A Look Into the Future

Created by: Nick_SUCCzuki
Team: 2023-24 Montreal Canadiens
Initial Creation Date: Nov. 19, 2023

Description
Only based off what we have currently. Obviously some guys will bring in value, but wanted to see what were working with at the moment.

I think our biggest need is STILL a game-breaking forward, and if Hughes doesnt take a forward this year idk what to do. Celebrini looks great with Hutson, so if we can keep that connection that would be ideal, but really anyone cause this team seriously lacks the offense of a cup champion.

Please dont draft any more defensemen, we're already loaded up and have a bunch of guys not making the team in this scenario. I also really like Engstrom and that new Bogdon guy, but they don't have a spot Kazakhstan's now.

I'm not sure about in goal, I really like Fowler and think he could be a solid starter, but I said the same thing about Primeau when he was in the NCAA so who really knows. I think we can keep adding goalie prospects and if were desperate enough can make a trade for an established one when were closer to contending.

Overall, I think the teams in good shape for the future and were really just missing one piece (one large, very important piece) but that could be solved this year. I think we could challenge for a wildcard next year if there are no injuries and our rookies perform well (Hutson and maybe Reinbacher), but if we dont make it, we should at least be playing meaningful games in the spring.

In terms of the "game breaking forward", in the 1-4 spots, they take one of Celebrini, Eiserman and Demidov depending where they land, pick 5 and onward, I think they take Lindstrom if he is available because he has that game breaking potential.
