I had not noticed

...but there were a lot of people who showed up at the draft with 51 Wright Habs jerseys. I saw even one guy who was pissed and threw his off the balcony during the draft

ouf, criss de cave...


but I just realized that the jersey is actually real and was sold at an auction, the Kingston Canadiens was the previous name of the Kingston Frontenacs, which Shane Wright played for

so it's a real jersey, a team he actually played for. Unlike the "cave" who had one made before the draft and threw it away after the Habs selected Slaf.

well, it couldn't have been an "official" jersey, so it was probably 70 bucks or something on Aliexpress... still a waste of cash though lol

have you seen Dach's wrist though when he got injured..? it was pretty nasty, to the point where it makes you wonder if it would permanently affect his game.

dach's shot looked to be fully back toward the end of last season. i think it affects him on FOs tho cause he was terrible at it. he just doesn't shoot much. he did get better at it later in the season. if he learns to impose his size every shift the habs will be thrilled with the trade and i am a fan of nazar who the hawks took with the pick they came in that deal.

i personally think the hawks gave up on him too soon and if he can get out of his own head he can become the player they thought he was when drafted.

his body language just screamed frustration last season and thee word is it was rubbing some of the vets the wrong way. even though the cause of the frustration was his own performance.

People just needed to lay off the Getzlaf comps and he wouldn't be criticized as much.
