Around the League 2019-2026 Edition

I think the part that makes the least sense is that the erstwhile centrepiece was another winger...who is a prospect over in Russia still

made the team weaker now with it also being a serious gamble they'd ever come out ahead at all

no wonder Hughes was so hot that Treliving bumblefucked at the goal line
 
They also came so close to making the finals but didn't. Nor did they actually come close. But still, almost the same!

Nobody in the Habs org believes that tho. From Lane Hutson to Kent Hughes, everyone on the Habs payroll said the team is very far away and has a lot of work to do.
 
Bergevin was also dumb and biased and racist....or mystery boxes gonna mystify.
He was just enamored by what was talked about as a top 3 talent in the 2017 draft. Picked 6th vs 13th (Suzuki). But yeah in the end the numbers didn't really justify much separation between the two, so you just use whatever edge you think you have and play the odds. As we've discussed, no one knows how good just good prospects will project. They're not all McKenna's!

It's kind of rude by Hughes too. Like bullying the special needs kid.
 
Imagine being in a position where you feel morally forced to follow through on a deal that you got hosed on but couldn’t finalize in time. Haha.
 
I wonder if Bundy actually acknowledged his assent to that arrangement of finalizing it later, and that’s what Pelley heard that sealed the coffin.
 
Glass over Suzuki was just racism and sizism tbh.

Suzuki was always a plus plus skater as a prospect while skating was Glass' major flaw.

And their junior production was pretty much the same.

Draft year (Suzuki 4 months younger)

Glass: 80gms, 36gls, 103pts (37gl/106pt pace)
Suzuki: 82gms, 53gls, 119pts (53gl/119pt pace)

D+1

Glass: 76gms, 41gls, 115pts (44gl/124pt pace)
Suzuki: 75gms, 45gls, 112pts (49gl/123pt pace)

D+2

Glass: 39gms, 16gls, 70pts (34gl/147pt pace)
Suzuki: 83gms, 50gls, 136pts (49gl/134pt pace)


Vegas was just dumb and biased and racist.
Probably. They also choose glass like 8 picks earlier.

They could have had necas and Suzuki.
