Coming back from Brossard,

Slafkovsky is a monster, I was worried to maybe see a KK today but for those who were worried about that I can assure you Slaf is two leagues over KK. The guy is strong on his skates, good vision, excellent hands in short space, good and accurate shot, he even did the move between the legs but got stopped. I was skeptical but now I love the pick.

Farrell, his vision hands and passing abilities are a notch over everyone, I don’t think he is far from the NHL honestly, don’t think he will go AHL.

Hutson, one of the most surprising prospect, his skating reminded me of Mete back in the days, think Mete with hands and vision. Looked sharp in 1 vs 1

Beck, I had to talk about him, I think he will be a top 5 prospect for us by the end of the year, he is def one of my favorite prospect, very good defensively and 1 vs 1, good vision, good hands, excellent hockey IQ

Dichow, was the best G, by far the most athletic in our system.

Roy and Kidney, looked good but another year working on execution will do wonder for them
Are Dobes and Vrbetic there?
 
people see what they want to see though. Take a look at the vid I posted, just after the 1 min mark he gets pushed by Kapanen a guy who couldn't even handle Liiga last season. KK was coming off a major knee injury let's not forget, but it's funny how short memories people have. We rushed Galchenyuk, KK and looked what happened, now people are suggesting to do the same thing again and if it doesn't work out you know they will be the first posters saying I f***ing told you to pick Wright, how do you not pick him, etc...

Stop rushing prospects to the NHL, things take time it's ok.
Thanks for the reality check (and for the vids, as usual.)

The narrative around here is insane lol

Kapanen had a pretty good stick all day, I must say.

Sean Farrell is seriously very underrated on this board and in general. If there is a guy (Other than Slaf obviously) to become a legit top 6 forwards, it's him.

As Farrell ever shown any inclination of testing the free market now that he's confirmed he's staying in college for a final year? It was expected but he confirmed it today. Just wondering.
 
Farrel and Roy have as good a chance to become top line players as anyone in the Habs prospect pool.

Anyone. ANYONE.
I love Josh Roy shot but I am not sure yet about his ability to keep up with NHL talent. He is too good for the Q but he still has a lot to improve before claiming a top 6 role.

I think Farrell could play right now in the NHL, he has very elite skillset, vision and hockey IQ even though he is not the largest guy out there.

He stated that he would sign the contract when he would have it in front of him.

I think Hughes also said that they planned on signing him after his season.

I think he has a lot of reason and enticement to come here.

Farrels insane, he's most likely going to become a glue guy à la Zuccarelo.

Joshua Roy has at the very least a future as a Mike Hoffman type. He's basically a ten all over the place offensively. Insane talent.

As an extreme Wright-ist i have to say i like Slafvsquatch puck protection skills and his IQ if he is going to lose it he moves it into space near a team mate, cycles back in front of the net.

We will be much harder to play against
