I can confirm this now. ✅
Reilly Walsh will sign with #GoHabsGo

Not certain on terms yet, but look for a one-year, two-way deal.

I think of this tweet once a quarter.

Zharovsky showcases interesting hands here #GoHabsGo #THN @thehockeynews

Adjusting for cap inflation, the Demidov contract is actually insane.

[Rory @WSpy]

@Monctonscout Yeah, I don't think he'd light the world on fire, but a nice bottom 6 option that can play up and down the lineup when needed, like an Anderson

[Rory @WSpy]

Puljujarvi is an interesting option. His hip issues are apparently a thing of the past and he's completely rebuilt his skating mechanics. Still only 28 and just had a monster season in the Swiss league. 52pts in 52gp. 6'4 216lbs, good skater. Probably comes cheap.

Gleb Pugachyov (#93) vs. Loko Yaroslavl
📅 2026.04.30 (Kharlamov Cup Semi-Final)

A little bit of everything: power, skill, power, shot, downhill skating. One of the nastiest assists of the playoffs. Took a lot to cut this down to 2:20.

The Habs freed up 3 million in cap space while giving up nothing. Really not understanding the frustration with the lack of assets coming back. You're lucky to not have to pay to give up a contract this bad. Big win for the Habs.

Les vendeurs de rêve avec leurs écoles de hockey qui travaillent sur des outils spectaculaires mais qui oublient la base. Quand tu construit le toit avant la fondation...ça te rattrape.

Les organisations de hockey mineur qui poussent leurs jeunes à jouer 12 mois par année. Tu viens pas au camp tu peux pas faire le club.... on entend ça souvent.

Tout le monde est un AAA...le talent est trop éparpillé pour moi. Mon fils est aaa espoir de l'espoirs des espoirs pour être l'espoir de la liste d'espoirs du AAA....

Les compagnies qui vendent des bâtons à 400$ quand ça change absolument rien pour un kid de 8 ans. Ils font partie du problème côté prix pour jouer au hockey.

Et .... est-ce que les arénas et leurs parents sont vraiment un endroit pour s'épanouir si tu es un jeune?! J'en doute...

Il y a bien certainement 100 autres points mais je vais commencer là. 🤓

#GoHabsGo very early in the year I was really high on Brayden Klimpke. He immediately reminded me of a cheaper version of Tanner Molendyk. Effortless skater. One of the best D in zone-entries you could find in this draft. He does have a little edge to his game to. Love to throw the old hip check every now and then.
His defensive plays had a lot of highs and a lot of lows too.
I've watched him 14 times, last game being in january (watched him a ton early on)

I have taken 188 clips during my viewings, maybe I'll put them all together for you to see ;)

Brayden Klimpke, ma quote sur lui dans notre guide de TSLH:

[Derek Neumeier @Derek_N_NHL]

Timofei Runtso is one of the most intriguing re-entry prospects available for the 2026 draft

The Victoria Royals defender is tall, lanky, and shows impressive flashes of offensive pop. Sometimes he looks like a baby giraffe on skates, but if that improves, watch out

Some clips:

Little Runtso highlight reel for the #GoHabsGo fan who don’t know this kid.

[Steve @PardonMyRatio]

Fans going after Hughes for not making a move yet are ridiculous. Just look at his track record since 2022 - Dach, Newhook, Matheson, Dobson, Bolduc, etc. He'll get something big done. Only a matter of time.

[Mark Edwards @MarkEdwardsHP]

Mentioned on our live stream last night that I thought Pugachyov was a great fit for the #Habs but I didn’t expect him to slide out of the top 20. Once he did, the Habs obviously got ready to pounce. So hard to find these nasty SOB’s these days- kid is big, mean and has skill.

A dream come true for Jaxon Cover 🥲

[Mark Doherty @MD_scouting]

Gleb Pugachyov's season has come to an end, and he recently found himself ranked 14 on Pronman's list. A high motor, heavy-hitting power forward with a solid 2-way game.
The best hitter in the #2026NHLDraft. Here's 2:30 of Gleb crushing dudes. enjoy

Gleb Pugachyov is an EXCELLENT pick by the Habs at 26 and good for them for trading up. 14th on my list. A true, throw-back punishing power-forward that honed his individual skills (especially his playmaking) throughout the year. Clear case of BPA.
Here's my Scouting Report on him
