HF Habs: The official 2023-2024 tank thread

[WeThreeKings]

Still a few decent FW prospects will be around at that slot if we take into consideration Button's list

Don't need to take Button's list into consideration.. the defense are going high, the forwards going high are Celebrini and Lindstrom.. after that, it's anyones guess when the forwards go because defense is generally picked high when available and a lot of the teams still tanking with us have a need on the defensive side of the puck.

need the wild to beat the flyers tonight

need the wild to beat the flyers tonight

They also need to beat the Coyotes tomorrow. We're so demanding..

 

[McGees]

need the wild to beat the flyers tonight

Wild are pretty trash especially without Kaprizov so don’t hold your breath.

We will trade more guys at the deadline this year... I imagine similar... but I'll still guess we are 5-8.... Then hopefully win the lottery this year!

Minny blows a 3-1 lead and loses to Philly.
1 point at least.

Safe to say between 70-80 points this year. Should be enough to get us into the 6-10 range where we are guaranteed a good forward.

Or an even better D!!

 

[Gravity]

Can anyone name me another rebuilding team playing with Monty level goaltending? Maybe there's a trend....

Most OT points in the league, raise the banner.

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

Extra points aren’t helping the pick situation

 

[Balthazar]

Speaking of OT points...

How many points they have earned this year while being the worst team on the ice? 20? More than that?

A lot more than those rare times when they weren't getting point but were the better team, that's for damn sure.

OT points and the lack of wins in regulation are saying that the "progression" is nothing but smoke and mirrors.

 

[KevSkillz4]

Between bottom 6-12 by the end of the season, I'm totally fine with that!! We never know with the lottery anyway!!

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Stupid point again

 

[McGees]

At least Minny….never mind, they’re losing 5-0 to Yotes.

 

[HabsCowboysOwn]

Dumb team keeps shooting itself in the foot by racking up dumb loser points, more at 11.

 

[Michoulicious]

Useless point. Play Allen for godsake

How do you always stay so.... positive? Those OT points are pissing off everyone in this thread lol.

Pretty much what I’ve been saying all season. Too many crap teams and we are so thirsty for overtime’s lol.

Me too I don't like OT points, but even without that, at least 5 teams are better tankers so far. Sooo it's ok. Anyway Habs can still grab a really good player at this range. Suzuki is a 13th overall, Caufield is a 15th overall and Guhle a 16th overall.

 

[BozoTheClown]

This is a bottom 5 team.
Need to trade Monahan, Pearson, possibly Savard and one of Allen or Montembeault.
Take chance on players with size and skills like Riley Tufte.
