HF Habs: Out of Town Thread: 2024 Playoff Edition

[KevSkillz4]

Won't know til we see what teams make final four.

But Jets don't make final four, so no 28-32, right?

 

[David Suzuki]

Brunette looks like he just woke up and is frantically looking for his coffee because he's late for work

Me in 6.5 hours ffs

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Too early to know but fans in here typically include him in most of their fake trades.

We need to trade him while he still has "upside" and before other teams pro-scouts realize he has no IQ.

He's the typical good tools, no toolbox player.

 

[Apoplectic Habs Fan]

Winnpeg needs to realize it wasnt just Wheeler and DouchBois that were the problem.

No show Nick Ehlers and Shitfully are the Marner and Tavares of the Jets

 

[HuGo Sham]

NHL playoffs continue to be so f***ing whacked. Jets owned Avs all year. This series they looked slow and Hellebyuck couldn’t bail them out, giving up 5+ goals a game.
At least jets have some young pieces to keep retooling but man, they need to fix the speed on their D. Maybe something around struble, Harris, Barron - all good skaters for something around a young forward like Barlow ?

Winnpeg needs to realize it wasnt just Wheeler and DouchBois that were the problem.

Yeah Scheifele was a full on disappointment in this series

He had a few good games in Laval and some posters jumped on that to seek out revenge on those who dismissed him. But then, he fell right back to earth.

What were our scouts thinking when they greenlighted the deal -- I'm assuming Hughes wouldn't have moved without them.

What's the highest it could be given everything goes right?

 

[MarkovsKnee]

But Jets don't make final four, so no 28-32, right?

Yes, we can't draft 29-32 with their elimination. We can't pick #28 either because one of Carolina and NYR are making the final four and one is being eliminated. Both those teams finished ahead of Winnipeg, so will pick behind the Jets.

Currently, looking at #27. If Dallas gets eliminated, it drops to #26.

 

[The Real Timo]

I think Hellybuck should do an honourable thing and give his vezina nomination back

 

[HuGo Sham]

And now preds go up up 2-1 with 7 mins left

 

[MarkovsKnee]

2-1 Nashville. Carrier.

Ok thanks! Not bad at all. 26 or 27, we can draft a good potential at this range or move up or down. Or in package.

We also don’t get that 2027 3rd rounder anymore

So 26 is the best Habs can get?

Is that lowest it can go?

 

[Non Player Canadiens]

I think Hellybuck should do an honourable thing and give his vezina nomination back

i imagine the voters will do that for him

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Is that lowest it can go?

No, lowest it can go is #24. But, no division leaders (Florida, Dallas, Vancouver & NYR) can make the final four for that to happen.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

So 26 is the best Habs can get?

No, #24. But all of Vancouver, Dallas, Florida & NYR need to be eliminated before final four for that to happen.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Winnipeg was never going to win the Stanley Cup, so we weren't getting it anyway.

 

[Mrb1p]

We can pretty much say at very least it's 25th. No way Florida doesn't do the conference finals.

 

[HuGo Sham]

This is an impressive bounce back W by Nashville after a soul crushing choke job in game 4.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

He had a few good games in Laval and some posters jumped on that to seek out revenge on those who dismissed him. But then, he fell right back to earth.

What were our scouts thinking when they greenlighted the deal -- I'm assuming Hughes wouldn't have moved without them.

I mean he is skilled, has a good shot, good size & speed. He looks good. But, he can't process the game fast enough at NHL level.

 

[The Real Timo]

Well... at least Avs and Preds won. f*** the bruins.

 

[Mrb1p]

Lets go Smashville

 

[Non Player Canadiens]

good night of hockey all in all 4 elimination games, 2 teams crumble, 2 teams live to fight another day with their backs against the wall.
