Habs fan here. Just wondering with Patrick Roy coach, why wouldn't they draft Zack Fucale with their 2nd round pick. Beats me!
What I don't get is why they didn't draft Erne.
We drafted for need at 32. We took a goalie in the third round.
No, they drafted for BPA. If the Avs passed on Erne, with his junior coach running the show here, that probably says a lot about how Roy feels about him.What I don't get is why they didn't draft Erne.

Sorry but I don't know the Avs goalie prospects but could Zack Fucale become a franchise goalie. Craig Button stated that Fucale was the best 16-17 year old he ever saw in his life. And with Roy as coach it just makes a perfect fit. And also while watching the draft Patrick Roy looked alittle sad or down when the Avs selected Chris Bigras . It looked like he really wanted Fucale.

I know we had bigras rated highly but I could have sworn I heard pracey say that need was a factor at 32.
As a Habs fan I happy for you guys that you landed Patrick Roy as head coach.
I really respected Roy when he was with the Canadians.He will turn the Avs into a winner. But I just think they made a huge mistake passing on Zack Fucale.
I see it as the Avs Loss will become the Habs gain and I'm more than thrilled we dafted Zackery Fucale.
Maybe the Avs had Bigras ranked higher, I think it was Pracey who said they had him rated as a mid-1st round pick
The horse has been beaten to a bloody pulp over and over again about how the Avs have terrible defense blah blah so I don't know why it would seem like a question at all why the Avs took defense with their second pick especially after drafting MacKinnon. I can't imagine what the reaction and overall sentiment would have been if the Avs waited until the 3rd round or later to address the defense.
