Habs are loaded with prospects and young NHL'ers, we won't have enough contracts for all these guys. Imo their plan is to draft more "riskier" picks (goalies) who have a longer development path.

Plans seems to be draft a bunch of guys who they will never have to sign. Big brain strategy!

If I know the Montreal market…. This sets the tone for a season where fans will run out of patience fast.

They expected this draft to be the crown jewel and they didn’t quite get the exciting picks hoped for. Kent needs to have a good July 1st and subsequent trades, it will turn ugly. It doesn’t look like the Habs will have a fast revival ala Leafs or Hawks. It’s what was expected, If my interpretation of the unseen patience shown the last two seasons is correct.

What the heck did Hellnemo do? Come on Habs...1 pick left. For either Hellnemo or Tourigny.

I mean the guy everyone wanted is minimum 3 years away anyway. This draft wasn't going to do anything for the organization in the short-term. Actually Reinbacher is a guy who could even make the team right away given his maturity and development curve.

Nah, I think the majority of Habs fans will continue to be fed the garbage they're given. Nothing about their behavior in the past tells me any different.
