oooh the local scribes will not be happy

 

[Hoiles]

Getting former Senaturds has been good for the tank the past couple of years, if it ain't broke don't fix it

 

[Habsy]

Jake Evans replacement

Doubt it.

775k and ufa. He's a warm body at center and golfing in April waiting for a team to call.

 

[CH1]

Dvorak replacement

 

[Habsy]

Except Dvo is better than White. How long do you want to tank anyway?

that would be a great poll.

 

[CH1]

Tanking ended a while back. We just suck and going thru growing pains now.
Next year:
We’re getting Zegras (or someone like that)
We’re getting Dach back so we’ll have two good lines.

don't expect much from Dach until maybe January given his knee injury

He’s reportedly almost ready now — they will give him extra time of course (and doctor insisted on a written 8 month rehab guarantee)

He will skate this summer and should be ready by puck drop next year

Need a big year or Habs need to find another one

His absence, due to our total lack of depth up front, will likely cost us about 10 points this season, if not more.

Which top six forward goes down next season early?

It usually is not until the second season after that you are back completely, hopefully he is not that type. In fairness, that rule might apply more to football than hockey but it remains.

Nick is damn near indestructible, both from wuhan and injury so not him, my guess would be 22

Probably Dach

Which hopefully nets Celibrini or Zegras

Colin White's an NHL body to fill the jersey, nothing more.

Not convinced he’s even an upgrade on Gignac at this point.

 

[GGpX]

Six of one, half a dozen of the other.

I think they rather have Gignac playing in Laval for a playoff push.

Pourquoi pas les deux?
