Yeah sure let’s just miss the opportunity to play Newhook on Suzukis wing, im only asking for this season to see what we got

I didn’t mean it like that

But fine , but I want to see some games of that duo

Lines will be weak

 

[LesCanadiens]

IMO, HuGo key rebuild strategy as already demonstrated is to upgrade assets via Dach / Newhook type deals.

Unfortunately I don’t believe a 25-32OA pick holds much value at all & even if packaged w a young D not named Guhle and maybe Struble won’t get an underachieving young NHL ready top-6 asset

Well, a pretty similar package got Newhook. So you never know. That was a late 1st (#31) a 2nd (#37) and AHL'er D Fairbrother.

Do we pick up Julien Gauthier, now that Monahan has been traded?

i would personally. Laval needs to make the playoffs so I don't want to take Roy or Heinemen away. We could also cosplay him as the Mountie and beat up the enemy team since he is a Rougeau.

Is he a center?

 

[Guess]

There was a Bobrov interview a few months ago where he mentioned that they don't just evaluate a scout's performance based on who they draft but also on the reports they make for players they don't end up drafting.

So they aren't just attributing past failed picks as poor development, which we know was happening, they are looking at the whole picture which we as fans don't have access too.

If the players they choose to draft are the issue then maybe it's Bobrov and Lapointe who are the problem..

You need experienced and trustworthy people at the helm of the ship, and I've never believed in these two, my opinion being reinforced having watched the last two behind the draft videos.

 

[Guess]

It sure does it gives Kent a lot of credibility in the league

Would love to see a players poll of what they think of each of the teams like what the Athletic recently did.

Don't think we have any data to reinforce that opinion yet (although I do believe it, MSL and Hughes are making a difference)

This was the right move, but if you think the Habs were lacking scoring depth before, watch what happens now.

Dach and Monahan were the guys that glued together what ever depth they had on forward.

I wonder who our centers will be until Newhook is back..

Yup
The well will be dry

Top 5 pick now

 

[Draft]

Do we pick up Julien Gauthier, now that Monahan has been traded?

I think I would. Great tools, worth seeing if he’ll put them together at the end of a season that means nothing on a roster desperate for warm bodies. Put him on the top line, I don’t care. Waive him again if he’s not a fit, he’s a great AHL player if he clears.

Roy comes up
Newhook to centre

I wonder if those two could developp chemistry. Long term Newhook is not really a center but both players are viewed as second line forwards.

It will be hard to watch till the end of the season but it might change our 7th pick into a 6th, 5th or even a 4th.

Laval will send us someone, I hope Laval will make the PO and that's something important in their developpment.

It seems that he will be back very soon, maybe even after the All-star break. KH mentioned a couple of AHL centres could fill the holes for a while.

I don't think the management minds if we lose a few games and improve our draft position a bit.

And if the lists created by the scouts was generally good and it was Timmins making the final decision then wouldn't it make sense that Hughes keeps most of the scouting staff and is fine with doing little more then hire Bobrov?

 

[Bacchus1]

Do we pick up Julien Gauthier, now that Monahan has been traded?

Not a bad idea! He isn't a centre, but he is big and strong and local. Keep him up for the year and see what he does. Worst case scenario he is sent down to the AHL next season.

 

[rahad]

Is he a center?

He play on the right wing. 6ft4, 26 years old and speak french. Would be perfect for us (with Monahan gone).

I feel bad for people having to pay hard earned money to watch this team the rest of the way.

This is always how it was supposed to look, frankly its looked better than it should have all things considered.

I wonder if the other 6 teams ahead of us might take a flyer on him, though.

We got lucky with Kovacevic. He should take a chance with Julien Gauthier. He only cost 800k and is only 26 years old.

I mean I want RHP and Ylonen to get good ice time and they're already losing ice time to useless plugs like Gallagher, Person, and Armia. Do we need another plug winger? I think we need a center.
