I’ve had enough of the “Montreal needs players from Québec” narrative.

Bravo Karine for putting it out there.....choose the best player available......build character and team spirit...#gohabsgo!.....everyone loves a winner.

The funniest part of this narrative is the fact this is total fantasy…

True that many Quebec’s based fans are dreaming of the next Guy Lafleur but last generational French Canadian player was Mario Lemieux… OK maybe Vincent Lecavalier but we are talking about decades ago…

When is last time Habs took a Frenchy at the expense of a better player in first round???

Leblanc and we are not talking about a top pick here… and this was over 10 years ago…

Some people here are just playing that broken record including Mrs Hains….

no, because we don't know for sure at what rank Arizona will pick, and MTL will probably finish low in the standings anyway

and

no, because that would be silly.

my 2 cents.

- Pat1993


Using a first on a player that's going to be good but not great is terrible value. Better to get two players that will outscore him significantly combined.

Arizona are a lottery team next year. Even 8f they end up with the third or fourth pick you still get a player better than Wright.
