I feel like this is the right place for this. We can still end up bottom 5.

14 losses and 14 Wins

maybe go 14-11-3, honestly, if we play better hockey. That puts us @ 86 points. probably pick 11-13. Bottom 5? To get there we need to be really, really bad. 5-20-3.

My guess is we end up in the 8-10 range.

Who here would do 10 + 15 for 6?

Who here would do 10 + 15 for 6?

Depends who is available at 6. If there was someone still available that HuGo see another Demidov, Hage type oversight then they should do it.

Loved him as a Hab but if I could go back in time I still wouldn't give him that contract.

 

[Habs7631]

Who here would do 10 + 15 for 6?

I do if one of Desnoyers/Martone are there.

 

[Grate n Colorful Oz]

He’s a couple of years away. He and Fowler are in that second group with Roy, Mailloux and other good prospects who might make it with us.

Hage is a higher tier of prospect than Mailloux and especially Roy.

I doubt it..I'll be happy if we can at least be inside the top 10.

Theres a chance we could come out of the 1st round with Mrtka (RHD) and Ryabkin (C). Id be quite happy with that.

 

[WeThreeKings]

I do if one of Desnoyers/Martone are there.

And if they are, no team is trading down.

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

Hage is a higher tier of prospect than Mailloux and especially Roy.

That’s fine but I’m not including him or Fowler in the RB, Demidov group.

That doesn’t mean those players can’t be hugely impactful but I’m not including them in that comparison.

No one.

A top 4 pick is still a possibility

Win +/-

11th Habs +1
10th No Name brand +1
9th Quacks -1
8th Blues -2
7th Pens -2
6th Flyers -3
5th Sabres -4
4th Cracken -6
3rd Preys -9
2nd Faux-Hawks -15
1st Baby Sharks -19

If Desnoyers is still available yes

To me it's a given we get #4 or #5

 

[LaP]

Drafting 11th and 14th as of today

Calgary needs to grab a few wins before the deadline.

nope they need to lose more. The west is very weak. Vancouver are the only one fighting for the last playoff spot in the West. The rest are in the bottom.

I'm not so sure about bottom 5. Flyers, Pens, Seattle and blues are very bad team. We struggled hard the last 2 years to draft #5. 7-10 feel like is going to be our draft position.

Hoping a playoff team gives up a first or second for Matheson

Well they may be very bad teams.... but they are 2 points behind us. So I don't see how that is so hard to fall behind them. We are bad too, if you didn't notice

Seattle are 5 points behind us with 2 extra game played. Is not impossible for us to drop to the bottom 5. But is going to be very hard.

We are playing badly now. But the team had also show they can play great hockey (if they don't get injure). We will see. I feel like finishing 7-8 after that crazy win streak is huge for us.

We are going to finish with the 4th best odds and end up picking 5th once again, after we win the lottery with Calgary's 11th overall pick.

1. Habs via Calgary - Schaefer
2. Sharks - Martone
3. Hawks - Misa
4. Nashville - Hagens
5. Habs - Desnoyers/Frondell

If Calgary won the lottery, they'd keep the pick and we'd get Florida's.

 

[yianik]

I would've agreed if Guhle didn't get hurt. With him gone though I think we're gonna finish in the 70-75 point range, slightly worse than last year.

This team seems very effected by moral, when they're in a slump it gets into their heads and takes ages to get out of it. With Guhle gone I think we're going to be in a slump up until the trade deadline, then when we sell off pieces it's only going to get worse.

It's a very young team so that's not a surprise. We only have a few vets to keep things steady moral wise and keep things in perspective.

 

[Grate n Colorful Oz]

We are playing badly now. But the team had also show they can play great hockey (if they don't get injure).

Guhle ain't coming back this season and we barely beat the sharks without him, by far the worst team in the league. After this weekend, we'll probably be -1 in win+/-. If Kraken win their game versus Calgary, we'll only be +4 over them with 26 games to go.

We'll probably be sellers before and on March 7th, which will make it even more likely we finish around 4th to 6th last.
