So, the @CanadiensMTL had top-5 players in the league at every position this season.

Nick Suzuki, C, age 25
Cole Caufield, W, age 24
Lane Hutson, D, age 21

Then you add:

Juraj Slafkovský, 73 pts, age 21
Ivan Demidov, 62 pts, age 19
Jakub Dobeš, 29-10-4, age 24

Plus 4 prospects who’d likely be lottery picks in redrafts.

Michael Hage, 20
Alexander Zharovsky, 19
David Reinbacher, 21
Jacob Fowler, 21

Team-friendly deals. Cap space.

They just went to the Conference Final as the youngest team in the NHL while playing the two most exciting series of the playoffs before the Cup Final.

Not sure people realize how ridiculous Montréal’s outlook is.

Can’t wait to see how management shapes this team over the next decade.

Habs were giving up the farm for a top-6 winger, keeping only Hage because he’s actually the 2C everyone assumed they’d try to score this summer. Won’t happen. Hage is obviously their guy. #GoHabsGo

[PM Perron @PMPerron]

#Habs can trade for a good contract next summer.

2027-2028, EVERYTHING is possible.

#GoHabsGo

[PM Perron @PMPerron]

@ssb_finesse @Rejcaj @ReclinerSports4 @CanadiensMTL Stop making sense.

[PM Perron @PMPerron]

Can’t wait for the #Habs to announce Anton Lundell for Oliver Kapanen ++. @CanadiensMTL #GoHabsGo

[PM Perron @PMPerron]

@IvanDemidovGoat @ReclinerSports4 @CanadiensMTL Wishful thinking of course.

[PM Perron @PMPerron]

I say let’s go my friend!! Shoulder seems fine. Solid top-4 D. Underlying numbers aren’t great but you know, NYR. No bias. 😉

[PM Perron @PMPerron]

@FanMontanaro Yeah just having fun. Could make some kinda sense though.

[PM Perron @PMPerron]

@Rejcaj @ReclinerSports4 @CanadiensMTL 5M million for a C3 isn’t cheap, especially when you’re paying Barkov-Bennett 18M until 2030. Kapanen is a good, cheaper option. The ++ is important. They could free up cap soace and get some good assets in return.

[Serge B. 🍷⚖️🇮🇱 @stock_guy1]

@ChaissonSpencer What about getting Schneider from the NYR? What say you @PMPerron

Hutson Guhle Matheson Dobson Schneider Reinbacher in a year or so?

[PM Perron @PMPerron]

@Olihazbro @CanadiensMTL There’s been rumblings, but I honestly don’t know.

[PM Perron @PMPerron]

Dobes has a better win percentage (.780) than the Colorado Avalanche (.764). #GoHabsGo

[PM Perron @PMPerron]

L’uniforme des Nordiques est le plus beau de la ligue. Mais, que Colorado le porte comme si de rien n’était, c’est criminel. #Nordiques

[PM Perron @PMPerron]

@Angst79799255 Sounds like the lesser evil for now.

[PM Perron @PMPerron]

@lagwagon1979 From what I gather, I wouldn’t count on David Reinbacher becoming a true top-4 RHD any time soon. He still looks a long way off, and expecting near-term impact probably sets the bar unrealistically high.
