Indeed, several players have made great progress, notably Juraj Slafkovsky, Arber Xhekaj, and Jayden Struble.
With the arrival of several quality defensemen and another top 5 pick, not to mention the return of Kirby Dach and the possible acquisition of another promising forward through a trade, the team will be very different next year.
For the players and for owner Geoff Molson, the playoffs will be within reach. In fact, Slafkovsky made a promise to Anthony Martineau in January, and it could put him in an embarrassing situation.
Imagine Slaf with blond hair when the Canadiens make the playoffs! It promises to be a bit embarrassing for him, but we love it! Even more so if the other players decide to follow suit.
Remember, Carey Price had also done the same thing in junior.
