He was ranked around 12th in his draft year.

Bergevin reached because he wanted a centre.

That's the whole story.

He's not a terrible player.

Just not one that was supposed to be drafted this early.

While we all enjoy the benefit of hindsight, it clearly shows that the experts missed on him with their rankings. KK isn't a terrible player, but he also isn't what the projections suggested. Middle six player.....

I don't know, I'm trying to think of current star players who spent some time in the AHL.

Jason Robertson spent a season there.

So did Moritz Seider.

Kucherov.

I'm sure a few great goaltenders did.

It's probably not that black or white.

The AHL is populated with players that believe the way up to NHL is by the big hit. Smoking the #1 overall will be a prize far too many will seek.

Laval is a poop show......

Keep Slav with the Habs, where you can teach him, and help him best. He will be fine...

Yup.

In what arena?

I think they have a pretty good fan following in Laval, it's just they don't have any players given to them by the organisations. Last year they were good because they had a bunch of carreer AHLer but they all left this summer for some reason.

Have you heard of the Arena Michel-Normandin?

With lockerooms smaller than my bedroom and a barely working heating system?

Yeah.

They could go there.

Where he should be. That whole draft class lost development time and they all could use it.
