I would do that trade in a minute. I wouldn't even protect the top 10 pick. If the Habs finish in the lower ten with Laine - Dock and Zegras in their line up, a top ten pick next year isn't going to help. I keep imagining what this team would look like with Michkov in the lineup. Zegras is no Michkov but a hell of lot closer than a Reinbacher.
Michkov had virtually no chance of being picked by Montreal. He was never going to be a Hab, period. So stop inventing unlikely scenarios in your head. It's bad for your mental health and bloody annoying for the rest of us. Move on.
You cant just win with only attackers you need defense to win you cant trade away any defensemen any time theres a problem the kid is 19 years old hes not a bust let him time to heal and come back he might not be a michkov but its better to have a boring defencemen then to dont have one at all
Heck ya right now baby!!!!!!!Just make sure he accepts a long term contract and he will!!!!! With what's coming in the next years especially he will probably have a new partner playing with Demidov come on who would not like that FOR SURE HE WOULD BE EXCITED ABOUT THAT ~ he will sign and we will all go nuts 》it will be paradise SO YA no question please God make this happen ❤❤❤ I would love my Canadiens ❤❤❤
This would be a mistake by the habs , we need a right handed dman , we don’t need a soft small forward we have enough star power to fill 3 lines in a year or 2 he wouldn’t make the team any better in the future it’s not make us better right now which we don’t care about cuz we’re a long way from winning still
This would be a panic move. Trading for Zegras lost most of its appeal when they acquired Laine and he'll be back in the game in early January at the latest. Reinbacher is only 19 and instead of being a regular NHL top 2/top 4 D at 21, he'll be there at 22-23 instead... which is the average age for a defensement to be league ready so no worries there either. So, it is a BIG NO for me.
Hoe do we know Laine wont struggle coming back. Look how that knee problem with Price ended... They got a second opinion cuz they didn't like the first one. Let's relax and hope he can come back 100% and do well.
