which new hab and which prospect are u most excited for this season?!
i'm honestly excited for a lot of the prospects and which ones might get extended looks in montreal vs. who's going to be sent down to laval for a bit vs. who is going back to juniors/overseas. i'm overall excited about both of those things because the rocket are gonna be a ton of fun to watch this year. it's also hard because a lot of the guys i'm excited about are left defenseman and we have so many lmao.
for defensemen i wanna see with montreal or laval: i am SUPER excited about guhle (i want him in montreal but if we're gonna develop him as a potential 2D to a more puck-moving guy i want him to get top pair minutes and he won't get that anywhere except for laval), harris (i think he's ready for 2nd or 3rd pair minutes right now), and xhekaj (pretty sure he won't be in mtl past the preseason but i do think he's gonna get some preseason looks, he is exactly what the rocket need right now anyway).
for the forward prospects who are turning pro, i am excited to see how slaf does although i actually do think he would especially benefit from some seasoning in laval (i know everyone expects 1OA to jump right into the nhl level and he's been playing against men but also he JUST turned 18 and definitely needs to work on some of his decision making and j-f houle seems like he's been doing a very good job with the young guns). i am super excited about mešár, although it looks like he could either be sent to the ohl (i think this is a mistake) or potentially the shl (byrnäs expressed interest and another team). he'll be harder to watch in the shl but that might be the best place for him if they don't want him in laval.
for guys who are definitely going back to juniors or college, i am most excited about my guys owen beck and lane hutson for obvious reasons.
i guess for new habs that are probably going to play with the team, i am excited to see what mike matheson can do as a petry replacement, and also to see how kirby dach fares under marty st-louis, since he specifically mentioned being excited to work with him.

"I've been able to get points and score goals for the team in recent games and that's what's expected of me in the National Team as well. I want to be a team leader and confirm the form I showed in the league(s)."
