Cayden Primeau is simply having a terrible start to the season with the Montreal Canadiens.
It’s really unfortunate, but it’s the reality.
Some even go so far as to say that, if Cayden Primeau did his job, the Habs would be in the mix right now.
Looking closely at the stats, it’s hard to disagree.
A change is needed in the Canadiens’ crease
Here’s the proposed solution.
Why not call up goaltender Connor Hughes to see if he can be a solid NHL goalie?
It could turn out to be an incredible discovery.
I understand that management wants to protect Jakub Dobes, but Hughes is 28 years old, so there’s no need to leave him in Laval for too long.
Connor Hughes: “He looks like an NHL goaltender”
Several experts agree with this opinion, so why not give him a chance right away?
So, what do you think? Should the Montreal Canadiens take a chance on Hughes? Because clearly, Samuel Montembeault cannot play every game from now until the end of the season.
I love the idea.
Hughes has a 1.85 goals-against average this season with a save percentage of 0.935 (6 wins and 1 loss) – AHL.
Primeau has a 4.67 goals-against average this season with a save percentage of 0.845 (1 win and 3 losses) – NHL.
