Does Mailloux play AHL next year? And I can't wait for Xhekaj either. I think we really can use a guy like that and he's not without talent. We've got some exciting prospects to watch at last. We've usually only got one or two prospects of value in Laval. Laval is gonna have a great team soon.

Why? I'm really excited about Mailloux as a hockey player. I would love to see what he could do at the AHL level and eventually in the NHL.
He's played 16 career OHL games, between covid, injuries, and the suspension he's just missed so much playing time and another year in junior would be the best thing for him.

Because he's played like 10 OHL games in his career, it's certainly far too soon to move him into the AHL even if he were eligible.
He hasn't shown the ability to play defense at the OHL level yet. To the point where we aren't sure if it's rust or another issue because the sample size is too small.

Yep. That's far too few of games. That makes sense to me. Thanks!
He's lost too much development time...he needs another year in the O.....and god willing, can play for Canada in the U20 tournament.
He can go to the AHL after next year

One more year away from the Montreal media can't hurt either.
yeah, another year in the OHL would do him wonders. No need to rush him to the big stage.

Shoulder injury and might be operated. 4 to 6 months absence if he is.....lol
Dumb pick then. Even dumber now. Remains to be seen how dumb it will be in the future. But there will be some very good players that were chosen after him....geez.

Mailloux would need 2 more years of OHL.. You don't miss that much development time and somehow be able to Mentally and Physically handle the NHL because you have high IQ.
It was Nice to see LM get those two nice wristers showing his elite level talent, But I don't think he makes the NHL or AHL anytime soon.

Good thing they got Barron. Especially if they lose the draft lottery and draft someone like Nemec, he wouldn't have a spot when you account for a probable vet signing. Even if they win and draft wright, I suspect that Hughes will want to sign a vet like Letang on the right side. Sucks if the injury really hampers his development but he's essentially a backup plan now

We drafted him for needs. Though the kid is not without talent like Tinordi was. But he was a need pick. In most lists, wasan't top 30 before the incident was known. We had other possibilities. We decided to f*** it up. And now, the NEED might be at best 3 years from being in the NHL. What will be our needs then? We don't know. Reason why needs should never be drafted.
It's not like he was a top 10 pick and we decided that as BPA we had to draft him. THAT would be another story.
Yes, he has qualities. Good skater. Good wristers. But his defensive work needs TONS of improvement. As big as the guy is...his strength needs TONS of work too. I've seen him continuously be beaten and pushed around by much smaller players. Is it strength? Is it will? The guy better not decide to retire...we'll wait for him. But it will be WAY longer than some expected to be. While we will watch guys picked in the 2nd round having more success sooner and better than him. No doubt.
He lacks inside moves or else he'd be a great Center.. A playmaker who can work into position and make a pass ( kind of like Poehlings potential ).

That's part of the reason MB was let go. The KK pick is a prime example. Hopefully Mailloux pans out. I personally don't think it's as big of a deal as maybe you do but there were definitely some intriguing prospects taken after him
Or move far away from the spotlight, go play in europe at a top team ( if they want him ) and make your NHL debut at 23-24

And here comes Barron. He was probably a target for that reason. It leaves Mailloux more time to develop (if he does)
