Nikita Scherbak has had a weird path in the NHL. After becoming one of the Habs top prospects at the 2014 NHL Entry Draft, he was up and down in the AHL and the NHL before getting waived by the Montreal Canadiens. After his stint with the LA Kings, he made some comments on both the Habs and the Kings that got the public quite stirred up. However, a year removed from those comments and a somewhat lacklustre KHL season, Scherbak admits he was in the wrong.

Met him back when he played on saskatoon
He reminds me of Xaiver Laflamme
I wish he make his potential real man I was hyped for him
Good move for him to say things like that with TVA.
Says the are biased to Russians…. kovalchuk, Markov
Give him a tryout
1.8 , million for a 2 year contract( 900,000 a season ) I’d sign that all day long
Montreal could of got Brayden Point but got scherbak
People make mistakes in life and I believe in second chances. Perhaps being a father and such has helped him mature as a person. Good for him and I’m willing to see him in a more positive light.
He can bounce back like Radulov, or not
Honestly as a Habs fan if we had room in Laval i'd be willing to give him another chance to prove himself, he always seemed like a good kid who got lost at one point and couldnt handle the pressure, its all part of maturing into an adult lord knows the things i said in my early 20s are far from who I am now so i'm not mad at him, its about growth in the end and if he's in the right space its good for him.
Being a young up and coming NHL player in MTL can be lead to self destruction if not for the right support system there's a whole lot of temptations and he's certainly not the first and won't be the last who gets caught up, best of luck to him though!
i wish him the best
The few goals he scored with habs were pretty nice goals
He was a good player for us in Everett (WHL) but perhaps a little 'young' so some of his challenges are not from talent but maturity
the HABS are legendary 🙂 what a team even with the taxes being unreal they still a playoff team ! WOW unreal
eeehhh im drafted first round but I dont know what the habs want from me?? FIRST ROUND DUDE lol
in MTL we dont hate scherbak, people here are still crying about carey price 10M contract even if hes the best in the world lol
I love looking back at old draft classes but even I forgot about this guy lmao
Probably hard to crack the NHL when one doesn't do it within 5 years of graduating from the juniors.
Let's move on , to bigger goal's , lol ???
I don’t see the harm in giving him a league minimum contract.If he really wants a shot in the nhl he’ll take it, and who knows maybe we get a solid top 9 guy out of it
