Playoffs are the Expectations
Just to be clear Marchessault is not from Montréal, he is from Québec city. He was born, grew up and even played Q there until he was 21. I say all this because I find too many people just assume that if a player is from the province of Québec that they will automatically be willing to live and play in Montréal which I’m sorry to tell everyone, is not the case. I’m not saying he won’t sign with the Habs just that I don’t see Montreal having the inside track due to location.

I guess you haven’t noticed but he's already reached that top D spot. I feel some fans have turned on Guhle a bit lately but it’s completely unwarranted. Sure he makes some mistakes but the kid is only 22 playing top pairing on a rebuilding team. Imagine what he’ll look like at 25 when this team is ready to contend.

Yes I want to play Reinbacher in Montreal next year provided he keeps playing how he played this weekend. He was amazing 😍.
Mailloux & Reinbacher should be our only 2 rookies next season.
I love the size and skill if this defence core and I love our top 6.
This solves almost all of our problems.
Edit: Just to clarify. Draisaitl is hitting 100-120 points per season. That's a 60-80 point improvement on Dach's best production to date.</div></div>
Still trying to get over you calling Suzy a weak top line center, your Habs fan membership should be revoked for that comment.

whats missing 2 yrs from now
I know you’re trying to keep righties on the right but Xhekaj will be a fixture on the blue line for years to come while Barron is very quickly running out of road in Montreal. Also Matheson is more than a bottom pairing dman so he’ll get traded before anything like this happens…
On offense Newhook is more suited to the wing so I’d switch him and Dach and unless Anderson drastically steps up his game we’ll definitely need more scoring in the middle 6.
Overall if Hughes does nothing(which I highly doubt he will)this team is fighting for a wild card spot in a couple years. If he somehow adds serious secondary scoring then this team could be a threat in 3 years.

Why buyout Armia? He’s had a resurgence this season and only a year left on his contract with almost 15 mill left in team cap space.

Quite in line with what Hughes payed to get Newhook. And Kakko is better than 8 goals, just having a rough season, at least he’s solid defensively even when he’s not scoring.

Vlasic buyout would be heavy for the first couple seasons but Habs have the cap then it’s completely manageable for the following couple of seasons.
Kakko contract is actually quite in line with the Dach and Newhook deals so I don’t see how that is unreasonable while yeah that’s a lot to give Xhekaj but I believe in his potential so I don’t think it’s a bad investment to get him locked up for his entire prime.

Actually it’s been 17 games and his first two games back he took some bad penalties(3 minors) got scratched a few times and has only gotten two minors since drawing back in 15 games ago. Either way the point I’m making is he is coachable and he’ll be just fine.

Almost as stupid as thinking Crosby would go to Montreal</div></div>
It’s quite simple actually, Montreal has too many left handed dmen to give them all playing time so it makes sense to deal him even if he is promising, young and on a decent contract…while Calgary on the other hand has space for him making a trade mutually beneficial. And I never said Crosby would go to the Habs, I actually quite clearly stated I didn’t think he’d play anywhere else than Pittsburg.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GuyGuyGuy</b></div><div>Barron can easily wake up. I think his Laval experience will do just that. If it happen, he has one of the best potential on this team. We shouldn’t trade him away.
Xhekaj will always take bad penalties, that’s his style of play. We will have to deal with it or trade him</div></div>
Well since Xhekaj has been called back up he’s played 15 games, only taking 2 minors and has been in two fights(which I don’t count since they don’t leave the team shorthanded and he did it to stand up for his teammates). Sounds to me like he’s not taking bad penalties at present almost as if he’s improving that aspect of his game.🤔

Why not? A 2nd has what like a 1 in 3 chance of playing a 100 games in the NHL while Harris has already played 115, is still young and on a decent contract. If they could use him in the lineup it’d actually be statistically pretty stupid to not do that deal.

Okay a few problems here…
First with the comments, at 38 I’m sure Crosby would be fine with playing 2c especially to a guy like Suzy. He’s in the twilight of his career, still producing and mentoring but passing the torch to a legitimate top center in the league.
Secondly, if Crosby did choose to sign with Montreal why do you think he would demand more than he’s ever made before?
And lastly again with the comments, in 2025-26 Montreal will definitely be looking to compete. Hughes has a plan and I get the vibe the season after next is when sees the last phase of this rebuild.
Side note:I’m not sure Crosby will ever play pro anywhere but Pittsburg, but then again Pitty did hire Dubas…

Extremely lazy doesn’t bode well for Barron’s long pro career and as I’ve mentioned in my last post Xhekaj has cleaned up those aspects of his game recently. Regardless we’re at an impasse, I guess we’ll just agree to disagree.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GuyGuyGuy</b></div><div>Xhekaj has higher trade value than his actual worth on the ice. Trade him for a big return. Barron shouldn’t be traded under any circumstances, if he wakes up, he could be better than Reinbacher, Mailloux and even Guhle</div></div>
Barron’s decision making is too slow for the NHL at times and it shows.
I don’t how many games you’ve watched lately but Xhekaj looks legitimately like a top 4. He’s big, mobile and has a wicked shot. The digs against him before were his decision making in his own zone and engaging physically even when it put him out of position but he has seemed to clean up those aspects this season and he looks great.
Progression is super important when it comes to young players. Barron still has the same issues he did since he was drafted in the first round while Xhekaj has only exponentially gotten better since going undrafted, I’d wager on Xhekaj in this situation.
