The 91 of Ryans

Right. I call BS. You wanna roll up your sleeves and really dig in on this issue. But you also know that this is suspension worthy talk. So you create a sock account that you're not afraid to lose. That's my theory anyway. I actually hold a lot of the same values as you I think . It's a shame you won't use your real username to stand by what your saying. We all hide our identity with goofy usernames. Being clear on an issue is not the same as being clear about who you are IRL.

Right. The list was so underwhelming, I already forgot about it

I think Carlson gets 8 x 7 if he leaves or 7 x 8 if he stays. Green will get 5 x 2 from Holland. Yeah.

So is this really "Scouten" worthy? Or his he riding the fumes of a couple of good drafts? And if so, how does he get a free pass when Holland is ZORG WORST EVA TIRE KICKA!!

For now

Cool story. File under "D'uhhhh" How bout this instead. Name me one decent prospect Andersson has had a hand in drafting recently. All the good ones (and 2nd round gems like Bertuzzi) have been based on the work of other scouts. Hronek? Was that Hakan? Maybe this Lindstrom kid pans out.

What has Hakan done for this org. lately?

Didn't Bylsma win a cup as head coach in Pittsburgh??? First Kovalchuk, now this? THAT"S IT!! Holland is clearly trying to win it all this year.

Yeahhhhhh. Kovy ain't coming here. I doubt Detroit is truly interested. But man, you guys have soft spines. You've been imagining and strategizing your way through a full rebuild on the back of all of the things Holland has said about 2-3 year plan/accumulating draft picks/3-5 young players making the team, etc. along with Blashill's statements about the roster being wide open. And rightfully so I think. Then one stupid little tweet from Dreger and that's all out the door and now Holland's trying to win the cup this year or something and nothing ever changes? Pleez

Bylsma and Hunter Get er done Kenny!!

Bouchard just seems like such a boooring pick.

No deal then!

Witkowski, Abdlekader, and McKee for Skinner and Hanafin

Mike Green And that man was amazing for Washington on this Stanley Cup run.

Aye

Thanks for this. I just can't see a team giving up a 7th overall pick for four second rounders. I'd be all over that though if it was a thing.

Yes they would cuz he'd still be taking a roster spot that could be used by Hicketts or someone else who is gonna be awesome because they're not not awesome yet.

Did he also bread a family of tubbies too though? How fat are Matt and Brady going to be when they’re 2-3 years into their 8 year deals?

Whose dumb idea was it to have two days off between every game except 2 and 3? If this was the world series you'd only need 2 starting pitchers.

I'm not so sure it would be that steep. Why should it be? The Habs finished 2 pts lower than the Wings. Mantha? No, f*** that. But I'm not sure the ask would be that astronomical. What has me thinking this is that I believe the talk of Kenny moving up is based on something real and he would never do it for an astronomical price because he's Holland. What if the Habs want Kotkaniemi as that article suggests? Do they dare take him at 3? What if they could get him at six along with an extra 1st (Vegas') and AA. Anyway, it's all just talk. If I'm Bergevin, I'm staying put at 3. Just like I'm staying put at 6 if I'm Holland.

My order of preference at 6 1. Dobson 2. Hughes 3. Whalstrom 4. Kotkaniemi 5. Bouchard OR Trade up and get Zadina I think the Habs would be OK sliding back to 6th where they'd be more comfortable taking Kotkaniemi Top Center Kotkaniemi Poses a Dilemma For The Habs
