  • Did you know?
  • The Habs may not have the highest payroll in the league, but they are leading all teams in the number of $5 million or higher-paid players in the NHL. No fewer than 6 players (Gomez, Cammalleri, Markov, Hamrlik, Gionta, and Plekanec) make at least $5M. The Rangers are second with 5 players in that category.

 Scouting Report

Strengths:

Pure playmaker, excellent vision with very good speed to the outside. He has a reputation as a go to guy because of his creativity, leadership and feistiness.
 

Weaknesses:

Physical games are not something he does well in. Without high end triggermen this talented playmaker's skill are all but wasted. Needs to be more consistent and dominate games on his own. 

Projected Role:

1st line
