Meanwhile, Wright scores another one...backhand from close to the net that Vejmelka probably should have had.

Good to see Wright get off on the wright foot. He was unfairly labeled as a bust and is proving everyone wrong.
I don't get why people would bash montreal regarding Wright. Three teams passed him over in the draft. And all 3 x teams had good reason for doing so.

Good for Wright. Looks like there may be a good player in there.
I'm already interested to see how he will produce next year.

No reason for anyone to be pissy about Shane Wright. Why would there be?

People have to get over the Montreal thing. Who cares!?
Minus the fact that he turned his back on Team Canada at Christmas, and that's something I need to get over, I am very happy for him - God knows, I'd lost hope. A lot of us did. He's proving us wrong.

It’s not that Habs fans are pissy about Wright, it’s that they’re obsessed with telling everyone how happy they are that the Habs didn’t pick him.

Their kid got a hat trick, tonight. Sounds like everyone won. Time to just concentrate on the players.

Hat trick in the same night Slaf gets one. I’m sure that was in the back of his mind. It’s going to be interesting to see what Wright can do next year.
For the record, I wanted Montreal to take Wright. Also for the record- it doesn’t mean much because I don’t watch much of prospect games and was going if history and analysts reports. Slaf has done nothing but impress this year. As for Wright, I see no reason why he can’t kill it. Gonna be interesting to follow this.

No worries. I think both teams should be happy with their kid. Slaf has played really well lately.

Where is your source on this? There is only one reliable report confirming that there was backlash written by Arpon Basu, but it does not mention death threats. Any backlash towards a kid for simply being drafted is disgusting, of course, but pushing a narrative of death threats without backing it up is pretty reprehensible, too.

There were numerous reports of people sending Sergachev death threats in 2016.
It literally takes 2 seconds to look up.

OK, please spend those two seconds showing me where people made death threats to David Reinbacher then.
Habs fans are happy that they selected Slafkovsky. Nothing wrong with that. If take issue to that, that's on you.
As for Wright, i was always convinced he would eventually turn into at worst a 2C/3C. He has a high floor and can become a 2C/1C IMO. Glad to see him developing and changing peoples minds. Like the Slaf detractors, people will be eating crow about Wright.
I think all Habs fans share this opinion.

Literally the first thing that comes up:
Habs’ first-rounder David Reinbacher receives hate messages and death threats from fans in Montreal
This is terrible. Racism, hate and threats to a poor kid whose NHL dream just came true.

I feel bad for you that you blindly believe random sources with a history of fake news. As I said originally, in the post you responded to, not a single reliable source has confirmed "death threats".Literally the first thing that comes up:

Only fake news hockey rags like this one.
Despicable that some will leverage that to try winning internet arguments.
