Thread: Mtl are proud to select
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>HOCKEYBOY448</b></div><div>I’m confused wasn’t Wright projected to be really damn good, like high end 1C if he hit his potential. What happened?</div></div>

He looked good when he scored 39 as a 15 yo but since then has disappointed. Just watch some of his games and youll see how of a non factor he is. He also never seems to win one on one in the OHL, so imagine in the NHL. Medias saying hes the second coming of Bergeron probably only watch him play once or twice haha. He was aweful at the WJC, aweful in his first 35 games in the OHL this year and bad in the playoffs so far. Hes really meh for a 1st OA projected player.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldHabsFan61</b></div><div>That’s a no from me. A young centre who already plays a 200 foot game is something you don’t pass up</div></div>

Cooley can play a 200 ft game too… He also fits the type of player Hughes wants to add and is way much fun to watch.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Campabee</b></div><div>The downside of Wright is being reported as ROR or RNH but you are right it is a tough call but the Habs are not in a position where they should gamble on Cooley being Mac and not Milano.</div></div>

Why is he a gamble more than Wright? Cooley has shown since the last 2 seasons that he is as elite as anyone in this class. Hes a guaranteed 60 pts C with elite skating and puck skills (which sells tickets aka Cole Caufield). The question with Cooley is wether he can become a top 10 c in the league 5 years from now.

Wright is most likely to become a 60pts 2C with not much more potential to put more pts. And his praised defensive game isnt heads above Cooleys either. But hey, most fans only look at his 39 goals scored 2 years ago (which was better than McDavid at the same age) and think MTL cant pass on that guy.

I really hope Hughes wont feel pressure to take Wright

Thread: the pool including draft
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Zuki9797</b></div><div>i think what we need is a future top 1RD as opposed to a top pair. i think romanov or guhle could be the top LD
maybe a package deal could be made to get a 1LW… heineman, smilanic, and the flames first maybe</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>A_Habs_fan</b></div><div>On a true cup contender you'd want better as a 1LD imo, Guhle or Romanov will be great 2nd pair guys</div></div>

I would try to pry another top 10 pick out of a team like PHI. They need more prospects and picks, we have them. Lets say at 6, Nemec is still there and PHI is on the clock… 22-25 OA + 33 OA + FLA first 2023 could be in the ballpark in terms of value.

Or just draft Hutson with CGYs first. Hes a LHD but hes an insane player. No doubt he could play his offside if needed
