It's no wonder the Laval Rocket is so popular. Players like Logan Mailloux, Arber Xhekaj, and David Reinbacher are rare finds.

Analyst Marc-Olivier Beaudoin has projected the Canadiens' lineup for the 2025-26 season, including this year's first-round pick.

"The skeleton of the Canadiens in 2025-26 if Demidov/Lindstrom is the selection:

Slafkovsky-Suzuki-Demidov/Lindstrom
Caufield-Dach-X
Roy-Newhook-X
RHP-Beck-X

Matheson-Guhle
Hutson-Reinbacher
Xhekaj-Mailloux
Struble

Montembeault-Primeau

Obviously, it takes veterans to surround this young core. And ideally, Guhle would be moved to the left side." - Marc-Olivier Beaudoin

This becomes very interesting, and it doesn't yet include the next acquisitions by Kent Hughes. My intuition tells me there's too much smoke for there not to be a trade for a forward by the end of the summer.
