With the season fast approaching, we’re looking to add some writers to our team for the upcoming season. If you have a passion for the Habs and are looking for an outlet to write about them, we’d like to hear from you.
The Habs have been very quiet so far in free agency with their lone pickup being someone who many think is heading for Laval. While most big names are off the board, there are a handful of forwards left who could fit a minor role in Montreal.
There have been plenty of interesting drafts for the Habs in recent years and the upcoming one should be no exception with a chance to get another core piece for the future.
Cayden Lindstrom battled some injuries this season but when he was healthy, he was an impactful big centre, the type of player that doesn’t come around too often. As a result, he’s someone the Habs will certainly be considering if he’s available with the fifth pick next week.
Since the year 2000, there have only been four players that have scored 50+ goals and 110+ points in their draft year: Sidney Crosby, Patrick Kane, Connor Bedard, and Berkly Catton. Accordingly, Catton is someone the Habs should be considering with the fifth-overall pick this month.
The second round is now in full swing with Dallas securing the final spot after beating Vegas on Sunday. Now that all series are set, our writers make their picks for the remaining series.
The second day of the 2024 NHL playoffs has arrived and the HabsWorld writers made their prognostications on who will advance to the next round. These series begin April 21st and 22nd.
This year’s playoffs are upon us, and the HabsWorld writers gave their predictions on the first-round series. This is the first part covering all games starting April 20th.
Successful teams often have proven track records of finding quality NHL talent after the first round. There will be some quality players still left on the board after Wednesday’s first round and Montreal should have a shot at getting a couple from this group.
With a pick late in the first round and early in the second round, the Habs could have an opportunity to nab two players from this group of our 2023 draft rankings.
