I could be wrong about this but I think maybe they feel Michkov winning a Calder trophy will do more for their season ticket sales than a top 5 draft pick would and that's what they are trying to achieve.

I think the Calder Cup is pretty much a given for the Canadiens new shiny toy on D.

What is the deal with Mitch Love and why is he is sought after?

Because he loves Mich?

That must be when Calgary's Cup win finally set in as reality for you

Who the hell is Calgary?

Trophy not cup but yes, there might be a bias in that direction. Maybe an anti Russian bias too, especially in a year where Ovi gets so many headlines. They might not want it to look like Russians are taking over.

Still though, forwards win more than D men so it's possible. He's clearly a future superstar while Hutson is just a new Gostisbehere.

I haven’t felt joy since June of 1989

Is that when your grandparents met?

Them meeting is one of the worst things that ever happened to me.

I hold them responsible for my existence, which is unforgivable.

Whenever I see this thread, I think about how he should be the third Shaw brother from fast and the furious

This is the most correct statement you've ever made

Comes down to me is who has had the bigger impact on their team is the main driver.

Getting sick of MM for the Calder being stuffed down my throat by Boucher and Jackson. Has me wanting him not win in a way sadly. End of the day doesn't matter in the big picture whether he does or doesn't. Will have zero bearing on any future success of this team. Though I would bet MM has some bonus clauses for winning.

Yeah, sounds good: ...Todd Nelson

I agree it doesn't really matter and maybe it's even better for the long run if he doesn't win. Might give him a little chip on his shoulder and an "I'll show them" attitude. Celebrini is going to be a very good hockey player and Hutson could stay pretty good but only Michkov has shown these moments of absolute brilliance that imo makes him special. If we can get a good center to play between him and TK we will have one of the top lines in all of hockey.

I like this thread and it’s premise.

It is ridiculous and we could all use some more ridiculousness in our lives from time to time.
