The state of the Habs Rebuild - The Next step

I would like for them to make room for more young players though.

They are more likely to re-sign their UFAs at this point. Their plan was to make the playoffs bounds by 2025-2026, you don't do that with 3-4 new rookies on the line-up...

It's true that many players need a large chunk of time to fully heal and move past the 'injury-prone' tag. We saw it with Monahan, as we did with Markov years ago, as we hopefully will with Dach.

Unfortunately, Laine just came back from a long recovery stretch. He missed almost all of last season and now looks like he'll miss all of this one. Not good.

I could see hugo offer him a 4 yr extension at $3.5m/ prior to next season..

If he can ever put it together it would be very welcomed.

He did much better in that win of 5-0. His level of play improved a bit. He deserve a chance. If he doesn't play enough, Rockets.
