hey, I'm thinking if everyone is happy with the move, it must be good, right?

I'm just not excited at all right now with this...

Oh yeah it's good but not exciting, it's like sex with your wife.

Monahan a été échangé en retour d’un choix de premier tour au repêchage de 2024 ainsi qu’un choix de troisième tour conditionnel en 2027. Dans ce dernier cas, la condition à respecter serait que les Jets remportent la Coupe Stanley dès cette saison.

I'd rather they get kicked out in 4 in the 1st round, better 1st round pick position

I guess getting a 3rd rounder if the jets win the cup is better than getting a slap in the face...

yeah, at this point I hope they do take the Rocket's success into consideration, the farm team making the playoffs is kind of important imho.

Learning how to win, even at the AHL level, is important.

I hope they just waiver wire pick up a guy or two instead.

Maybe HuGo have a plan.

And maybe that plan is another top 5 pick.

shooting the Laval team in the foot just to keep the habs slightly better would be just silly.

or thats just the result of doing the right thing and moving monahan for a first round pick

but go on guys


I told you you would have to worry about much more than a 4th line centre soon enough and here we are

The only ''plan'' I can see now is Newhook at C as soon as he comes back. But they knew the playoffs were out of reach and they still have to focus on the rebuild.

its not Hughes fault if Newhook. Dvorak and Dach all got hurt this season. May I remind you that most fans did not even want Monahan to come back here to begin with? I was one of the few before he signed back last summer. Otherwise it was once again the play the kids story.

They will look at their centre line in the off season. But mtl is deeper at C that they have been in years (or so they were with Monahan). Injuries just killed it.

Very smart management of assets to get another first rounder for middle of the road centre with an extensive injury history.
The Habs are doing the right thing and playing the long game. Very impressive.

Nathan Legaré just had green light to come back, and Sean Farrell is getting close to a return.

I wonder if the Habs would sign Brendan Gignac to an NHL contract and bring him up...that would make for a cool story.

- stinger67


is Gignac an important piece though for the Rocket, or with the players you mentioned he's more of a healthy scratch?

ouin pt

je comprends les inquiétudes au niveau du reste de la saison et la ligne du centre, ça risque d'être pénible en effet, mais il fallait faire ce qu'il fallait faire. Je m'attends à un échange simliaire cet été avec ce choix de fin de première ronde à ce qu'on a vu les deux années avant. Mais faudra voir aussi la masse salariale pis toute.
