Take a listen to episode 88 of the hockey free for all podcast
#1. What’s with all of the people that are absolutely obsessed with the belief that Montreal is either readying for, or must package all their draft capital or mortgage the organizations future and trade it all away all for a determined league star or some big name?
#2. Conner McDavid himself, is not even remotely going to be enough to make Montreal a serious contender to win the Stanley Cup.
#3. Conner McDavid has more talent around him in Edmonton, and he has not won a Stanley Cup in Edmonton yet!
#4. This is yet another problem created by instant gratification, me/me/me, its all about me, I’m that that important, and it what I want. Who lied to these people causing them to believe that they are relevant in any way, shape or form?
Why is this not understood extremely clearly? There are apparently people thinking that the rebuild is taking longer than they want it to or is not going as quickly as they want it to. Your convenience, impatience or personal wants do not matter even remotely. No one is owed anything.
#5. Why is all of this misguided attention, not focused on trade’s involving NHL roster players such as, Josh Anderson, Christian Dvorak, Jake Evens, Tanner Person, Joel Armia, Jesse Ylonen, Rapheal Harvey-Pinard, David Savard, Mike Matheson or Jake Allen. Or prospects such as Rhett Pitlick, Mattias Norlander, Jacob Olofsson, Alexander Gordin, Blake Biondi, Jack Smith, Jan Mysak, Luke Touch. Daniil Sobolev, Dmitri Kostenko, Oliver Kapanen, Miguel Torigny, Petteri Nurmi, Cedrick Guidon, Vinzenz Rohrer, Luke Mittelstadt, Filip Eriksson, Sam Harris and Quentin Miller, who there will like not be room for, and should not be lost for nothing.
#6. How is there anyone out there that can still even remotely question Jeff Gorton or Kent Hughes as everything they have touched or been involved in, has turned to gold for the organization?
#7. There is absolutely a zero need for the Montreal Canadiens to experiment with Alex Newhook as a center. Alax Newhook is not a center in the NHL and that is extremely clear and already proven. Alex Newhook is Kirby Dachs right winger and will be very successful in the NHL at that position on a line with Dach.
