Is he a small dude? Could they used him with Caufield and Suzuki to see what haappens there?


I think thats Monahan spot but he needs to stay healthy and might be flipped at the TDL anyway

But I like that they have options up front

agree on Dach

having options throughout the lineup is definitely a good thing, if not players tend to take things for granted and don't push as hard as they could.

the deal is good if Newhook improves and eventually becomes a legit top6 player.

well even if Newhook becomes a solid 3rd line center who can be moved up when needed, that's still a good deal for the habs... not sure what that has to do with Dubois though lol.

nothing, but you said they were now better at center.
if Newhook remains a #3C it's basically a trade like Dvroak 2.0

I was talking about how the kings were looking good at C right now...

and no, Newhook would be a younger, cheaper and better version of Dvorak.

anyway, they needed a translator but Hughes said he liked Michkov's answers and body language, and that he sounded mature and intelligent, for what it's worth...

You know they say say Michkov is closer yo Bedard than Fantilli. If the Habs take him, there are going to be a ton of people screaming bloody hell because he won't be with the Habs for three years. Fast forward three years, and if Michkov meets expectations, those exact same fans will be screaming bloody hell because they did not take him.

Jagr was drafted 5th basically for the same reasons, because teams before that felt too unsure about his situation... either way I highly doubt I'll be mad about the habs' pick, even if it isn't Michkov it doesn't mean it won't be a good player.

Oh I agree. Just saying it's hard to please people in markets like Toronto and Montreal. It is both funny and infuriating at the same time.

un autre bon point, Gilles! tout à fait!

pour RHP je crois qu'il est RFA le premier juillet, mais je ne pense pas que ce soit un problème so ils gèrent les autres dossiers pour le moment

quite possible, we often read that after Bedard it's all over the place for the top5
