Renaud Lavoie said on radio that he would pick Michkov and that the Habs should not, not draft him because of politics. And that if you pick him, you can still trade him in the next 3 years if you dont like what you see.

He also said, from his point of view Montreal had Michkov on their not-drafting list, but they were impressed by the meeting with him, before finalising their list yesterday night. So they might be more willing to draft him now.

All surprising coming from Renaud.

There shouldn't be though, unless we pick someone out of the consensus top 5.

We’ve got some crazy folk in here, some who have been posting for years, who are desperate for us to pick someone outside that top 5 like a Leonard. It’s truly baffling.

I’m sure if we pick Michkov they’ll come out of the woodwork and complain.
 
The Nightman said:
It would be wild if Michkov went 2nd. The Jackets would be particularly ecstatic considering they’ve already locked in they’re taking a Center.

Seravalli said: “There were scouts and teams buzzing on Tuesday night in Nashville, essentially saying ‘hey there’s a lot of chatter out there that the Ducks might take Michkov at #2’”

So maybe some of that momentum and chatter at the event is starting to sway things

He also mentioned how apparently Verbeek has already publicly and openly stated that he’s drafting a Center. I googled it, and couldn’t find anything of the sort. So I dunno if anyone has a link to those comments from Verbeek, but I don’t remember seeing that anywhere.

That was Columbus that said they're taking a center.

Not a fan of Renaud, but wasn’t he one of the first last year to say the habs were probably not going to take Wright?

Thanks that’s what I was thinking. He probably confused the two

Man we really care about the interviews. Michkov probably told them that he cooks AND cleans on his own to impress them.

That what i said hours ago.....atleast draft him even if you don't want him...
Then start exploring a trade and see what the whole Nhl is willing to offer.
There's other teams willing to pay you big for him...don't be stupid if he is there at 5

Im listening to french radio right now (BPM) and I realize that we have so much fans who dont know shit about the draft, the prospects and are saying crazy things.

People would rather SEE a trade. Than drafting the best player. Because trades excite them.

Yeah, lets trade Ovechkin for Dvorak and Petry.

you can't , Dvorak has a no-trade clause. :teach:
