  1. The fact that Nazar is not on this guys list is a joke. He knows nothing

  2. – Can I play in the NHL?
    – Hm, it depends .. what's your name?
    – Connor Whatever.
    – Connor?? Wow … Yes!

    🤔😜

  3. You can't pass up on Wright even if he sucked this past year(which he didn't) his potential is off the charts.

  4. Think it’s because the Habs got 1st overall we are hearing: they aren’t going to draft Wright…like c’mon what’s going on here lol

  5. People calling Wright a bust HAVE NO HOCKEY KNOWLEDGE! What makes a bust? A bad coach, development system and a lack of having fun playing the game. Shane Wright is a perfect fit in MTL. Say Suzuki is the new captain (we will find out next year if he is, but I am just supposing) Wright would have an amazing young leader model to follow, playing with one of the best teaching coach in a great market in which HE WOULD LOVE TO PLAY IN! He has an amazing skill set, give him the surroundings and I have no problem seeing him as an amazing Top 6 Center.

  6. To Montreal: Columbus 1st round 12th pick (Montreal drafts Savoie)

    To Columbus: Montreal's late round 1st pick
    2nd round pick
    3rd round pick
    High end prospect such as Logan Mailloux,

  7. Reminds me of Towes. Once considered the second best player in the NHL before all the illnesses. Not flashy but does it all.

  8. So… you didn’t answer the question of the title. Shouldn’t this video be about the top 5 prospects and if you think MTL might pass up on Wright and if so, for who and why?

  9. Wright is not a very dynamic player and he's not at 100% all time, he's so intelligent that he can manage his game to give the minimum effort and push when its absolutely necessary, I can tell you that he's ALREADY under Montréal media watch, he will be crushed under the Montreal media pressure as did many young prospects (almost all of them) rushed too soon in the NHL, especially if he is not giving is 110%. Its not a good thing for him to be drafted by canadiens, dont tell me Gorton will change everything, he wasn't better to develop youngters in New York.

  10. Wright's gonna be the RNH of this draft. Guy's got a very solid game for an 18 year old. Thing is you draft on potential, not floor. I see Nazar, Slovak 1-2, Savoie and Cooley all being easily better. You can even argue the Swede centre might have a higher ceiling offensively. The fins imo are overrated but Kemell looks to be a potential 40 goal scorer. The Czech gives me major boom or bust vibes, but still, looks like a higher ceiling than this RNH/Hiscier/Nolan Patrick cuck

  11. Imagine if we get michkov or bedard next year too.. lol "yeah bedard we're gonna need you to play wing with Suzuki and Caufield…"

  12. Shane Wright is a natural center, I think the best one to come out since Matthews. He does the little things you want a center to do. He's so good at positioning himself, he's on the counter, converts defense to offense very well with his lead pass and seemingly always makes the high IQ play. Strong skater, ideal size and strength, deadly release with the wrist shot, good on the faceoff. Sure he doesn't have the high end 1vs1 someone like Hughes had coming out but I have no doubts he'll be a very good player. He has some Bergeron and Lindholm like effect on the game. You want a guy like Wright in the playoffs when the game gets more physical and condensed. 1-2 punch with Suzuki forming a strong 2 way center core. Montreal is still in a rebuild phase, they can get a skilled winger or D-man next year

  13. Man, lambert is gonna be a absolute steal for whoever gets him. People seem to forget how good he is

  14. Draft is shaping up very nicely. IMO, there are 7 guys (besides Wright) who could be legit top 5 pics and at least 12 guys who could be legit top 10 picks.

  15. World juniors needs to happen before the draft for the scouts can take one last look
