I'll have to check his resume on Linkedin but I do believe he played before that.

sure, but give him some help! plenty of vet headcoaches are looking for work.
Burrows is green, Robidas is also a rookie... that's not really serious.

many said Hughes is unexperienced as a GM, but he has Gorton by his side to guide him.
so it's good for the GM but not for the headcoach?

I think we will see some changes this summer to the coaching staff around MSTL

Gorton is president it's not the same. They didn't hire Bob Gainey as assitant-GM to Hughes.

tu joues sur les mots Freddo.
Gorton is VP, not President. and it doesn't change the fact that Hughes has a guy on who he can rely. a guy who did the job of GM before.
MSL doesn't.

Habs have 11 draft picks already for this coming draft. All their picks + florida 1st, Pitts and Vegas 4th, CGY 5th.

They should be able to grab a few more before this TDL.

might see first round picks in 2024 though. Habs only have 8 picks in 2024, they traded their 2nd in the Dvorak trade but acquired Colorado 2nd in the Lehkonen trade and they have EDM 7th round pick (Kulak trade)

then there is the Monahan 1st round pick from CGY

Here are the conditions associated with the first-round selection acquired by Montreal:
1. In the event Calgary’s own 2024 first (1st) round choice is selection 20-32 (inclusive) (following the determination of the 2024 NHL Draft lottery results), then Montreal shall have the option, exercisable until 48 hours prior to the start of the 2024 NHL draft, to exchange the conditional 2025 or 2026 first round choice to become Calgary’s own 2024 first (1st) round choice); or,
If Florida’s 2025 First (1st) Round Choice Transfers to Calgary (pursuant to the conditions on an earlier trade)
2. In the event the conditions to trigger Montreal’s option as noted in #1 above does not occur, or Montreal declines to exercise this option, the following conditions shall prevail:
A) If both Calgary’s own 2025 first (1st) round choice and Florida’s 2025 first (1st) round choice (previously acquired by Calgary) are not in the top-10 selections of the 2025 NHL Draft (following the determination of the 2025 NHL Draft lottery results), then Montreal shall receive the earlier of the two (2) stated choices; or,
B) If Calgary’s own 2025 first (1st) round choice is a top-10 selection and Florida’s 2025 first round selection (previously acquired by Calgary) is outside of the top-10 selections (following the determination of the 2025 NHL Draft lottery results), Montreal shall receive Florida’s 2025 first (1st) round choice).
If Florida’s 2025 First Round Choice DOES NOT Transfer to Calgary (pursuant to the conditions on an earlier trade)
3. In the event the conditions to trigger Montreal’s option as noted in #1 above does not occur, or Montreal declines to exercise this option, the following conditions shall prevail:
A. If Calgary’s own 2025 first (1st) round choice is not in the top-10 selections of the 2025 NHL Draft (following the determination of the 2025 NHL Draft lottery results), Montreal shall receive Calgary’s own 2025 first (1st) round choice, and additionally,
1) If Florida’s own 2025 first (1st) round choice is not in the top-10 selections of the 2025 NHL Draft (following the determination of the 2025 NHL Draft lottery results); and,
2) Florida’s 2025 first (1st) round choice has been transferred to another NHL Club; and,
3) Florida’s 2025 first round draft position is better than Calgary’s 2025 first round draft position; then Calgary will transfer their own 2025 fourth round choice to Montreal.
B. If Calgary’s own 2025 first (1st) round choice is a top-10 selection (following the determination of the 2025 NHL Draft lottery results), Montreal shall receive Calgary’s 2025 first (1st) round choice, subject to the following condition below:
1) In the event Calgary’s 2025 first (1st) round choice is the first (1st) selection overall in the 2025 NHL Draft (following the determination of the 2025 NHL Draft lottery results), Calgary will retain its own 2025 first (1st) round choice and Montreal shall instead receive Calgary’s own 2025 third (3rd) round choice and a conditional 2026 first (1st) round choice. Montreal shall receive the better of Calgary’s 2026 first (1st) round choice or Florida’s 2026 first (1st) round choice (following the determination of the 2026 NHL Draft lottery results) (previously conditionally acquired by Calgary).

I'm sure Bob Hartley would tell the defense not be rookies and Jake Allen to be a number one goalie.

then there is the Monahan 1st round pick from CGY

Really curious to see how much Michkov will fall.

And that Will Smith guy is always highly ranked but I know nothing about him.

The Czech goaltender from last world junior is available in this draft.

Projected in the 2nd round... might be an interesting choice for a goalie of the future.

with a draft that deep he could fall a good 15-20 ranks imo.
