How does he go 21 then?

Brayden Point went in the third round , Nick went 13th after solid junior careers

Players develop differently

Not sure Hage will play center at NHL level...

He'll probably be a winger that drives the play....Kucherov and Kane style (not saying he'll be as good as them)

Thats fine gives us another solid skilled winger to go with Demigod

I meant HuGo (if Dach had worked we’d be golden)

But yeah Dach’s next contract offer will be interesting

1 year prove it deal is the best me thinks Hugo gives him

So have Evans as 2C all of next year?

Kapenen

The Habs need an actual 2C by the start of the season, not by the deadline. The Atlantic is going to be even crazier next season with Florida back . . . the Habs are not assured of a playoff spot.

Ideally but I'm not rushing anything and I don't think Hughes will either.
