HF Habs: 2025 NHL Draft: Part II

[Matteus]

Sure. But those 2 guys are likely the exception, not the rule. At the end of Savard and during the Houle era the Habs picked lots of guys who had everything else but lacked skating and they mostly all busted and nobody was a really good player. See Mark Pederson, Terry Ryan, Eric Chouinard, Jason Ward.

Fine with taking a flyer with a late 1st or in later rounds , like Jason Robertson at 39thOA, but unless it's a goalie I'm not using a top 10 pick on a bad skater. Game is played on the ice.

Back when the Habs held their rookie camp in Verdun I remember that's where I got my first look at Pederson and I couldn't believe that was our first round pick. The guy could barely skate.

I see some lists and I do not understand how Carter Bear isn't a top 10 player. I mean...seriously? Any team that let him pass a top 10 pick is an idiot.

I can't see Bear sliding outside the top 10.

Lol. I know. Announcers kept saying he was deadly from the blueline in, the problem was everywhere else.

They really didn't value skating, always saying it will come. And the 18 ,19 year old was expected to figure it out on his own. Not so much.

Would love to get my hands on Bear and/or Desnoyers. We could definitely use one or both of these players in our prospect pool along with another good defence prospect (Mrtka/Hensler/Fiddler)

lets hope Kent dumps Savard or even MM if someone wants him bad enough.

100%. Though have you seen Savard today? He is getting slower by the day. Don’t think we can get better than a 4th for him. At this point, if they can’t get better than that, they will let him decide if he wants to finish the season with a contender or stay at home.

but that playoff experience he has will help any team.

Would anyone take him with a 7th ?

Goes to a new team and gets up to almost a ppg, granted in a small sample size, but he's a big, heavy boi.

I think the odds are good we are in 8OA before the 4 nations break.
