and Mathias Brunet has been very vocal about the "uncertainty" for that #1 pick, not saying he's wrong but he's been hammering on this for a while now.

It is a game of "The Habs will pick Wright with the #1 Pick, but I am gonna say something else so I can say I told you so afterwards and you will see how great I am. And when the Habs do pick Wright with the #1, I will then say that was the obvious choice or the Habs could not make a deal they felt was good enough."

Ouin ça pis son idée d'échanger le choix pour descendre pour les deux choix des Blue Jackets. Idée intéressante I guess, mais me semble que Wright est pas mal un slam dunk avec un besoin criant au centre depuis des décennies. C'est pas comme si c'était un reach comme KK.

c'est essentiellement son point, que Wright est pas tant un "slam dunk" que les gens le prétendent, mais tsé des fois les journalistes aiment semer la controverse lol...

Wright is the right pick, but to be fair Slafkovský has been doing things internationally that almost no 18 year old has. It's a really cool time to be a Habs fan for the retool.

Il est pourtant premier sur toutes les listes que j'ai vu passer. Le débat semble plus sur qui va être repêché après lui. Parce que les autres joueurs ont pas juste des qualités non plus. Peut-être que dans 4 ou 5 ans on va se dire qu'on aurait du faire si ou ça, mais le repêchage est pas dans 4 ou 5 ans.

Retool? Pretty sure it's a full on rebuild this time.

un peu comme Mash l'a souligné, si jamais Wright fait pas la job, il va pouvoir dire "je vous l'avais dit!!" lol

how about legislating it properly..? it's simply too easy right now to acquire firearms... you're right, it's going to take a lot of time, but they have to start somewhere.
- Pat1993

I agree with that. I'm not a huge pro-gun guy either. Proper background checks should be done on anybody who wants to buy a gun.

One would think a middle ground could be found here. People blame americans in general but I have seen 90% of them want some kind of background checks. It's a minority that blocks everything it seems.

Mtl can't do the same as NY as top UFAS don't want to play in Montreal, year in and year out. The very opposite of the Rangers.

bah, sure it might not be the most attractive destination right now but I think there's been a lot of exaggeration with this as well.

damn... did he ever talk about what his intentions were? I know Florida will be in a pickle with their cap situation but you'd think they'll do all the necessary gymnastics to keep the guy

It will all come out, eventually.

I expect it will be extremely messy.
