Blast from the past



I found an old copy of the Hockey News from 2015 listing Montreal's best prospects. Who the heck are these guys?

    Fuck. Out of curiosity l, how would you guys rank these with the benefit on hindsight?

    > Who the heck are these guys?

    Trust me you don’t want to know

    I remember being pretty high on Reway for a hot minute.

    But THIS time it’s different 😂

    Love our current prospects but some of them will end up Scherbaked, Fucaled or De La Rosed. That’s just how development goes.

    Edit: Of course I’m not comparing a player picked 26 to one picked 5OA. I remember Beaulieu first camp and how everyone thought he was the steal of the draft lol or Norrislinder or not so long ago Josh Brook. I’ve just learned to tamper my expectations until they’re in the show.

  5. the team was making playoff each year, it was not supposed to rebuild and get top prospoect.

    Reway used to be so talented….crazy how his carrier end up

  7. uchihastar

    Martin reway was going to be a star but got unlucky im convinced

    A reminder that habs fans were quite high on a lot of players listed.

  9. bcgrappler

    Highest pick here is 22.

    It would be like having Mesar as our best pick.

    Yuck

    Noah Juulsen had real good potential, injuries ruined him….

    TBF, Juulsen made a comeback with Vancouver recently. Kudos to him.

    Thank goodness Kent Hughes is in charge now.

    I’m Eskimo bros with Mike Condon. She was cute too.

  13. Peckerhead321

    Shea Theodore over McCaron

    Adrian Kempe over Scherbek

    Sebastian Aho over Juulsen

    Evgeny Kuznetsov over Tinordi

    Big misses

    A lot of these guys are late first round picks. That was what I hated the most about the last regime. Never doing bad enough to get top 10 picks, but not using late first round picks as trade chips to get better. Instead used them to draft garbage.
    Meddled in mediocrity for far too long

    This is why I don’t let myself get too excited about prospects

  16. Habsfan_76_27

    This is why people gotta relax looking at our current prospect pool.

  17. de la rose: most “meh” player you could imagine, could be out of the team and nobody would notice

    scherbak: big yikes

    fucale: an echl/ahl goalie, now in the khl

    juulsen: could have been a solid d-man if not for the multiple injuries.

    tinordi: depth d-man at best

    mccarron: 4th liner at best

    reway: had potential, but not good enough for the north-american game

    andrighetto: nhl/ahl tweener, now plays in the swiss league

    hudon: a great top-6 forward… in the ahl

    condon: was actually a decent backu goalie, but he was under too much pressure when price got injured.
