Confirmed with Link: Canadiens Will Pick 5th (Hughes Presser in OP) NO POLITICS

[Skip Bayless]

I remember getting cursed out and being told I'm too gloomy after every useless f***ing point this season. Well now, the same people are complaining that they wish we were 3rd or 4th......

Go off king. Talk your shit.

 

[Vachon23]

Why would habs fans cry over this , when you tried to pick THE SECOND best player after a generational talent before him.

Your gonna be the 1st to complain if Michkov flop…

 

[Gravity]

Go off king. Talk your shit.

My distaste for Kelly Clarkson *ahem* Montemblow will never disappear. He cost us a top 4 pick.

 

[Grate n Colorful Oz]

Could imagine if I ever ran for a public position and then went through my phone , lord have mercy.

You'll fit right in. Don't worry, 'they' won't say anything about it as long as you comply.

 

[sheed36]

Still an asset.

I only read still an ass thinking we were still talking about silver spoon Geoffy.

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

Your gonna be the 1st to complain if Michkov flop…

No , stop projecting into someone else , Michkov should be a no brainer.

Good news, Putin is letting Michkov travel to Nashville for the draft.

Fantilli is good but he's not worth that much. for 3 extra spots

Fantilli is worth what would convince Anaheim to trade that pick, and I don't think Dach, Beck, Harris, and our 2 first rounders would convince them.

Anaheim is on a full rebuild anyways , they are barely starting they will be ready in 3 years~ fantilli fits perfectly in the timeline

 

[Vachon23]

No , stop projecting into someone else , Michkov should be a no brainer.

of course you will

You complain about everything

 

[Kennerback]

I’ll complain for one reason alone, if management thinks they are smarter than their scouts who do this full time many months a year imposing on a whim their own personal preference.

 

[River Meadow]

Beck and Harris are decent but not great young players who we tend to overate

The team will not suffer without them.

While I like Dach, he is not a center man and he’s had some significant injuries.

He had a good year, but let’s not pretend he scored a hundred points. He’s not untouchable

The fifth and the late 31st are what they are - later picks that do not have chances at Fantilli.

Beck was literally just drafted...

It's like saying Slaf is a bust.

We don't know what Beck will become but he looks like a great pick so far.

You're giving up too much value, banking on the fact that Fantilli will become that much better than the 5th OA, AND the 31st OA, AND the 3 other players you're adding.

Horrible value and very dangerous trade. Fantilli is not a sure thing either.

 

[Sam de Mtl]

As far as I know, Michkov may be the pick. It is entirely possible that the hope of HuGo is to blur the situation as much as possible for other teams. There is no reason for any team to make their preference known, and when they do, there may still be a heavy dose of deception in this manoeuver.

Gotta wait until the draft. In the meantime, it would be nice if folks on this forum could stay level-headed and more polite to people of different opinions.

And here we thought he'd be gagged and strapped to a chair in some damp forsaken basement inside the Kremlin.

 

[Habs]

you guys remember 5 years ago when a bunch of us were saying 'trade price for picks in the upcoming drafts' and all the woke sensitive smurfs here were screaming 'you never trade a franchise D at any point!

Good times, what could have been.

I wanted to trade him summer 2015, 8 years ago.

How is that a good news? I'm afraid all those talk about Michkov are for nothing. San Jose will end up drafting him. This have been a disapointing season. I'm fully expecting him to be drafted #4. Just one rank above us (kinda like Pastrnak in 2014)...

That would be great news. I was wondering what Michkov would look like in a Habs jersey so I just had to see. Looks pretty damn nice to moi..

The Russian government are engaged in a war, engaged in fighting sanctions and in making sure ordinary Russian have bread on their table so they don’t rebel. The last thing on their mind is hockey players.

me too , right when he started taking selfies with fans in the crease and signing the glass. God mode activated

 

[BehindTheTimes]

Yes, it all depends on how bad you (meaning our scouting staff) want Michkov and what the price is.

They don’t want him. You underestimate how bad these gms/scouts such. I think it’s pretty much a guarantee Michkov will be available at 5 if we want him. Can’t see him going before 8.

Man your writing is exceptional. You got me rolling here.

Whatever you may think of the Russian government, they’re engaged in a war, in fighting sanctions and in making sure ordinary Russian have bread on their table so they don’t rebel The last thing on their mind is hockey players.

Yeah, no shit. I think the whole situation is overblown.

Pure winner.

His Jersey would be retired in 20 years after several Stanley Cup championships.

If there’s no trade, I’m fully convinced now that San Jose will go Smith if he’s still available.
