[sansabri]

Flyers fans will be laughing at us for years to come.

reverse Cam York/Cole Caufield?

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

At least trade a veteran d for a 2nd and make tomorrow interesting

 

[The Great Weal]

Lol. Amateur hour once again.

We hire an absolute clown in Borbov who's last major success was Krecji back in the stone age. We laugh that Timmins only had 2007, this guy only has 2006. The two Euro studs the Rangers drafted in Buchnevich and Shesterkin was under another scout. Would be nice if we hired people who weren't besties with Gorton's NY days and looked at hiring the best across the league. You had a guy in Kulich right f***ing there and you take Slaf's best friend.

Also why the f*** is Lapointe still here.

Why am I even watching this still

 

[MeanMugging91]

Well im pretty disappointed. Not cause i dont think Reinbacher isnt a great player but when you have talent like Michkov on the board at 5 you need to make the pick.

 

[Koivu11]

And this is why tanking harder was so important.

Not ending up with one of Bedard/Fantilli/Carlsson/Smith/Michkov is absolutely brutal.

 

[26Mats]

Yet teams took Russians 6th and 7th...

 

[Doublechin]

We could have had him at 7 8 etc

Horrible, brutal

 

[ViD]

Michkov was tailor made for Montreal

A skilled superstar to Hockey Mecca.

What is wrong with you ?

An Austrian defenseman ?!?

 

[Tyson]

I don't care about Michkov, I think drafting that Dman was a total stretch.

 

[sampollock]

Leonard, attitude and grit

Ummmmmmm. Kent

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

And it got leaked, the most damning part

Irrelevant. There were other teams between Montreal and teams like Nashville and Washington. That wouldn't stop a trade.

 

[HabzSauce]

I'd love to hear what Hugo projects Reinbacher to be.

Better be a 1RD. If he's a #4 tho I'm going to be so disappointed

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

Carey still can't understand why Michkov's name wasn't on the card...

 

[junyab]

Unbelievable. Epic fail.

 

[Runner77]

I needed some time before commenting again.

Can we be done with Hughes/Gorton experiment? Even Bergevin and Timmons wouldn’t have f***ed up that bad.

You weren't wrong when you said that you didn't have a good feeling about tonight.

 

[DavePeak]

There's no reason to be disappointed until these players have played in the NHL.

So there's still hope for David Fischer?

 

[zx81]

If your choice is David R...errr.... as the 5th pick you can safely trade down. Pretty sure he was not going to be picked in the top 10 by anyone else.

 

[sukimono]

This board is hilarious .They were not taking any Russians in this draft especially one at 5 .There is a war going on and the guy can't play here for at least 3 years if at all.What's so hard to understand.If this wasn't the case he would have been drafted #2

Lol. That scares NOBODY but us

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Slafkovksy, Mesar, Reinbacher, and Newhook is a bad haul from two years of tanking.

I guess this ensures we're on the tankwagon next year. I really don't see how it's feasible.

Beck and Hutson don't count in your ridiculous analysis.

 

[Natey]

He missed a whole lot. With that pick and trading 31 and 37 Habs have officially embarrassed themselves.

Reinbacher will still be very good. Just not game breaker good.

 

[Canadienna]

Honzek would be a fun add if we could ever get back in.

 

[ReHabs]

Slafkovksy, Mesar, Reinbacher, and Newhook is a bad haul from two years of tanking.

 

[SnapVirus]

Reinbacher and Dvorsky were my worst nightmares.

Wanted Michkov, Leonard, Smith or Benson.

Sad

 

[Habs]

Its all Molson man, it has to be, no team can be this dumb just by themselves

 

[sansabri]

I'd love to hear what Hugo projects Reinbacher to be.

Better be a 1RD. If he's a #4 tho I'm going to be so disappointed

i doubt Arizona passed on Michkov/Leonard to draft a #4D too
