I hope we all keep our expectations of Pouliot in check. He's not yet even flirted with his expectations, and I hope the rabid Habs fans don't expect him to immediately get on a 40 goal pace. I fear for this young kid…

I agree Ron!

Timing is good… don’t throw him to the wolves right off the bat!

Great timing….With the next 6 games on the road, he will get a chance to “fit in” and get his feet wet before the Bell Centre Crowd….I wish him the best of Luck….!!

I agree Kyle.

He’s got loads of talent… I don’t think the scouts made any mistake on that…

But I really hope that no one expects him to be our savior on offense.

Let’s say he plays and scores 1 or 2 goals in his first game…. good or bad??

Confidence builder….. but instant expectations.

If he can build chemistry over the next 20 games with a Gomez and maybe Gionta…. that would be awesome.

I’m not really setting any “target numbers” at all on where I think he should be.
