Gino Reda: “You mentioned Hutson, the Habs top line, and Suzuki, Caufield, Slafkovsky, and it looks really solid. Demidov looks like he has a lot of room for upside. Where should HabsManagemant plug the holes and upgrade the offseason to make this young player a better shot to compete for the competition?

Lalonde: “I immediately looked at the second line, especially the 2C. It was the topic of conversation for the last few seasons. That top line was great, Slafkovsky, Caulfield and Nick Suzuki.

Kirby Dach’s name was proposed again today. His season is about to end with an injury. So now, Dach has played 59 games for the Canadians over the past two seasons. Jeff Gordon did mention that there is definitely a Kirby Dach position on the team this season, but it depends on his position. This off-season will be an upward climb for him, recovering from speed. It sounds like Kirby Dach will need a big training camp to get into the season to show his place in this roster.

I also asked Kent Hughes how big it would be when he thought about this summer, this offseason. He returned a few seasons ago, where he talked about the importance of the summer of 2024, which will be a big time for this team and how the 2025 season will be bigger. He said, I must think that statement remains true again.

Jeff Gorton mentioned Kent Hughes, who always opened their eyes to athletes and to those who could join the team, but it had to be appropriate. Have a conversation about size. Discussions about the level of competition, if they do find the puzzles they are going to bring to join the group, that is indeed the basic attribute the management team wants. The level of competition must be there.
