You must be new hereMan, these Montreal fans are relentless.

I'm not a Habs fan but the right answer at this moment is David Reinbacher.
Add Logan Mailloux
Hell def get voted top 50 on here lol, prob top 30 tbhAs silly as the Habs fans have been, this is roughly where Reinbacher belongs. For me after Mateychuk he's in the next tier of guys.
You're an absolutely shameless Habs fan. You live on the Habs board. Give me a break.
Also Logan Mailloux is like the 200th best prospect in the NHL, we're not going there.

Great stat watching.Zayne the Brain clears Reinbacher easily are you kidding?
Parekh had almost double the points just last season than David Reinbacher has scored in the totality of his 4 year amateur + pro career. Talent is talent, the most specific goal in hockey is to put the puck in your opponent's net. Parekh did so 33 times in major junior last year. Reinbacher? 6 pro goals in two seasons.
Great stat watching.
Either he busts hard or becomes a star. Odds are he is a bust.
Oh I meant parekhReinbacher doesn't have that kind of ceiling.
Oh I meant parekh
Yeah no shit. Exactly.
One has star potential. Special player. Franchise altering even.
The other simply doesn't.
Don't get me wrong, Reinbacher is a perfectly safe bet to become a decent top 4 dman. I would've gone Michkov but whatever he's fine. If however we're talking about the top NHL prospects(ostensibly in a top 50 prospect poll) I'm going with the big ceiling every time. There's quite a few players capable of playing a top 4 role on an NHL team. Only so many that can be a play driving #1.
Did you watch the defensive play of Parekh? He is very very good in offense, but he is not good in his zone at this moment.
Reinbacher is much more complete D-man. He putting 22 pts in 46 games in his rookie year at NLA, much better league than OHL, that's a impressive production for a 17 years old in that type of league.
Sorry, 17 years old player who play great two-way game put 22 pts in 46 games at NLA level is much impressive than the production of Parekh in OHL (96 pts in 66 games) and not be good at his defensive zone aswell. My two cents.
Lundqvist, Brannstrom and Boqvist all weren't qualified this year too. Works both ways and typically this way more often than not. Small skill d men have to be insanely talented and elite to play. It's not the norm.just keep in mind Fox and Hughes were/are small too. Depends would can put on a bit of weight, and how they ultimately adapt (IQ).
I'd rather the 5oa who will play 25 mins in the playoffs then the potential bust and even if he is a star he won't be playing much defenseYeah no shit. Exactly.

Based on this logic Hutson shouldn't have been voted in yet then.I'd rather the 5oa who will play 25 mins in the playoffs then the potential bust and even if he is a star he won't be playing much defense
Hutson is much likelier at this point to hit then parekh lolBased on this logic Hutson shouldn't have been voted in yet then.
no it isnt.... youre thinking and posting like the other Hab homers here. Understand that.Hutson is much likelier at this point to hit then parekh lol
Plus hutson has shown more upside and already at the nhl level
Clueless post
I'm clueless? You're saying he's shown anything at the NHL level despite playing 2 career games so far.Plus hutson has shown more upside and already at the nhl level
Clueless post
Sure buddy that's why most if not all rankings have hutson over parekh. As I said cluelessI'm clueless? You're saying he's shown anything at the NHL level despite playing 2 career games so far.
How has Hutson shown more upside lol? Like what? Parekh is younger, was drafted significantly higher, and bigger. Any team in the NHL is taking Parekh over Hutson.
Oh and Hutson hasn't shattered all the records in a much more competitive league ? Lmao what you serious or what?no it isnt.... youre thinking and posting like the other Hab homers here. Understand that.
Parekh is a 6'0 180 lbs 18 year old Dman who just broke the points record in the OHL (were not talking about QMJHL here).
To say that theyre not at least close is just pure homerism.... And Im a big Hutson fan btw.
I can just imagine how quick your reasoning would change if Hutson and Reinbacher werent Habs or if Parekh was.
Hutson didn't improve year to year. He got owned and pinned in his own zone at ES in the NHL.Oh and Hutson hasn't shattered all the records in a much more competitive league ? Lmao what you serious or what?
Last part, I've been very critical about habs prospects like Mesar Roy and a few others, he'll even guhle before I seriously doubted his offensive potential. So get out of here with the homerism. You're playing dumb. Hutson shattered all kinds of collegiate records and backer is a 5oa pick in a deeper draft class. What exactly does parekh have to suggest he would have gone 5 OA over the likes of simashev and reinbacher ? He didn't even go above levshunov who in my opinion is in the same tier as reinbacker and yakemchuk who is below those 2
Sure by stat watching you would think that but by watching him u would notice he improved tremendously his mobility and defense in his second seasonHutson didn't improve year to year. He got owned and pinned in his own zone at ES in the NHL.
I have seen one post draft ranking. I think Parekh was 6th. Guess who wasn't in the top 5....
