They just have to get in the lottery to have a chance, but next year have not lottery teams will be viciously tanking to have the chance to take him, like the Maple Leafs did when they had an all out tank and got Matthews. History teaches that tanking is well-rewarded, and those rewards are on the table again.
Go Habs Go!

Maintenant c'est le dossier Petry qu'il faut régler, ensuite celui de Price, après ce sera Drouin, Gallagher, peut-être même Anderson qui, à mon avis manque de constance, il est capable de faire la différence....quand ça lui tente. À 5.5 M je m'attendrais à un effort pas mal plus soutenu, il a tendance à s'endormir pendant 1-2 games, un peu comme Drouin.
Faut pas se leurrer, ça va prendre encore 3 saisons avant d'espèrer une formation qui peut prétendre aux grands honneurs. Mais en attendant ils peuvent offrir des bons flash au niveau du spectacle.
ESPN draft expert Greg Wyshynski is reporting that Montreal is grappling with selecting either Wright or Slavskovsky with the first pick and don't be shocked if the pick is Slavskovsky. It all comes down to how much support Slavskovsky will have in the Habs' "war room."
Wyshnyksi is also reporting that NHL GMs are deeply concerned about travel and military restrictions on young Russian players. Teams do not want to draft a young Russian, only to see him then drafted into the military and killed in Ukraine. That's not what they want! However the possibility of travel and military restrictions could cause some Russians to either fall in the draft or not get picked at all.
Tomorrow night things will get rolling right in Montreal!!!!

Slafkovsky or Wright: Who should Canadiens select with first overall pick? | Offside
From the moment the Canadiens won the first overall pick, Habs faithful have been arguing about which player their club should select.

at this point, when there iz no franchise player available its like a loteryToronto had the same dilemma in choosing Mathews or Laine in 2016, and they picked the right guy. Will Montreal also get it right?Slafkovsky or Wright: Who should Canadiens select with first overall pick? | Offside

Jupiter, I am being told that the NJ Devils desperately want the Slovakian kid, Stafkovsky, and are afraid Montreal will take him. NJ doesn't need a center and doesn't want Wright. I am advised NJ management has called Hughes and requested assurances that he will draft Wright and, absent such assurances, they have requested a trade whereby NJ and Montreal swap picks, with Montreal getting a low round draft pick, so that NJ can draft the Slovak kid #1.
It's been a while since i got excited like this for a draft. We draft first, and it's in our building. What's not to love. Next year would be better with Connor Bedard, there is no clear cut this year, but i guess that's what makes things exciting.
Slafkovsky is intriguing, but he got in the race late and could be a flash in the pan. He's big, a bit cocky, but to me could be a hit or a bust. Wright is more of a safe bet. Declared exceptional player at 15, seems more mature, plays center, i see less risk with him.
Personally i'm more Team Wright, but i'm sure i would enjoy both if they succeed. We'll see if Hugues and Gorton are willing to gamble.

If I were the Habs I'd secure the future of the franchise with the following #1 Pick in the 2022 Draft!!!...lol!
Very ballsy move from Hugues, I like it!Meet the newest Hab:
