HF Habs: Out of Town Thread: 2024 Playoff Edition

[red devil]

If the Stars win Johnston can then celebrate with his 1st legal drink in the US as he will be 21 in about 2.5 hrs.

 

[red devil]

I forgot that Dallas actually traded back in 2021 draft and were still able to select Johnston.

Hopefully he got that manba mentality instead.

Dadonov is garbage

Dadonov is garbage

Of course he scores a goal

 

[The Great Weal]

Stars look special, every player is buying into the system

 

[Stive Morgan]

Dadonov is garbage

Once again I talk shit about a player and they score right after

 

[McGees]

We should have never let him go.
Dadonov.
The.
Goat.

 

[The Great Weal]

Walker/Girard/Manson isn't ideal as three of your top 4 dmen.

 

[The Real Timo]

And now Drou-Drou is promoted to the 1st line.

We should trade our first for him. Throw in. Xhekaj too.

 

[McGees]

Avs just aren’t as deep as they were when they won cup. Dallas vs FLA final.

 

[The Great Weal]

Pretty crazy that the Stars would have swept the Avs if they didn't have that 3rd period meltdown in game 1.

“But, we saved our draft picks!”

I got bad chills of when Bergy saved his draft picks instead of surrounding Price with a good supporting cast during his prime.

 

[Kimota]

With Green hilariously landing in Ottawa, if Toronto gets McLelland(which I shit you not, they are interviewing) I will go to Church again.

 

[Non Player Canadiens]

Dadonov is garbage

A very deep team like Dallas thinks otherwise

 

[WeThreeKings]

Dallas Stars are proof that you can find some very good value elsewhere in the draft.

Hopefully if we don't acquire Necas that they are able to find a Johnston with the Winnipeg pick.

It's a rare quantity before top quality approach that has worked like a charm. They basically have 4 lines that can score now at any given time. They took a chance of guys who had fallen a tad and needed some work at the draft ( Robertson, Harley,Johnston, Stankoven) and it really paid off.

Or we get another Scherbak, Julsen, McCarron, etc... Win some, lose lots more.

Using exceptions as examples of draft policies isn't that great.

I mean to be fair COVID let a lot of guys get under scouted. Johnson had 30 points in 50 games in his rookie year and didn't play his draft season at all. Stakoven was stolen under similar circumstances.

These arent guys that usually drop that far, a once in a lifetime event helped.

They got Oettinger and Robertson pre covid.

 

[Tyson]

They got Oettinger and Robertson pre covid.

They got Hintz pre covid in the 2nd round. These Dallas scouts know what they are doing.

Dallas picked those guys especially in the OHL. This is never a bad move to pick in the best junior hockey league in the World. I rather pick in the OHL than pick a no name in the slovak league or allsvenskan in sweden
