Hockey Free For All

In Episode 21 Discussions include Nick Suzuki was the perfect choice for team Captain, his game has only improved, he has the perfect demeanor, personality and relational skills for the Montreal media.

The horrendous pre-judgement of the abilities and success that Cole Caufield, Arber Xhekaj, Jordan Harris, Kaiden Guhle, Juraj Slafkovsky, Kiby Dach and Jonathan Kovacevic will have as they have turned out to be exponentially inaccurate.

Mike Matheson, Joel Edmunson, David Savard, Chris Wideman and Jonathan Kovacevic should also share in the rotation of who sits out games, not just Xhekaj, Harris and maybe Guhle. Arber Xhekaj and Jordan Harris have been the best 2 defensemen in Montreal this year by far.

Episode 21 addresses the insane rumor about trading Jordan Harris for the sole reason that he will be a RFA at the end of this season, which makes zero sense.

If team MVP voting was held today, Arber Xhekaj is the undisputed choice, even above and beyond Nick Suzuki and Cole Caufield.

Looks like not only did Montreal Management know exactly what they were doing, but made the correct choice in drafting Juraj Slafkovsky at the 2022 draft, rather than selecting Shane Wright.

Discuss future prospect's such as Sean Farrell, Filip Mesar, Jan Mysak, Riley Kidney, Owen Beck, Joshua Roy, Lane Hutson, Vinzenz, Cedrick Guidon, Xavier Simoneau, Frederik Dichow, Jakob Dobes, Joe Vrbetic and Emmett Croteau.

Episode 21 addresses the insanity of trading players immediately just to trade them rather than to maximize their value and use to the organization.
