Scherbak reminds me of a shark when he's skating around the offensive zone.
Fucale, Gregoire and Audette will play in the super series vs Russia
Will be interesting to see what the Habs do with Scherbak next year, if he's NHL, AHL or WHL bound. He looks so much like Galchenyuk, would be a ton of fun to see them on a line together.
Depending on roster turn around.. I see him being in the AHL next season, earning call ups, then starting the season after.
Don't think it will be long. Kid is super talented.
Scherbak reminds me of Marleau.
Anyone know why Reway hasn't played for 4 straight games with Sparta? Injured? Attitude problems?

If he can add some speed, strength and weight, he very well may follow Gallagher's example of being promoted after a half season in the AHL.
Love to see that. Kinda hoping for DLR also...
Moen is gone, we have players to replace him.It will be interesting to see what happens next summer as many prospects seem close to making the team (Scherbak, DLR, Andrighetto, Thomas, Hudon, Pateryn, Dietz) and a lot of the Habs players enter their final contract year (Plekanec, Parenteau, Bourque, Gilbert, Moen, Prust, Weise, Sekac).
This could be a cornerstone for the team as, if MB thinks some of the youngins are ready to jump in next season, he could decide to trade some of the players with only one year left and get something interesting in return. Or even package some of those vets with a prospect in order to get something significant as it's unlikely they'd want to bring that much youth on the team in such a short span.
Moen is gone, we have players to replace him.
Sekac is RFA so he is not part of that list.
Gilbert is going to be replaced by Pateryn/Dietz/Nygren (BTW Nygren is top d-men in AHL - short sample but he was last year!).
Bourque is getting 3.3M and is barely a third liner. Two years from now, Sherback can replace him with more skills and good size.
Weise can be resigned or replaced. Can certainly be replaced by DLR or Bournival.
Parenteau, we need to wait and see. We need skilled player to replace him but Andrighetto/Hudon/Lekhonen/Reway could very provide us with scoring ability within the next two years.
Plek and Prust are real concerns:
Plek could be traded or resigned. May be DLR can help us on a third line to replace him and other players (Galchenyuk) can raise their level.
Same with Prust. Nevins/Fournier/Crisp/McCaron: hopefully of of them will be able to replace him. I do not see us signing a 32 years old Prust at 2.5 to give us 10-15 points. I really think that two years from now, McCaron will be able to play in our fourth line.
We also have a few wildcards: Hudon is certainly one of them. He seems to adapt pretty well. Was in team Canada. Now best scorer with the Dogs for now...

McCarron and Audette have 1 assist each so far tonight.
Edit: 1G 1A for Audette
Edit: another assist for McCarron!
1G 2A so far for McCarron in the 2nd period!
Two assists for Evans.. Problem, Whitesnake?
