DD will want to go to Quebec for the money, too. Hopefully they get a team soon.

The fact is, the Habs need wingers just as much as they need centers... so, I guess, for now, it doesn't really matter if Galchenyuk is at center, or wing.

He reminds me of Trouba in Winnipeg.
All the tools are there but you just wonder if he's dedicated enough to take the next step.

Ya, Eller isn't a top 6, so that means putting DD at wing. Not ideal for him.

I'm all for trading for Drouin at this point. They need offence, in whatever form. Their "set-up" guys aren't better than their scorers, anyway.

Can't believe how Buffalo and Calgary are ruining Reinhart and Bennett playing them on the wing to start their careers!!!!


Ruined! They will never get over this!!!

Worse yet, the Habs moved McCarron to Center in the AHL...he was drafted as a RW.

He will never recover.

Habs: (frank)ing up prospects since 1993.

You would have to severely over pay for him trading within the division like that.

MB just does not draft properly so the organization needs to compensate after-the-fact.

Drafting is hard.

The one thing that bothers me with Glachenyuk, is he dangles the puck forever and when he stops (because there's too much pressure on him), he either sends it to a guy who's not in a position to do anything with it, or shoots wide at the net.

I believe he's a case of "you need to simplify your game".

You just described Eller, except he doesn't really dangles and just skates in the offensive zone and falls.
