I remember making a poll on the main boards if they would rather have McCarron or the 15th overall pick. It was dead even. I don't even think we get a 5th now.

It's ok, Timmins once drafted McDonagh, Pacioretty and Subban in the same year.

That's a draft for the ages. The Habs best draft since 1987, and it needs to be acknowledged. The concerning thing is that the prospect pool has pretty much been in decline since. Granted, the Habs haven't had alot of high picks in recent years, but it needs to be better.

I'd still give him the last 10 games, but barring a miracle, I'd cut ties this summer in a trade or not qualifying him.

This guy is useless. Saw it the first game he played in the NHL. Thought maybe he could survive in a 4th line role but he can’t even do that. Bust. Big bust.

poeling has proved nothing
another in the mcarron line...
big and dominated in minors based on size

his size means **** now

bust # 2

McCarron had trouble producing in Junior and in the AHL. I don't see them as similar at all.

Pretty much the reason the Habs lost tonight.

I wish other teams made bad draft picks sometimes too

Just like McDonagh was another David Fischer. They're both defencemen from Minnesota, so clearly when McDonagh wasn't putting up big numbers, he must be the same as David Fischer.

His skating is the problem, he is not overly talented but with his size he could be a wrecking ball if he could keep up.

He kept trying to force big hits and crush people instead of letting the game come to him... It was an awful awful game for him. He needs to play much much smarter... then his skating won't be as big an issue.

No one cares

I just find that he is late on hits due to his speed and it was not just tonight, it's something I have seen from him since he got here.
