Pre-Game Talk: Countdown thread to 24-25 Season (T - 24 hours)

[Habs13]

What’s the scouting report on Barre-Boulet what does he bring exactly? Expectations?

He's 27 years old and has played 68 NHL games. About all you need to know.

It's interesting to compare which players come from the Bergevin era and which is from Hughes era :

==> Bergevin
Suzuki
Caufield
Anderson
Armia
Dvorak
Gallagher
Evans
Kapanen
Harvey-Pinard
Pezzetta
Guhle
Savard
Xhekaj
Struble
Montembeault
Primeau
---------
Roy
Mailloux
Farrell
Tuch
Dobes

==> Hughes
Dach
Slafkovsky
Newhook
Heineman
Barré-Boulet
Laine
Matheson
Hutson
Barron
-------
Demidov
Beck
Engstrom
Hage
Reinbacher
Mesar
Fowler

This is still, in many ways, Marc Bergevin's team. Despite his flaws, we must admit that Timmins last few drafts have been pretty strong, and has allowed Hughes to do a real reconstruction.

Habs will probably have near $4m overage deducted on next year cap ceiling.

Are you sure about this?
