2023 Draft and UFA Thread

[Habsy]

Perreault & Wood skyrocketed. They were both late firsts a few weeks ago.

It's wheeler though.

 

[GGpX]

Sure, but I don't think it's a hot take type of declaration. Matthew Wood's a big forward who's nearly at a PPG rate in the NCAA. That in of itself is pretty impressive. And Perreault's been a 2PPG player all year.

 

[Habsy]

I would stay away from Wood.

He wrote up a glowing report on Fantilli and Michkov.

 

[GEEMAN]

Sale/Dvorsky in your sad scenario

Barlow is my pick with Florida’s pick if it’s 10-15

Pussy Wilde is now claiming we will not like who we will take if we draft 7th or 11th. He claims Gorton only wants size and won't take Benson or Smith. He says if we don't win first overall, we will take a bad player. He claims Hughes doesn't have the say on who we take, it's Gorton who will go off the board at 5 or higher

I luv how it’s now a forgone conclusion Habs will draft 7-10OA

 

[lecoqsportif]

Looks more like 4-6. A bunch of western dogs currently behind the Habs will play each other, thereby guaranteeing they accumulate points. Meanwhile, the Habs schedule is brutal.

 

[MON4NHLTOR4MLB]

It’s not far fetched to say they will screw up a high draft pick yet again. It’s all they do, been terrible at drafting high for years

 

[TheCountofMonteCristo]

Of course, the puss Wilde is claiming we should have taken Cooley

 

[Krustchev]

He’s probably right, however.

 

[wiseguy1]

That's it then, Habs managment has the wood for size and Wood.

 

[TheCountofMonteCristo]

too small, we can't have 5'9/10 and 5'11 as the starting two centres

Cooley will be a lot better than Suzuki, so you could trade Suzuki eventually.

we aren't trading the captain

 

[Krustchev]

we aren't trading the captain

So move him to the wing.

he might not know anything but this is kind of my fear, tbh

I have a lot more faith in Hughes than Gorton

you're trolling now...

It’s Brian Wilde.

If I could re-draft, I’d take Cooley.
