Caufield has a message for the fans and the Montreal Canadiens
Cole Caufield's rookie season with the Montreal Canadiens consisted of two parts.
At the beginning of the season, he was completely silent and the production was lacking, but after the arrival of Martin St-Louis, there was a remarkable and dramatic change.
During the first half of the season, 8 points and 1 goal were recorded (in 29 games)
35 points and 22 goals were accumulated in the second half of the season (in 38 games)
In addition to his involvement on the scoresheet, which has changed markedly, there is also his off-ice involvement which seems to have reached another level. Caufield is talking a lot more and, despite his young age, he seems to be showing some leadership.
The youngster has already gained experience and confidence. That sounds like a lot.
In fact, as reported by our colleagues at Fanadiens.com, yesterday, Caufield threw out quite a message, proving this point.
He genuinely wants to win and get things moving in the right direction:
Words of a winner and a leader. Maybe he'll get a letter on his jersey, too, sooner than later?
In any case, he clearly doesn't sound like a guy who expects to miss the playoffs for a few more seasons. Despite the fact that the CH is in a "rebuild", there is no question of having a different mentality, and we love to hear that.
It's a promise for the future! Caufield seems to have clearly understood the importance of winning, for Montreal, and for the fans.
Go Habs Go!
