“When you’re losing, you want to give everything to your team to increase their chances (of winning). However, we have to remain patient and stick to our plan. We won’t do anything for the short-term at the expense of our long-term objectives.” – Kent Hughes yesterday

It’ll be interesting to see how he adjusts when the team is in win now mode and he has to be bold but for now, he’s making all the right moves.
Very smart. Im sure they’ll made big additions but the best time to do this, is in the summer. Let’s draft at the top again and make some additions. They will have 15 plus mill in cap space and a ton of draft capital.
I mean yeah obviously which is why MSL isn’t going anywhere either
Love you Kent!
He will make deals when the market for players opens and good deals are available
Goalies. Goalies Goalies Goalies. Please.
PREACH IT KENT
I wonder how this will go over with the Habs fans on Facebook.
It’s a slow burn and sometimes you just gotta wait out
When life slows down I’ll write my massive post but the fan base needs to remember. The cupboards were empty until 20-21, even then they only started getting filled.
This won’t be the NYR rebuild, with no Bread man magically landing in our lap.
This won’t be the Panthers rebuild where Tkachuk forces his way here and we pillage the greatest NHL farm team (the Buffalo Sabres) of Reinhart, Montour, etc..
This is going to take time and be full of ups and downs.
Just enjoy the ride, it could be worst
We could be the leafs.
All good but we are going to waste probably 40 goal season from Cole and a PPG season from Suzuki on finishing bottom 5.
Get rid of Dvo/Armia/Savard and audition the young D. Next year though the team needs more scoring depth 3 vet D and probably an upgrade in nets.
Lots of work for Hughes to do.
Fans need to STFU about demanding we pick up a goalie off wavers. Let Primeau start every game for the rest of the season and draft Schafer or Hagens in June.
Excellent. I’ve had enough of the short term fixes. If we’re still sitting in last 2 years from now, then we have something to be concerned about
just what i want to hear! so glad the FO isn’t making any panic moves and just sticking to the plan, if we get another top 5 pick so be it, it’ll be better for this team in the long run
Kent Hughes does the fleecing. He called around the league, other GM’s trying to fleece him. It’s as simple as that.
Short term we need a veteran backup goalie
That’s the right action. Hughes is the right guy for the job without question… the fan base and French media especially is unreasonable in Montreal…. And prob especially true bc there are no real French players on the team… so they want to rip it apart
It’s actually simpler than that:
What is the Habs’ revenue/profit each year?
And, how much higher would that revenue/profit be if they were a great team?
What? Almost no higher? Winning doesn’t gain them any more money than losing? They have *that many* fans? Like the Leafs?
