like a rag doll out there.

redruM Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 I say keepo Matteau, and Either Play Larsson or send him down, he will not improve if he's in street cloths during every game... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin226 Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 I'm so torn on this.. I think Matteau could stay and be a decent regular for us, but I also feel like his overall production and contribution won't justify him losing a full year of eligibility down the road.. Then again, if we lose him then who replaces him? Not sure we have the F depth, so sending him back to juniors could seal this team's fate for this year Thank god I'm not Lou here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triumph Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Harri Pesonen? Matteau is getting 10 minutes a game of ice time and hasn't really been that good, I don't think replacing him should be hard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PWW Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Harri Pesonen? Matteau is getting 10 minutes a game of ice time and hasn't really been that good, I don't think replacing him should be hard. Bingo. No reason to keep him around. He's not doing anything that can't be replaced very easily. Outside of a couple of shots he really hasn't added much and it's not worth wasting a year of his ELC to keep him around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devilsfan118 Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Shame he didn't score on that power move yesterday. Almost! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
