Last year Habs said they were dropping going to dinner. I guess last year was planned as a different Combine and everyone complained so they went back to normal this year or something like that...

Demidov is a HAB
So they had a bunch of kids at dinner with them at the same time?
I'd say to read nothing into it.

They had individual dinners with Iginla, Dickinson and Lindstrom. No other dinners have been reported.

Yeah I don’t get dinner with both Iginla and Dickinson last night. One must be a mistake and was Wednesday. I can’t imagine how awkward it would be if only the prospect ate since the Habs brass already had supper 
The Iginla dinner was confirmed by Iginla himself. As for Lindstrom.Yeah I don’t get dinner with both Iginla and Dickinson last night. One must be a mistake and was Wednesday. I can’t imagine how awkward it would be if only the prospect ate since the Habs brass already had supper
The dickinson dinner was just included in an article about lindstrom. I haven't heard any quotes directly from him.

In fact the article said the Habs brass was seen with Dickinson in the evening. Not that they had dinner with him.
... And yeah. We're actually discussing who had dinner, when and with whom on a message board. Congrats folks

I remember the great cope about Slafkovsky no dinner but Cooley and Wright did.
I don't think it's really much of anything, but it could be.. either way, I have no issues with any of the reported dinners and I think it's Demidov or Lindstrom regardless.

I'm worried about Gorton, he's eating way too many dinners this week.

Not a comparison. I said he looked like him with his intensity at times. He's still a fantastic prospect, just not a #5.
Poutine every day during your birthday week is like a rite of passage.

Musty, Geekie, Guenther, Holtz, Boldy? Pretty much yes. None of them went top 5 and only one of them would be redrafted close to 5.

Iginla sees himself as a centre moving forward and I still don’t understand it. There’s really not much about his game that screams centre to me.

I find players and agents love to say that cause it adds more value, meaning drafted higher meaning more $.

Pouliot was a massive case of a spectator, that's what I meant. He could turn it on like no other and most often he just wouldn't, probably not for laziness but being dumb. I figure it's a 50/50 split on that for Sennecke, or he's just not use to his size. (Even so, he was average height before, so this excuse isn't good.)
Sennecke will never be a top 5 goalscorer in the league like Carter was.

Many say that to be drafted higher it seems lol
Some teams asked Slaf at the combine if he could play center
Maybe reunite the Medecine Hat crew (Lindstrom, Basha and in 2026 Mckenna
