qwijjibo Posted July 31 Author Share Posted July 31 (edited) Solid deal for a 22 year old D who's shown top pairing potential. This deal buys 2 years of UFA (ends when he's 29) Edited July 31 by qwijjibo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caboose Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 Ugly contract. This edition of the Habs has continuously overpaid for mid talent. Passing on Buium, Dickinson, because you have Guhle and Hutson is a real head scratcher. Wouldn't expect either of these players to be in the top 4 of any legitimate contender.

Taking Demidov was a head scrsther? If you say so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He hits and blocks lots of shots too. Only knock is he doesn't play special teams. Fair value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yeah It's good value now and could look amazing in pretty short order 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michov had a lot of red flags. Reinbacher is a big right had shot D with a lot of upside. A bit early to declare it a huge blunder. Plus there are credible reports that Michkov was only willing to sign with a handful of teams. But sure. Act like you're a successful NHL GM that has all the pertinent information Also. You said they passed on Buium and Dickenson because of Guhle and Hutson. Which clearly isn't the case. They took Demidov with that pick. That's generally considered a huge win. So way to move the goalposts Edited July 31 by qwijjibo 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol Demidov was the consensus pick at 5 and his potential alone is greater than Buium's and Dickinson's put together. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain insano Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 Montreals fan base has pumped up this guy harder than Toronto pumped up nick robertson, he’s “okay” probably going to be a bottom pair on any contender crazy to think he got more than zadorov Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So way to move the goalposts I agree reinbacher was a huge reach, don’t care if Michkov isn’t going to play for my franchise you can use his potential generational talent as a trade chip to bring in a much lower risk and higher ceiling than reinbacher, Montreals rebuild seems like a long list of b prospects, I’m not overly impressed with what they have done, (I don’t dislike the Canadiens just giving my 2 cents on their underwhelming rebuild) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’ll be balanced and do well - so it’s not necessarily a knock either 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think he's a finished product? Also.

Master Mind Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 Not a big fan of this deal or Faber. AAV is too high for their limited experience. Could be good in the final years of the deals if they exceed expectations and/or cap goes up significantly, but I'd have thought bridge deals would be the best route to take. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don’t like how they are handing out contracts to these young young players. What ever happened to putting in the time and work? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
