Habs are clearly better on paper than last year.

Who is better?

Super Freak or Gally?

I'm not entirely convinced. Shortened season is real x-factor. We'll have to wait and see, but easier to say they'll be bad than good.

Habs resolutions

1- Don't buyout Gomez until next summer
2- Play Gomez 20+min per game
3- Play Bourque with Gomez
4- Play Kaberle 25min per game

It's a x-factor for everyone.

Another high draft pick will be more useful longterm for the habs.

I wonder what their record will be with Armdog in the lineup...

Markov will be hurt.
- mr.peanut

pretty safe prediction

and we draft Drouin 3rd
- Feeling_Glucky

Only if Barkov is already drafted.

Markov will be hurt.

yes it is an x-factor for everyone.

High draft picks are always more useful over the long-term. But running a team is about succeeding both in the short-term and the long-term. Seems to me, the Canadiens intend on trying to do both.

Habs will draft Swiss D Eliot Antonietti.. He is 6’6″.

meh

Only if Barkov is already drafted.
- Dgrdnr

no Drouin has passed Barkov

pretty safe prediction
- EricEngels

It really comes down to is during which game.

Guys like Gionta, Cole, Bourque, Pacs, Moen, Price have not played since last April, I don't expect much and let's be honest...the team hasn't improved since last year skill wise, the D still sucks, guys who had career years (Cole/Pacs) will have a hard time repeating. This would be a GREAT year to suck and grab another top 5 pick.

no Drouin has passed Barkov
- Feeling_Glucky

I like Drouin but I would still draft Barkov before him.

1. Barkov
2. Drouin
3. Jones
4. Mackinnon
5. Monahan

BJ's will take MacKinnon 1st.
