Ha ha, you keep dreaming. Hell, MB probably threw in the #3 pick. Why not? They'll probably just play Zadina at LD anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JGC21 Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 Pierre Lebrun on TSN just reported the Domi trade is the first domino to fall for Montreal. I predict a few more trades will happen and we’ll get our LD at the draft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If someone gets 80 points, they're among the top 25 scorers in the league which is a front-liner, not a second-liner. The Habs have two years of team control left on Galchenyuk and then he hits the open market. In six years, he hasn't come remotely close to hitting 80 points...he hasn't even hit 60 or played at a 60-point pace. No one around the league is going to view him as an 80 point player. Does he have a bit more offensive upside in him? Perhaps. Maybe he can get to 60-65 points one day. It's interesting you compare him to Nugent-Hopkins; it's actually a decent comparison. In seven years, he has failed to hit the 60 point mark and has been more of a 45-55 point player over several seasons, just like Galchenyuk. Chances are that at this point, that's what they are. I think the time has come to give up on the idea of Galchenyuk being a centre in Montreal. It's not going to happen. To be honest, I don't think a lot of teams would be viewing him as a centre considering Montreal's public restraint for trying him there despite needing centres badly. With the Habs, he's a 50-55 point winger and if someone values him higher than that, make the move now before he becomes a rental a year from now. He hasn’t reached his potential because of the bush league incompetent managemt on this team. Watch him get over 79 points next year and it wouldn’t surprise me at all if he gets 80+.

It will certainly be fascinating to see how he performs for a team that actually lets him play instead of treating him from day one as a 'problem.' I can see him being a 70-point C with defensive limitations, a major producer of offense on a weak team. Meanwhile we'd better hope Domi recovers his form of three years ago.

Chris Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 This team does need an overall and new talent for sure. They aren't even close to a playoff team . I think more deals will be made as well. I said galchenyuk, Pacs and Weber should all be moved. 1 down, 2 to go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering Scherbak is now the winger with the most raw talent and a skill cap with the highest ceiling..... He has definitely set himself as a target now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JGC21 Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 At RW we have Gallagher, Shaw, Hudon, Deslauriers and Scherbak. I agree that one of them will be traded and Scherbak seems the most likely because of his upside. No way MB moves Gallagher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
