Would be 2nd top5 pick in 7 years; Galchenyuk and this year. Sergachev was 9th ov.
But I disagree with the rest. Had we simply KEPT our players instead of trading them away and signed the players we needed to sign. Drafted one of Debrincat/Girard with the two 2nds instead of giving them away for Shaw. This is what it would look like right now.
Pacioretty - X - Radulov
Debrincat - Galchenyuk - Scherbak
Lehkonen - Danault - Gallagher
Markov - Subban
Sergachev - Petry
Mete - X
And that's not even with a big deadline trade or UFA signing.
Might not be contender caliber yet but it's damn near close. We'd have five legitimate top 6 guys, a #1 franchise PMD and a left side that can actually move the puck.
There's already a WORLD of difference between that and the circus show we iced to start the year.
Drouin is a 3rd overall. Even if we didn't draft him, he's still a 3rd overall pick from 2013
As for the rest... management crap the bed big time.....but thinking that drafting a tons of top 10 pick would change anything for the Habs is dreaming also. There's tons of example that doesn't work. You pretty much have to win the lottery to make it work.
