Habs have an LD problem

Created by: Habs4ever
Team: 2021-22 Montreal Canadiens
Initial Creation Date: Mar. 27, 2021
Published: Mar. 27, 2021
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
I did not put them in order, nor did I focus on salary amount nor term, but the Habs have a very good problem on their hands with over a dozen LD's in the organization. I did not count Bisson that plays a solid board game in Laval.

Finally, having watched all Laval games this year, Otto Leskinen reminds me of Andrei Markov. Not saying they will have similar careers, but his passing is really good. His poise and vision on the PP makes for a lethal man advantage.

So do Habs really need to trade for an LD? but so many have said Ekholm, then negotiate Nashville taking 1 to 3 of Habs LD's along with draft picks.

Bisson was signed by Laval out of the ECHL. He has played for Bouchard in the past at the Junior level. He has played 11 games so far for Laval. He has looked really good. He plays a very solid board game. Hard to pass by him. He has size and had one good fight as well.

Lauughable....Preds say NO. Only deal would have to include Romanov, KK, and/or 1st/2d rd picks.

it says Bisson on the back of his jersey. So I just went by that. But I did notice he has two last names. It was a trend that is dying off. Anyways, yes that guy!

Then upgrade to a 1st, with some good LD prospects. But KK, Suzuki, Romanov are going nowhere.

I do not know much about Struble. All I was saying is Habs have a ton of LD's and teams could take 1 to 3 of their LD prospects. I am sure Habs have them in a depth chart, so out of the 12 LD's, make 6 of them available and tell the team to pick 2 off their list. Something like that!
