Before we get 8,000+ PLD proposals, hopefully we look into acquiring a potential goalie of the future. Even if we draft one, it’ll be years until they are ready.
The goalie is probably the easiest asset to get by trade or free agency. Also, even the best goalie of the world (as was Price ) will win the cup if playing in front of a bad team. It's a team game, so the success is more about a well balanced roster, few key players , a good depth , and a good goalie, of course.
The Habs have already few solid goalies prospects and Montainbault is having surprising stats considering the team he plays for. Dichow, Dobes, Vrberic and Primeau have all been dominating, at least for a time.
So, in fact, what is funny about the fans pronostics of the team, is that we often claim that Habs need to adresse some weakness in the next draft, without knowing that it 's already have been made.Same as all the claims for dmen last seasons ; It was already done and we see the result on the4 ice this season.
