They will be better, but is that the answer for the Habs? Price playing great will hurt their draft standings. They need to concentrate on a rebuild.
As I've already posted before with Kotkaniemi/Suzuki added to the prospect pool there is very little need for the Habs to tank some more. Honestly, nobody wants to watch a loser for 3-4 seasons, and for some teams (EDM, BUF, FLA, ARZ, NYI) it hasn't been the answer at all.
A lot of Habs fans said last summer that the roster wasn't as bad as people thought. Honestly when you have Weber and Price, you can't really tank. And Montreal has a lot of pieces that should do well in the future.
Kotkaniemi, Suzuki, Poehling, Mete and Juulsen are all trending up, and we have plenty of other roster players and prospects doing great. If Weber and Price can play well for a couple more years and Kotkaniemi becomes a 1C, the Habs will be highly competitive.
Also I do not expect them to make the playoffs this season, which means you can add potentially a top-10 prospect from the 2019 draft to our team. Which, in a sense, would complete the rebuild.
