Maybe its just me but his attitude and demeanor from what I saw makes me think of Gallagher. And that is the highest of compliments. Anyone with an attitude like Gallagher will thrive and be adored in Montreal. Not saying he's going to be the next big thing, but if he keeps improving and is as good as people say I think he could really be a winner here. I can't say enough good things about how much I value that attitude Gally brings while still being competitive beyond compare.
Love it, and love the pick at 36. It's really exciting to have a young goalie prospect to get behind again and see how his career develops when he isn't rushed or mishandled like I feel Carey was a bit. I think this organization and front office gets it now in terms of taking care of players and giving them what they need to succeed. I feel very confident in that and that's a real boon for us that will probably show over time. Can't underestimate the mental game anymore and the Habs are not.
More than anything though I hope Price kills it next year and we can all get behind that! Still love him, but love having a potential replacement in the pipeline too, doesn't make Carey's play the end all and be all of our future in nets perhaps. But I do not look forward to the goalie controversy, god its bad enough as it is, I've ignored so many Price threads hah. So sick of the debate when he is all we have and is still performing well, just not as well as I think he can. I think he has another level to reach and stay at consistently.
