The Habs also have Fichaud and Michaud in Hamilton. Beauchemin is on the depth chart in Dyment’s place, and Archer is another OHL junior prospect on D. Duncan Milroy is one to watch, mark my words, he has the potential to be a really good two-way third line right winger, who will one day average 20-25 goals and 50-60 points, plus he’ll rack up over a hundred PM and hopefully be a plus player. Michael Ryder, Marcel Hossa and Jason Ward will also contribute. Ward will finally be a player- I look for 65 GP, 15 goals, and hopefully 40 something points and over a hundred PM.

Hossa needs to become a reliable second line winger, who plays 15 minutes, gets 25-30 goals and 50-60 points. He needs to consistently apply himself to his work.

Really, Montreal looks better because Gainey, Savard, Gauthier, Madden and Timmins are a great scouting team, and no one will slack with old number 23 in charge. Remember the ’79 playoffs when Gainey was MVP against the Rangers? Two separated shoulders, and still he was able to put away the Rangers. The “Right Stuff”, and here’s hoping it rubs off on the Habs.

There’s nothing I can add to that, except perhaps that now we know why China limits childbirth, and why they are edging closer to enforced eugenics.

Seriously though, good article. But as others have mentioned, I would not trade Theo – i do believe he is going to be a great goalie. And I’d love to see Carbo back on the staff, but as assistant to Julien. And get rid of that moron Charon!

As for players I’d like to see moved – Breeze, Traverse, Lindsay, Dackell, Dykhuis – I agree with them all – but easier said than done.

As I said, the problem with the D can be solved by replacing Charon with Carbo (or even Robinson if Carbo is unwilling to return).

That is why Boivin said that they will not trade him. This loansharking episode is a blessing in disguise. Savard made a big boo boo when signing Theo to that large lengthly contract, this is our way outl.

Potvin might be finished but he can carry the mail until Garon flourishes. With the savings of Theo’s 5-6 million a year and Breeze-By’s 4.3 a year…..just imagine what Gainey could do with the extra 10 million. I’m a betting man, and I say that Gainey would be able to get much more for the 10 million than Thoe and Breezy. Patrick Reverse would be good to dump as well, but just to get him off the ice.
