I'm easily one of the oldest posters on this board and I'm barely old enough to remember those championships

this

also

the cubs also have several pennants and even two world series wins

was anyone around for, or really care about those?

As a fan of neither team, that's pretty bad for the Habs.

Maybe I'm confusing you with someone else, but didn't you used to have your profile pic set a piece of paper with the Habs and Sharks logo on it? As a matter of fact, I'm pretty sure it was that same drawing of the Sharks logo...

 

[Captain Controversy]

Spoken like someone who has never seen Pesce play.

Pesce would cost Eberle at a minimum and I doubt the Canes even move him for that given their lack of RHD depth.

Please give me some of what you are having.

Not a Habs fan anymore. Bergevin's idiotic management drove me away.

 

[Benstheman]

I don't see the Canes having any interest in that. I'm sure they are fine letting him continue to develop and improve his value (and/or making someone else expendable) vs. just dumping him for a 2nd round pick. Contrary to popular HF belief, the Canes seem to be pretty happy with how he's developed so far and with Hanifin and Slavin they can let him develop until he's ready.

How about Fleury vs Scherbak + Hudon/Andrighetto??

I really don't know enough about those guys to be able to intelligently comment on that proposal. There are others on the Canes board much more knowledgeable about prospects in general that can probably weigh in though.

Hudon and Andrighetto are talented prospects wingers and ready to take a role on 2nd or 3rd line.

Scherbak is a former 1st round pick. Reaally talented but is more of a project. Needs time to mature physically. 2 years away i would guess.

That helps, but I still couldn't say. Canes biggest need is top 6 as they have a lot of mid/bottom 6 forwards. Of the following Canes young Players / prospects, who would you see them surpassing/being better than?

Nestrasil: 25
Skinner: 24
Rask: 23
Di Guiseppe: 22
McGinn: 22
Lindholm: 21
Teravainen: 22
Aho: 19
Gauthier: 18
Saarela: 19
Kuokkanen: 18
Roy: 19

I'm not sure how that's relevant.

And if you can't remember, you're nowhere near one of the oldest on these boards.

nah, he's older than i am, and i am *oooooold* lemme tell ya

when i was born, there was only one alien movie, and ghost busters was not even out

That's nothing. When I was born, Jimmy Carter was President and there was only one Star Wars movie.

When I was born Star Wars wasn't out yet

So, the takeaway here is that Canes (and Whalers) fans are dirt-age old.

Gauthier: 18
Saarela: 19

Those are naturally actually better then Hudon and Andrighetto. I would put them in the Nestrasil category. Less experience but more talented than him. Tough to say, i don't know much about Canes forward prospects.

yes

I want to make sure I understand your post. Are you saying both Scherbak and Hudon are both going to be better (not now, but long term) than all of Nestrasil, Di Guiseppe, McGinn, Gauthier, Saarela, Kuokkanen, and Roy?

I'm not weighing in personally as I don't know enough about those 2 guys, but just wanted to make sure I understood your post.

Woops. Forgot Gauthier. Otherwise, my answer is more or less yes.

This is just an opinion based on limited views and information, but no way those guys end up better than Kuokkanen and probably not Roy either. Can't comment on Saarela as I've only seen snippets of his game. As a fan of Di Giuseppe, I'd reserve judgement on his inclusion in your analysis given that he already acquitted himself well as a pro in limited games.

I get that you're speaking to the future, but I think you might have limited info on the Canes players/prospects of which you speak.

Roy is a guy I'd have only just very slightly behind those guys. And I'll admit I'm far from an expert on Canes prospects, but I have a pretty decent idea for most. Kuokkanen I'm not particularly familiar with though.
