You can win a lot of games when your fourth line can score whenever they feel like it.

[@HabsDiscussions]

Evans and armia are so damn underrated, hope they can keep both around for a relatively decent price 🤞

Heineman is a dawg too

[@HabsDiscussions]

​@@maximusrusso8758 Heino is lehky mixed with gally, he's unreal

[@FischerFan]

Armia has always been underrated. He is dangerous as a penalty killer because he is always a threat to score short-handed.

[@RT-nh6mw]

@@HabsDiscussions + a wicked wrist shot

[@Mr.Steve1122]

Armia is the definition of inconsistent. He'll be a ghost for 3 games, then looks like the Habs best player. I think he's gone after this season though

[@Capo51]

Canadiens have after Patrik Laine joined them, stepped up and started to beliebe on themselves and play their fast skating game. Montreal' s fourth line has been great too. Jake Evans and Joel Armia especially.

[@lexyroy1330]

@@kevinrichards7437Evans and Beck can be in the lineup in the same time i can see a fourth Line with them and a Florian Xhekaj type of player

[@VoIcanoman]

@@kevinrichards7437 Yeah, but Dvorak is likely gone after this year. It's a shame, but he hasn't lived up to his potential. So the future centers of the Habs are looking like Suzuki, Dach, Beck (as early as next year) and eventually Hage, but by the time Hage is in the NHL (which I anticipate will take 3 total years in college, and at least part of a year in Laval, i.e. he joins the Habs mid-2027-28 season at the earliest), a hypothetical extension for Evans could be in its final year or two, depending on term. So I expect him to be re-signed for a minimum of 4 years. We still need him. At least I think we do.

[@AAAAAA79473]

Evans and Armia have been phenomenal tonight, really shaped up after the horrendous match against the Pens. 5 wins in their last 6 and is 3 points back of Ottawa. The team is pushing for a WC spot, seeing progress is what's important.

[@LastLetterisZed702]

The Habs had great secondary scoring. Caufield & Suzuki can't score every single game. That's why players like Newhook, Evans & Armia are so important.

[@davidnabess8494]

When was the last time we got 2 wins in Florida? The boys played another solid game and Monty shut the door on some quality chances. It's looking better every game.

These last two games should improve the team's GAA.

[@magicmike7198]

Evans is truly a gem on the bottom six. I hope our pseudo-connoisseurs won't want to trade him for another 2nd or 3rd round pick that probably won't see the light of day for 5 years. We are lucky to have him. Why trade him and then look for another player like him? In addition, he was “born” inside the organization.

[@Conquerer.D.K]

I agree, at the right price keep him

[@philippetessier6126]

Because if some GM wants to go full tampa bay and trade 3 1st rounder for a 28 year old UFA, we still need to listen. Of course, we're not gonna trade him for a second...

[@heyoou]

2 things that are impressing me now and finally with Mtl. They are getting 30+ shots consistently now and finally outshooting Tampa by a wide margin. Another positive is forechecking has gotten more aggressive and as a consequence shots are up and scoring is up big time last 10 games or so.
