The Canadiens didn’t draft Matvei Michkov, but they picked David Reinbacher, and that seems to be bothering a few fans on social media. Should we care? Probably not, but the supporters can on the other hand worry about the immediate future of the club, which does not seem very bright…
Jonathan Drouin is heading to Denver, and we think it’s a good move for just about everyone. On the other hand, did the Toronto Maple Leafs really make good decisions? So who are the winners and losers in this free agent market? We ask the question!

The Canadian will take the time to see what [Rafaël] Harvey-Pinard can do in the longer term and for Harvey-Pinard, it’s a great way to bet on himself and put himself in a good position to get a bigger contract in two years.

I like additions [des Maple Leafs de Toronto]. They did not go looking for players from top 6, they went to get some sandpaper. They are depth players.
