Didn't they make a pro game limit because teams would just send shitty goons all the time, mainly Toronto because they didn't have a prospect pool ? When Robbie Earl was a top prospect, your pool f***ing sucks.
Very surprised that Heineman was added for this tournament.
True but so does Heineman

I really like Roy too, but don’t you think one of the vets (Andy, Gally, Dvo, Armia) need to be moved out before he gets a chance to be a regular in the lineup?%. Roy is a top 9 player this season, maybe even 2nd line duties.
The vets have had their chance and they all belong on the bottom 2 lines. There is room for Roy.

While I don’t share your optimism, I hope you are right. With the horde of top forward prospects (Demidov, Hage, Xhekaj, etc.) coming and Hughes having 3 firsts and 4 seconds to play with over the next two years, if Roy can’t secure a place for himself on the top three lines he won’t be on the team in 26/27.

I hope X Junior makes it all the way. f*** man we need toughness up front.
he's a late bloomer, give him a full year in the AHL - he doesn't need to be playing 10 mins or less in the NHL.
i would love for Florian to become our Tom Wilson. although he played in the NHL at Xhekaj's age, it took him 5 seasons to put up double digit goals. one full year in the AHL and maybe Xhekaj can put up 10+ in his rookie NHL season in 2025-2026.

It is a bit weird, he really sticks out in that group. I have no idea why he's there.
Pretty sure that is tournament dependent, not league wide.
For the goalies, I assume they want to give some pro-like reps to Miller as he is due to sign this year. Dobes/Hughes will see plenty of action in the main camp and the AHL camp.
The AHL 2nd year guys for D and FWD are there because they wouldn't be able to fill the roster without them and to build some excitement for the games.

He's there to build excitement, just like Farrell, Mailloux, Kidney, Davidson and to a lesser extent Reinbacher/Hutson (only played a few AHL/NHL games but above the level of those games).
If not for the AHL guys, it would be mostly irrelevant invites due to our many NCAA/Euro picks.
I'm a little bit worried at the back as well if we go Matheson Hutson first pairing second pairing.

Agreed, Roy is a lock to make the team imo and absolutely should be playing ahead of most of the vets that are being pencilled in to the bottom six.
Trade incoming...
Another great skater with fairly decent instincts but an overall lack of impact.
His role looks like it may be getting swallowed up by other prospects.
Tuch and Flojack both should have more bite overall with similar production.
That hot streak he had when he first came over a couple of seasons ago looks like an outlier.
They may want to see if he can regain that touch with the kids.

I have low-key hopes for G Samuel Richard. Kinda like Jared Davidson, he's coming from afar but is like a super dark horse for an NHL career. Like midnight black I'm talking but I'm a sucker for a long shot underdog. Don't sleep on this kid, well maybe you can afford to nap.
He has had one AHL season. He should have more offensive ability than Tuch but he needs to do something this year.Trade incoming...

Never heard of this guy but he's 24yo, played in Canada - Atlantic university league last two seasons. Only 6ft tho, odds seem stacked against him
Have you seen this dude play? He any good?

Protz was the most noticeable defenseman during the recent development camp. It wouldn’t be a surprise if in the coming years Protz passes some of the more notable emerging defensemen on the Canadiens’ depth chart. With his combination of physicality, compete level and mobility it would be more surprising if he didn’t.

A little while ago I heard from some guy that he was worth watching. Saw his stats they were fine but whatever I thought. Then I saw that his CIAU(?) team was kicking ass so I scrounged around to find video of him. I understand he appears to be a completely unremarkable goalie but all he does is win. I'd love if we sent him to Trois-Rivieres and got someone to mentor him.
Solid guy, intense and not overly athletic but he doesn't need to be.
