2023 Habs Lineup

I don't expect the team to be nearly as bad as it was last season, and I do think they'll be in the mix for the last playoff spot for a considerable chunk of the year.

I'm very curious to see if management will hold on to assets like Monahan & Pearson if they're close to the playoffs, or if they'll wisely sell them off to a contender.
I do not trust in any way the team will stay healthy. Expect Galllagher and Monahan to be out for long stretches, Armia and Evans will miss at least 20 games each etc etc. Of course they will have a decent start like last season , because other teams will not have their defense schemes down pat yet. But eventually it will be a long painful season, expect to draft in the top 6.
 
That will happen if he’s healthy as well.
He could very well be at the end of his rope with the team. Wonder if they may put him on waivers to see if someone picks up his contact. Also Gallagher has looked slower than ever in training camp so far. Will managment go so far as waivering him to Laval? Probably not, but who knows, if he can't keep up with the play anymore...

Gally is toast , team handed 2 disaster contracts along with Price
 
That’s the thing, as an owner you have to hire the calculating smart asshole, not the guy you’d prefer to have lunch with every day at the office

I think at one time the Leafs had two Pearsons, but we don't

I would give RHP the shot first with 14-22. I don't expect the same shooting percentage but he's a Trottier type worker. Let's see if he can be the puck retriever for them. Someone without ego too.

Forgot aboot Dvorak lol
 
I like Harvey-Pinard, he’s legitimately earned his spot and it’s a great story.

But he simply is not Top 6 material. I appreciate he can fill in from time to time, but nope. Not a regular.

He looks like the right kind of winger to eventually help Owen Beck ease into the league for a couple of of season.
