Definitely the .org.’s fault for drafting him. Can’t be that they just noticed how slow he is.
We missed Pasternak by 1 place. Nobody after Sherbak, and many before him, have accomplished much either. Ho Sang is about the only other option.

He can still stay in the stands and wait for an opportunity.
Chaput is invisible. Deslauriers and Peca too.
Sherbak got injured a bunch and resisted coaching. He was also slow. That it isn’t the organizations fault.
Way too much rumbling for a player who doesn’t have the skill to be an nhl top 6 player nor the intelligence or drive to even be a bottom 6 player.
Literally a player of zero use.

I don't think he's that slow but I would question Timmins and his staff for drafting a kid in the 1st round with questionable work ethic. He has a bit of an odd skating stride but I never thought he was slow.
In regards to the draft record, the only possible thing more foolish than making terrible picks would be to clearly know that the picks have busted, but still hang on to the dream until the players are are 26 years old.
I know. f***ing idiots.can't believe we waived Scherbak instead of Chaput/D'Agostino/Peca/Deslauriers.
Top 12 you mean. Hudon. Way way more potential.Whose position in the top 9 should he have taken?
No. Making terrible picks in the first round is more stupid.In regards to the draft record, the only possible thing more foolish than making terrible picks would be to clearly know that the picks have busted, but still hang on to the dream until the players are are 26 years old.
Never understood the love for Hudon. He brings almost nothing. Good effort is about all I can say about the kid.Top 12 you mean. Hudon. Way way more potential.

Hudon's got one foot out the door but Scherbak's gotta show something to his coaches. That's just how it is in the NHL. Nobody gives you a shot until you force them (or have enough reputation and hype). Scherbak knows he didn't earn a spot.Top 12 you mean. Hudon. Way way more potential.
This kid will feel hard done by. I did not care about whether we should keep him or not, but I feel we could have got something in return. Its a good gamble for L.A.
he has lost a lot of time to injuries, I don't know if he resisted coaching, where did you hear that? I also don't think he's slow. The organization did a text book case of how not to develop talent imo. You have a 19 year old kid that had a major knee injury in the off-season, he goes to the AHL and doesn't look 100%, gets injured, comes back and gets injured in his first game.
So after being out all off-season, and most of the regular season, when he comes back they move him to a much more difficult position that he didn't play in juniors so he hasn't played for years. Meanwhile all the other players are in mid season form while a just turned 20 year old Scherbak has had 2 major injuries and his defensive game was **** so moving him to a brand new position at this time while also putting more pressure on his already weak defensive game. So of course he gets exposed, they give up and move him back to RW, then for some reason put him at LW. All while trying to get his legs back.
Then the next year they put him with Audette, they were tied at the hip, the problem though is you have the 2 youngest forwards playing together all the time, two forwards with weak defensive games and not the best efforts and worst of all two playmakers. Finally they put him with Hudon and Terry later in the season.
total BS, Scherbak at 21/22 was on pace for 87 pts in Laval last year on the worst team in the league. He certainly has the skill to be in the top 6 if you can live with his mistakes and boneheaded plays at times. He could be in the KHL in a year or two or maybe he starts to put it together but he's not short on skill.
I don't think he's that slow but I would question Timmins and his staff for drafting a kid in the 1st round with questionable work ethic. He has a bit of an odd skating stride but I never thought he was slow.
He is a terrible 4 th liner the way the Habs use a 4 th line.Top 12 you mean. Hudon. Way way more potential.
Disappointing that we lost DLR and now Scherbak for nothing. Very curious to see how these two do on new teams over the next few seasons.
Well for now DLR isn't a huge loss... playing 8min a game in Detroit.
can't believe we waived Scherbak instead of Chaput/D'Agostino/Peca/Deslauriers.
Agreed. Very strange how they managed Scherbak and didn't even play him one game this year.
Do other teams leave as much draft-litter on the side of the road as we do? It's embarrassing.Disappointing that we lost DLR and now Scherbak for nothing. Very curious to see how these two do on new teams over the next few seasons.
