HF Habs: Current Standings Thread - Do it right for Wright

[GrandmaCookie]

The way this season is going, we will finish last but will lose the lottery. We can't f***ing win anything.

A top 3 pick would still be huge for that franchise.

 

[HabsCowboysOwn]

We are on pace for 44 points.

Detroit two years ago was on pace for 45 before Covid hit. In the last two decades only Colorado's 48 point 2016-17 season comes close.

We are next level right now. Too bad Arizona is right there with us.

Too bad they're still being treated like an actual NHL team, the sooner this clown franchise disappears the better. They're useless in every sense of the word.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

I hope we sell hard. Rack up the firsts and seconds, get some good prospects and start a proper rebuild.

Chariot. Gallagher says he doesn't want to be part of a rebuild, cool, gone. Edmonson. Price. Drouin (not that anybody wants him). Savard. Toffoli. Hoffman. Perreault. Paquette. Byron. Lehkonen. Niku. Gone.

When did Gallagher say that?

I’ll be happy with Top 10 to just not lose it to the Coyotes.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Sell sell sell. Get on it. This is going so well, just need Arizona to string together some wins.

They play Florida tomorrow, so it's definitely not starting their next game. Maybe against Philadelphia on Saturday. Flyers have lost 10 in a row.

 

[Garnet76]

AZ is definitely winning the draft. Bettman needs a star in the dessert for his favourite team. How that team hasn't moved already is ridiculous!! It's an embarrassment to the NHL. Now they haven't been paying their bills of 1.3 million?

Imagine being scared to finish outside of the top 10 with how dogshit the team has been playing while Allen is doing everything else he can do make it a close game every nights .

Top 5 is inevitable.

You just never know. There’s 54 games left in the season. Price might be coming back, rejuvenate the team that eventually gets healthy. I’m going to expect the worst because we can’t have nice things in Montreal.

Price healthy doesnt matter , Allen been playing on Price regular season pace in the last 2 season and we are still losing. Also team was mostly healthy at the start of the season and we were even worse. We are actually ''better'' with the kids in the lineup.

Do not worry.

with wright and suzuki our combined center hockey IQ would be legit

 

[bobholly39]

I'm starting to think that making the playoffs this year is unlikely

Ye of little faith. We have the league right where we want em!

 

[Brownies]

I want a big rebuild, but hope Gorton manages to keep enough of something to built upon so that we are able to compete enough to not get our young guys too acustomed to losing.

If you start to not care that much when you lose and still get to return to a big house with a supermodel wife etc, developing bad habits can be inevitable.

We play the flyers soon. They probably circled the date on their calendar and marked it as end of their losing stretch

Wright is enthusiastic when asked if he got drafted by Habs:

Don't think he believes it. Unbelievable this guy.

Th worst part is that we have to finish dead last for us to have a guaranteed top 3 pick. Otherwise, if we finish second to last, we have a very good chance to draft 4th....

There's really no difference, yeah you want to be able to grab your guy but after Wright, every teams board is going to look different and truly the order of Savoie, Slafkovsky, Geekie, Nemec, Jiricek, Yurov, Cooley, and Kemell is going to be team dependent.

Hopefully with the WJC and the continuation of each of their regular seasons, the order becomes more clear in the next few months.

We'll see some movement.. just don't pay attention to the Sportsnet list.. it's a f***ing abomination.
