Quoting: KentMcNally
Are you saying that you think that it is too early to try to squeak into the playoffs next year, given that Montreal is still in the rebuild stage?
Reinbacher isnt ready
Like Josi he'll need another year at least in NLA at best
Huston is WAY closer then Reinbacher
Like Hughes said 2025 is when he expects the young RD here
Xhekaj and Mailloux are doing great in Laval as top pair.
Mailloux was struggling so bad Struble couldnt even help him find consistency
But Xhekaj has in a short period of time.
Roy , Xhekaj , Mailloux, Huston and Tuch will join the team before this year up.
Mesar and Beck as they have the last 2 years will be battling for a final roster spot
Mesar's steps forward at Center as one of the top producing OHL Centers gives great hope for Slafkovsky as well.
Slaf before this past month had his best games beside Dach and Mesar at Center.
There's so many pieces that are going to need roster sports that half the Pending UFA's you kept this year or the ones next year are in their way.
Best to sell off this year and next year if at the TDL we've had the kids step up then take the assets we gathered from selling and invest them in something we need.
Tuch/Hutsons Chemistry is really flying under the radar in MTL because most fans dont pay for NCAA
But i can tell you his net front style creates a lot of Chaos that Hutson Capitalizes on regularly.
