BigTed3 Posted July 10, 2022 Report Share Posted July 10, 2022 11 minutes ago, claremont said: I have an uneasiness on the moves including Dach, but I am willing to give the "two heads better than one" some preliminary support. I do like the synergistic touch that they aligned RW - Filip Mesar perhaps by accident as a development colleague for LW- Slafkovsky - two slovaks better than one part Deux. I was high on Centre - Owen Beck's skating is a positive - Having another centre beyond Riley Kidney (smallish but good vision) in the prospect pool is not a bad thing as we don't have many development centres. Mysak is listed as a Centre but in junior plays mostly wing. I hope we can land a top centre in the 2023 draft. To make things even more interesting for you, there's a Slovakian center named Dalibor Dvorsky who is a 6'1" scoring whiz playing in Sweden right now. He's on track to be a top 10 but not top 3 pick as we stand. Could be someone who's available for the Habs to add in a year to make a full Slovakian trio.

campabee82 Posted July 10, 2022 Report Share Posted July 10, 2022 This may be one of the biggest issues Hughes had with Wright. https://www.thescore.com/nhl/news/2384041 He flat out lies, he totally stated down the Habs table. Not once but twice. That could just be the tip of the iceberg for all we know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't care that he glared at Hughes or whoever, just don't sit there and lie about it, own it, it was your right to be pissed off. If there is one thing I hate most about people it is their lack of integrity. He was pissed the evidence is right there on video, own it, use it as motivation if you want, just don't try speading the BS that you weren't glaring at the Habs cause you were and the whole planet knows it.

The kid has a chip on his shoulder bigger than Everest. It came out in his interviews and other ways. He didn't just drop from 1st overall .. he slipped to 4th. I can understand the devils passing on him as they technically have two young Cs in Hughes and Nico. But Arizona passed on him as well and drafted a different C. Wright's exceptional status went to his head and having watched a lot of clips on him he's Bergeron Lite at best. The top 5-10 guys drafted are all fairly close in talent and this was at best a weak draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
