Logan Mailloux takes (partial) blame for his defensive shortcomings

Logan Mailloux is a polarizing prospect. Obviously, his past works against him, but the fact that he is a player who doesn’t exactly take care of his defense is also an aspect to consider.

In London, in junior, we could see that sometimes he did not fall back completely effectively. But as he helped his club score – and win – more often than not, things went better.

But there, Logan Mailloux is in the pros and the Rocket is not having a great start to the season. This puts the spotlight on him a little more under the circumstances.

And let’s say that we don’t only get positives.

He still has a lot of mileage to do.

This quote comes from Jean-François Houle. The Laval Rocket pilot made such comments about Logan Mailloux not because he is not doing anything good, but because he has things to work on.

That’s what Nicolas Landry, journalist at RDSreports.

The Rocket coach loves the potential of Mailloux and other young people, but he does not like to see his club being so unaccountable for the efforts made during matches.

This was to be expected with a young club, but still: Houle believes that youth cannot excuse everything.

That’s what having a young team in training. So yes, it is rock and roll and it will be for a little while. – Jean-François Houle

Currently, Mailloux’s differential of -9, who has two points (two goals) in seven games, says it all. I know that the differential is not the ultimate statistic, but when you have the worst in the club, it’s a sign.

The defender knows he is not perfect. He’s willing to take some of the blame, but he also knows that he’s not 100% to blame either since he knows he’s not the only one who deserves to be criticized.

If you look at these goals more carefully, sometimes it’s my fault, sometimes it’s not. –Logan Mailloux

Note that according to data compiled by Sportlogiq, Mailloux was a victim of bad luck in certain respects. However, he knows that he must work hard in the NHL to achieve his goals.

He can’t say otherwise, obviously.

When the Canadian’s training camp ended, we learned that he was in the CH’s plans for this season. But for that, he will have to improve his game without the puck.

After all, doesn’t Martin St-Louis say that hockey is mostly played without the puck?

A lot of

– Ah good?

– Mike Matheson draws praise from his former NCAA head coach.

– It’s a nice gesture.

– Protecting your neck becomes mandatory in the WHL.

– It’s not all negative.
