Montreal Canadiens: Way Too Early Predictions for Habs Offseason
Habs Draft Shane Wright.
Okay, let’s start with the obvious. The Canadiens were lucky to win the first overall pick and they will use it to select Shane Wright, who is the best prospect available in this year’s draft.
They are not going to step up to the podium in front of their local fans and announce a big surprise. Everyone has Wright ranked first and the Habs will make the right call and should be excited that they are able to land such a player.
The Canadiens obviously need a bit of a rebuild here. Starting with Nick Suzuki and Shane Wright down the middle is putting them in a great place to succeed in the future.

Sure, Juraj Slafkovky might fit better on the top line with Suzuki and Cole Caufield. Simon Nemec or David Jiricek would give them great depth on right defence with Logan Mailloux and Justin Barron and Logan Cooley would add a nice dash of skill and sizzle, but the right pick is Wright and the Canadiens will officially begin their offseason by selecting him.
