If I had to chose between trading Domi for a big skilled winger or a LD, I'd go for the winger. It might sound crazy but I just feel like Romanov will be good for the Habs and Kulak again showed he can play in a top 6 during these playoffs. The Dcorp wouldn't be perfect, but I feel the wing situation is in worst shape right now.
People are obsess with LHD. Wing and RHD is a much bigger problem going foward.
I'm also one of the few that still has hope for Juulsen really hope he can get his development back on track
I think the obsession with a LD is because Bergevin still haven't found anyone to replace Markov on the back end. Habs need a young puck moving Dman, because after Petry goes, that's going to become a real big issue, RD or LD I'm not picky lol
That's a pretty easy answer hehe, definitely future. I think going after Hall would be a now move, and going after guys like Poulin, Tuch, etc would be more future move although Tuch would help now. I'd put Danault with the future as that veteran center presence if he doesn't ask for too much. As for Tatar-Drouin-Domi-Armia, they're all filler pieces imo
Indeed because running Kulak and Chariot in a top 4 clearly works.
Still think that LHD is a big problem. We have nobody to rush the puck with. The only d-man that can push the puck and make plays is Petry.
I agree 100% with this, I really do think Habs have a pretty good prospect pool in terms of LD (I do think Norlinder will end up playing RD though), and with Bouchard in Laval, I have no doubt he'll get the most out of them.
I'm not sure tbh, he had a tough season, but he's beasting in the playoffs right now imo. If Bergevin could arrange a trade around Domi and some sweetner that would be great. I'm not sure what are the needs of Vegas though
I know we hear this so often but I really do think that this team only need a couple tweaks on the wings and patience for the young guys to develop before they become a real competitive team.
I meant more that we often hear "Just a few tweaks here and there and the team will be ready to compete", but I really think it's true this time. Never thought I'd actually believe in Bergevin's plan lol, let's hope he knows what he needs to do
I don't agree that defense is not a problem right now. Pittsburgh had multiple great occasions missed almost all of them and Price did magic against them . Also Philadelphia has been playing like the Rangers in 2017 and you can tell it's Vigneault. Philadelphia don't need to push the pace of the game because habs are just not doing anything. I watched all roundup games in the east and Philadelphia was playing much different against Boston/Washington/Tampa. Our team is so easy to play against in terms of shutting them down , teams barely need to force to make plays.
idk about that, he definitely failed his first attempt but maybe just maybe he learned from his mistakes. I would definitely understand if he get's fired, but his "build from the draft" ideology seems to be on track in this second attempt. The D future look promsing, the center line looks even more promising. If he can find some winger he might he able to build a real competitive team in a couple years. But yea I do understand that fans are fed up with him lol
