Thats why I say TT took a great talent. But in the grand scheme of things the habs would of been better off trading down grabbing Kopi and Quick/Bishop. The trading down part goes hand in hand with the whole 9 teams skipping him.
Price is great, but outside of his 1 heart/Vezna season is there really anything he has done that a Quick/Rask/Bishop couldn't have?
TT got the right talent. But looking at that draft there were 3 goalies and 1 center available that would of made a lot more sense overall. If someone was an amazing scout they would of seen this. An average scout wouldn't have. Sure if we drafted Brule and didn't pick up Bishop/Quick in the 3rd round it would of been an epic fail along the lines of 04/06 so I have to give TT credit for selecting an amazing talent. BPA for sure.
But in the grand scheme of things, and this teams need for Centers, I put this up there with 06 and missing Giroux and 10 missing Kuznetsov.
Price on another team would be treated like an all star by Habs fans. We got a great goalie here, enjoy him! Put Rask/Quick/Bishop in his place here, you sure it’s a success?
Talking about Quick and Bishop like you know how good they were going to be
They were gambles then and nobody would have predicted their career. Even Bishop took years to develop
An amazing scout would have seen this? Yeah sure all 30 teams are idiots by passing Quick and Bishop so many rounds
I hate when so called fans say things like that, like the draft is an exact science
