The kid wants to make sure he will be ready for NHL action in a couple of seasons. No AHL hockey for him. And the habs don’t need him right away either.

You know a prospect might be pretty good when his jersey number is the symbol for infinity

Really good prospect. I'm very impressed with late picks by Habs management with their last 2 draft. (Engstrom, Volokhin, Miller, Xhekaj, Konyushkov).

2022 and 2023 draft have potential to be a game changer for the future of Habs. (2024 aswell. Can't wait to see what happen after the #5, that's very important the another picks aswell).

I don't like people who are too harsh against prospects after 1, 2 or even sometime 3 years from their draft year.

Yet, I will make an exception here. Mesar will not play with us. And probably never in the NHL. I will be surprised if it happens. That's my take. Been wrong before. Plenty. I'm so much not a fan though....and that's me...always shouting for talent. But this guy just doesn't it for me.

Same for Kidney. Kidney and Mesar if any teams love them....just do it. And I think Kapanen is overrated. But...I have more hope for him.

I agree with Mesar and Kidney. Feel like these guys are more trade chips than actual keepers. Get Collberg vibes from Mesar and Maxwell vibes from Kidney.

Kapanen, disagree. He might not be a top 6 guy but I think he is as good as a forward prospect we have... Similar value to Beck.

Just said that he's overrated. I see some putting him on a top 6 role....

Kidney I would wait before call him a bust… he made over 100 pts D1 and D2… I don’t know how Houle played him in Laval. He is thin, but I think he could have a good season in Laval with more icetime.

I think we can put to bed the notion that the team might trade down.
