I disagree...Mesar and Kidney had their best games of the tournament...even Farrel...yes they have work to do...but your criticism is harsh....LM was all over the ice...dominant...Struble, Reinbacher and Trudeau especially....Roy is lethal....and will fit in nicely on the Habs...maybe even ready now...we shall see in camp next

I expected more from Farrell mostly due to his age. Mesar...he was a questionable pick, seen as small, soft but skilled. He will need time to get stronger and adjust to the NA game, he's a project.
Kidney...most of the scouting people said his game would not translate to the NHL. He will need time and even with Laval, there is no guarantee he makes the team, he might end up in Trois-Rivieres early in the season until there are injuries. I am still not sold on him.
Trudeau is an interesting player, he keeps getting better. For a guy drafted in the 2nd round, I could see the Habs trading him next summer if he has a good season. Getting decent value out of a 4th round pick would be a great thing. There is a big logjam on the LHD side with Guhle, Hutson, Harris, Strubble, Jackeye and Struble. For me Harris and Trudeau are guys who could end up moving in a year or two.
Let's see how the young guys do against NHL players and AHL guys pushing for an NHL job during the main camp and preseason.

Some of these guys will be traded, we have too many LHD.
I love what I saw from Trudeau, a steady game and very few mistakes.
We don't see him in any plans but he could force his way in if he keeps improving.
