They wanted a big defensive D with a physical presence....that's he should become. He was a late 1st round pick

The habs forward i loved the most, became the GM i hated the most, no idea wtf happened to a guy with such a brilliant hockey mind, but he was a (frank)ing piss poor GM, one of the worst i ever seen, and that is something coming from a habs fan, cause we had some (frank)ing doozys......

Ok, thats fine. But if he turns into a a young Hal Gill, he will be a bust. Its good that he is big, but if you can hardly move out there, you are pretty much useless.

Houle was worse.

Gainey started to suck after he lost his daughter. He admitted himself he wasn,t 100% there afterwards.

He isn't that bad (skating) but don't expect a very mobile guy. He did very well in the short Habs training camp, they say he is close to be ready to make the jump with the Habs. We'll see next September...

Apparently it was Gauthier's work. He saw McDonagh play once and dediced he was a bust, so he gave his report to Gainey.

Don't forget Gauthier also evaluated Gomez as a top 5 skating centers in the league.
