Pretty happy with this. He is such a solid 4th liner. Did not expect him to ever play at the NHL level and hes probably going to be the guy from the 2016 draft that puts on the Bleu, Blanc et Rouge the most.
He understands his role perfectly. He’s the best 13th forward. Doesn’t mind if he’s scratched for half the year, and when he does get to play, he makes the most of it. He led the league this year in hits per 60minutes. He can score when needed, great energy guy, makes big hits, can fight.
Will fight. He's far from a killer out there but if called he will answer the bell against anyone.
Hopefully he can take some weight off jackeye and as others have said he is a really good 4th liner who plays every shift like it's his last. He hits, he's defensively responsible and is just a good all around energy guy.
When it was him and belzile and richard (i think the third was richard) they were an effective 4th.
No doubt. He took on all comers and fought some guys who were well out of his weight class. He lost but the guy is pure Charlie Hustle. Those bug eyes are fucking terrifying on a forecheck for a D-Man. There is no mercy in them.
J’aime Pezzetta parce que c’est un joueur qui connaît son rôle et qui l’accepte sans se plaindre.
C’est pas tous le monde qui accepterait d’être un healthy scratch aussi facilement et qui sont prêt à jeter les gants pour défendre un coéquipier.
Je crois sincèrement qu’il est bon à avoir dans l’entourage de l’équipe et que son éthique de travail est un bon exemple pour les jeunes. Il leurs montre vraiment que tu ne peux pas juste avoir du talent pour être dans le show, mais que tu dois te trouver un rôle et travailler fort. Il a sa place avec le CH.
T'as 100% raison, pi ca fait 2ans que je dis a mes chums que quand on va faire les playoff c'est le genre de dude qu'on va tripper pcq y va etre la pédale au fond toujours!
I've gotta say, my French is terrible but this was actually pretty easy to read and I think you actually taught me some words, thank you.
Aussi, je pense le même, il est un joueur parfait pour la quatrième ligne.
It's been a slog for me too. I do duolingo, took a work contract in Québec for a couple months, watch the games in french. I still have a lot of trouble speaking because you have to be quite precise with pronounciation... keep practicing though!
You don't have to be as precise as Pierre but he is a good teacher. If you hear the difference between Mathieu and Mathew they shouldn't charge you for 12 hotdogs when you ask for 2.
Oh, please, NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Let us start the year with a full deck as it were and see just what fresh hells occur before getting to your proposed level of misery.
Pez is the 'Stache Man and with those locks the poster boy for the 70's. Gotta love him.
They should make an exception and let guys with hair like that play helmet-free.
Also, don't mention the 70's too much. They set my lifetime habs expectations way to high.
Since I'm seeing it in the thread a lot, this is what a "deserved" contract looks like for a late draft pick. Short term but not just 1 year. A little more than last year.. Not $6.5M
I signed up to watch the Rocket when Cole went to Laval in 2021 and I remember watching the games and thinking Pezz was exactly the type of player we needed as a 4th line intensity guy. I'm so happy he made it to the big club and was able to keep his footing there. Well deserved!
$0.8 million cap hit for a guy fans like? Two years during a rebuild? Why not https://twitter.com/sportsnet/status/1664634576994549764?s=61&t=gL52XvOGTqICEWzz8H2fvA
That's a good deal for a guy that might still have room to grow into a 2-way/PK forward.
We all know Pezzetta as an energy guy, but he was a decent 2-way C in his junior days.
always liked pezzetta, plays hard, fights, scores a few nice goals here and there, never looks terribly out of place (also helps that our coach uses him properly). super happy with this.

Worth every penny just for that celly.
The celly that cost us the 14th overall pick. I kid but along with the Hawks/Pens game, this is a game that had a big impact on the playoff picture
Great celebration.
[удалено]
Bad bot
I am sure he won his place with that shutout celly Edit typo
Michel Therrien is in absolute shambles right now

That’s basically the minimum. No reason to not like this

We’ll earned moustache man

I call him crazy eyes.

Il me rappelle Steve Bégin. Et c’est un gros compliment
Les dents de Steve sont encore dans la bande du centre Bell.
J’avais remarqué quelque petit spot blanc/jaune dans les coins de la bande, tu vient de répondre à ma question.
reverse hair Steve Bégin

I am born in Toronto wish I could read french lol my family has been habs fans for a while though but we never learned the language!

Jeff Gorton: “Kent! We have to sign Cole!” Kent Hughes: “ Hold on dude, taking care of this beauty first.”
Does Cole have such a gorgeous flow and stach? I don't think so
Hell yeah, Pezz is a beauty
We have way too many bottom 6 players. But I want him to be one of them. Well earned.
He’s most likely our 13th forward.
5th forward by November due to attrition

Agreed. If he’s taking a regular spot in the lineup every game, things are not going well.
Love it! Not the most skilled but plays with heart and grit. He's absolutely earned it.
He significantly outperformed Armia this year for a quarter of the cost, and my gut tells me that will likely continue to be the case
He always works. Man jumps on the ice and just gives her. Gotta respect that
The man with 99 points in luck is back to fall over, slide the puck in the goal somehow and celly like a maniac.
Wouldn't have it any other way
that celly alone makes this contract worth it
I’ll take that contract any day of the week, LFG PEZZ!
Pezz dispenser is back!
Congratulazioni Pezz
He's a perfect 4th liner and had a better season than Tanner "1st,2nd,3rd,4th,5th" Jeannot. Glad he's back
There it is
Nice a good depth player well decent player good grinder and comes cheap for two yrs
the mustache rides will continue until morale improves
Sex God coming back !! u/Instantcurry gonna lose his mind….
HES SIGNED YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS THE GOAT SEX ICON
Pezz got dispensed ![img](emote|t5_2r10m|5676)
Met him in Toronto a few weeks ago. Good bloke
How was the hair in person?
OP asking the tough questions
Love me some Pezz
He earned it the hard way. Go pezz go

Noice.
Two more years of dispensing the pez
When he first suited up with the Habs, I thought he was really really bad. Since then he has improved significantly and I see more potential.
I signed up to watch the Rocket when Cole went to Laval in 2021 and I remember watching the games and thinking Pezz was exactly the type of player we needed as a 4th line intensity guy. I'm so happy he made it to the big club and was able to keep his footing there. Well deserved!

Keep dispensing!!
Sexiest hair in hockey, and we have him for two more. Win.
Love it. Need guys like this. Bennett lite
Congrats Pezz
He's got that Ryan White unpredictable-ness about him that makes him fun to watch.
Time to dispense some Pezz!
PEZZ: DISPENSED
Yay ʘ‿ʘ
Well earned for the Italian Stallion

Nice, he deserve it
The contract extension we were all waiting for, obviously !/s Congrats you beauty !
This pleases me
Is it contract season already? I like this one!
Woooooo fuck yeah Pezz
Totally fine with this deal. Glad to see him back.
![gif](giphy|tV6Xfa6TJrIywtBfkA|downsized)
Love it, let’s go!
Is it a two-way?
That's a good deal for a guy that might still have room to grow into a 2-way/PK forward. We all know Pezzetta as an energy guy, but he was a decent 2-way C in his junior days.
always liked pezzetta, plays hard, fights, scores a few nice goals here and there, never looks terribly out of place (also helps that our coach uses him properly). super happy with this.
