Victor FindlayHOST
two.
Victor FindlayHOST
Cowan was big in the first round series too against the Laval Rocket.
Victor FindlayHOST
That best of five, that went the distance to five games.
Victor FindlayHOST
The Marlies edged by Laval.
MaddyHOST
Okay, so Fowler was the 69th overall draft pick in the 2023 entry draft.
MaddyHOST
He was called up to the NHL from the Canadiens affiliate Laval Rocket for 10 games in the middle of the 25-26 season after both Sam Moultonbolt and Jakob Dobesch struggled.
MaddyHOST
He was called up by the Canadiens again later in the season and remained in Montreal for the remainder of that season and the playoff run as the backup goaltender for Dobesch.
CorriganHOST
Mm-hmm.
Ian BoisvertHOST
And I think the Canadians are thrilled with that outcome because it means that they don't have to have Jacob Fowler up in Montreal sitting.
Ian BoisvertHOST
He can go down to Laval and play big, you know, play a lot of games for the Laval Rocket.
Ian BoisvertHOST
But I'm very curious why Marty was very, he was not, I don't want to say noncommittal.
Ian BoisvertHOST
I think Marty knows who he's starting.
Sean CampbellHOST
He's ready.
Mitch GalloHOST
He was the Laval Rockets' best defenseman last year.
Mitch GalloHOST
And I think, yes, it's hard because I know a lot of people judge on the smattering of games last year, smattering of minutes.
Mitch GalloHOST
And it's going to be like that to start for him.
Sean CampbellHOST
This year for the Canadians.
Sean CampbellHOST
Because like in years past, they had NHL players waiting in the wings of Laval.
Sean CampbellHOST
A little less so now.
Sean CampbellHOST
So their young guys are here and have arrived.
Michael SansnomHOST
I got some free tickets, so I got to see one game, um, of the split to squad.
Michael SansnomHOST
Um, I got the, uh, uh, Laval Rocket game [chuckles] in Toronto.
Michael SansnomHOST
Um, but I got to see Florian Xhekaj, and I got to see him, um, pummel another AHL star.
Patrick SansnomHOST
Oh, yeah.
Tony MarinaroHOST
Qu'est-ce qui retient l'attention, évidemment, c'est le communiqué des Canadiens hier.
Tony MarinaroHOST
Eux qui ont annoncé que Owen Beck, David Reinbacher et Jacob Fowler prennent la direction du Rocket de Laval.
Tony MarinaroHOST
Et Adam Engstrom et Florian Xhekaj restent avec la grosse équipe.
Tony MarinaroHOST
Donc, au moins d'un changement de dernière minute, au moins d'un changement aujourd'hui ou demain, on sait de quoi il va avoir l'air l'équipe des Canadiens de Montréal.
15 MINS LATER
Alexis Lavoie-MartelHOST
As-tu envie qu'on rentre dans le vif du sujet ?
Tony MarinaroHOST
Oui, on-- je vais rentrer dans le vif du sujet.
Tony MarinaroHOST
Donc David Reinbacher se retrouve avec le Rocket de Laval, puis je vais dire quelque chose.
Tony MarinaroHOST
OK ? C'est la bonne décision, Alexis.
Shaun StarrHOST
Well, ta-da, here we are.
Shaun StarrHOST
And then that's the breakdown of the positions here, right? So let's talk about Florian Jackey breaking camp earning his chance to report to the Montreal Canadiens and not the Laval Rocket.
Shaun StarrHOST
I use that word earned purposefully because that's exactly what this guy did.
Shaun StarrHOST
And now what happens to the pressure of guys like Bull Duck, guys like Texier, guys like Kirby Dock looking over their shoulder, knowing that this young buck ready to go full charge, full bore, should he be given the opportunity.
14 MINS LATER
Marco D'AmicoHOST
But I'm curious to see what happens with Owen Beck in terms of if and when he gets an opportunity down the line.
Shaun StarrHOST
Yeah, that's also part of the...
Shaun StarrHOST
Little disappointment for me when it came to the David Reinbacher decision to ultimately send him back to the Laval Rocket.
Shaun StarrHOST
I'm just a big fan.
Shayne GaumondHOST
And one that maybe caught some people by surprise, but again, makes sense if you consider all the factors at play.
Shayne GaumondHOST
Jacob Fowler was sent down to the Laval Rocket, considering how good of a first start he had last season, right? Not even a rookie, technically.
Shayne GaumondHOST
He's still a rookie.
Shayne GaumondHOST
But his first few showings were excellent.
Simon BoisvertHOST
So it's okay.
Simon BoisvertHOST
Now, about Florian, I think it's great that he made the team.
Simon BoisvertHOST
It's funny because about two, three years ago, two years ago, I would say, I was asked, I think by Tony on one of his sick podcasts, who was the Laval Rocket guy who I thought had the best chance, forward, had the best chance of making the Habs one day.
Simon BoisvertHOST
And there were better players than Florian statistically and also skill-wise.
Josh GosseHOST
He's on that team as that short-term seventh defenseman while Gooley is continuing to rehab after that adductor surgery.
Josh GosseHOST
So now, Reinbacher's going to go down to Laval.
Josh GosseHOST
He's going to be the number one defenseman.
Josh GosseHOST
A lot of ice time, a lot of pressure, and we'll see how he deals with it.
Josh GosseHOST
You could argue like, hey, he needs to.
Josh GosseHOST
He deserves it.
Josh GosseHOST
Why are we even talking about this? But at the same time, again, a guy with a lot of injury history, trying to just get him extra minutes in Laval where he can just play as much as he can, hopefully not get injured, knock on wood, and then eventually he'll prove that he's worth making the Habs.
Josh GosseHOST
That's just something that's going to happen.
