Team: 2023-24 Montreal Canadiens

Initial Creation Date: Dec. 13, 2023

Published: Dec. 13, 2023

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

To preface this roster is highly dependent on Dach continuing to develop and staying healthy after this season. Otherwise this team will need to find another true 1C. I also have them picking Konsta Helenius somewhere between pick 4-7 (They’ll likely draft somewhere in that range), as I see him as a very dynamic forward who can take over a shift. In terms of offense the main need for this team is a 2nd finisher to make that top 9 truly dangerous. In terms of defense I think we’ll need another top 4 defense acquired via trade or draft. If they don’t pick Helenius I wouldn’t mind Leshunov or Parekh for that spot. I also see Struble, Engstrom, Konyushkov, and Xhekaj fighting for the 5-7 defensive spots. To conclude, the goaltending is likely to be a mix of Fowler, Dobes, and Monty. Fowler has the best chance to become a legit #1 goalie

None are on this team long term. All gone in some fashion weather it’s trade, contract expiring, etc.

Prioritize bringing in a 2nd liner finisher and a 2nd pair RD. Package those prospects along side picks and vets.

Additional Details:

All good prospects that I could see making an nhl team in some capacity, just further down the depth cart then guys I currently have on the roster.

Davidson & Simoneau will never be regular NHLers …
O.Kapanen has more chance to be MTL 4th line center
A 4th line of Tuch-Kapanen-Heineman would be sick
Roy-Beck-Heineman 3rd line
I like that top 6

Don’t count out Simoneau. The same thing were said about Gally and RHP once upon a time.

I would rather have a big boy as our future 4LW personally. Emil Heineman/Luke Tuch/Florian Xhekaj would fit de mold, tho Heineman has more upside than the other two

I wouldn't classify RHP as a regular NHLer yet. 25 years old, 50 games on an injury riddled rebuilder.
