No I don’t and neither do you. None of the centers are in the Celebrini category. Contrary to what many here think, there aren’t many centers better than Suzuki in the NHL.

Let’s put it this way, there are a ton of better dmen than Guhle in the NHL but not a ton of better centers than Suzuki. So why are we passing up on a clear cut upgrade at a weaker position and probably the best player in the draft for someone who likely won’t overtake Suzuki but would rather complement him?

I would bet on Misa surpassing Suzuki. As a prospect he's been better than Nick at every comparable stage and I don't think it's unreasonable to think that continues in the NHL.

He's a better prospect than Suzuki was, but that alone doesn't mean he will surpass Suzuki. Cody Glass was a better prospect than Suzuki, how did that turn out? Not saying Misa will be Cody Glass 2.0 but there are a lot of factors to consider. Primarily the fact that Misa isn't a slam dunk #1C like Celebrini/Bedard and there aren't that many #1Cs better than Suzuki.
 
Justin Carbonneau is a 6'2'' RW who has 38 goals in 52 games (73 pts).Powet forward with a great shut (snipper), not afraid to play in traffic and skating is good.I would select him with our second first choice because the Habs do not have many true snipers.



From nhlentrydraft.com ( scouting report):Carbonneau has the potential to be an elite offensive contributor at the next level, but he may need to mature and round out his game to secure a spot in the top six on an NHL roster. For a team seeking more offensive talent in their forward group, Carbonneau would be a solid mid-first-round pick in the 2025 draft.4 févr. 2025

kimelman can go ride a camel, one caufield is enough, for every caufield we need a suzuki, and so far we only have one, I woud look for someone else
 
I'm seeing a lot of top 6 talk here...
I don't see us picking higher than 7/8 so those big names likely won't be in the conversation.
How big is the next tier or is it still all over the map at this point?
 
I think O'Brien may be the guy from the group where we'll be picking. I know another RHC isn't necessarily ideal but he's just so goddamn smart. Would be great to pair with Demidov, they'd wreak havoc.

Yes, 100%

We don't have any natural RW, who shoots right and have some grit.
