Yeah, Mysak is really good. His brother Lic is draft eligible next year too (a D). Maybe Montreal can grab the pair of them


But I thought Lic was draft eligible this year 🤔

Mysak played a whole year against Shane Wright, says he would take Slafkovsky!


I mean....you can only be an idiot to say your GM picked the wrong player

Zellweger has a ton of skill. But man, he has to clean up the turnovers.

Cormier has shown that he’s their best defensemen, that’s no knock on Zellweger, but Cormier has been playing unreal.

Haven't watched the first 2 periods tonight, but I noticed he was a giveaway machine in game 1

Gaucher and Desnoyers are absolutely disgusting.

Hopefully the end of his career isn’t the same as Jamie Benn…

Jamie Benn is such a weird player. He went from a perfect forward who was good at pretty much everything, was a top 5 player in the league, won the Art Ross to one of the worst contracts in the NHL, slow af, pretty bad defensively, and a pest to play against.

Don’t know what happened.

Honestly if Benn was making 3-4 Million people would still rate him as a decent player, he's just massively overpaid

Now THAT looked more like the Team Canada that was expected-I know it's Slovakia, but still, wow what a game. Holy smokes McTavish. Bedard, Roy and Othmann were also really good. They need to clean up the turnovers a bit, but other than that, if they keep playing like this, look out.

Now let's see the USA crush Switzerland.

Well tbf, I had Roy as a 3rd rounder in his draft year and so far, he’s still been able to look like the guy I projected him to be, a good 3rd liner, maybe able to become a middle 6 guy, we can wait and see but I don’t think there are too many rational Habs fans who overhype him

Personally, with what he has shown, I agree he is a steal. I think even if he tops out as a bottom six forward, I’d still call that a success

Roy was a steal of a pick for being in 5th round tho. Guy looks like he’ll be pro.

Speaking of steals I’m pumped to see what Brandon Coe truly is; this is the year we find out.

I agree he was a steal. Potential top 6 forward is a stretch for any late round pick. Still think even if he just becomes a third liner that’s super successful for the fifth round
