Pacquette is a 4th liner so it doesn't really help them that much. They also have 2 1sts, a 2nd and 3 3rds in next years draft. Plus a strong prospect pool and cap space. I think it’s likely they make a move. Bergevin has done very well on most of his trades. Lots of time before the season starts and I’m sure they’ve had feelers out all week Edited September 4, 2021 by qwijibo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weber struggled a lot in the regular season. Savard should be a decent replacement and Romanov is a year older. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should rebuild but they won’t. They were too close to not go all in. They’re pretty much trapped. That’s when bad decisions are made. See Canucks of 2014.

They don’t need to rebuild. They do need to deal with the holes this offseason has created though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better to rebuild. They don’t have that many prospects coming up. They need those picks. The worst thing they can do now is trade those picks for someone like Dvorak. Then the trade will essentially be Kotkaniemi for Dvorak. I don’t think the Habs win that deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their D is still very good. Their goaltending duo is top notch. If they can strengthen the C position they’re in good shape Edited September 4, 2021 by qwijibo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now they’re back in a tougher division with weak center depth. They will struggle hard to score. Anyone that thinks they’re making the playoffs is dreaming.

To much left to chance B ) they haven’t even been on the ice since they went to the cup final.

They we’re in the top of the league prior to their covid shutdown and having to play 24 games in 42 nights. They were injured and running on fumes. I do think they’ll need a great season to make the playoffs, but that’s a function of how good the Atlantic division is, not that the team is weak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They got hot and had players have career years. To think that will continue is naive. They just don’t have the depth. And the division their in will determine where they finish, you can’t separate the two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Canadiens will not match the Hurricanes' offer sheet to Jesperi Kotkaniemi.
