Can he play AHL next season?
What is exactly the rule?(european players in the CHL)
Yes he can.
The rule is that any player drafted out of the CHL (like Scherbak) must be at least 20 years old by Dec 31st.
Is he a long term solution for a top line RW?
I like him and he looked good in pre-season but are he and McCarron guys who can really compliment a Pacioretty-Galchenyuk top line in the future? I realize these guys have different skill sets but I'm genuinely curious if they can be the missing link.
Sherbak seems to have all the tools and talents to become a 1st line winger someday. While McCarron will be more of a complimentary player or 3rd liner in the Bickell mold.Is he a long term solution for a top line RW?

If you want, you can dream of a Galchenyuk-McCarron-Sherback line. It's a stretch, but it's not totally out of the picture long term. Hard to beat that in term of size and skills.
Who does max play with? Plekanec and? Gallagher?

I think Scherbak & JDLR make it out of camp... I'm not sure if I see DD with us unless he's at 3LW...
Pacioretty-Galchenyuk-Scherbak
Sekac-Plekanec-Gallagher
Desharnais-Eller-JDLR
Bournival-Prust-Weise
(Parenteau?)
Best case scenario is DD & PAP are moved, Andrighetto comes up, Sekac down to 3LW & Andrighetto with 14-11.
Just too much potential to give up on with how good Galchenyuk-Scherbak looked in camp, immidiate chemistry, both have great work ethics & talent.

Unless DLR has a breakthrough offensively I dont see him in mtl or not on top 9 ... As for sherbak he doesnt exactly take over games in WHL this year he kinda loafs around and has flashes. I think we will probably see him play a year in AHL unless he comes into camp in beast mode
DD and some other guy
I think him being better than expected might lead to Habs drafting a D for 2015. If he pans out as top 6 they're set.
Desharnais
I doubt it. Too much AKitis that needs to be removed. My guess is a 1 1/2 years in the AHL.
