18 years old dont typically grow 4 inches.Samuel Blais was a very smallish player when drafted by St-Louis... Look how tall and big he is now !

He’ll be a PP threat. Said predraft, he reminds me of Galchenyuk.Anyone know if Kaliyev's game is supposed to translate to the NHL level?
I watched him and my only question mark is if he gets any better ( may have hit his ceiling ). Also, if he can get stronger as well.He’ll be a PP threat. Said predraft, he reminds me of Galchenyuk.

I saw him quietly dominate the game. 3 points in an effort you can only describe as safe but effective. I like that part about his game but will it translate.. well those are my answers anyway.
I was talking kalyievIt will translate IF habs can finally surround their smallish players with bigger, skilled ones.
Dorofeyev is the kind of gamble this team needs indeed. Highly, highly talented.Hope it works out for him as we passed on a good player for him. A lot of draft day hype for Dorofeyev on this board.
Yep, has now a better PPG rate than Caufield and he is + 18 while Caufield is a minus 4... Would suck if Newhook has a better NHL carreer than Caufield...I know we like Caufield, but Newhook has found another gear and been on a tear.
Do you know if H-East is a weaker division than the Big-10 though? Big-10 seems pretty strong from what Ive seen so far...I know we like Caufield, but Newhook has found another gear and been on a tear.

Idk why posters here acted like Caufield and Newhook werent close. Heck I think I had Newhook like 1 spot ahead.I know we like Caufield, but Newhook has found another gear and been on a tear.
Best player available = consensus from all the central scouting or international scouting. And best player available to the Canadiens own list.
I’m not saying I want to pick Askarov, but it when it’s our turn and he is actually the highest on the Habs list, then they might go for him.
I will always go with the narrative BPA. Always. List are made to have a certain consensus. Don’t reach for need if you believe another player is better or could turn out better.
HughesWho was the consensus BPA when KK was taken 3rd? Was is Zadina or Tkachuk?

Zadina was the consensus top 3...
Actually I remember that after we got 3rd from the lottery most fans were posting welcome to Montreal Zadina.
Tkachuk was considered top 10 though and many list had him as high as top 3 because of his intangibles.
Buffalo badly wanted Tkachuk and offered us O'reilly for the pick. Which we refused.
Nah I was making a little joke. In reality, Zadina was the consensus #3 till probably February when KK started rising on every list. On draft day a lot of the publications still had Zadina #3. People here were all about KK , with a few Hughes fans here and there and a strong anti-Tkachuk vibe .I was high on him pre-draft but not so sure he was the consensus #3 BPA.
To be honest, Zadina was considered #3 but his skating was worrisome and lack of speed and how he could have been unidimensional type of winger. During that draft year I always liked Tkachuk (not a popular vote amongst us fans that year though) and Noah Dobson, who I still believe will become the best defenceman of that draft, over Hughes.
For this draft, I like Holtz a lot too. The kid already looks to have a good frame and very talented. This is a cool behind the scenes with him. Just put the subtitles.
