One of the deepest draft in recent years, loaded with offensive talent and we draft a guy no scout has ever called a stud, everyone says a good all around D.

Wanted the russian Bedard.
Got the austrian Seider.

Even though i was initially disappointed. This might actually be the best defensive prospect on the Montreal Canadiens.

The kid seems to have all the tools to succeed. Plus he looks like a cool dude.

Nolan Patrick was called a stud.

At 5th overall if he's not our best defensive prospect there's a problem and our best defensive prospect is probably still Lane Hutson.

David Fischer was called a good all around defensemen

I mean, people could just shut the (frank) up and wait to see how the kid pans out, but that's not an option, of course.

Won't happen. It's a very boring pick, but we won't really now for 3-4 years who was the right pick.

It was never an option, it's not how professional sports work.

You divide the fanbase in two, the blind optomistics like you and Scabeh and the angry whiners like me and Bicmacdaddy.

We fight, makeup, cry, laugh and we repeat because we haven't won a cup in 30 years.

exactly. I think a lot of habs fans have this trauma about drafting, because there is a long history of very bad picks, but at the same time I wish we could just trust this new management team for now, and see where it leads us. oh well.

At least 4 years, he'll probably play two years in Europe, one in the Ahl then his rookie season.

But let's just all act like we have all the answers today and have some good dirty internet fights

Pressure is on. Slaf instead of Cooley, Reinbacher instead of Michkov/Leonard... Time will tell but for now it's not exciting.

I can't I was promised the sam things with the old management team and now I'm scared to trust again

Pretty much like 90% of new picks... 3-4 years. That said if we really got a Roman Josi lite, wooo-hooo.

hence the use of the word "trauma" lol.

I will never complain about Slaf, size speed every tool is there, even if he doesn't pan on I was on board with the risk and the potential for once.

I think it's a Guhle lite with the premium of already bad knees

woohoo

holy (frank)....the crying from this fanbase is pathetic.

Reinbacher will be a big minutes player. Hutson will need a solid RHD partner and that's Reinbacher.

Hutson-Reinbacher
Guhle-Mailloux
Jackeye-Barron

and you still have Harris, Matheson, Engstrom, Struble on the left side. Many teams are desperate for RHD, Habs got the best one in the draft. Many mock drafts had him going to MTL at #5, I don't see it as a surprise.
