You didn't answer the initial question in my post, nor did you provide any argument for what you are claiming.The Habs have consistently rushed players under every management and coaching staff while at the same time giving these players garbage linemates etc...
I don't think Timmins is great I just think development is a much bigger issue. Even a blind monkey would do a better job then Timmins if drafting is the inherent issue lol.
It is either:
These alleged developmental issues have somehow persisted for nearly 2 decades despite multiple regime, GM, coaching, ownership, and other staff changes for both the Habs and their minor league affiliates.
or
A particular individual and his staff who has been either directly responsible or heavily involved in drafting and scouting since 2003 is bad at his job and as a result, the Habs have been worse at drafting talent since he arrived.
Occam's Razor tells us what is overwhelmingly likely to be the answer.
The fact that several of the teams most important players were drafted by other teams and developed into the players they are now just fine in MTL further indicates that the problem has been drafting.
Suzuki
Petry
Danault
All drafted by other teams, all developed into what they are now by the Habs.
